Two things are guaranteed to make every busybody within a 50-mile radius come out of the woodwork: pregnancy and having an infant with you.

Ah, the largely unsubstantiated, but widely attributed to, “regret sex” rape accusation. Riiiiiiiiiight.
But if a woman came up to me and said “I was at a party last night, I got drunk and a guy had sex with me. I wouldn’t have said yes normally, so he must have raped me!” I would sigh, take down the report and move it to the unmarked file cabinet of cases I would work when real problems were not happening that day…
What you don’t get is that having sex with a woman who can’t consent is like driving drunk, you may never get in trouble for it, but it’s a crime.
‘The guy has to somehow be under full control the entire time he is shitfaced’
That may be one of the dumbest comments I've read on Jezebel. Thanks for demonstrating that you have a complete lack of understanding about how and when consent can be given.
So basically you are regretting the “good old times” when you could fuck a drunk girl at a party and get away with it because everyone “understood” that she had it coming? Do you also regret the times when you could feel up a girl dressed like a slut without her raising a fuss?
you just put on a “i am an acquaintance rapist” sign: you know that, right?
“Laziness and lack of care from police investigators.” It wasn’t laziness or a lack of care. This wasn’t an oversight.
I can believe it. Back when I reported my own rape, the reporting officer asked me no less than 3 times if I was sure if that was what had happened and then when I got down to SVU, the detective that took the next report treated me like I was wasting his time. I felt like a piece of shit and wanted to drop the whole…
Next time some jackass asks why people don’t report sexual assault to the police I am going to send them this report. Also to anyone who has been sexually assaulted, I believe you.
How can any woman *not* be a feminist?!? It’s like not cheering for your own team!!!! And that she can discuss Free the Nipple in the same breath as her own nude selfie.... GAHHHHHH my brain is exploding and melting simultaneously.
I never watch the opening ceremonies. I find them boring. I find the aspect of “the journey” boring as well. I like to watch the athletes do athletic things. Like sports.
How could they possibly know? All they have ever offered is tape delay, long narrative elements, and short, edited pieces of the sports themselves.
People are emotional, you idiot. Except for the sociopaths among us.
If that were true, the ratings for Rio wouldn’t already be cratering. Also, it’s bullshit.
Oh, please. It’s not like men don’t buy in to this either. Football for example is very much about the journey. Ever watch the run up to the draft? Jesus, nothing but sob stories. Ever see the press coverage about a player who has come back from injury? The in depth details about shoulder surgery for a quarterback or…
They didn’t see the shitstorm coming, no.... The power establishment thought this Hitler guy’s maybe a little loud, but the people like him, and he’s just a buffoon, so he’ll be easy enough to control once he gets into power.... The masses thought well, he’s a little over-the-top, but we DO need someone to fix the…
Any man who would oppose safe spaces for women probably has a lot to hide. Sure technically these spaces may be illegal but any decent man would understand why they need to exist and wouldn’t be against them. This isn’t about equality. It’s about safety. Women need to be protected from men. As long as men continue to…
