COOL STORY BRO.

This has Tampa Bay-area written all over it!

She wasn't "robbed" either - because she wasn't present. A person and threat of personal harm qualifies as "robbed." Her hotel room was burglarized. Or burgled? Idk, all I can really think of now is the moon faced hamburgler from McDonald's ads when I was a kid.

Indeed. The headline read as though something was robbed from the dress, so I assumed pearls were taken off of the dress, rather than the entire dress having been taken.

Yes, yes it should.

I'm never Grammar Cop, but shouldn't it be 'someone STOLE Lupita's dress'? She was robbed, the dress was stolen.

What was I supposed to do? Jump over the counter and start shooting him with biscotti?

It is impossible to compare Norway to the US. The general values are completely different and complex. The problems are vastly different when it comes to feminism and gender equality. So these kind of studies are worthless if you look outside where they have taken place. Take dating for example — In Norway we only use…

I was interested in evo psych before I knew evo psych was a thing. Then I started reading up on it and found that the field appears to be dominated - or maybe it's just public perception of the field? - by asshole Neanderthals looking to justify backwards thinking behavior. Now there's this reflexive pushback -…

As long as I also want to BOOM, that's fine. I like shy men. The ones I've always stayed away from are those who want to go ON and ON about their feminism. In my experience, he doth protest too much. Jian Ghomeshi is a prime example of this phenomenon.

I'm glad to see someone besides me noticed the ACTUAL story here. I was just coming down to the comments to make this precise point.

Surely this study would have been much more meaningful if it compared like, the US and India, or the UK and places on the Med where everyone seems to think it's ok when people grope me in public in the middle of the day in the middle of teh street (looking at you Naples). More the first one though.

thats menz problem

but more men do this than women do.

I think there are plenty of women who do this, too.

Just...wow, aren't you an immigrant and an ESOL yourself? What's up with the hatred and ridicule of Germans? And please don't reply with the typical stupid "Germans aren't an oppressed minority."

What's interesting about it?

You know what? I really hope they don't do this. I don't want other countries to emulate our ridiculous work schedules. They suck. They are awful. They are inhumane, frankly. I just don't want them to go there. I want some parts of the world to retain some sanity about buying things.

Fuck this. One of the nicer things about certain parts of Europe was Sunday being a family day, or one where most of the workers were assured of a day off. Sure, it's probably religious in origin. But it benefited everyone.
