These numbers are scary, but I hesitate to give them much credence given the sample size. Way too small to come up with anything legitimate for a population as huge as men who attend college.

Most of the times I've hurt myself it's been something stupid.

Yeah, free speech doesn't work that way in Canada. We have legislation against hate speech, of which this clearly qualifies.

Maintenance sex (a term I hate) really is just part of a relationship. There's a lot of give and take in a relationship, and sometimes you have to say, "Okay, I'm not really feeling it, but whatever - it's not going to hurt me or make me miserable" (if it is going to hurt you or make you miserable, then by all means,…

A few weeks ago I dubbed 2014 "The Year of the Misogynists and Racists" - I feel like that covers a lot of the crap that happened over the past 12 months.

Thank you! I live in a car city and ride in cabs very, very rarely (probably fewer than 15 times in my life), and I have been harassed by a cab driver. You don't even need to cab it often to have 1 or 2 stories about a crappy experience. I've never used Uber, but I imagine they have all the same problems at the other…

Bad? Absolutely. But Rosebudding is still the grossest thing Jezebel has ever, ever posted.

I'm digging the recent messaging about gender coming from the POTUS. There's been a lot to love lately.

Ugh, this still haunts me to this day. I was five, my older brother was 7. My parents had just had 'that talk' with him. It was about 9 p.m on Christmas Eve and we were supposed to be in bed, but he decided to come into my room and tell me that Santa wasn't real, just before I drifted off into a fitful sleep full of…

No, actually, I didn't. I mostly stuck to talking with my family about Canadian politicians. We don't really do partisan politics the way the folks do in the good ol' US of A.

I never said I was a horror. I said I was a conservative (surprisingly, not the same thing). I don't believe I have anything to apologize for, but if were brought to my attention that I had hurt someone's feelings I wouldn't hesitate to apologize. I believe most people are of the same ilk.

I think this guy sounds like he was very self-centred and didn't even consider how hard his comments as a kid hit her - if he even remembered them. People often have selective memories about their own past dickishness (or they feel somehow justified in it).

It's really disappointing that so many people assume I must have been a bully in order to think people who were jerks as children deserve a second chance as adults. I've been bullied, and held grudges. I've had lasting social damage because of some things kids did to me. But I'm not going to hold that against someone…

I agree that people deserve apologies, and should take an opportunity to let people know if they've been hurt and seek resolution. But like you said, people are still growing up in their teens and early 20s (although I'm far less forgiving of someone over 18 than I am of someone under 18).

You have every right to address these things. If someone thinks that they never hurt you, you can and should tell them about it. If they apologize, that's a great sign that they've reformed.

They haven't connected yet. I'm pretty confident she would if the situation arose.

My sister hasn't reconnected with her, but I'm confident she would. And even if she didn't, it doesn't take away from my overall point. People change, they grow up, and we all need to be able to separate someone's adult persona with how we remember them as children.

I don't think we can say they grow up unburdened. In most cases, we don't know their personal stories. We don't know what they've dealt with in their lives, and we don't have a monopoly on pain.

Actually, a more realistic application would be children raised within the nazi regime who have denounced those values.

I don't think anyone does. Like I said, I was a conservative - values I definitely don't hold anymore. I wasn't a bully - have never been - but I still don't want people to look at me and see someone who holds conservative values.
