Her words that weren’t, “Hey, can you stop because that is an unconscionable thing to do to another human being?” and her words that were “I love him.”

Again, not what I’m doing. Metzger should be held accountable for his actions, and Amy should be held accountable for her words. Separate things.

Ok, well, I don’t. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Especially since I’m ragging on her over her actions and her judgment, not over his.

This is absolutely true, and something I hadn’t considered when I first watched this.

Did you read what he wrote? It was vile. And it’s not the first time he’s written something like that. I’d question the judgment and character of anyone who’d choose to remain friends with and publicly profess love for the writer of that tirade.

Because she’s better known, because she still says she “loves” him, and because she has a spotty record with other social issues.

Because word choice really, really matters in situations like this. I get that he didn’t intend to say that rape hasn’t always been what we see it as today. But this is an incredibly delicate subject, and he should have known better than to use the phrase “what rape is becoming.”

Not at all what I’m saying. I’m saying that I don’t like her equivocation. I’m saying that her actions don’t align with her words. Hell, her words don’t align with her words.

I am SO DONE with Amy Schumer. I’ve given this lady enough chances. She no longer deserves the benefit of the doubt. She’s constantly equivocating over issues like this. Take a fucking stand, Amy, or else step off the damn podium.

It’s not an either/or situation. It’s both/and.

Why didn’t you mention the name of the accused rapist in this post? I understand why Metzger used a pseudonym (to protect his colleague), and I also understand that it can be tricky to write about real people who are accused of crimes but haven’t been found guilty in a court of law. However, barring some sort of…

PBR and Twinkies—a classic combination.

This is just unbelievably weird and sad, yet I don’t doubt a word of it. It’s too weird to not be true.

Exactly my story. I’ve been with Jezebel since the beginning, and it feels really shitty to still be in the greys. :(

Yes! Please!

You should definitely report that. There are anti-human-trafficking organizations that work with the police and depend on tips from individuals to get intel and perform raids.

Oh, thank you for the clarification!

Oh man! :/

Yes, thank you for this, hahahaha!
