Seriously, on what planet are women shamed for their private parts by the patriarchy like I keep hearing about? I have 3 sisters whom I am very close with, and I have had many conversations with them about feminism and gender politics, but I have never witnessed this "vagina stigma" nor been told about it by someone I…

The fact that you only tell the one narrative, even with all those meaningless caveats (that no one who reads this site even pays attention to anymore...just look at the comments to this article) is probably what she takes issue with.
Are you hiding in my closet? Cause you sure claim to know a lot about me for having no clue who I am. I work at a women and children's shelter 2 weekends a month, and dedicate 10 of my working hours every week to pro bono work for the Omaha Home for Boys, including mentoring where my little friend Jacob and I have…
It's pretty obvious you have avoided them, or you would actually understand the story of Oman in context, and have enough information to know how laughable it is to have that thrown into the mix. The entirety of the Bible applies to me and all men, but if you don't know the difference between the Old Testament ("Old…
Kara, I don't know if being black precludes you from understanding this (which, I sincerely doubt, although you frequently claim being white precludes people like me from understanding many things), but the impact something has isn't something you can foresee beyond your own intent. That is, what you intend to happen…
Because she doesn't understand statistics or how to use them.
Because you don't understand statistics or how to use them.
Where are you getting your numbers? Because even the falsely compiled statistics on false rape accusations (which are always referenced on this site) would put the likelihood of #2 higher than you currently do.
Sounds good, Josie. And be so kind as to give me a call when everyone around you starts treating you like a murderer who got off on a technicality when you have done nothing wrong. Let me know when you're able to experience that firsthand, and compare it in a 1-to-1 fashion with the fear that comes from the…
Yeah, what a trip! Who the fuck would give a shit about douchebags like fucking men? They're only half the population. They're only human beings with rights, freedoms, responsibilities, etc. Fuck those guys. They should become transwomen, and then we might accept them...maybe...if they accept all our demands on them…
Amen!
One article versus...7 or 8 about each the recent male violence? In a 24-hour news cycle, like the one Jezebel adheres to, you could easily call that 'ignoring' something. They only published it for people like you to use it in the comments, anyway.
Ray Rice (while a douchebag beyond description) did NOT, however, kill his fiance. Anyone larger than you, or even comparable in size to you COULD kill you. Does that mean they should be treated differently? No. You can't treat people differently for things beyond their control.
And there's often an attitude that a man who is larger has no right to defend himself, because the idea that one of his slaps/punches outweighs the other persons. If someone starts something, they are to blame. The other person does not have to restrict themselves to what would be socially considered "comparable."…
You may "appreciate" consistency, but there's little to be found in your own musings. Is it somehow a man's fault that he's larger than a woman? Because women commit the majority of domestic abuse (http://jezebel.com/5509717/domest…). They just don't get brought to court for it nearly as often, but the emotional…
Considering you're on a website dedicated to women bitching about everything they can think of...that seems a very un-self-aware statement to make.
No, they're not. There. Undefended.
For being a Jane-come-way-too-lately with this very short story, which focuses mainly on the issues rather than the people unlike the other stories which focus on the people (because of their genders)? They should be applauded for that?
Your metaphor doesn't work at all. Learning to speak a language would be more akin to learning to develop sexual desire. That would still equate what language you speak with who you learn to love, which are then entirely from socialization. There is a clear separation between the two. How can you not see that? It's…
Why do women want to be urologists? My doc fiancé has 4 close friends and classmates who are female that decided to become urologists. Why don't you ask that question?
