That separate information might have been interesting for certain purposes, but this is still valuable information without a comparison to how many people are (or, when directly presented with a parallel question, will claim to be in order to legitimize their homophobia...) uncomfortable seeing a man and a woman…

Yeah? Who has experience of what most men feel about most women (including the nearly half that’s over fifty)? No-one.

I totally agree that there are people who find heavier women very attractive, and that private attractions don’t always line up with publicly expressed preferences, but there are enough men who don’t that once you combine them with men who aren’t attracted to older women (and to all the other preferences that aren’t…

Some questions were, but the question “would you be uncomfortable seeing a same-sex couple holding hands” is very specific and isn’t open to an extreme interpretation and 29% of non-LGBTQ-self-described respondents still answered that they’d be uncomfortable.

It’s not about a semantic meaning or a word, it was the entirety of the sentence that held that Barton had made a sex tape, when she hadn’t. There’s nothing meh about keeping the details of a sex-crime correct, especially when commenting on the victim’s behavior (or supposed behavior).

Saying “I don’t know why people STILL make sex tapes or take nude photos because inevitably this shit happens, but I still feel bad for her [Barton]” expressed the opposite.

What do you mean you don’t know why people still make sex tapes? She just had sex and someone recorded it without her knowledge or consent in order to threaten her with it.

A lot of men, maybe, depending on how what you consider a lot, but most?

There isn’t any workaround that wouldn’t fundamentally alter (and reduce) the job responsibilities of the aide role, especially on the campaign trail. Plus, laying down ground rules for employees of one sex and not the other is in itself discriminatory.

Kenya Barris isn’t.

Did you mean to reply to me? Or to RandomHookup?

Because a top aide would certainly have meals alone with Pence as part of their job duties.

No, that was the general you. That is a thing that plenty of people say and mean and I was commenting on how weird that is. If you re-read, I said that it’s so strange to me “when people say that”, not that you mentioned it.

Sadly, I’m pretty sure that the woman’s sexual consent isn’t necessary for what Pence and his type consider “temptation”. Groping (and worse) is primarily seen as an issue of adultery in some Christian subcultures.

Those aides are a great example of a publicly-funded job that Pence must, as a part of this rule, discriminate on the basis of sex when hiring and promoting.

It’s so strange to me when people say that. Somewhere between 40% and 45% of American women are over fifty. More than a third of American women are in the BMI obese category. Not that there aren’t people who find older women and heavier women very attractive, but do you really think that most men want to have sex with…

When the Pences’ arrangement which works for them means discriminating against women in the workplace, it’s not just right but necessary to mock Pence for it.

No. The correct response was “no, he still would have been arrested”. “The lolz” or “lobbing a turd in the general direction of OK republicans” isn’t a reason to be Trump-ishly “post-truth”.

Shampoo’s one thing, but do people really want their body wash to be sulfate-free?

Someone around the late twenties. Definitely an adult. In context, it’s pretty believable to me that he was controlling and didn’t consult her on decisions and that that included the horrible decision to pay someone to attack Kerrigan.
