do you know these morons personally? because you're speaking as if you do. and if you do, you should urge them to get some professional psychiatric help. and if you think this is normal behavior, maybe you should seek help too: "Tyce (the guy they beat up) tricked Eli (the guy wanting the Xbox One) into flying to…

I'm not. Pretty much everyone I know who works in or adjacent to the field or who is a feminist knows that domestic violence affects men, too, and many DV programs reflect that in their word. But the fact remains that it disproportionately affects women. And it's okay to focus on that, much like how it's okay to…

*Blasts BarnBurner* I don't know why I keep tripping on this particular viewpoint, but I have seen it enough to get irritated at the very mention of it.

If I were to ever run into another feminist that did not recognize that men are also victims of domestic violence, I would be very quick to give her / him the talk.…

Yeah, like I said, they should be paid a minimum wage. Treated like employees. I'm with you.

If it were true it wouldn't make this anywhere near OK, and everyone is as outraged by the 'plain of feature' bit as the…

"Somehow in spite of not being ultra-fuckable in the eyes of most, she opted not for suicide (a common and understandable reaction to her plight) but instead to not give a fuck about it and go accomplish great things instead. How she found the strength to endure in the face of the harsh reality of not being a vector…

not a hottie, but still somehow valuable, somehow...like SOMEHOW she did it guys. weird, wacky stuff.

Lately I've been dealing pretty directly with my own psychological scars from being bullied almost daily for about 10 years of my childhood/adolescence — being constantly told that I was ugly. And this was before I gained 60-70 pounds and also became "certainly overweight" besides "plain of feature." Besides the…

See this is what goes through my head every time I have a job interview and they can't get me out of their offices fast enough. It's not my qualifications, they love those, that's what got me in the door. It is my appearance, and they just can't reconcile fatter (older) woman with competent person. So they'll hire a…

Just imagine what she could have accomplished if she were pretty and thin. Just imagine. Just imagine …

Oh god, ugh ugh ugh.

Never mind the whole Boston bombers poem.

first off, her name is Amanda Fucking Palmer and second, what do you expect from a Ghomeshi apologist?
