It reminds me very much of the “Well I’m personally just fine with it, therefore it isn’t a problem for anyone” blanket statements. It’s pretty myopic at best.

Having experienced both a burst ovarian cyst and a rape, I wouldn’t consider them to be comparable experiences. And I resent the fuck out of the idea that because I or other women have gone through X, I should be totally down with any jokes about Y. Maybe some people can. Others can’t and shouldn’t have to.

ATTENTION WHITE SISTREN: BLACK MEN DO NOT OWE YOU THEIR ATTENTIONS, SEXUAL OR OTHERWISE. PLEASE BE RESPECTFUL OF THEIR BODILY AUTONOMY, ESPECIALLY GIVEN HISTORICAL DENIAL OF SAID BY YOUR FUCKING PEOPLE.

Oh, so we don’t have to fight stupid, victim-blaming, punching-down rape jokes in comedy anymore (and Lindy’s book comes to mind in doing its share of that work) because we’re “so strong” and “queens”? So victims (and any human being with a modicum of decency) don’t need to fight for the right to be viewed as humans?…

Aw, good. I’m very glad to hear that!

I was with him from birth until he was going on eight, in second grade. And I made having access to him part of my exit plan. We were just texting last weekend. I left my job, not my kid.

I don’t even think Kourtney is strict? That show isn’t appropriate for people under 12-13, moreso for the kids related to them who might get legit distressed by the manufactured drama.

And FWIW, the effect is not always permanent. More and more patients are finding that, even without weight gain, they are diabetic again

I havr a friend who looks like ariana and does the same thing. We are in out fucking thirties. You dont have to wear white knee highs and mary janes to work.

I have this issue with Selena Gomez. Anytime a guy says he finds her attractive, I have to stop myself from thinking, okay, cool, you’re a closeted pedophile. She’s obviously an adult, not an infant, and she probably has a perfectly active and healthy sex life. But still.

Oh lovely, this is the first I’ve read about Chris Brown fans blaming the woman who called police. They would, wouldn’t they?

I have a comment likely to get lost in the greys, so I figured I’d post it here:

Hang on, I need to lay down before my rage stroke incapacitates me.

Between Labrie, Turner and other “promising” young men who are able to get away with reduced sentences, I wonder why no one seems to care about the promising young women whose lives may be irrevocably altered by the actions of these assholes.

Apparently the $100K+ defense Labrie got that tore this child apart on the stand and got her rapist off with barely a slap on the wrist? In large part funded by alumni and donors to the school.

She is so fucking brave. I applaud women every time they talk about their experiences unapologetically but it hurts my heart that she is so young.

I gasped. I forget that 15 is still a child. I’m trying to picture a girl TWO YEARS YOUNGER than this girl, being grilled on the stand by the defense.

God. She’s so young.

Watched the Netflix doc on his mayoral run a while back, and her reaction to *that* sexting scandal was heartbreaking. Now that their son is in the pictures? GET OUT GIRL.

will including his son in the pics finally set huma over the edge?
