Yeah, I know, though I see I didn't include that in my post. I intended for my point to be that these women ARE getting appropriate counseling sessions. The "think on it—adoption!" thing is so unbelievably stupid and patronizing. Like asking time off work, making the appointment, and figuring out how to pay for it

A counseling session specifically to tell her she "has other options"? That would be fucking stupid, and definitely gives women too little credit.

COME AT ME, BRO!

Catherine the Princess of Table Tennis!

What on Earth is that about? I know basically nothing about fencing, so am all full of wtf here.

Yeah, she got up and finished the routine. It sucked, I'm sure it hurt like a bitch, but did no serious harm to anything other than her career (and ego). The spotter is her coach and her Dad. I think he was readying himself to catch her if she was going to the ground headfirst, but when he saw it was going to be a

YEAH U MAD!

Apparently, the spotter is only supposed to intervene with the fall if they're NOT going parallel to the ground like she is there. Hitting flat on the pads = less chance of injury than hitting another body.

BLAMMO! Wow, that one was right in the kisser!

EPIC. BITCHFACE. Like, put her in the party scene in "Anna Karenina" when Anna comes in and steals all the young single girls' thunder.

That's not really "confusion" though. Entitlement or feeling "owed" sex means the consent of the other person doesn't matter. Just as a voyeur may feel internally that it's his "right" to look at whoever he wants, in whatever way he can find to look, regardless of whether or not they would say yes if he asked. No

It's the fact that both the voyeur and the rapist get off on the lack of consent of their victims. That's the common "boundary-violating" thread that puts them on the same continuum.

Again, context. My "hate penises" comment, to which you replied, was sarcastic. A joke. A sarcastic, joke response to Lindy's obviously hyperbolic joke of a question.

You can knock an eleven-year-old over with a feather—it doesn't take much of a spotlight for most kids that age to feel embarrassed, or too shy to speak around their role models. I think Maisy Biden probably would be embarrassed simply because she's at an extremely self-conscious age. But when she grows up, she will

Haha, how sweet! I love a proud coach. I also love that the President was more interested in telling the ladies about the girls he coaches rather than his own game. And dear God, please let the Vice President go to a middle school basketball tournament with a big foam finger! It would be freakin' adorable!

Roo! I haven't seen you around these parts in ages! And as always, you speak the truth. If only folks would quit this petty "only got hired because you're _____," garbage, we might recognize our common interests and actually make some headway on the class front. How ridiculous that, with all this labeling, the

Oh they'll definitely have footage of a field sobriety test, but if it makes them look bad, they will lose that shit so fast, it would make your head spin.

Paddington Bear! Oh, my childhood!

I am aware of that, and of the fact that they will sexually aggress humans and other non-dolphins. I also don't think animals actually have a will. This human dude puts his legs up in the air and pumps his fist like, "Go! Go! Go!" Of the two, the human is responsible for the nature of the contact.

For some reason that escapes me, people seem to be fascinated by the Greek experience in the South. They are not that interesting. I would love to have it explained to me. I think that fascination is why she got the column at McSweeney's, after she entered some kind of open essay contest.
