This makes me sick to my stomach. :| So many times the interpretations behind body language are misconstrued and more times than likely wrong. This is why victims often ask what they did to deserve rape and refer to their actions instead of in a karmic sense.

Yeah - I’ve heard really funny rape jokes. Where I have surprised myself by my laughter, because I am so entertained.

I totally get that. However, George Carlin’s “imagine Porky Pig raping Elmer Fudd” is definitely a rape joke, yet elicits cackles from me, and I am a rape survivor. Perhaps it’s because of the ludicrousness of it.

BMI is a system used to evaluate health not physical appearance. Overweight on BMI is overweight medically. Suggesting your dietary and lifestyle choices are negatively affecting your health. If you feel physically attractive then that’s fine. But if your BMI indicates a classification of “overweight” it suggests a…

Jesus fucking christ, not everything is misogynistic. Sometimes people want to read articles about fucking technology on a technology blog, not ideal women forms by locale. This has fucking -nothing- to do with technology. It would fit much better on Jezebel.

That isn’t misogyny, it’s common fucking sense.

Keira Knightley is British.

Lifehacker and FoxtrotAlpha hide in the corner, hoping the others don’t notice them.

Kinja has always been Jezebel & Friends.

Gizmodo has officially become Jezebel 2.

Is your point that anyone who disagrees with this or you has to be some ideologically abhorrent cretin? I tend to find both sexes guilty of misidentifying intentions just as badly as the other. People look at friendliness with skepticism and a mask for ulterior motives.

What you say makes sense in itself. The problem is that it’s not remotely relevant to this article or my comment. Firstly, you gotta be having a laugh implying that this article in any way constitutes “statistical evidence”. It’s entirely anecdotal. There’s no attempt to give evidence. Obviously the men who approach…

thank you - this needed to be said badly. Then again, this is gawker media. Ridiculously biased. I have had many an encounter when I was simply striking up standard conversation with no intent on “taking them home” or asking them out when they thought I was trying to hit on them. If at all possible, refrain from…

I’m filing a title IX claim against you! For Feminism! Every true Feminist knows not to sterotype comment sections

Ooh real mature. This WAS a blanket statement though. Hey Men: Why do you?... Vs Hey Women: Why do you?... seems to yield a different, polar opposite reaction. I’m NOT an MRA, but damn, this is why some people think feminism is so vitriolic.

Mhm. You just completely failed to form any kind of cogent response. I hope you’re proud — you certainly seem like it, anyway.

But the article made a statement about all men. Why, in your brain, is it a somehow invalid or pathetic response to criticise a blanket statement?

the jez headlines have been really off lately.

I’d say a rightfully freaked out parent! A burn that is so bad that it blisters can be very serious (said the pasty Irishman.)

Agreed.The words “legitimately terrible” and “booboos” don’t usually go hand in hand.

Although it sounds like the result of some freaked-out parent being annoying, these sunburns are legitimately terrible.
