That’s how I read it to. Don’t be talked into something you don’t want to do, don’t say maybe to seem nice, be assertive in your refusals, etc. Not sure I’d put it on a shirt, but I can’t say I disagree (at least with how I interpreted the message, and you too it seems).

I read it as a way of being more assertive. I didn’t read any sexual content in it at all. I think saying “maybe” when someone wants to bone would be a complete boner-killer anyway.

I, also, did not see the message and automatically think it meant rape.

Huh. I read it completely differently. I read it as don’t let someone bully you into doing something you aren’t sure about. If you want to say no to the D, then for gosh sakes, say no.

Don’t tell me what to do.

It wasn’t an omission. You’re creating expectations for something that no reasonable person would have expected, in order to sate the appetite of your peers for a Hillary bash.

Of course. He’s a privileged white man.

Which has zero bearing on the conversation at hand.

He hasn’t apologized for that “ghetto” thing either, and that was a very dumb thing to say.

*applause*

But even if I am a Hillary supporter, I didn’t want to propagate my own beliefs in a news article.

Yes, I understand your intent was genuine.

You’re wrong. He actively opposed same sex marriage, and even signed a resolution in Vermont seeking to “restore” marriage to what it “used to be.”

This is actually a very salient point.

Which is a lot more than is necessary. It was a reach to appease your peers, whether conscious, or not.

It’s weird that someone who claims to be a Clinton supporter would write a headline like that, with “Inaccuracies” in quotation marks.

Many people feel that Gawker coverage is far from balanced. My concern is that this bias hurts her chances should she be the eventual nominee.

There was no reason to be an ass to her, but there was no reason to make up total bullshit, either.

She really did fuck up with what she said, but it is a good apology and she isn’t trying to excuse it with any bullshit like , “Well I just got my words jumbled.”
