I think that part of it is him making her feel responsible for his job loss. Which is bullshit. If she just called the cops on him and there was no conviction (she doesn’t mention taking him to court), then nothing shows up on a criminal background check.

A French girl turned him down for a date 10 years ago. He never got over it. SHE WAS THE ONE, DAMMIT!!!

And the girls are either too young and stupid to object to it, or they are pressured to not object to it.

Nope. Conservatives who hate liberal Massachusetts have been settling there and taking over the legislature. It’s more liberal than the South, but more conservative than the rest of New England.

My marriage at 16 was to cover my parents’ embarrassment that I’d gotten knocked up. Because helping me get an abortion was worse than putting me in a horrible position that has taken me my whole life to overcome (I still deal with the ramifications of their horrible decision even now at age 42). Their “reputation”…

I’d like to take this moment to also point out how racist these guys are as well. They are largely white with some Asians, who HATE that “their” Stacys might date a black man. Also, their ideal woman meets a narrow definition of fuckable: white, supermodel hot, genius, and virgin. So the incels aren’t just…

WORD. Evolutionary psychology is a myth that misogynists/bigots cling to for justifying any abhorrent treatment of people who aren’t white cis hetero males.

OMG I just had a HUGE Facebook fight with a guy that I know from a divorce support online group. He was excited about the prospect of getting rid of no-fault divorces, because he was mad his ex-wife just up and left him. He argued that no-fault divorces tied up the court system and enriched lawyers. I argued that…

Or, you could try to be a decent guy from the get-go, lower your standards to non-supermodel, non-genius virgins (like women have had to), and then get laid. Oh, I’m sorry, you wanted a way to force women above your pay grade to sleep with you? Oops. My bad.

Or, you know, we could imprison incels, since they can’t control their violent urges. We don’t cater to pedophiles to stop them from molesting children. We don’t cater to thieves. We don’t cater to drug dealers. Why should we cater to incels again?

OMG they got the mannerisms and the way of speaking down pat. The accent, the wording, the conspiratorial whispers, the outfits. It was perfect!

Yeah, if this unhinged idiot isn’t an example of white privilege, no one is. Can you imagine a woman, a gay person, or a brown person acting like this and getting paid like him? No way would that happen.

Ya know, I notice that when these guys are given a platform, they become emboldened to spread their disgusting views. Look at how they came crawling out of the woodwork when Drump got elected.

I also like that they are older. I’m sick of seeing young, attractive, charming people have trouble getting into relationships in rom-coms. That’s not realistic.

God, I loved that one too!

I watched that episode of Documentary Now with friends who had never seen Grey Gardens. I was dying, and while they thought it was funny, they could not believe it when I summarized Grey Gardens for them. They were blown away that a Bouvier would ever find themselves in that situation.

Starred for The Game Theorists, and also giving a shout-out to their sister site, The Film Theorists.

I’m in the same boat, only I get to pay child support to my abuser. Because according to family court, being a Wiccan (which I’m not) is worse than being a politician who molests children. At least the divorce decree states that support stops when the youngest is 18. It’s my understanding that if we didn’t have an end…

I am very excited that these girls are rocking long frizzy wavy hair. Since this is my hair’s natural state, I am hoping for this to now be a trend. I’m really too lazy for smoothing products.
