You can't leave a child alone whilst you go off to work, that's what swung having a dog for me.

Almost wish we could send this guy some flowers or something. Wow. :(

and here, precisely, is my reason for why I don't respond to cat-calling (not that it happens at my advanced age, but I have had customers be completely inappropriate, like following me around the grocery store) - and the answer to all those assholes that refuse to understand why so many women feel unsafe when…

So...catcalling is just a compliment right guys?

the sad thing is that when I heard about this my first thought was, "wow, someone in Philly stood up to catcalling? He must be a tourist" and sure enough...

But, but, but! Aren't men always telling us that catcallers are doing us a favour and aren't at all dangerous and likely to harm us?

This kinda says everything about the real motivation behind a lot of catcalling, huh?

Hmm, and people wonder why women are so unnerved by catcallers...

That's so terrible. This is my point, by the way, every time some guy (generally sexist, but sometimes just clueless) tells me to just yell back or tell men to fuck off when they harass me in the street - you just never know if that guy is the type of guy who will go apeshit. Anyway, I wish this guy a speedy…

I really wish you could unpost this. I get that people are shitty and say shitty things and it's click-worthy, if not news-worthy, to report on it. However, I just wish that all the shitty responses that people posted self-righteously about suicide being the "cowards" way out didn't garner ANY attention...least of all…

Prior to Kinja, I headed the trollpatrol team for Jezebel, as many people here know. We dealt with rape gifs, violent pornography, racism, and harassment regularly, but there was a system in place with which to have it reported and dealt with. Banning didn't usually result in the same person immediately making a new…

I just want to write dude, not dismiss bloody rape gif trolls every day. It is the worst part of our jobs to hear from commenters that they can't discuss, say, a teen girl being great at Little League without some person boasting a burner account using the collective comment thread as a chance to harass people.

It honestly breaks my heart a little bit that this post even needs to exist — but the manner in which this has been handled (or not handled, really) by HQ is pathetic. Not reporting on it feels hypocritical, so here we are.

For what it's worth, I want to apologize to our readers who are forced to interact with these violent gifs regularly. The point of Kinja is to create a better platform for discussion and those discussions CANNOT happen when you're inundated by such traumatizing material. It's this person's goal to shutdown…

The last thing I want to do is give this giant and troubling waste of our goddamn time the acknowledgment that is clearly so desperately craved. But the fact that I must suppress my pride and bring attention to this in a plea for support from my own employer makes it all the more ridiculous.

going to see it again today. Everyone I know has seen it at least twice. That is a record to me.

A sex-ed book on common sexual practices? NO FUCKING WAY! BURN THE BOOK! BURN IT!

People need to figure out all the things that religious freedom isn't:

My biggest problem with this is that they receive federal funds. I get that religious groups have some pretty (I would say) extreme views on a number of things. But I'm really more pissed that my tax dollars will be used to support them in these views.

That Birds of Prey show was so low budget it didn't stand much of a chance. It had a pretty impressive debut which strongly implies that people would love to see Huntress and Co kick ass, but the production values were just so bad.
