This is precisely what’s going on. He isn’t complimenting his daughter, he’s complimenting “someone/something he made.” It’s not really about Ivanka at all; he merely sees the fantasy of sex with her as the closest thing to sex with himself (ie. the only person he really loves and dreams about)

This is actually the reason why he does this. Sad! (At least I HOPE this is the actual reason)

Look, how else is a man supposed to compliment his daughter when the only compliments he knows how to give any woman are that he finds her attractive enough to have sex with?

People are telling you it didn’t come across that way. Because the purpose of communication is generally to transmit an idea to another person, if your idea is getting warped in transmission, it makes sense to see how it could have been stated more effectively to get the point across. You cannot control how people…

“That is fair” is such a succinct way of saying, “hey little lady, I guess this cute lil opinion of your’s is acceptable to me, and that’s what matters.”

“that is fair”? what kind of response is that? you’re conceding me my point? i bet you don’t think we have a systemic misogyny problem, rape culture, and frail masculinity. jesus christ.

I thought it was something like this. My impression is that Angelina may let slide an on set affair but she would never ever ever accept and turn a blind eye to such alleged acts. I think part of it stems from having a shitty father.

We wanted juicy gossip not allegations of child abuse :(.

America: you have just two skittles to choose from, and one will DEFINITELY KILL YOU.

We should be taking a lesson from that. How is it those NY police could manage to shoot that man in the leg and take him to custody alive, in an active shooter situation, while this Tulsa officer aimed for the vitals on a man who was “not complying” but posed no risk to the other officers or the public?

Meanwhile, an alleged terrorist actually shoots 2 cops and gets taken alive.

Sorry, this teacher isn’t cool and this topic isn’t funny. I’ve taught college for 15 years, and I wouldn’t say this to 18 year olds, much less 10th graders. You’re in an immense position of power as a teacher. It’s really important not to mock your students. I had one teacher in HS who consistently made fun of…

I’m of the opinion that if a picture might embarrass your kid don’t share it. Let your kid have some privacy. Save them for a photo album or something offline. If they want to share the picture when they are older let them.

The gesture said nothing of significance. They didn’t pick a side on police brutality and racism. The Seahawks remained neutral, which is a lot like saying nothing at all.

I am having secondhand rage for you.

Meanwhile, I told my therapist what mansplaining was this week and he (an older white dude) thought it was perfect and couldn’t believe he hadn’t heard what it was yet!
