Men learning what rape is and how not to do it — THAT is what will stop rape.

That’s what bothers me most about well-meaning people who suggest that women “withhold” sex until we achieve equality. It just reinforces the toxic and outdated belief that women have sex for men, and not for their own enjoyment. That it’s something men have to wheedle out of women because men are sex-crazed animals,…

Why should women have to “withhold” sex? Sex is something women enjoy too. It’s not something women “give” to men.

Bah. There was this police drawing on a local news site - some suspect in a sexual assault. First comment: Pretty good-looking. Why would he need to rape anyone?

This is a piece Sia wrote herself on the topic of hiding her face. I know some people think you choose to be criticized as a public figure when you make music or make it big. I personally like that Sia chooses to hide her face and focus on her music. That way people can like or…

I admire her talent as a songwriter and singer. Why is she irritating?

She’s actually talking about tightlacing which is a body modification thing to get your waist as small as possible. Yes, it can move your ribs and organs around but the human body is pretty resilient.

a wide variety of intersex conditions can occur in which, to give a relevant example out of many, a woman may have XY chromosomes.

Badger, get the hell off my ship.

I think there are some other things like body size? Anyway, that description made me think of androgen insensitivity, which is a genetic abnormality that causes the body to basically ignore male hormones, so someone with an XY chromosome will be born looking to all appearances like a girl, and end up going through…

Skull characteristics like the size and prominence of the jaw, the breadth of the brow, torso proportions (due to the difference in musculature between human males and females), differences in teh growth of the lower limbs...

I guess this could be a case of natural transexualism? When lack of sensitivity to…

Doesn’t matter. If my husband and I had a baby using a sperm donor and then we divorced, it would still be his kid. She is a piece of shit!

I get it too but “not wanting to financially reward the...” is the same reason a lot of single parents, myself included, never receive a cent in child support. Trying to hurt the parent by punishing the child is a shitty thing to do, regardless of motivation.

But you wouldn’t, right? Because you are not a terrible person. Being tempted to do something, and actually doing it are two completely different things.

If a husband and wife conceive a child through a sperm donor and divorce later on he still has to pay child support.

Assuming there was a legally binding contract in place prior to insemination (which this ruling as well as multiple stories about the case indicate there is), it very much is her child.

Yes it is. She signed the contract to be responsible for the child.

Selling that shirt : not my jam, but okay.

To be fair, lots of companies are requiring slogans on T’s during the holidays. Like at Bloomingdale’s all the staff has to wear a shirt that says “Roofie my drink when I’m not looking”. It’s tongue in cheek.
