If size didn't matter there wouldn't be weight classes in fighting sports.

So the litmus test for assault ... is based on the victims perceived ability to defend themselves? ... what if, in his own defense, JayZ would have knocked her teeth out?

They are both mean, violent drunks in my book.

I'm not equating them at all. There are different levels of violence. That is not up for debate. But attacking people is just wrong. It doesn't matter how long the attack was, or how big the attacker is or how big the victim is or who was present. An attack on another should be condemned. I never said the…

So it's ok for one person to attack another as long as the attacker is smaller? Cool, got it.

Actually, there's very little research on intimate partner violence within LGBTQ relationships, but much of the better research on it suggests that rates of violence within same-sex relationships are roughly the same as rates within heterosexual relationships. If lesbians are beating each other up at the same rates…

I agree it is horrible (although I don't believe in the death penalty) and that is even further compounded by the fact that this child was special needs. This woman is a full-fledged predator and I hope she spends many, many years in prison. What she did is indefensible and it is right to be outraged by the fact that…

Growing up I was told that girls mature faster than boys. If that is true then where the fuck is the outrage over a teenage boy being raped? If this were a 14 year old girl most of the comments would be calling for the death penalty

The truth is a few select assholes are responsible for those awful experiences. not all men. you can't demonize an entire gender for being at fault for not fixing the worlds problems.

OK, since I'm already getting my inbox flooded elsewhere, why not double the fun? (Note: feel free to ignore this, I'm venting because I'm in a shitty mood.)

It's not usually anger at women only spaces, but that feminists have destroyed most all men only spaces. Thus we have women's colleges, gyms, etc. while all of the corresponding spaces for men have been destroyed. Of course the feminists have "good" reasons for doing THAT as well.

The difference between Rodger, who killed. and the "everyday sexist" who slaps, grabs, and berates is a difference of degree, not of kind.Finally, do not "other" Rodger by saying he murdered people because he was mentally ill.

I feel it would be highly insensitive and inflammatory to leave your first paragraph the way it is. No one from wizardchan, save a few bad apples, sympathizes with Rodger's mass murder. I'm sure there have been just as many bad apples in the jezebel community that have advocated castrating/shooting large groups of…

>I made the first move with at least half the guys I've dated.

I hadn't even read read that he was seeing a therapist yet. Well it's good to know his parents were reacting to the situation at least- for all the good it did.

The difference between whom? I wasn't making a comparison. Between feminists and MRA's you mean? MRA's don't engage in violence, those that do are not MRA's.

Honestly, after reading through to several news articles and links, I just feel really super bad for his parents (and the families of the people he killed). It appears that he was seeing several therapists, and his own parents even called the cops on him about a week ago because they were so worried about what he…

It's a real shame that this is going to get lost under all the feminism vs MRA bullshit. Everyone wants a fight it seems, even over the corpses of innocents.

Yeah, like when that chick accused kobe bryant of rape and swore she would never cheat on her boyfriend, and then it came out that she had fucked three other guys that day. that totally was completely irrelevant.

The Standard Hotel can sue the worker for causing reputational harm to their business. Celebrities (with their big wallets) are much less likely to stay there now because they will be nervous that their "indiscretions" will be sold to the tabloids. This security worker has no assets I'm sure (aside from the $250K he…
