“I mean, who do these bitches think they are? First they hog all the baby-having, and now they want time off to boot? Next thing you know, they’ll be expecting men to help parent. It never ends with these feminazis. Who, by the way, are the only Nazis that aren’t very fine people.”

Someone on Jezebel — a regular, no less — once wrote a long and entirely serious comment explaining that she could only be friends with men because she was sarcastic, she liked horror movies, and she liked to bake, and women who share her specialized, hypermasculine interests just don’t exist!

Really amazed at Aidan’s self-awareness and composure for a 14 year old, considering he nearly died this morning and now his life is under intense media pressure and exposure.

Yeah Mormonism is trashing skipping by on its holier than thou no alcohol no coffee credits. Mormons baptize kids at 8 and believe kids will be punished in eternity for anything they do after age 8. That is I guess better than infant baptism but then the morms go ahead and drag the departed into the baptizing and will…

I doubt that this is specific to Mormons. I think a number of conservative religious leaders would take the same approach.

If she was 18, you wouldn’t be ashamed to say that she’s a little hot piece of ass.

how is this asshole on the air?

What the fuck is wrong with those guys?

I think that goes a long way in explaining why it can take so long to recognize abuse for what it is, but I absolutely do not think that traumatic bonding is fully to blame for domestic abuse being so prominent in our culture. And personally I don’t see how any mention of Stockholm Syndrome is viable to this…

It is very much both things, not just the cognitive dissonance. Just consider the construct of the ‘difficult/brilliant man who is worth the heartache’ popularised in films, TV and music - in fact most films who have won the Oscar Best Picture deal in this trope, with the accompanying ‘long-suffering wife’ trope.…

In fact, being strong is one of the reasons women stay far too long before they recognize what they’re experiencing as abuse. You think you can’t be in an abusive relationship, because you’re too strong to have allowed that...so it has to be something else.

Where does it say the guy who grooms children for sex met this group as adults? What’s that, nowhere? You’re just leaping to his defense because everyone is disapproving of child rape and that makes you feel very defensive? Shocking.

Why it’s almost as though Kelly openly admitted to grooming children in the past!

Who he started grooming as children. But please keep accusing other people of illiteracy, that’s adorable.

...who he started grooming as minors like every other pedophile. He’s openly admitted to doing as much to Aaliyah.

Feel free to keep bending over backwards to defend this sort of behavior, though. It’s always helpful when sexual predators out themselves.

There is a reason minors do not enter in to contracts and are not considered capable of giving informed consent to sexual relationships with adults, you goddamned weirdo.

I don’t understand why it’s so important to him that she cut her hair
