Not every thought absolutely must be expressed via group chat at work. Lol.

I feel like I need to keep spelling it out for you in even more clear terms. Game of thrones isn’t about rape specifically. This song is. “Game of Thrones” doesn’t mean “rapist” in this context or otherwise. In the song, the “bed intruder” is a rapist. Lol

Lol. Why is this so important to you that you refuse to see / acknowledge the obvious? You’ve read the lyrics. It’s about rape. End of story. You don’t think people are laughing at lines like “they’re raping everybody out here”?

The song doesn’t just contain rape. It’s about rape. Based on an actual attempted rape. There is a difference here.

Angie uses the press very strategically in times like this—she is personally very deliberate about crafting and maintaining her image. Who do you think TMZ and People are getting their info from?

A relative of mine lost the love of his life because he was an alcoholic. The straw that broke the camel’s back was an incident where he accidentally shut his daughter’s hand in a sliding glass door and because he was so drunk, he kept “opening” the door the wrong way, thereby adding to the injury by pressing harder

To respond to your list:

The interview with Antoine was about the attempted rape of his sister. Feel free to look it up and refresh your memory. It was about a rapist. The song based off the interview is about rape. Here are the lyrics:

This is not the same thing. “Bed Intruder” is literally a euphemism for “rapist.” “Game of Thrones” is not. Game of thrones includes rape. The “bed intruder” is a rapist.

We know the context of the song. Goldilocks is a fairy tale for children. That is not what the event and the subsequent song was about and we all know that.

I get what you’re saying about insults, but don’t necessarily agree. Insulting your best friend by saying “oh my god, you’re such a girl” or “that’s so gay” is not ok, even if he is you’re friend. Calling him “oh my god, you’re such a coward” would be ok in the same instances (according to me, feel free to contradict

I’m gay and know all the jokes and agree with you up to a certain point; no the jokes don’t hurt me, but i’ll still point out that when they’re said as an insult they’re not OK until complete societal equality has been achieved...

The song isn't called game of thrones. It is called bed intruder. Please tell me, what is a bed intruder?

What exactly do you think a bed intruder is?

Oh boo hoo. He was tough enough to make rape jokes in the workplace, he can sit and deal with the consequences. Especially when the “consequences” consisted of six whole sentences in a chat log.

She described a hostile work environment. One of the things she cites in that description is the fact that she’s the only woman on the team.

Starred for perspective! I was a floor/shift manager for a bunch of pretty crass receiving guys who made the lives of the female staffers hell (physical and verbal). Even after few were let go (zero tolerance for physical but it sure took a hell of a time to prove), one incident similar to this one comes to mind. It

She clearly describes that incident as the straw that broke the camel’s back.

The coworker who first made the joke apologized, repeatedly assuring her that something like this wouldn’t happen again. But his assurances did little to instill confidence. This wasn’t the first time Danielle had allegedly seen something like this happen on her team, nor was it the first time she complained that the

Maybe there have been a lot of incedents along these lines before this, and this was just the final straw for her?
