A boy I dated in high school (for 1 month) punched me in the face AT SCHOOL because he thought I was sleeping with someone else months after we broke up. But first he threatened and cyber-stalked me. 

An 18-year-old girl in Manchester UK was just punched in the face and knocked out bc she dared, very politely, to tell a guy no thanks.

I was a staff nurse, caring for a 19 year old patient....was stalked for months after he was discharged from the hospital.  I was accused of being too nice to him.  

An abuser will always find their excuse- once I said thank you and smiled to the young man at the drive through window, as you do and that meant I wanted to fuck him.

“Orbiter” = “Stalker”

It softens what it really is so the people who do it can feel better about themselves and their faux righteousness. See also: the term “alt.right.”

Always love how the only account in stories like this that is widely shared is that of the murderer. “She flirted in front of him”. Oh? Your interpretation, you murderer. This is why women have to be careful even while just trying to be polite and respectful to other humans - two things women hardly ever receive in…

I’m an old person so I’d have to Google most of those terms but what I think you’re saying is “Man murdered teenager. Man took graphic pictures of dead teenager and posted to social media as trophy. Man’s followers and public media began victim shaming dead teenager”.

Bianca Devins is from Utica, Brandon Clark is from Cicero. It’s a fucked up, drug-heavy, and deeply misogynist piece of the earth. (As a side note, Utica looks like it’s the set of a post-apocalyptic film.) There’s a great deal of domestic violence in Western New York. One of my colleagues and her preteen daughter…

What does his police union spokesperson say about this? There is no way to ‘whitewash’ this incident. How will they make it his fault?

“Think about how many situation would have been de-escalated before they started.”

I keep trying to figure out how the security guard would even be able to explain this? With all the other horrific incidents, I could at least guess what would be the used justification, but here even that feels impossible. The only thing I could come up with is that the security guard thinks that his authority…

Ohio.  Why does the federal IRS office have non-federal law enforcement working there?  We REALLY don’t know when we wake up in the morning if we will be able to lay down in our beds at the end of the day...

I am thankful that Officer Gaston was well-trained, highly disciplined, and level headed. I think most of us in this situation would not been able to keep their composure and someone would have ended up dead. I wish all officers had his professionalism. Think about how many situation would have been de-escalated…

We’re digging trenches in the dirt now just so we can lower the bar on human intelligence.

I ... I mean what the actual fuck?! 

Or having health insurance and being told it’s cosmetic so you have to pay out of pocket. And then being quoted an astronomical (for a poor person) amount of money for said cosmetic procedure.

Embarrassment, lack of insurance, unable to get a referral to a dermatologist, being told that there’s nothing to be done by a GP.

Probably. I suffer keloids myself and I live in a 3rd world country with access to free healthcare, and get them treated at a specialist for free. It’s something I’ll never take for granted.

Still about dominance with an added dose of shaming the other person. Think about a subway flasher. He finds it arousing to expose himself to people who don’t want to see that. Think about upskirt photos. If you just wanted to see a partially clothed woman there are plenty on the internet. Instead, that person is…
