This isn’t something I really talk about, but I became sexually active at twelve. I was coerced into having sex with my 15-year-old boyfriend by this skeezy older guy (I think he was in his early twenties.) who watched the whole thing to make sure we really did it.

14-year-old with a 17-year old is 100% legal in New York. While 14-year-old with an 18-year-old is a crime, there is an affirmative defense which makes it not a crime if the 18-year-old is less than four years older than the person under the age of 15 (so if you were 14 and 8 months and he was 18 and one month, that’s…

Exactly. The practice of getting a 12-year-old mail order bride from the old country is, well, still something I would disagree with in its time. But to bring it to the present to justify statutory rape is ridiculous.

Seriously, this is creepy as shit to be like, “Imma just regard 14 year old girls like 17 year olds instead. Cause I feel like I can justify that.” A 14 year old WOMAN? Just fucking stop.

“I was almost obsessed with having a man feel like he wants me. It made me feel great and I didn’t care what he did or how old he was”

We were playing hide and seek and things just really got out of hand.

Shudder. And your landlord has refunded or discounted your rent for the duration of the dead rodent smell? Did they do what most people do and set out poison and then become shocked when the poisoned rodents did not evaporate or die in convenient locations?

I mean it’s ONE banana, Michael. What could it cost, ten dollars?

This makes a lot of sense. Nice rugs should stay clean! Poor buddies.

I’m seeing prices of $4-$6 a sq.ft. for cleaning wool Oriental rugs. I’m really, really bad at math, but according to my calculations their rug must have been 7,000x 3,200? (approx)

My entire life’s net worth up to this point probably still doesn’t equal the value of Beyonce’s wig collection.

I get that this is bad, but in the 90s she hounded a trans woman chemistry professor (I think, it happened when I was really young so it’s a bit murky) in a campaign that would make the WBC proud. She’s not going to move forward ever and we need to accept this and respond appropriately.

Whether I agree with her opinions or not, I think asking older women—especially one of Greer’s background— to sit down and let the young’uns take over is a bit much, too.
Let her talk and defend her views, or let her talk and change her views. If we just tell her to sit down and shut up, old lady with outdated views,…

Ms. Greer has been a valued voice, but this ongoing transphobia from fellow second-wavers is disappointing and discouraging. Move into the twenty-first century, please.

Uh...did you...miss the part where the vegetarian samples were the most likely to be contaminated ones?

If it could, then “Texas” would never have become a Norwegian synonym for “crazy”.

I think they are getting records of women who donated the tissue from abortions, to “see if they were coerced” or some such bullshit. This isn’t about the medicaid funds, it’s about those bullshit videos and a fucking raging hard on for fucking with women.

So correct me if I’m wrong: they won’t find any abortions paid for by Medicaid, because since Medicaid doesn’t cover abortions, then the reimbursement would never have gone through, right?

I just donated another 100 bucks to PP.
