No, you would be wrong. I don’t give a fuck what your cherry-picked links say. People require food, water, and the very most basic health care (setting a broken bone, for instance). Seeing a shrink and/or having your dick cut off are not medically necessary, and if you commit suicide because you don’t get either, it’s…

Yeah, this was one of my thoughts, too. If it’s something every service member is going to have access to, awesome.

I think the issue is that most people wouldn’t consider this medically necessary. Not by a long shot.

Just give her the damm surgery. She has a medically diagnosed condition. I don’t give a shit who pays for it, it’s the right thing to do.

What in the hell did DWTS think would happen?! It’s almost reckless putting Lochte, a known douche canoe on the show. Have you seen people here in America lately!? They’re out of their fucking minds.

It was my understanding that this deal was started before the Olympics. So, before he was "robbed at gunpoint". That said, these people need to take their anger to something more worthwhile, like all rapists and murderers walking free.

No shame there. Dumb athletes are often great in the sack - being athletic first and foremost and then lacking the intellectual landscape for boring hang ups.

I think it is very sad that none of you have anything better to do than pick on a young man who made a mistake and is dealing with his consequences from that mistake! He is WAY HOTTER than Michael Phelps btw....and he does not deserve to be ambushed on a tv show by 2 idiots just because they don’t like him. Life is…

He has shattered records. What I’m saying is, don’t devalue the achievements. If there was no Michael Phelps, Lochte would be Phelps.

I refreshed my news feed every 3 hours when the story kept changing. I was mad at Lochte then mad at the police for lying about them trashing the bathroom, then just numb and exhausted. Now I’ve forgiven him and want people to let him get on with his life so I can also move on. My relationship with this incident was…

Yeah, he’s one of the greatest swimmers in recorded history, a world record holder, and someone who achieved more in his chosen field than she ever has or will. He's a dope, but until you ever get as good at anything as he is, maybe don't say he's not worth anything. And, don't ever get caught telling a fib.

TBH I’m not even mad at the guy.

I know we’re mad at Ryan, but I (black! Like, militantly!) still would bang. Just had a sex dream about him, as his dumb hot face and stupid hard body have been all over media. Whew. Feels good to get that off my chest. (Penance recs welcome.)

Naw.

Is it weird that my first thought was wardrobe malfunction with a trouser snake cameo?

Or, maybe given Alexis’ fluidity with terms, he decided to keep it simple for the public instead of making this about pronouns and defaulted to “her”.

People having knee jerk reactions to some thing they have not really read and/or given themselves the time to adequately process and comprehend

Okay, then the rapist is pretty damn dumb to get high with his victim. But then again drug addicts aren’t really known for their common sense.

Right, I’m not saying he didn’t rape her, I’m just saying the entire story sounds a hell of a lot like something two meth heads would cook up after the fact to try and justify thing a guy up and murdering him.

I’m thinking it was more like:
