I mean, you can raise your child to know that women are people but in today’s society every other person outside of your home will remind him that in fact we are not. With their actions, with their laws, with their assumptions, with their words.
Oh wow, another misogynist woman-hating teenager who wants to murder women en masse because he was rejected by a female. This shit is getting real old. People - stop raising your boys to think that they are *owed* a woman. We are people, we have agency, we are NOT prizes that one can “win” by being nice or because you…
Women are useless weaklings unless they are about to be raped, in which case all of their body parts turn to powerful steel and they are able to ward off any physical force?
I don't think cheating is okay, and I said multiples times that it's not. That wasn't my point. My point was that we need a cultural shift towards cheating not being a relationship extinction event, but rather one of many shitty things long-term couples do towards each other that require reconciliation, not automatic…
Surely though it is not up to society to accept that cheating is ok given your parameters? It is up to the person who has been cheated on and screw what society thinks.
While I totally agree that most cheaters are doing something awful, I’m inclined to agree with Dan Savage that cheating does not HAVE to be a “relationship extinction-level event.” It’s taken as a given in our culture that a single affair will necessarily destroy a marriage or a long term relationship, that once a…
OK, I got raped by two adults at age 5 and, for one, I don’t want society’s “sympathy,” especially since it comes with a lot of “well what could you have done differently?” bullshit. Uh, not be a naive, trusting 5-year-old? I’ll get right on that.
Secondly, I haven’t met all sexual assault survivors, obviously, but…
With sex work you are consenting to sex within the condition that payment will be rendered for the sex act. Its sort of equivalent to consenting to sex with a condom, only to later discover that the penetrator took it off secretly. With conditional consent rescinding the conditions under which the consent was given…
Not even looking at her emotional state, is her body even ready for this? How is this going to affect her long term health? If he really wanted to protect the mother as he puts it, he would have taken that into consideration. I hope he gets raked over the coals for that awful answer.
I thought this guy was an idiot, but now i can’t help but think Huckabee is evil. A 10 year old rape victim. A child whose body is not fully grown being forced to maintain a pregnancy. There is no other word that fits men like this.
It’s not only cruel, it can be deadly. Ten year old children were never meant to carry a pregnancy. If it doesn’t kill, it can maim, including fistula and pelvic floor prolapse, which can cause permanent disability and render them unable to bear further babies. Not incidentally, it’s also deadlier for the baby and…
