Plus these issues were already decided a long time ago so I'm unclear as to why we're resurrecting them again? I don't get it. I really don't. What is the GOP going to consider next?

"There are very few Democratic women who can begin or finish a sentence without mentioning a 'woman's right to choose,'" Conway said...

What you just did is akin—to borrow a metaphor—to walking into a graduate-level philosophy class uninvited and asking the students if they are aware that the color blue you see may not be the same as the color blue they see.

You're a frickin' meat muppet.

Honest question for you: Are you trolling?

Gee whiz mister, you mean all I had to do was get involved?

guards exchanging candy and other favors in return for sex

You know how I know you're a pedophile, guard?

Oh my god. He not only repeatedly raped a 14 year old BUT he repeatedly raped a 14 year old who had already been raped numerous times by her family member. JFC, yeah, I sure she was a totally willing participant! Clearly, she only exists as a hole for the world to fuck whenever it wants. What a whore!

Dude, I'm going to assume you meant well by this. But it's incredibly insulting to show up here and tell us to get involved. If you haven't noticed, Jez readers are all about participation. We call reps all the time. We go to protests. We write, we vote, we speak up. We blast FB and twitter, we get the word out, we…

I know. I was already appalled and then when I read that bit took it too a whole new level of upsetting.

...she was sexually molested multiple times as a child and raped by an uncle who fed her tons of hard drugs. She should've made better choices.

This is totally unsurprising to me. When I was in the orphanage rape was always your fault. If you fought, you got in trouble for fighting. If you took it, even with a shiv (or in one instance a steak-knife) at your throat you were asking for it. My husband gets angry at me for reading posts like this, because he…

Children cannot consent to sex with adults, and inmates cannot consent to sex with guards. The law is pretty cut-and-dried on this.

This is one of those studies that the GOP will bring up in 2016: "Did you know our government is spending thousands of dollars every year to jack off rats? Heck, the free market can fuck rats better than your government can, and at no cost to the taxpayer."

Because you can't hear it enough: Something is wrong with your dad. Not you, your dad. And it's not your job to fix him. He could be bipolar, like some people suggested, but there are other possibilities, too. No matter what is going on with him, he'll ultimately have to be the one who decides whether he seeks help or…

I'm not angry because they chose to not engage these individuals, I'm angry because their reasons for doing so is legit. No matter how much I attempt to find reasons for it being irrational.

I've got to say: I'm so tired of having to deal with some standard that if I'm mad about something racially insensitive that was said to me, or anyone. I'm playing into some stereotype. I think Howard absolutely did what he could here, and for the purpose of Big Brother, did what he had to within the confines and…

kill me. no wait, him.

Erin, you are wondeful. But this "They don't make us incapable of performing at work. They don't necessitate bedrest." is kind of wrong, for many women. It feels a little—myopic.

Women with severe dysmenorrhea* and no sick days would appreciate this measure.
