I think so too. Although,part of it is also that Abnousse Shalmani, one of the signatories, “has previously compared feminism to Stalinism.” So you know, part of it is also that some of these people are assholes.

I wonder if part of this is about women who would rather believe they were seduced than assaulted. It’s often easier to act like you were a willing participant than accept the reality. And if you are a woman of a certain age, it had to be damn near impossible to escape predators.

The other thing that kills me is the inherent shame and guilt that, of course, must fall on the CHILD because of bullshit Christian teachings. Honestly, like whenever anyone wrings their hands and frets over why I am now an atheist, I really just wanna answer that it’s because I fucking went to bed every night as a

When I was 7-8 years old, my dad was the pastor of a small little church in Wilmington NC. There was a man in his 20s who was very involved in the church. He had dark hair and dark eyes and he was tall and slender with olive skin and I remember thinking that he was very cute. It should all have been very innocent, but

Old enough to be in a position of authority and coerce a teenager into a sex act. What is this question?

Funny how the hammer came down on an Asian-American fraternity when all of these white boys are out here violating the rules of their colleges and fraternities left and right.

Because they couldn’t make Black Widow movie.

Before we get the Oprah 2020 shirts printed, I just want to remind everyone that celebrities don’t necessarily make good politicians. I’m sure if I thought real hard I could probably come up with a couple examples...

Yeah. I didn’t know she had aristocratic in-laws but I can’t say I’m shocked at the news she does have them.

Can someone explain the Notting Hill tweet- who it’s by, why it matters?

Honestly, I think it was quicker than that. In the pilot, Britta was a cool, self-aware, cynical but politically-active adult. LITERALLY starting the second episode, she became this gullible, kneejerk-leftist, blatantly hypocritical straw-feminist. Annie didn’t fare much better except that, as a not-explicit-feminist,

I loved the shade from Ganz: “I don’t listen to your podcast.” That cut him and she knows it—and what did he expect?! If my gross former boss roundabout-asked me to listen to his podcast to...get a better idea of his headspace when he was treating me like a subhuman? I’d drive to his house and spit in his face.

Have you seen how a certain subset of men respond to women on the internet? You brave enough to be doxxed and threatened?

You’re not a king on a hilltop, nor a beast in a labyrinth. Isolation isn’t always best. Connection breeds empathy. Empathy allows growth.

Reads like he wanted to take the moral high-ground and then got annoyed he couldn’t take it.

I don’t think it’s going to happen. She’s essentially saying if you can erase the way you made me feel, we’d be good again but that’s impossible, isn’t it?

Finding your self-esteem after dealing with an abusive boss takes a long time. At least it did for me. Thank god for therapy.

The stats in the original piece back that up, I think it said something like 90% of women who were in prison for killing their partners were victims of abuse from that partner. I can’t help but think that there’s something cultural about the justice system where we are okay with women being victims but not okay with

Don’t sleep on Ashanti! What’s Luv was, is and always will be a bop!
