Olympic fever. Catch it!
I didn’t see this right away and I called Dr. Hern’s office to ask how I could donate money directly to the practice. I had a fifteen-minute conversation with Dr. Hern himself. In addition to being a hero, he is a very humble and cool guy.
No you said “I’m pretty sure he’s a well managed misogynist.” Meaning in your mind his feelings on the subject of the fan are either disingenuous or a mask being used to cloud his actual sub-surface hate. If you meant “he’s a really nice guy who loves his fans” then you should have gone with that not a backhanded…
Here’s a link to Dr. Hern’s clinic for anyone interested in offering support directly to the people who work there, and here’s the National Network of Abortion Funds. The George Tiller Memorial Fund specifically goes to late abortions.

To Change.org! Oh wait, USA swimming says that they can’t ban him because he isn’t a member but that he will not be allowed to become a member. So nevermind about a petition!
I’m marginally consoled by the fact that since he was convicted of felony charges, he will not be able to swim for the US team in the Olympics even if he did get out in time.
We aren’t “assuming” this women is a victim. We know this woman is victim, because two witnesses discovered her rapist sexually abusing her unconscious body. If you seriously can’t understand that there are no circumstances in which it’s okay to sexually abuse an unconscious person, you are every bit as bad as the…
Except neither of them seem to think he actually made a mistake beyond having to share the world with drunk, slutty feminazis.
Repeating what I said on Gawker:
Except good guys don’t rape. Good guys stop the attacker like those random cyclists did.
Awww....so reassuring to hear that all of this was because Brock wasnt in control of his emotions after having a few too many drinks...
when I am not in full control of my emotions, I just binge eat...Brock raped...
potato ...potaahto....whats the big deal....
Yes! The whole case involving Turner’s rape of this young woman and the letters could (it seems) fill out at least a semester’s worth of just fucking LIFE lessons, including everything about rape myths and rape culture. Having said that, I don’t even understand why any of this is so difficult for Brock Turner or those…
Either that or he was trying to get her wet so he wouldn’t chaf. It’s obvious that he knew what he was up to. Whatever his state of mind was, it was unwanted and criminal on so many levels.
My sister made a good point, that the fact that he only digitally penetrated her is a sign that he wasn’t ~all that drunk~ because, had he not been tackled by those fantastic bikers, he would have had more of a chance of getting away scot-free. his brain was clearly working enough to say “semen is evidence, maybe her…
Because he was raping her by sticking his fingers up her and also dry humping her, probably trying to get it hard (I am straight, but also female and not a rapist, so I also don’t know the exact mechanics, but this is my guess)?
I can understand that, I guess..... but why was he found by the two cyclists on top of her with his hips gyrating before he ran of?
Wait until his mother weighs in.
You know what’s becoming clear? Why convicted rapist Brock Turner feels entitled to sticking his cock in an unconscious person. He’s obviously surrounded by people with absolutely no moral center.
I know it’s not in evidence but I have a hard time believing that her violation was “only” digital.
