It is super telling about every single one of your privileges that you brush off his dangerous racism, misogyny, ableism, Islamophobia, xenophobia, love for murderous tyrants, and ignorance with a mere “...worse for some people, but calm your little heads”. Seriously? Get stuffed.

It might also have to do with short women being fetishized, while short men aren’t. The same for large women and large men. Society views extra heavy people as unattractive in general, but a decent sized group of men have a “chubby chasing” fetish that’s practically unheard of in women.

I know people are piling on, but I sort of agree with you. I was an adult when this photo appeared, and am fairly up on world events, but my takeaway was more “What a gorgeous young girl” and less “She’s a symbol of refugees”. It probably wasn’t until I saw the follow up article years later that I understood how…

what part of this solution the programmers made do you not like? It’s just a block function, man, no need to get all bent out of shape that you can’t act like a creepy ass in virtual reality.

Because now they can’t sexually harass women in VR.

Like, I acknowledge she could have simply quit the game, which she did after two minutes. But now the developers patched the game to prevent this sort of behaviour in the first place, which is a good thing.

Um, why the fuck should anyone have to put up with even virtual groping if they don’t want it?

Think of how traumatizing that could be to people who have been assaulted in real life. Or molested.  

Eat less, work out more, weigh less and still have saddlebags.

When I was a teenage a male acquaintance raped a female friend. The male friend went to jail, but I couldn’t help think it should have been longer than 7 years. He had a history of escalating violence towards girls and women, starting with bullying them (me especially), hitting his girlfriend, raping the female friend…

Van Wagner cited his own history as an English major in college, saying “every single short story could be interpreted 12 ways.”

Alma mater and my hometown criminal justice system, please don’t let me down. This is a very scary individual.

You don’t need genitals to sexually assault someone...it’s about power, and in this case a truly broken psyche.

I am glad he got caught now let’s hope they keep him in jail and the judge do not end saying “well, he has not killed anyone, he just raped some women and wrote something on a notebook about killing females, I bet he has a brilliant future as a fictional writer...”

Looks like what we’ve got here is a budding serial killer.

and one column simply marked, ‘kill.’

Listening to that recording is heartbreaking. Abby Honold is so calm and dignified as she tells her story. And the douche brothers are completely impervious to the horror of what she’s telling them. They just stay focused on the juvenile trap they deliberately set for her.

I am very pettily glad he was arrested in front of a bunch of people, on Christmas Eve, ‘ruining’ his sister’s wedding. While I do think it’s possible that some families truly do not know about the disgusting, violent things their kids/siblings/parents/cousins do, I find it very difficult to believe that someone who…

everything about that sucks, sorry you were assaulted and your former friends didn’t stand up for you.

I had friends who did that with me.

But the logic here is sound!
