Did I say she was my fucking idol?

Yea, she summed up exactly what it feels like. I’ve never put it into words but she managed to. I can’t speak for anyone other than myself but I never felt like I was allowed to mourn my assaults without scrutiny. It makes it so much worse, it keeps the wound fresh. How can you get over it if you aren’t allowed to…

Oi, so, uh, is Gaga finally going to address her collab with R Kelly and repeatedly working with Terry Richardson or is that not an issue anymore? Has she already addressed it? I’ve looked but can’t find anything ... You know, cause TimesUp and all that.

Why don’t you have more stars?!

I did. It’s why I clicked on the article.

Initially I thought this article was going to be about the band Purity Ring. I was like, “oh no! What did they do?!”

Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahha .... ok, I’m done with you. There’s no reasoning with that lol of ego.

Are you liking your own comments?

Yeah, yeah they do. Some are obvious but many hide it because if they didn’t they would ruin their chances. Many who hide it don’t even recognize what they’re doing because they have never been held accountable for it. They can just say “that chick is crazy” and end any reflection there. You’re going to tell yourself…

The thing about shitheads is that they act like average decent people til they’re not. Fuck you, shithead, but thanks for outing yourself.

Same here, I clicked on the link and had a moment of confusion and then felt bamboozled.

Now you’re making assumptions. I’m not passive, do I sound passive to you? I don’t treat every man like he’s violent, I do regard them with caution when they show me I have to. She did voice objections, he didn’t take them seriously. You have to be a fucking idiot not to see that.

Ok, so, this was part of his response right? It hit me like a ton of bricks. The number of times I’ve confronted dudes only to have them gaslight, call me a slut, tell me to get over it, say “you’re seriously going to make me feel bad?”, “you never said no” (I totally always do, with my words and everthing /s)…

Fun fact, when it comes to this type of shit I’m not a spectator, I’m a statistic. Been raped several times, sexually assaulted more times than I care to count. Guess what! I’ve sat down and tried to talk to as many of them as I can, been doing that since the first rape, and they sound just like you. “You can’t blame…

You’re beating an old drum by making excuses. What your saying isn’t wrong it’s just old rhetoric that helps the perpetrators and not the victims. Think about that a bit. Who are you helping by saying “he was just stupid”? Grown men get excuses and women get their behavior picked apart to figure out why/how they…

I won’t argue that premeditation matters but how much do you think it matters to the person victimized? The only reason I can see for bringing this up is to say “it wasn’t that bad”? What Aziz did is an extremely common form of sexual violence towards women. Ignoring no, pushing passed it, ignoring body language, not…

Sexual assault doesn’t require premeditation. When Feminists talk about teaching consent, this shit is why. This is sexual assault. Dudes need to stop defending it, minimizing it, and making excuses for it.

Women can’t tell which men will get violent. If a man is willing to treat a woman like shit when he likes her what will he do when she pisses him off or hurts his ego. It ain’t a straw man when it happens, ffs. I have said no in a relationship with a guy who pushed like Aziz did, I said no aggressively and got choked…

Hmmm, you’re a jackass. I didn’t speak in absolutes for a reason. I didn’t say women are or were perfect leaders. However, historically, they haven’t been the dominant figures in control so there hasn’t been much opportunity to figure out what the world would be like. I should not have to explain that to you but…
