Yeah, I have a hard time seeing it as anything else too. It’s amazing how naked women can be used as a symbol for nearly anything. Thing is, no matter what the subject, it’s still objectification. This thing is especially dubious since it’s a white dude yelling “for our daughters!” LOL, wut?

If he seriously never heard of this, then his reaction would be shock, not contemptuous dismissiveness and evasion. He 100% absolutely had heard this before, that’s why he kept trying to cut off the question and assert that the questioner should know such a question was beneath him, instead of saying, WTF, people say…

Comedy is a very small world.

Chronic Lyme Disease is the latest made-up affliction affecting all rich people with nothing better to do than dream up vague symptoms and pay the quacks who benefit form it. Stop giving this bullshit press. It does nothing but make snake oil salesmen rich and confuse the public and negatively affect people who suffer…

I related to this viscerally. My mother was angriest when she sensed that we (and especially I ) were happy, and then the rage would take over, eclipsing everything else. Our childhood was spent in fear: the toll of which is lifelong.

I assume this was a Second Mile kid, which likely means this kid had no family support system. Also going to the police is not exactly a welcoming thought to a victim of abuse, he likely didn’t think anyone would believe him except for a head coach who already knew.

i think you are just viewing them accurately bb

Afterwards, they work together to put out an album called “Arnold Palmer.”

Hopefully it is entitled “Ice Tea”

Hold your small child as it pisses against the wheel of your car like my mother did with us on long journeys.

As a dude and former teacher, ^ THIS. I’m fucking sick and tired of people claiming men can’t control their behavior and that girls / women must change their behavior and how they dress to avoid being sexually assaulted. That’s bullshit. Men are capable of acting appropriately, so why are we excusing their behavior?

Fire those reprehensible excuses for teachers, and hire ones who don't sexualize our daughters. For starters.

Who here is demanding she apologize? She said a shitty thing and people are calling it out. I don’t understand your ‘leave it at that’ comment. We pretty much are, unless there’s a Jez posse headed to her house...? If she wants to discuss in public the ‘fact’ that men like young women (and not just 18, but 12 year…

Sounds like that's a problem with the teachers and their behavior, then. If some prejudiced school teachers in Texas start harassing and mistreating orthodox jewish students or hijab-wearing muslim students, should we say 'maybe they should avoid wearing their head-coverings to class so that they'll be treated safely…

The problem is that it's been proven that dressing modestly DOESN'T keep women and girls (or anyone else) safe from rapists, and that it sends boys, men, and abusers the wrong message when they constantly hear that women and girls need to avoid dressing a certain way in order for them not to rape.

Dear Governor Asshole: No one is interested in you publicly wearing a hair shirt. We want 1). A permanent fix for the problem 2. Assistance for the people whose lives you’ve permanently fucked and 3. CRIMINAL CHARGES.

also....

Are his children and grandchildren drinking it too?

How will anyone tell if Rick Snyder develops a learning disability?

I look forward to Hollywood’s version of this historic day, told from the perspective of the white female calligrapher who filled out the name cards.
