It’s terrible that our bar for “lucky" is so fucking low.

I met a guy at a party recently. He kept striking up a conversation with me even though it was clear (to me) that I wasn’t interested. At first, he said “wow - you’re a tough nut to crack!”, then “you seem so reserved - it must be difficult to get to know you, but I want to try! Say, Tuesday night?” (I said no). A…

I just want to remind everyone that even if you have not experienced violence or harassment due to rejecting unwanted advances you absolutely know someone who has, this is as horrifying as it is common.

I can’t see how sending this people ANYTHING shouldn’t be construed as aiding and abetting.

Maybe it wasn’t as widely-reported nationally, but I used to live in FL and I heard about the rape before he won the Heisman.

The only interview of her I have seen was in the documentary The Hunting Ground, and while the filmmakers even said the documentary was more advocacy than unbiased journalism, I definitely believe her story. No one would go through what she did for the possibility of a payout.

It's pretty normal.

“The only thing as vicious as rape is falsely accusing someone of rape.

There’s a scene on the CBS show Criminal Minds in which JJ, a pregnant FBI profiler, halts a conversation about a killer to put headphones over her pregnant belly.

Why are we so paranoid about what pregnant women see?

Don’t you just love it that the anti-choice movement chooses random developmental milestones to tug at people’s heartstrings? A heartbeat at 6 weeks means very little (nothing really) in terms of viability or the elusive beginning of life. GTFO with this sappy shit.

Republicans, take note: this is not how this is supposed to work

All of those words get applied to women and not as often to men. Words have positive and negative connotations. Those connotations matter because it determines how and when they used. Also, the impression it leaves. For example, crowd and mob can both mean a large group of people but mob also means an angry and…

“shrill” – defined as “the rising shrill of women’s voices”– and “psyche” – for which the example sentence is, “I will never really fathom the female psyche”. “Grating”, defined as “sounding harsh and unpleasant”, was illustrated with the phrase “her high, grating voice”, while the adjective “nagging” used the…

You know what else is a terrible job that doesn’t pay well? Acting, for almost everyone. I know, all of them think they are going to land on the next Friends or churn out a steady career of small parts but most actors are going to flame out and have to join the real world, we aren’t short on people that want to act…

You two don’t realize the comment was about supply and demand?

It is very hard to make a good living doing something that anybody can do. Ironically, that is both drive an uber, and act.

Well since Uber wants to build self-driving cars, we already know what the end game is don’t we ?
