As if we needed another reason to hate this asshole. Can he just cease to exist already? Or, at the very least, can we all pretend that he doesn’t exist? TIA.

Creepy, absolutely. Sexual assault... I’m not so sure. I am sure, though, that a lot of the people who purchased this thing (which sounds cool af, tbh, and I think I actually looked into buying it, but couldn’t afford it - could’ve been a similar one, who knows) would have actually consented to it sending the…

OMG that is the most adorable, unenthusiastic thing I’ve ever witnessed. Beautiful.

Sadly, I imagine most of the people who want to restrict women’s reproductive rights are just going to see this as a “silly grab for attention,” rather than what it actually is, which is about as close as you could get to putting men in women’s shoes where their reproductive rights are concerned. We should have a bill…

Also, if we all shared the attitude of the woman pictured at the top of this article with her sign, we would all be so, so much better off. All the respect to that woman.

avoiding shopping for the day, except at businesses owned by women and minorities. Because she is a retail worker, she felt this action might hurt her

If that’s not a prime example of what a shitshow our country is, I don’t know what is.

“I think that a lot of men who “are fine with” being with a trans woman are essentially settling for what they can get”

I believe that completely. I’ve actually tried on different jeans that are the same brand, just a *slightly* different style, and have them be at least two full sizes apart as far as fit. It’s insane.

Ah, yes, my mistake. Every time I hear somebody use that disgusting word in that context, all I can picture is an alien violently bursting from a woman’s body. Ugh.

Sure it is. Just only when it’s a religion other than Christianity.

Sooo, what is she supposed to do? Just suck it up and remain in a marriage she’s unhappy in, just so nobody else finds out about it? Yeah, oooookay.

Some days I really hate America. Rather than punish them, we just love to reward the absolute dregs of humanity by giving them not only a spotlight, but financial gain. It’s sickening.

Family Values™ are only important when the gays and the walking incubators women and those weirdos who don’t conform to our binary gender norms are making their existence known and especially when they - gasp! - are asking for equal rights. Obvi.

Honestly, I don’t even think she’s an 8. Maybe in some clothing, because we all know how fucked up sizing is and how you can be a size 4 in one pair of jeans and a size 12 in another, but a standard size 8? I am skeptical. Not to say she doesn’t look good, or that there is anything wrong with not being an 8, obviously.

Oh, I’m sure it does, I didn’t mean to imply differently, I was just referring to the author’s experiences that she shared.

Maybe the gender isn’t vital to the conversation, but it can help to create context. Generally when talking to somebody about a friend who either you don’t want to name, or who doesn’t know them by name. In that case, most people’d either say my guy friend, or my girl friend. I didn’t know about that happening with…

Refusing to be seen in public with their trans partner speaks volumes about those men. I hope everyone who goes through something like that can know that it is their partner’s own insecurity that is the issue, not them. Hopefully this article will help spread that message, too. Thank you for writing it.

Well, I mean, obviously you can just say friend - I meant in a situation where it’s relevant what gender they are. I really don’t see woman-woman relationships being dismissed like that. Maybe it’s because I don’t read tabloids or watch those particular shows. I’ve never heard of Steven Universe in my life, so I can’t…

I’m so down!
