I have really, really thought about this. I understand rape culture. I understand how, even just 20 years ago, women were still not believed. All of that being said, as a lawyer, I feel like Nate Parker’s acquittal should mean something. He was found not guilty, and he should not suffer and be called a rapist for the

We sleep trained. MY mother thought I was being a control-freak, but it all paid off in the end. Now, at four-years-old, our son still doesn’t get that it is ok to come out of his room when he wakes up in the morning. The kid will just sit in his bed, playing with his stuffed animals or a book, until my husband or I

I am teaching my son about consent. He is 4. We have to start that young.

Facts. People just don’t like them if they don’t fit their pre-conceived narravite. Her DNA was not on the knife.

I would like to introduce myself. Now you have.

I never thought of it this way, but you are right.

What in the hell is this??? NO arrest? $5,000 bond? This is absolute BS!

When I was in kindergarten at a Catholic school, I told my teacher that I didn’t feel good and asked to go to the nurse. She told me to sit down and put my head on my desk. Of course, being a 5-year-old, I got up a little while later and told her I felt like I was going to throw up, but she again told me to go back to

Most of the comments I saw at the time were about going after the judge. I was trying to say that perhaps attacking the judge by calling his office and harassing his staff was not warranted and might cause more emotioanl damage to the judge and his court staff.

I know this will not be a popular opinion, but I have to say it. The judge (and likely his court staff) will mourn this woman and likely be affected by his decision to set such a low bail for the rest of their lives. As a public defender, I remember a female judge telling us about a case where the charges were

This is a reality show that you should be pitching to TLC.

Absolutely the best link I will click on today.

Oh the joy of the little protective upper middle class bubble. I am grew up in the same area, and I didn’t know how sheltered I was at the time. I was raised by liberals, so I thought I was exposed to the real world because I cared about poor people.

Hey now. I still have my “All I Want for Christmas is My Country Back” Howard Dean 2004 button. I just loved Dean. I also loved John Edwards, and he turned out to be human garbage.

I hope Huma can see this somewhere!

I wouldn’t say my husband is a porn junkie. He likes it. I don’t. I think it has caused him to have unrealistic views about sex and, to an extent, to cause issues in our marriage that were not there before. Yes, the orgasms are a little better because maybe has has learned some technique. However, the down side is

What is so frustrating about her “I’m not a prostitute” argument, is I don’t think Nina was saying she was literally sucking dick for money. She was basically calling her a gold digger who, even Kelly admits, forced her to return to their marriage by holding money over her head.

I am white, and I force myself to watch these very movies. It is one thing to know your white priviledge and to read about the past. But seeing that past come alive on screen makes me hate a little part of myself. How could people do those things to other humanbeings? It enrages me!!! It makes me hate my teenage self

Wow! First time I have EVER agreed with ANYTHING Kanye has said.
