So unfair, and worthy of an HR complaint for hostile work environment.

I'm so sorry that happened and that your school contributed to your assault. So not your fault, but obviously traumatizing.

What I thought of is that it's much harder to find clothes that fit for a sleek professional look, not a gaping over buttons falling out type look.

Amen sister! And people always act so shocked when I say I don't like having them!

I hate having bags of fat jiggling off me at every movement and always being annoying. I sleep in bras. I would give up pants, undies, even hoodies before giving up bras.

They totally look like penises. Slimy horse penises.

That makes total sense! I feel the same way about raising my daughter having been a girl. Luckily for me since I was that way too, she's not into the whole gender role thing and does more "boy" stuff than "girl" stuff.

I agree that boys and girls generally gravitate to different types of play, but that lots of options without gender judgment/expectation are good. why must men have daughter to suddenly get that girls are people, or that they face a daily onslaught of cultural prescriptives that reinforce super retro roles?

Held it down and molested it??! Wtf is that supposed to mean?!

My 4 year old daughter plays elaborate role-playing gamwe where she is Baby Spider-Man and can only shoot baby-sized webs.

So are you thinking about how to resist the cultural pressures on boys now? Because it's there and powerful as well.

I would be pretty enraged if I were his wife. Of course she married this "nice guy" who seems well-intentioned but clueless, so maybe she won't be mad. His daughter, once old enough to google, is going to love how her poop taught him about genitalia, since babies and women's reproductive bits are identical.

I went to Wesleyan and was part of a fabulous (CO-ED!!!!) Greek organization. Please don't tar all Greek organizations with the brush of "rapey frat bros—" Alpha Delta Phi at Wesleyan is feminist and sex-positive. Our house is right across from Beta, which definitely had more of a fratty vibe. Maybe co-ed rather than

Slow clap to you! Well-done!

I really admire your response. It was sympathetic while still totally making your line clear.

Thank you for sharing this. I'm sorry for your loss.

Careful—he might Hulk-out and attack...

Fighting back in any way (hitting, yelling, trying to leave, etc.) is a challenge to the abuser's dominance and control. One of the many reasons that dv victims fear leaving.

Male ducks are notoriously rapey too

There there. Just let Daddy tell you what to do and don't worry your pretty little head because you might get wrinkles and be less decorative!
