That is not true. That is a lie

The whole “a couple black guys are millionaires so obviously there is no racism anymore” isn’t true or a valid argument

Less’Nique.

Begging the question.

She thinks she is worth more than $500,000. She is probably right.

if people want to go for more money - have at it. But when you don’t get it, don’t lazily claim it’s because of both race and gender bias... while using examples that debunk your exact claim. She’s trying to publicly shame Netflix into giving her money for unsupported reasons, not because she’s worth it or has earned

I feel like this is an issue thats greatly exaserbated by the patriarchal bullshit of Christianity. Obviously men of all faiths are generally worthless but I feel like Christianity adds an extra layer of knuckle dragging to the equasion. Theres no other institution that goes to such great lengths to disguise sexist

“I get invited to private boxes twice a year.”

No, it isn’t. Most of those people, I guarantee, are from Delco or South Jersey. Possibly a few from NE Philly, which does house the worst the city has to offer.

Ahh yes, I must be a freak, Aziz, or some other insensitive prick because I said what happened to her wasn’t assault. Move on from trying to make some moral judgement of me, it’s not going to work.

She should have left... but I guess so should the women Louis c.k masturbated in front of

Retroactively? After you had sex? Interesting!

By that reasoning, a slender, small woman can also be considered a threat. So can we agree that both Ansari and Grace posed physical threats to each other if each were so inclined?

The OP talks about ‘super consensual’ as opposed to only ‘consensual’. So now, we’re going from ‘no means no’, to ‘only yes means yes’, to ‘super consensual’, to what exactly next? Maybe the new normal will be: I said yes, but afterwards I thought I should have said ‘no’, so now it’s a ‘no’ retroactively and you’ll

While I see that point, I still don’t understand how being relentless until someone succumbs to your will isn’t coercion.

Indeed. At some point there is a shared responsibility for occurrences like this. By not leaving and allowing the pestering to continue you are, in fact, endorsing it. If you want men to change their behavior you need to tell them what they’re doing wrong...

I like the idea that our morality is shifting away from this, because even as a man, I dislike the notion that sex is predicated on overcoming a woman’s resistance. This is an actual conversation I’ve had:

Explain to me how he coerced her. He has no power over her. He’s not in a position of authority over her. If his fame gave him power over her, that was her choice. Ansari is probably no more than 140 lbs soaking wet, so he’s not even a physical threat to her. She engaged in sexual activity with him. He never had

It isn’t illegal for me to trip a five year old and scream “asshole” in their face.

I am not a troll, I am a trying to demand answers or make excuses, what I want to know, is why, referencing #2 - she didn’t just leave? If it was bad sex, bad date, you leave. I’ve left bad dates, I’ve stopped bad sex. If someone keeps repeatedly trying to reengage in sex I dont want, I leave. She should have left. He
