Ugh ok. Here. I made you a flowchart.

I don’t think it’s really that hard to know how to treat someone else like a person, rather than an object. As someone above says, the majority of women don’t go to work looking for a date. I think that the majority of these problems would be solved if straight men started treating their female colleagues like other…

ARGH! I like to give people a chance but THIS is why I only see women gynecologists.

Yeah, it’s like the army thing. “If we hire women, they will get harassed!” translates to “don’t hire women,” rather than “don’t condone a culture of sexual harassment.”

That breaks my heart, though, because when they go on they will face this type of nonsense.

Yeah, I’d go with this one.

I actually saw her trying to appease this young woman voter until she interrupted her and it became clear that she wasn’t going to believe anything that Clinton said. At which point she got defensive, which was probably not wise, but I’m not sure what she was supposed to do.

This is extremely clever on his part. If he were to acknowledge outright that he is supported by white supremacists and that he knows who they are, he alienates non-white-supremacists by his tacit support of their cause. If he says “No, I don’t support them,” he alienates the white supremacists, who he has been…

I am not a physicist but I worked for an academic physics & astronomy department and there was even some of this bull WITHIN THE DEPARTMENT. Like, Astronomy (where more women are) is not real science, but physics is. Ugh.

Oh my goddd yes this is exactly what it is like rn

I would totally join a group like that!

Were you able to vote in the 2008 primary? One of the reasons I’ve been feeling so frustrated is because male Obama supporters (and I voted for him in the general election twice and I love love love him as our president) condescended to me in pretty much the same way as male Sanders supporters are doing now. Minus the…

Oh my god, Stassa, thank you so so much for this. There is nothing more frustrating than being repeatedly condescended to and then told you’re crazy for thinking that you’re being condescended to. And I hate HATE Gloria Steinem and Madeleine Albright right now for being yet another thing that Berners can hold against…

I waffled for a while in the past few weeks and deeply questioned myself. Bernie seemed so much more left! WAS I, HAD I been supporting Clinton because she’s a woman? And then I realized that I support Clinton for so many reasons but the fact that she’s a woman bolsters my support of her. And I nearly cried just now…

I have seen enough dramas to know that someone got pregnant from the affair and now there is a secret child. Even if you are both men or both women or whatever

Because they know we’ll all turn on each other rather than asking them to stop imposing weird restrictions on their passengers. The law of airlines.

Exactly! There has never been a time when I thought, “You know, instead of chilling with my book and my boarding pass, I’d rather drag my suitcase all around the terminal.”

I’ve said this before and will keep saying again and again to anyone who will listen: 99% of carry-on angst will magically disappear if airlines stop charging for the first checked bag. Everyone is bringing the biggest, rolliest carryon that they can because they don’t want to pay $25 to check their bag. If you allow…

So. many. questions. about that dead fish. So many!

I also see people throw things at the trash without seeing if it actually makes it. It never does. And they just keep walking, assholes.
