It’s not. But that’s the hypocrisy. Women are sexual objects pretty much up for grabs as soon as men say so. But boys? Not the same. 

This type of thinking makes me shiver. I got my first period in 5th grade, so while my body was (apparently) “good to go,” my brain was still pretty consumed with pogs and friendship bracelets.

This is not an odd attitude for someone from the “manosphere”. Most of them believe grown-ass men should be able to have sex with any person who has hit puberty (or, at least, they used to—I don’t read their stuff anymore). For me, that was 10. Ponder that for a minute—I’ve argued with men who think I should have…

I mean, Trump is going to speak there too. Edit: I get the joke but I do think it’s worth spelling out. He’s an adulterer who has kids with three different women. And he’s bragged about sexual assault. And bragged about walking in on naked teenage girls.

Just remember: they felt all the other awful shit he said about racial minorities, Muslims, women, and LGBT people was just a matter of “free speech”. Apparently this is the thing that was too “offensive” for them and where they felt the need to draw the line in the sand, where they felt the need to “infringe upon his…

So we’re defining 13-year-olds as sexually mature now, are we?

Interestingly enough they were apparently super cool with all his racism, misogyny, and transphobia. They had no problem when he called a Black woman an ape, or when he doxxed and risked the lives of trans women. They had no problem when he went around making false claims that trans women are just predators in…

That’s a lot of writing, and yet no mention of how weird (or otherwise) it is to have Stephen Merchant playing a mutant in a Wolverine film. I need to know!

God, remember back when we all thought she was just the battiest goddamned thing to ever come out of politics, and how it was amazing someone that unprepared for office was anywhere even near the presidency?

I’m listening....

… isn’t he the only R in congress promising committee hearings into the Russian connections…

I think McCain is an excellent illustration of how positive character traits are not necessarily transitive from one context to another. Just because he was brave in one circumstance hasn’t precluded his being a coward others.

If the purpose of the day is to show the impact of women in the workforce, I still think staying home (even if it means your kid stays home too) is worth it. Not that you need to be reminded, but if a school day is disrupted it proves the entire point-- You (the general you) depend on women to do their jobs so you can…

I think the point is to make the presence felt. Go into work one day and there are zero women there and for most work places it will be pretty strange.

Yeah the republicans are really letting it all hang out now, huh?

I’m really digging the whole “the GOP members of Congress are having breakfast with their wives” statement. Nope, no casual sexism here - we’re just so used to all of our members being male (preferably straight, white) it doesn’t even enter our minds to refer to the group as including any other kind of human other…

Sen. Rand Paul (R-Kentucky), whose brain appears to have fused with his cotton mock turtleneck, says an investigation into Mike Flynn’s resignation would be “excessive,” and that it “makes no sense” to have “Republicans investigate Republicans.”

You’ll always fondly remember your first (POTUS).

Sometimes I would look at just the pictures for hours! Not even read the story, just stare at the pictures. I'm quite surprised I didn't go insane.

The pictures out of that book haunt my nightmares. Especially that giant rabid Mexican rat thing. *shudder*
