My wife was 55 when her “mother” told ME (out of the damn blue) “I don’t care if you tell her this or mot, but she’s adopted. We adopted her the day she was born, and I destroyed all the papers, so she’ll never find her parents.”

While I generally agree with the blog, it is an apples and slightly different apples comparison. To use an analogy, it would be the difference between highlighting a Jewish athlete vs highlighting a Jewish athlete who does not compete on Shabbat.

It’s complicated- black men weren’t being lynched because white women were offended that they looked at them, it was white men thinking white women belonged to them, and punishing black men for looking at their trophies. I don’t really believe black men have it better than white women, I think they mostly face the…

Incorrect. If she changes her mind but fails to tell the male with whom she *initiated* sex, he would not be a rapist.

Are you downplaying the significance of public harassment? Of people creating a hostile environment?

The comments so far are just so bizarre. If this actually happened like the plaintiff purports in the lawsuit, then the situation is fucked up and needs to be addressed. You have a culture where someone can shout an accusation on twitter and fuck up your life just like that. And even after being found innocent…

This is Deravis Caine Rogers, by the by, so we don’t forget who this shithead murdered for no reason.

I cant figure out who is photobombing her photo. And now that I think of it, SHE is photobombing the breakdancer’s photo. Bitch.

The attitude I’m referring to isn’t exclusive to rape cases.

I know what you mean. Sometimes it works (Cosby case) but sometimes it’s so...

She was wrong about Cosby but is right about the social media/internet fueled rush to judgment/mob mentality that I’m uncomfortable with as well.

This woman retains internal testicles that give her an unfair advantage over other female athletes.

As far as I’m aware, Caster’s testosterone level is three times that of the average woman. If you’re going to allow her to race against women without taking any hormone blockers, what’s the point in separating sport by sex in the first place?

white and male? in an attempt to draw up a familiar and hated target (on this board at least) you also silence the rest of us bernie supporters that arent white males. lets leave the bigotry and misandry out of this conversation. we’ve had enough of it

Kanye and Kim might include showing that Taylor Swift could not have reasonably believed the conversation to be private.

It seems odd to allow a wolf to herd you miles away from your car, the means of escape. I can’t quite picture doing that or responding that way. Something is off.

Update: lady sees wolf, runs and gets lost for 12 hours. Hears a bear growl, runs again, finds her car, makes up excitingly implausible story.

As a Canadian, I feel like I can say this is the result of too much cheap beer and picking the wrong wild mushrooms.

Correct. This story smells to high heaven of bullshit.

I find this narrative difficult to believe unless the wolf was suffering from an illness. I have encountered a small number of wolves camping in Northern Ontario over the years. They have always noticed the people noise and smell and left very quickly. I see their tracks and scat far more often than I actually see…
