Sounds like you might really enjoy SuperFight. I've found that it pushes the humor much harder than the offensiveness.

Thank you. I love it when people don't believe that story because "No man would do that!"

I mean that women get treated that way regardless of their sexuality. Ask a lesbian about how men treat them when they say no to advances.

I saw them at Mars Cheese Castle.

no I understand what your point is. You're pulling a #NotAllMen argument in the face of my #YesAllWomen evidence. And the thing is, it doesn't matter that not all men are assholes because the ones that are don't go around with tattoos on their foreheads declaring their status. I can't look at a guy and know if he…

The root of my argument is not that I hate men (I don't, I actually like men a lot, which is why I date them and am friends with many). The root of my argument is that one of the worst case scenarios for a woman being hit on by a man she doesn't know is sexual assault, and that it's so common that women operate under…

I don't think it's just "crass and silly gamesmanship." One of the guys I asked out called me several terrible things, including a homophobic slur. Again: I (a woman) was asking out him (a man) and apparently that made me a lesbian. And worthy of threatening physically.

I'm sorry that my fear of getting assaulted is hard for you to stomach. That's such a burden for you to bear.

Like what? Voting with your wallet? Making your opinion known, perhaps via social media? Serious question though, what else do you expect people to do?

As someone who's organized two of those at this point, that is a full time job filled with a lot of sacrifice. I'm not saying no one will do it, I am saying that there needs to be something between that level of effort and a hashtag.

"Getting a date" is not the same as "dating", though.

I asked a guy out once and he told me I was too aggressive for him. I think threatened is a perfectly reasonable word.

Have fun getting raped when you reject strange men that pursue you! Because it might be easier to get pursued than the other way around, but I hope you've got thick skin because everything from verbal to physical to sexual assault will be your "privilege" as a woman being chased by straight men. Notice I didn't say…

Thanks to the beauty of an IUD no. Which is good since I live near Lake Michigan.

we were meant to beeeeeee.

I feel like first period stories are like first time having sex stories. They're a badge of honor and we can all sit around trading them like grizzled old soldiers.

I forgot one of the best parts: because I wasn't getting in the pool I ended up mumbling to my fellow campers (several of them older than me) what had happened. They spent the rest of the day telling me period horro stories and that one time a distant aunthad a miscarriage and the baby came out when she peed, leaving…

Eleven years old. In a bus, on the way to a camp field trip. Reading an Abraham Lincoln biography (because that's how I roll). I feel nauseous and weird. When we arrive at our destination, I go to the bathroom only to discover blood everywhere. I'm still not sure who was more horrified, me or the counsellor who I…
