All excellent suggestions.

Absolutely. When I was younger and more naive, I hesitated to demand that oral be reciprocated even if I happily went down, but if I found myself single now, no way would I want anything to do with a guy who refuses to reciprocate oral. It doesn't have to be a 1-for-1 deal every single time, but refusing to give oral…

"Gives you a blowjob... doesn't expect you to go down on her"

Nothing the neck-beards of reddit do surprises me anymore.

Yeah, after a long day of serving assholes their asshole pie, I can definitely see someone finally snapping and letting it all out, especially if he'd had a little to drink. Doesn't mean that what he did was okay, but I just can't get mad over this. The service industry is absolutely dehumanizing,

You're part of the problem.

I'm sorry, what now? And he's a lawyer, you say? As in, he went to law school and passed the bar and everything? I just... I don't know anymore.

That's how I took it. Yes, the result is laughable, but that's because we don't actually have sexualized clothes for straight men, or even a concept of how to sexualize straight men the way women are sexualized by fashion. I say straight, because I think the gay community is more willing to play with these boundaries.

Hahaha, you made me burst out laughing. +10 to you.

Sounds legit.

They also don't treat queer homeless people very well, which is a biggie considering how many queer kids end up homeless.

Have you asked any homeless people about their thoughts on this, or are you just assuming?

Have you asked any homeless people whether they give a shit or not?

Right...

Uuuuuugh, every thread has to have one of you. I'm probably wasting my time explaining this to you, but here goes. Just because Thing A is bad doesn't mean that Unrelated Thing B also isn't bad. If you broke your foot and complained about it, and your friend was like, "Well, I got fired," that doesn't mean that your…

No sweetheart. Your joke was stupid. Try again.

Reading Dworkin is all about context. You definitely cannot judge the value of her work, or her ideas, without reading the whole text, or at least a substantial excerpt. The quotes taken out of context completely distort her ideas, so don't place too much stock in them without reading the rest of the text.

True. Honestly, I find the whole attack on Dworkin and MacKinnon in this article completely gratuitous. I don't necessarily subscribe to their ideas, but the study doesn't have anything to do with them. They weren't commenting on individuals, but larger systems of oppression. They were also writing at a time when most…

Agreed. I'm pretty sad that the state of feminism today seems to be all about personal choice with no regard to other human beings. Like, if I choose to be a consumer of unethical products, no one should be able to say shit to me about supporting inhumane factory conditions in Third World countries because they're…

I guess Tracie really didn't like her first year Women's Studies class.
