As a woman, I have no problem with this. As an anti-war activist, fuck the draft.

I'm a little surprised you didn't quote or pull from the interview that Nyong'o did about why she wanted to play these characters had how she felt her body was commercialized after 12 years a slave and she wanted to do something that would allow her to act without being stuck in her own skin. I think it makes a…

As the old saying goes (I'm not sure it's actually an old saying but it should be): If all you've known is privilege, equality feels like oppression.

I’m pretty sure that if anyone has a direct line to God it would be this woman and her god seems like the vengeful old testament guy who will not take kindly to the assholes making the small amount of life she has left miserable.

That’s pretty normal. Grand juries generally hear multiple cases at once so depending on whether there was an issue with a witness that required an adjournment or time to work through subpoenas for medical records or something a month is really not a lot of time.

That suing FIFA is a) not relevant to wages and b) ineffective so, no, it would not have more impact on women in other countries if they were suing FIFA even in a “general hypothetical sense” because it’s not hypothetical, it happened and it failed. Suing USSF under employment discrimination laws is the best option…

You do know that they did sue FIFA already, right? over the turf injury/fairness issue at the world cup. Basically FIFA just crushed it and nothing happened. Suing FIFA has not been effective at all.

Best shade ever:

FIFA isn’t their employer, USSF is, so US wage discrimination laws don’t apply to FIFA.

I (a woman) don't have a period and I still carry supplies in my gym bag mostly for other people. I also have band-aids and Neosporin and ibuprofen and hydrocortisone cream. Some people just carry a bunch of that crap with them whether or not they are personally expecting to use it.

the last link is wrong, it doesn’t link to the chart you says it does, it links to information on ella.

fixed.

Dude, it's fine to meet someone at work. My comment was more about how it's not the only place to meet someone. I have no problem with people who work together dating and I'm super happy it worked out for you, it's just that dating someone at work has a whole host of other potential pitfalls if there is a…

short answer: yes.

In any unequal power dynamic (teacher and student, boss and underling) it is always the responsibility of the person in power to not have sex with the person not in power. It doesn't matter who is what gender and it is not about agency it is about the potential for abuse, impropriety, and negative consequences down…

Did that article really end with essentially an advertisement for the movie "to sir, with love"?????

Exactly. What are they supposed to do if they can't meet women at work? Go on one of the US's 2500 dating websites along with 10s of millions of other adults? Ask friends to set them up? Go to a singles bar/normal bar/speed dating/ kickball league/trivia night/soft ball league/ art and painting night/match maker/…

Oh please, that literature pales in comparison to the stories of middle aged men whose crisis are solved by seducing teenagers. It’s just that no one has the guts in our PC culture to be the modern Nabokov.
