But all this to say, I’d wager there a scores of men the same age as Parker who wouldn’t consider themselves rapists, but in reality they are.

I wouldn’t claim to know exactly why particular rape victims report or don’t, but Parker’s victim’s attack was different from the common experiences you mention in a few ways: it involved being penetrated by multiple men at the same time, one of whom was a stranger; she went to bed alone (the men were in another room…

his co-writer was found guilty, and only later acquitted because he and parker intimidated the witness so she wouldnt testify again. doesnt that speak a lot about his feelings on this whole thing/rape as a whole that he’s still friends and working with the guy?

The RNC is fucking insane.

“He’ll be required to complete an alcohol-treatment program, whereupon his weapons-misconduct charge will be expunged from his record."

Or they could hypnotize the turtle.

I do not buy the whole idea that when parents proudly make awful decisions that lead to their children’s deaths (like leaving loaded guns lying around, failing to get the child proper medical attention, etc.) the death should be the parents’ punishment. These parents neglected their child to the point that he died,…

Point of interest from here:

She should have pepper sprayed his eyes out and been like, “What? I’m being Amanda Waller, you fucking baby.”

Must be nice to simply enjoy a superhero movie that represents you.

As an Asian, I don’t need you who isn’t Asian telling anyone what Asians do or don’t want, especially since its clear that you don’t really give a shit about this issue.

“...for those social justice warriors...”

You hit the free square in dipshit comment bingo.

So, I was not gonna reply. Then, I was gonna reply defending Marvel. But then I thought about it. And here is what I have to say:

Exactly. This kind of assumption always comes from someone who doesn’t want to hear about minority experiences. Its an attempt to silence *anyone* who supports someone not in the ruling class. I’m sure there are ppl who would rather fight their own battles, or not fight at all and be left alone. I respect that choice…

No. No one should be silent simply because it’s not “their problem.” That’s a ridiculous position to take. There’d be no progress if most people thought that way. Especially when the offended group in question has clearly spoken out about it.

Actually, we do want people speaking about this issue, keep it up io9. Asian representation has always been awful in american pop culture, and its great to see major media outlets finally start talking about it. Not sure why you would think that we wouldn’t want this, as it influences every aspect of our lives growing…

Asian living in America here: I personally *do* like having non-Asian allies talk about the lack of representation of Asians in well, everything, since you fuckers in the majority seem to ignore our opinions and existence anyway. So please, non-Asian person, just sit the fuck down. You don’t speak for all of us.

Fine. Here’s Arthur Chu speaking to the same problem:

yeah I see why with Cindy Crawfords son, he looks just like her. Butt he Hadid kid? Why?

Even if it’s true he was taking care of the boy, we can’t read his mind. He’s a wild animal and it could have turned ugly in an instant. We just don’t know and all these “what ifs” aren’t helping anyone.
