I was seeing one of my longtime best guy friends (whom I'd kissed a couple times over the course of our friendship, but had just started, like, being with in any more significant capacity). He told me that he loved me quickly. The whole thing was very intense. I'd been hearing rumors from mutual friends that he was…

My boyfriend of six years ended things through having an affair with a woman he met through his job (she was an ex grad student of a journalism school where he worked - ugh). I had suspected something for a while and he denied, denied, denied. The night we broke up I came home to find him chatting with her and he…

College, I was dating a douche y Navy ROTC dude who lived in his frat house. He bailed on a date night with me because he was "sick," so being a dutiful girlfriend, I took some chicken noodle soup over to the frat house. Walk in, walk up to his room, and there he is, banging some rando chick. I hurled the soup at…

Rewinding the world through a centenarian's eyes always interests me. So let's see... she definitely remembered a time when horses and wagons were the main transports. Probably remembered the first car she ever rode in, which was probably a Model T, and she might well have remembered the first one she even saw.…

It cracks me up when a dude says something gross to a woman who's eating a banana. You know she is BITING DOWN AND CHOMPING ON IT, right?

Somewhat as a followup:

In states of "at will" employment, it is even worse. Many employers don't want to deal with women who are victims of domestic violence. Be it time off or the fear that the abuser will come to the office or location, so they fire them. Understandably, this makes the womans situation far more grim and is just another…

Jesus. When I was rounding up content for a page I manage earlier, I came across a TEDtalk 'Violence Against Women is a Man's Issue' which was by a male presenter. I made the mistake of peeking at the comments, and it was nearly entirely men who were listing reasons why it is the woman's fault, never the man. FUCK.

I do want to say "no shit", but I won't because it's true, these things do need to be proved with studies.

""When these men show up at their workplaces, sometimes the women themselves are blamed for creating disruption at the workplace, so we need to make sure that employers know that it's inappropriate to hold these women responsible for the behavior of those men."

DON'T GET MARRIED if you are already resentful. That shit doesn't get better with time. I have seen too many of my friends go through awful divorces in the last few years (I am at "that age'). Postpone it until major life decisions get figured out. Yes, it will suck money-wise to postpone, but in the long run, it…

I've never dealt drugs or taken pictures of passed out girls...so can I go ahead and lob this big fucking rock at your stupid fucking head now please? Thx.

Here's a quick reality check: everyone — from Bill Clinton to your grandfather to every Greek organization in the nation does the same old stuff, just as they have been for the entirety of human history.

So they are acknowledging that exploitation of women and lack of respect for the concept of consent is a thing thats been around for centuries, and exists in every greek organisation around the country, they just dont think thats a problem?

/says it's not that big of a deal

It's interesting that when full grown white men in college do something criminal, they're 'kids' but when a black 12 year old is gunned down with a BB gun it's his own fault.

I don't think satire means what fratbro thinks it means.

Standard Republican Response 1: "The media has blown this all out of proportion and has prevented me from doing my job for the people of XXXXX."

I'm pissed people like this get to resign. He should been stripped of office - if not have had criminal charges brought (or at least considered) - as soon as the Downton Abbey office shit went down. Why did we have to uncover SO much ah other stuff before he even felt that pressure? The SHIT they can do and just say…

I'd like to enter an octopus eating contest and win said octopus eating contest, and as a prize get a t-shirt with an octopus on it and also a year's supply of octopus. Octopus is my favorite type of sushi.
