She is the worst.

So do you think if someone had come up and shot him in the face and killed him, that person shouldn't have been charged with murder? A posted sign doesn't nullify the law.

I got into this exact same conversation not long ago. Except someone was asking "What was going through that woman's head that Cosby would rape her and she'd go see him again?"

Consent isn't the absence of no. When you consent, you're actively saying "yes".

It seems like the airline delayed the flight.

It's not going to change if I just move and he's not in this 100% - it's just giong to breed resentment.

No, he won't because it sounds like he doesn't actually feel this way now. I've been there.

I actually think - oops I mean FEEL! - like it's our emotions? Getting in the way? Lol shoes clothes lipstick I wish I had some logic. AHH I GOT MY PERIOD!

Yay! A man is here to weigh in on why an infallible criminal justice system that was designed by people like him, to protect people like him, is logically sound and thus real-life experiences don't hold water against it's theoretical might!

Absolutely. One of the detectives reportedly told people she didn't think simple rape should be a crime. Guess how many of her simple rape cases were taken to court? 1. That's not botched - that's systemic, intentional inaction.

That's what I was thinking! I've been waiting all this time to hear about the size of Mark's testicles!

So, you're a rape apologist who thinks a rapist is comparable to an inanimate object. You believe that rape is women's fault. Got it. There is so much anger in your comment I'm having a hard time wading through the emotion to get to your point, but I think I've got it - you identify with a rapist's mentality.

IMO, discussing hypothetical situations that didn't happen and therefore have no bearing on reality is the same useless exercise, no matter what the situation. Again, she explains in the article why she went back.

I understand what you're saying; I think it's a pretty common response. My litmus test is always to ask myself, "Would I say this to the victim if she told me her story?" If the victim told you Cosby raped her and you'd feel comfortable saying, "Let's turn this into a conversation about your responsible to not put

You can blame her for going back there. She's responsible for going back there (although in her account, it sounds like her perception of her power was limited and that's more important that her actual power). Then it ends. Because her presence is not what caused him to rape her. Him being a rapist is what causes him

Yeah, and if she'd never been born she also wouldn't have been there to rape. It's hypothetical so it doesn't matter and it actually doesn't make sense. What matters is he raped her. She didn't "let" him victimize her; he victimized her. To focus on her actions and not his (rape) is classic victim-blaming. She

You're saying if she hadn't gone back, he wouldn't have raped her. I know it's not your intent, but be aware that you're literally saying the rape was predicated on her action. You are exactly putting the onus on her for his action by saying what made the difference was her poor judgment, not him being a rapist. I'm

If you decide to live alone, disregard.

Congratulations. This is the stupidest thing I've ever read.

...he simply proved something we all already know, the double standard women deal with on a day-to-day basis.
