it's interesting that one of the HuffPo Canada editors is known as one of these guys. Doesn't respect boundaries, harasseses young women over which she has authority. Interns of Toronto, you know what I'm talking about.

oh my gosh, I just read this. How horrible. I would be really upset after that... It sounds like trauma. And actually, being completely helpless in a threatening situation is the prime cause of PTSD. Don't blame yourself! I hope your dog takes a shit on that stupid rug.

thank you!! This advice was well-meaning but doesn't take things like race, socioeconomic status, and COPS FEEL THREATENED BY PEOPLE THEY STEREOTYPE into account. Smh. Safety first, people.

!!! Your trip to Tangier sounds horrible. What time of year did you go? I was there in January traveling with another female friend and I don't think we were harassed at all.

You need to learn about dashes.

i think that was a canned, mass-administered response too.

clearly, you look like Angelina Jolie in Playing By Heart. The only reasonable explanation.

oh, what is that, a goblet of haters' tears? Chin-chin.

Thank you for sharing your story. I think this is one of the saddest posts I have read in a long time (let it be known that I completely identify with it - I went to school I'm Sweden and dropped out! I had a part time job as a florist and strongly considered going into it when I thought I couldn't hack academia due…

oh my fucking god. I had no idea I remembered that until you said it. A parrot and a palm tree because *of course* parrots and palm trees. Thank you.

I have never commented on a jez article so this is weird and scary to me. But I had to bc I have an idea: whenever you need to educate your daughter on something that you (sadly, rightly) believe will be reported to CPS, go to her doctor first. Not to get them to explain it for you, but to get them to say, "Yes, it…
