Hah. What does it even mean to "deserve" compassion? If we made that a prerequisite, nobody would ever get any compassion!

Yeah it seemed like a stretch to me as well. I don't even believe that men who are more 'violent' are necessarily more prone to rape since it's a very specific crime. I know guys who live for bar fights and throwing down but would never force themselves on a woman.
I honestly don't see how you can be a feminist if you believe that all men want to have sex with any available woman and that women can avoid rape by picking smaller, weaker men to date. I've yet to encounter a woman who characterizes the harassment described in this article as "a lot of men sending messages asking to…
I'm honestly not trying to derail. I just don't think your point can be made without stats and data. There are no data being presented. Just assertions, again and again, about mate-selection based on testosterone. Which is biological determinism. Hence the reason I responded using an argument based on why using…
Do you think those things never happened when abortion was illegal?
Also this whole idea that it's only "big" and "alpha-males" that rape you is total BS. Rape/sexual assault can be done by anybody regardless of size and how "macho" they are. There are plenty of short statured guys that sexually assault women. Seriously, no offense, but what world do you live in maximinus?
I'm very sorry that you and the others who've posted have had negative experiences with Indian men in the past. On the other hand, as an Indian man, a feminist, and a regular reader of this site, this discussion makes me wince. Fact: there are shitty and not-so-shitty people out there from every culture and creed.…
Ugh whatever. I, a woman, have enjoyed casual sex plenty. I do not enjoy being bluntly harassed by men who will not take no for an answer.
This is, actually, also a recurring theme on here. I'm constantly shocked at how vindictive people can be about former prisoners on here, and how little forgiveness is given.
It worked, too, because I still can't do my own hair or make my lunch...
As far as I know no one has yet discovered any neurological basis for ADHD. I wish they would figure that shit out too, cause I am pretty sure my son has it. I hope it's not cause I let him watch "non-educational" cartoons lol.
This, like the thigh gap, also has a lot to do with the way your skeleton is built, too. They really aren't that uncommon on thin to "average" sized bodies.
If you think this is overkill, watch a toddler with his new baby sibling sometime. The smothering, unwanted hug is a common way kids show dominance/ownership over new siblings. They know hitting/biting/pushing is off limits, but sometimes they get irritated or jealous, so they'll go in for this totally unloving and…
Seriously!
This face is the greatest reaction I can imagine. I really wish I could have heard his thoughts at this moment in time. "What do we do? Do we ignore it? Do we leave? This is so uncomfortable. I just wanted to watch the game. Uch, drunk people."
Ok, yes, I understand why one would use caps to stress a word. This is a concept I understand. What I do not understand is why you would stress "BY" in that sentence. Typically, one uses caps/italics to stress a word in comparison to another word that goes unsaid, but that might otherwise be expected to take the…
This is true. I saw Jaws at five and had a nervous breakdown in the bathtub with my mom when she started humming the theme song and attacked me with my Pink Panther sponge puppet. #truestory
As a BBC licence fee payer, sometimes I worry that my licence fee is squandered.
No no, they're totally fine if they keep to their own kind. It just doesn't make any sense why a tall woman would need to be around a short man when there are so many other tall men she could be associating with to make us all feel more comfortable.
