Yeah I’m Team Taylor on this one. Given the astronomical size of Kanye’s ego, I highly doubt he called Taylor Swift to “clear” anything with her before releasing it. That’s almost laughable in how unlikely it is. It’s also hilarious that he thinks he made her famous - exhibit 1,792 of his over-inflated ego.

Because if a woman gives you permission to call another woman a bitch then it must be ok. Or something.

Kanye "asked his wife for her blessings" to... call Taylor Swift a bitch?

If we rejected or accepted studies based on how they were reported in the popular media, no scientific progress would be made. Ever.

It’s not a trend! It’s a goddamn scientific study.

I’m baffled and dismayed by all the negative responses.

It’s small but it’s designed as a proof-of-principle or pilot study, not a large scale epidemiological one. Basically you run a small study to see if your hypothesis holds water and then scale up if it does (like experimenting on animals or ex vivo before doing a human study).

Unlike many (many many many) birthing trends, I’m actually cool with this one. I mean, I get being squicked out, but the idea has some solid merit. Most babies pass through the vagina and get well and truly rubbed in its juices during the birthing process; that’s not gross, right? Why is this? Colonization by the…

Dude just stop. Only a whiny little boy can’t face the cold hard truth of our gender- we have a large, long, and statistically verified history of violence against women we’re attracted to. Women don’t. It’s us. Our problem. Sitting here thinking the stupid things you do is cowardly. A grown adult acknowledges the…

You’re being deliberately obtuse. It’s apparent that the quote is comparing the ways that men and women relate to each other, not that any man a woman meets is going to kill her. When guys go on first dates, their friends don’t tell them to text when they’re home safe, or advise that they go to a public place.

Exactly. All men are capable of it and we don’t necessarily know the difference between a ‘good man’ and a ‘bad man’ at first glance. Hell, it can take years to figure it out and many women die before they do figure it all out. And if we do make the mistake of trusting and get hurt? It was our fault for being so…

Aw, shit yeah, bro! Not all men! You’re so brave!

It’s really simple buddy. Women are murdered by men for “rejecting them” vastly more often than men are murdered by women for “rejecting them”.

Candy is now going to tell a new story about the nice lesbian couple they met in New Hampshire, and how she and Ben managed to help you see the error of your ways by taking you out for ice cream and a long chat.

Will this never cease to be the truth??

“This is me, Candy Carson, and some chick I used to work with”

Typical Candy, always stirring up drama!

I believe older Democrat men also prefer Hillary rather than Bernie according to polling?

I, for one, am glad he didn’t apologize. I’d rather no apology than an “I’m sorry you’re offended” b.s. apology. Show your true colors and own it so we know what sort of asshole to not vote in to any other office.
