I have one son and two girls. He’s only 8, but I have already pointed out to him that most girls will have a harder go of life, just because they’re girls. Here’s hoping he’s the next step up from where I came from.

The most useful/helpful thing you can do, is to hold your fellow men accountable, continue to treat women with respect, and should you ever have children, teach them better than we were taught.

You do a good service every time you speak on what you just did. Speaking only for myself I’d say while I appreciate your offer to allow yourself to be a punching bag for women who want to vent, as someone who has been sexually assaulted I don’t want to take it out on you or anyone who isn’t the man responsible for…

I just had a discussion with a co-worker, regarding this video. What struck me, for different reasons than one might suspect, is the erroneous discussion on rape. A man might appear and drag you into the bushes. It’s typically a false assumption, but it’s instilled as a fear in girls.

Yes! I avoided much of the Cosby trial bc I’m a survivor of molestation from an extended family member, and it was draining. But I am gleefully rooting for Camille’s remaining years to be a storm of tears, lawsuits, anger, and just pure unabated hellishness, with her complicitous ass.

May this bring some peace and hope for them as well:

Another big issue is financial security. Honestly, rent is too high to breakup for many couples in major metropolitan areas. It is easy to tell someone to leave when you have a home to go back to that you can afford.

Wow. WOW. I’m shocked by this.

for the first time in a long time, i actually got a warm, peaceful feeling when a breaking news story popped up on my phone. more. more. more.

Maybe we need another term, because this wasn’t “grape” so much as not wanting to call someone she cared about a rapist. I know too many woman who were clearly raped as children, teens and adults who do not refer to the perpetrator as a rapist because of their relationships to/with the criminal both prior to and…

I had consensual sex with the guy who raped me. I didn’t want to admit to myself that the dude I thought was a great guy was a rapist. And I bought his weak excuse, because I wanted to believe he was a great guy. Women don’t want bad guys, we want good guys. We want good guys so much, we’ll try to convince ourselves…

I remember an advice columnist telling a letter writer to break up with her terrible, terrible boyfriend and then saying, “It’s easy for me to say. I don’t love him.”

That dress as an evening gown is very odd. Both the style and the fabric.

“But seriously, everyone ordering water - that just screams “cheap.” Coffee will get you more respect.”

Meanwhile, I was expecting the trouble to start when the crab legs came and he realized that the dish he ordered wasn’t that much of a kid’s meal, as that seems like an insane amount of food per a kid and king crabs are a touch obscure.

I had to circle the original amount when I worked in fast food. My brothers had to do it when they were grocery store clerks. It isn’t “this is the amount we want you to tip on”, it’s “wow, look at how much you saved!”

Don’t bother. She’s been doing this for years and never stops. I recommend googling her username for some greatest hits, because she uses the same one everywhere.

We do that because people are stupid and often don’t know which is the pre-coupon amount and which isn’t. Sorry if looking out for our own well being cause you to remove “tip points”. Great service and meal but they circled the original amount? Bad tip! You sound like a real prize.
