I am male and I believe you.  But I think that street harrassment must be on par and even worse in several other nations.  And street harrassment seems to be a a daily occurance for women in NYC and other major US cities, but it is much more rare in the suburbs and rural parts of the nation, where the majority of…

13 fucking years? Holy crap. I sincerely doubt she will get sentenced to anywhere near that length of time, but the fact that it is even possible is mind boggling.

Is a person with “mental health instability” really “unable to consent”? I am not talking about these allegations really, just regular sexual interactions.

I am a man and Fran Drescher is one of my celebrity crushes, which most people find amusing. I love her sass, hair, accent, and I loved the way she dressed.

If there was no stigma against being gay, if it was just like being either left handed or right handed (and I know lefties were once stigmatized.) I bet a lot of males would choose to be homosexual. It is just so much easier to get sex if you are gay. In a world without homophobia, I think that being gay is a massive…

“Virtually every one of my daughter’s friends in her class of rising 9th graders is queer, genderfluid, gender nonconforming and/or trans.”

I am a sucker for musical biopics. I can’t wait for Bohemian Rhapsody to come out. I wonder who is next? It seems like this genre might drive itself to extinction as there comes a point where there are no more worthy subjects.

Yeah. But there also is something to be said about a person entering college fully transitioned, which would mean either entering college after age 18 or beginning transition during high school.

Yep. I am kind of surprised how honest this Jezebel author was about the tweets. I guess it is better to be upfront about it here, than to have somebody dig out the tweets and say, “Of course she doesn’t want to talk to you!!!”

I think that men in particular have difficulty just hanging out with their friends. In restaurants I frequently see groups of 6 women having dinner. I hardly ever see groups of men doing that, or going to a coffee shop to chat.

When I was a kid I thought that all of the states were shaped by cookie cutters and Maryland and Delaware were just the crap between the legit cookies of pennsylvania and virginia.

“nearby Anacostia.”

this is interesting. But “bullying” can mean a lot of different things to different people. I am a high school teacher and I am interested in the frequency as well as the intensity of bullying. I believe that bullying is less intensive than it was in the past, especially when compared to when I was in high school. I…

I mean, Brad Pitt also has a huge pile of cash. Not as huge though.

I think that my views on incels are crystal clear to no one, including myself.

I do not condone the vitriol and violence exhibited by some incels. Nor the admiration of such violence.

Wow really? Was it a very small town in a rural area?

Really? That is surprising. I think that might be because commenting on a woman’s sneakers is a very safe way of hitting on her. Once a woman said to me, “Men are always commenting on my arms, I guess men like arms.” I told her, “Well, if men commented on any other body part, he might be in trouble.” Same deal here,…

“Yes, in fact in some fields and offices if you don’t wear a skirt and heels you are not only breaking dress code but limiting your own career.”

not basic flats. Ballet flats in particular. https://www.glamour.com/story/love-ballet-flats-they-may-be
