It's time to stop seeing this fool as your harmless, ill-informed drunken crazy uncle and get him the fuck off the airwaves!

None of this is very helpful if you actually are a woman, rather than a man who's attracted to women. I'm not anti-porn, but it doesn't make me feel good when the social message is that someone who looks like me is good enough to have stunt sex and be a masturbatory object, but that I'm not worth paying any attention…

Yeah I also said some pretty dumb things when I was her age.

This is why it get so ragey about children's literature. We tell kids from a young age that boy's/men's stories are universal but those of women and girls are only for other women/girls. Then we wonder why we get mansplaining.

Not having your face being eaten by your cat when you die alone choking on a slice of pizza.

Jesus, everyone, this is making me never want to get a boyfriend. What's the upside to being in a relationship then?

I think that's only one aspect of the equation. It's true that men have been presented as neutral and women as props or afterthoughts, but that goes further than people just accepting that men are more central to reality than women. The whole "men are the protagonists, women are the sidekicks" angle doesn't just…

I have to second you on this — I (too) remember the Jezebel Benghazi-rape unsavouriness back in 2012 — and I'm glad I found your comment. I'm not particularly squeamish and I'm no delicate flower, either, but this is just plain wrong, any which way I consider it.

But there are also so many people on social media defending rapists and abusers, the upside is so small that it does not really count especially as most of time nothing happens to rapists and abusers. The only person being punished is the victim.

What really freaks me out about all this besides the obvious is that these fucking kids thinks this kind of behavior is normal enough that they even consider posting it on social media. Like besides being idiots, its scarier than that. Anyone who says we aren't perpetuating a rape culture should consider that it has…

WHY is Jez posting still frames from videos of assaults on teenage girls? Editing her face out is not good enough. Did you learn nothing from your Benghazi post?

There was a case (well this one I know about) a few months ago where a rapist represented himself in court and got to harass and gaslight his victim on the stand by cross-examining her. Apparently it's a thing men who victimize women like to do.

No.. but.. wait.. feminism is, in this one instance (all other instances are man hating misandry spewing harpies) equal rights.. so... this would elevate women to a protected class, and is wrong.

I can't buy the "limited resources" argument anymore. They have actual army tanks now. Seems like they have plenty of resources.

I agree with anti pornography ideas but this guy has too many other issues. Pornography is based on objectifying women and degrading them

To all the people who think rape or abuse should "just report" like it's so simple; this story right here is exactly why that's bullshit. Police departments have no problem allowing violent, entitled misogynists on their force. Why the fuck would any victim trust the police to investigate crimes against women in…

I'd like to see violence against women classed as hate crimes.

Someone once threatened to kidnap my child. All I could do was file a police report and be paranoid forever now.

Did you even read this? Nobody is asking you to apologize. This isn't about you. The fact that you managed to be offended by this piece is a testament to just how much you don't get it.

You have some work to do. If you think kindness is the limit of what is needed to stop mass death of Black teenagers, you have some work to do. If you think the primary meaning of this essay was that you should apologize for something, or was even about white people, you have some work to do. If you don't understand…
