He was calling her crazy well before he decided to sleep with her. He knew exactly what he was doing.

When someone's behavior is crossing boundaries and making you uncomfortable, I think you're just fine calling them either crazy OR creepy. However, when someone is crossing your boundaries and making you uncomfortable, do you usually invite them out on a date? Have sex with them? If this dude was "genuinely worried"

Dammit. My prom pics aren't on the computer and I know I'm gonna be too lazy to scan them for this. But my date and I raided the school drama shed and came out with fanTASTic outfits; a headdress and a golden vest for him, a sari and a bright red bonnet for me, and roller skates for the both of us (they made us take

I've always found the "live life without any regrets" cliche a little irritating. I mean, I get not wallowing in regret, but if wouldn't literally experiencing no regret whatsoever just equal "Don't learn from your mistakes"?

It's because "creep" is most often used to describe a man who is acting creepy, while "crazy is often used to describe behavior that isn't crazy at all, like in this article. If a woman's dating a jerk she tends to at least acknowledge that that's a bad thing; lots of men talk about dating crazy women almost proudly,

You really can't think of any reason people might break up other than one of them is insane?

It's awesome how he lies to her at the end by telling her she's not just another piece of ass and he's just 'dating a couple of people'. And then when she calls him, fully expecting him to answer because HE SAID THEY ARE DATING, he'll call her crazy.

The difference is that 'creepy' is mostly applied to guys who are making unwanted advances. "Crazy" is being applied to women that the men are DATING. If you think someone's crazy and don't want to date them, I don't have a huge problem with that; the issue is if you're seeing someone and having sex with them but

I think the key difference here is that 'creepy' is mostly applied to guys who are making unwanted advances. "Crazy" is being applied to women that the men are DATING.

I think objectification means that you treat the person like they are only capable of being a sex object in any realm of their existence. Just showing someone on video having sex, if you're not objectifying them otherwise, is just showing someone who is having sex at the time, and it's what you're interested in about

What you have probably read are arguments about how BMI is a bullshit measure of health and it is completely possible to be in the 'obese' category if you live a healthy lifestyle, and how our society demonizes junk food to a ridiculous extent. Neither of which are in any way arguments that it's a good idea to drink

. . .and that's why porn can be feminist. They seem to be arguing that if you're on camera having sex, you're being objectified no matter what.

Nobody said that there's LOTS of feminist porn out there, just that it can- and should- exist. There are lots of women (myself included) who like watching people have sex but don't like it to be oppressive and creepy and exploitative. Unless your argument is that it's inherently wrong to enjoy watching other people

"it often still manages to treat women as strictly sexual objects". . .

"A man who can't recognize when a woman is out of his league is a creep". Nope, sorry. Not what a creep is. Saying shit like shit gives creedence to all the crap the MRA assholes are saying about "it's just a word for a guy a woman doesn't think is hot". A man who rubs his junk on you at a club is a creep, yes. A man

That guy might not be a Grade-A creep. . .but he really ought to know that women don't appreciate compliments that are shouted at them from the window of a car. That's creepy behavor, regardless of whether he's a creep in all aspects of his life. If men don't want to be creeps, they need to be conscious of the context

"Oh and are men allowed by you to have 'boundaries' that a woman might 'cross'?

They were 'randomly' called creepy for not being hot? Like totally out of the blue? Women chased them down on the street and said "Hey, uggo, you're a real creep!"

It certainly would be ridiculous of the Health At Every Size people you're making fun of claimed that it's fine to drink 2 gallons of coke a day. Fortunately there's not even a single comment on this thread making that argument. Way to try and and make a completely unrelated, legitimate argument look silly without

I could handle that guy on the right. ANY ol' time.
