I got to my 20s when I realized "I really prefer to hang out with women." I dunno, I just didn't find that guys were at all reliable after a certain age. Now this is not a slight against women that have male friends, but my deepest friendships are with women. I couldn't relate on heartfelt stuff with a guy.

It takes bravery just to be a woman and leave the house with all the indignities and dangers we face. It's exhausting to have to be on high alert all the time because you're always viewed as an ideal target by some insecure or deranged coward. Fuck this world.

Yeah - in high school, my form of "cool girl" was being politically conservative, and being uber-feminine in my appearance. Boy, could I hang with those Libertarian Mansplainers! Puke. I used to only have a few girlfriends and more guy friends, and I thought that made me awesome.

To be frank, I'd rather have a "He takes it up the ass" line rather than the stupid "Women— men want ANAL!!11!!" storyline we got.

Sex Nerd Sandra did a podcast about it. I can't remember what it was called. But whether the receiver is a straight women or a gay man, they need time and patience in terms of readying themselves and getting warmed up. Within some straight relationships, there are women who use toys to do anal play where her male

The opposite? All right, buddy. Your true colors are showing. I didn't realize you were a MRA who thinks men are always the victims even in stories where women are killed. I wouldn't have engaged you if I had known. My mistake. I can't change the mind of someone as ignorant as you who thinks I should care more for

The statistics of a man committing violence against a woman is incredibly high. So, you are trivializing a serious reality. And to imply that women can just look at a man and know he won't kill her is laughable and dangerous. How is she supposed to know whether she'll be part of the statistic or not? Even if the

I just saw Collins and I thought it was Jason Collins, so my first thought was "NO! Not another gay person who committed suicide!" and then I saw Stephen and then I was like who? And then I read about the story and I was like...

Wow. That's dead-on. It's sadly so true. I want to take what you said and frame it on my wall, stitch it on my pillows, put it on bumper stickers and put it on t-shirts.

Yes. And all of the dichotomy examples all go back to judging women. We go through so many leaps and bounds to keep men from having to take responsibility for their own actions. The blame always rest with women.

The stakes are always higher when you're a woman. It goes back to the saying "Men are afraid women will laugh at them. Women are afraid men will kill them." And yet men's fear of being laughed at/rejected is supposed to be taken more seriously because being killed is no biggie but being laughed at or rejected is THE

But even if it's mental issues, there's still the underlying patriarchal reasons. That's why you don't see mentally ill women going around shooting men if they reject her at the same frequency.

I once read an op-ed where in the end, the person who wrote it said that if women would stop showing admiration for "assholes" and showed more appreciation for "nice guys", then we would be dealing with harassment less.

Inspired by Boondocks cover, I like to explain "I have a right be hostile"

I guess that view might be more generational. At lot of the stuff targeted at younger folks have followed this pattern a lot. Princess Diaries, High School Musical, most of the stuff on Nickelodeon and Disney recently.

I know, right?! Look, I know different strokes for different folks but these anti-porn women don't know what they're missing out on. Porn has improved drastically since the 1970s and there's now more man candy for women, not just eye candy for men. There's porn actresses doing threesomes with two good-looking dudes,

Dude, every social justice group have people who disagree. Dr. King and Malcolm X disagreed on how black people should be empowered. So did W.E.B. DuBois and Booker T. Washington. In the same vein, there are feminists who lean sex positive and feminists who lean sex negative. The important thing is we're aiming

Totally agree. I think part of it is that men view feminism as feminine, and their perception is that associating with anything feminine will make them lose status among other men. Rather than admit that, which would confirm the need for feminism in the first place, they just ignore all of the problems feminism

Also, no one wants to admit that they owe their status in life to privilege. (And actually, psychological studies have shown that men attribute their accomplishments to themselves but their failures to outside sources like "bad luck", while women tend to attribute their accomplishments to good luck but take
