Given how often green card marriages are used to facilitate human trafficking, I’m really uncomfortable with this post.

http://nymag.com/thecut/2013/05/when-men-sabotage-birth-control.html This explains some. Men try to seem like the victims of whores setting up traps for them with unwanted pregnancies but it is actually the opposite. They use pregnancies and babies to control women.

It is scary how many men use contraception coercion to control women. So even if this has it’s advantages women still need easy access to birth control. http://nymag.com/thecut/2013/05/when-men-sabotage-birth-control.html

Yeah my first thought was whether you could trust that a guy actually got it.

Honestly, I don’t have much hope for it in India or other “poor countries.” Women have a hard time getting birth control in many of those countries because the men don’t want them to...they’re certainly not going to get it for themselves. Especially if the marketing stresses its “sperm-zapping” qualities. 

I’m interested to know if Americans have a proper network in place to deal with this kind of thing. I’m from Northern Ireland where abortion has always been illegal and we have organised ourselves to make sure that every woman in need can get an abortion. It’s not the ideal way but it’s invaluable. Your Irish sisters…

*insert comment here about how we are supposed to feel sorry for his base*

That’s seven shades of fucked up, that is. I hope you were able to find even a tiny bit of solace in the kitten.

And parents wonder why their kids don’t trust them. That is fucked up.

I...am so sorry. Holy shit. My mouth dropped open while reading that. That’s so fucking abusive.

I feel like porn and mainstream erotica has desensitized people so much, to make them think that everyone is low key into torture, rape, loss of control, pain, etc. No, not every woman is, sorry. Nor should we expand our boundaries for anyone else if we’re not into it. I honestly feel like I’m screwed over enough in…

Totally. The number of people here referring to this as “standard” or “normal” or “common” is chilling. Call me crazy, but I wish we lived in a world where it wasn’t standard for men to be excited at the thought of raping and hurting women...

is it me, or havent we as the human race come far enough along that putting actual sex in an advertisement isnt the most hackneyed, flailing, lowest common denominator, obvious logical endpoint of the sex sells mantra?

Don’t be alone with him again. People (sometimes) tell you who they are. When a man says he wants to hurt you, injure you, and penetrate you against your will, he means he wants to hurt you, injure you, and penetrate you against your will. If he did assault you, his texts and the fact that you were too thrown to…

I have a swinger couple friends who know a girl who only fucks marines and this is quite tame compared to the stories she tells.

“Taking you against your will” reads to you like he was planning on prior consent?

I’d delete his number, personally. I don’t fuck (with) men who have rape fantasies or are into violent sex. It’s just a line I can’t cross.

Maybe there was actually a different reason for his divorce.

Clinton tried that. She wanted to bring training in alternative energy jobs to coal country so that coal miners wouldn’t become unemployed as coal went the way of the dodo, but she made the mistake of saying that doing so would put coal mining companies out of business. Well, I mean also she’s a woman, and Benghazi…

When I was in high school I learned that my elementary school music teacher had been murdered.
