Nobody cares what you find attractive. That’s not what this is about.

I don’t think anyone wants Katie Roiphe or those French women included in their wave, do they? To me the French women are just the older iteration of Ivanka Trump type “empowerment” self-proclaimed feminists, they’re not radical thought leaders.

Third wave is mostly considered to be “choice feminism”. Like “I choose my choice so it is ok, and it has nothing to do with the patriarchy if I do porn/get plastic surgery/pretend to be dumb to get men etc”.

Whose life was derailed by a murky and anonymous accusation? I know I probably shouldn’t respond to your ass but I really wanna know.

“The majority of women in the workplace are not tender creatures and are largely adept at dealing with all varieties of uncomfortable or hostile situations,” Roiphe wrote in the New York Timesin 2011. “Show me a smart, competent young professional woman who is utterly derailed by a verbal unwanted sexual advance or…

Unsurprisingly, class plays a huge role. And wealthy women beat the US average by a wide margin.

Well on the plus side that average includes all of us schmucks, not just people with world class health care like Justice Ginsberg has

I’m more interested what he thinks about the cops that worship the Punisher and put his logo on their cop cars. That’s the most horrifying one for me.

One would think the hate speech was evidence enough.

Jesus. America needs to take a cue from Germany and shut Nazi speech down. We already have hate crime laws and anti-hate speech laws and I simply do not understand why these aren’t enforced against Naziism.

What a sad way for this girl to find out her parents were right about this boy being a monster. I hope he survives to face a trial and prison time.

While white privilege is a thing, and Kalief was utterly fucked over by the system for being black and poor, I’m not quite sure this is the best case to use as an example.

Why are men so desperate to disappoint two women at the same time?

When I was having doubts about my ex’s feelings for me, you’d be surprised how many friends, feminists, and family members tried to talk me out of my doubts. My parents were the worst of all. My ex didn’t help because when I brought up the notion that maybe he didn’t like me all that much and we should break up, he…

It helps* to remember that anyone who tells you to dismiss your gut is someone who makes the world accommodating for abusers and criminals.

We (as women) are so socialized to disbelieve or dismiss our guts. Even now, as a grown-assed woman, if I state a ‘nope’ position based on what my gut tells me, I get pushback from women as often as men. “I’m sure it’s not so bad!” “Give him a chance!” “But he’s Faaaaaamily.” You don’t even need to ask how often my…

The second piece of advice after “run” is “but know that very few people will help you and those in power will actively make it harder.”

Friend, please read up on the origins of law enforcement agencies in the states. They were slavecatchers. The institution of law enforcement was *designed* to do exactly what it’s doing: maintain White supremacy. When it became socially unacceptable to do it outright, laws and language changed to give policing a…

Those police officers should be in prison for endangering the welfare of a minor and for kidnapping.

Really, REALLY disturbing, this guy’s whole disgusting life. I just followed that KyCIR rabbit hole too, thanks to savvy WaPo comments:
