Warner should not be suffering for Cosby’s crimes, but the ultimate responsibility for those crimes and their repercussions lies on Cosby himself. Cosby’s actions created a situation that directly harms Warner financially, and it seems to me that he should be held liable.

I absolutely disagree with the idea that any of these men’s work should be pulled off the air, because the vast majority of people who helped create those works are not criminals and abusers.

The article doesn’t even mention whether or not her phone was locked. It’s not hard to shoulder-surf a lock code.

As a Valentine’s gift. Feb 23 was 4 days after the superintendent heard about this. So that photo was on her phone for less than 5 days, and almost certainly wasn’t there during whatever previous time she allowed a student to use her phone.

There is no evidence that her phone contained a nude photo in the past when she allowed the students to use it. She has every right to expect her personal phone to not be stolen and her privacy to not be violated. What if it was her purse they got into? When I was in 8th grade, some students thought it would be funny…

The superintendent said she had allowed the students to use the phone “in the past”. I doubt she had those photos on there when she let the students use it, and she was likely present and watching during any activities they did on it then. There was no reason for her to have to monitor its current contents for student…

“I’m girly” or “I’m bleeding.” I’ve never been one to waste syllables.

This is the wrong story about Mississippi. This BS happens every year, and no one ever notices. It should stop, but it’s not nearly as serious as what’s going on in the legislature right now.

That is way oversimplified. The human body is a complex machine, and it can and will adjust its base calorie expenditure. Hormones and other internal chemical reactions also play a part. You can count your calories, estimate your exercise burn, keep a fitbit or a HRM, but you can never account for all the intricacies…

This is all so true. Yes, higher body fat percentage is correlated with certain poor health markers. *But* you cannot read an individual’s health status from their body size or shape, and the correlation isn’t strong enough to even make a good educated guess. Some of the fittest people I know are fat, and I have quite…

The Equal Rights Amendment states simply that equality of rights shall not be denied or abridged on the basis of sex.

This, this, this, this, this!

Telling the truth doesn’t absolve you of guilt. If you feel better or worse because of telling the truth, that’s something that’s within you and not anyone else’s concern. Your own feelings about your guilt are largely unrelated to this problem.

You don’t get to decide for the other person if the relationship is damaged. The other person probably already considers the relationship damaged if cheating has occurred, or else why would you lie to begin with? By failing to tell them true information you *know* would change their opinion of both you and the…

If you are lying to your partner and violating boundaries you committed to maintaining, the relationship is broken. YOU HAVE ALREADY BROKEN YOUR PARTNER’S TRUST.

They can, but very few do when it comes to this.

Your mental gymnastics may make you feel better about lying, but a relationship involves two equal participants and you don’t get to make that decision for the other person. You set the rules in the beginning about what boundaries you are both expected to keep. If you violate your partner’s trust, they deserve the…

*applause*

So very, very this. If you’ve made a commitment to a partner to live within certain boundaries, and then violate them without disclosing this to the partner, you’ve just changed your entire relationship to a non-consensual one. This is never okay.

Oh god no. The correct answer is you ALWAYS tell the partner. An equal partner deserves to make their decision to stay in the relationship or leave it if the agreed-upon boundaries have been violated, and not telling them denies them the agency to do so.
