Who ungreyed the troll. STOP DOING THAT.

...aaand it’s not all about you

You really don’t understand how her having the power and authority to decide when and where people can see her naked (or not) vs. having some photos stolen from her and shared with the world is empowering?

Rape is still rape when the woman has had lots of consensual sex before. She could even have had lots of sex with you before, but the one time you forced yourself on her without her consent, it was still rape. That’s true of physical assault too. Say you dated Ronda Rousey. She’s taken many punches in her line of

I know at least one transgender woman personally who is 100% for the Republican party no matter what. Why? Essentially for three reasons: 1) She passes well, 2) she’s secure in her career, and 3) she makes a lot of money. So she doesn’t really worry about being attacked, isn’t likely to be fired or made homeless, and

The conflating pro choice with “pro abortion” irks me too.

Those people need to watch The Wind that Shakes the Barley.

I think they do, which is just hilariously stupid. Other whites considered my ancestors subhuman and caricaturized them as being ape-like to justify their oppression. One of the most ironic and idiotic things I’ve seen recently is an Irish chapter of one of those White Identitarian groups hanging a racist poster over

It’s a classic move by the right - claim they’re reasonable and just want to meet in the middle, then demand the other side do all the moving. “We’d join feminist movements if they’d just agree to hate women a little bit more.”

If Caitlyn Jenner has proved everything, she has proved that transitioning to your correct gender does not transition you from being an obtuse asshole. It’s much harder to stop being an asshole than it is for some transpeople to become their correct gender.

Oh, look! She was escorted out of CPAC by security:

You want something really surreal?

“You cannot be anti choice and feminist. Period.”

Iiiiiiiinnnnteresting. I wonder if Ms Charen is struggling with a sunk cost fallacy. It’s clear her level-headed recognition of GOP hypocrisy surrounding sexual assailants isn’t welcome, not even at a panel expressly about conservative women’s reflections on their place within #MeToo! But she’s also built a name for

The “#UsToo: Left Out by the Left”

“Throughout the first half of the event the panelists talked about Planned Parenthood, complained that anti-abortion women had been ostracized by the Women’s March and had feminism stolen from them.”

Goddamnit. Can’t these women see that even while toeing the party line and using sound bites pre-approved by “their side” that these men don’t give a shit about them? It was so uncomfortable even reading this account that I cannot bring myself to watch it (as someone who has been heckled in crowds before). Also, that

I had nothing better to do.

I’m kind of surprised they rate Japanese as bring as difficult to learn as Chinese. In my experience, Japanese is significantly easier to learn for an English speaker. Mandarin has sounds which are difficult for English ears to differentiate and English tongues to pronounce. Plus there’s all the tonal variability.

For those of us that can't read people well, such actions could result in a severe creepy factor - especially if you don't pick up on cues they give after saying so.
