The trailer is pretty bad, but it’s not terrible enough to warrant this reaction. Make no mistake about it, the strong negative reaction to this trailer is from 30-50 year old man-children angry that Columbia is letting girls play with their toys. I hope this movie does well, and I genuinely think it still can (the…

I get that some of the downvoting is definitely butthurt morons who hate that there are lady Ghostbusters however, that trailer is terrible. Like really really terrible. If I voted on Youtube videos, I’d downvote the shit out of it too. I like the idea of the film but watching the trailer was super disappointing.

As yet another survivor, I have no problem with either the position that violating someone’s consent in lesser ways is “rapey” or the position that calling such actions “rapey” downplays the horror of rape. Both perspectives can be backed by legitimate and reasonable arguments, and both perspectives can be founded in…

It was in artful phrasing, but his entitlement is clear, as is his stance that his rights matter and hers do not. He “paid” for her.

I don’t know. Having his daughter watch while he forces a woman into something she obviously doesn’t want to do, thereby establishing this as a normal dynamic is pretty much the definition of rape culture.

Yes, because it is about consent and ignoring the refusal thereof.

OP said camera lenses can be male-gazey. This is a perfect application of OP’s statement. If going into someone’s face to shoot them against their will isn’t male-gazey-rapeish, I don’t know what is.

Ever think about how it’s 2016 and we still can’t shake the belief that people are a commodity?

I’d venture to say that BOTH parties encapsulate this view, lest we forget that both contain anti-feminists, racists, ableists, homo- and transphobes. Violence is what ensures the woman knows her place and it all flows from there. Violence, in my opinion, was seen as a way to ensure the woman remains socially…

It’s common because violence against women, children, the elderly, black people, gay people, trans people, the disabled and immigrants is acceptable. Our societies (including post-colonial ones) endure violence because they use it as a marker of who they are. Every nation on Earth prides itself on a violent struggle…

I hope they get the prayers they need for comfort, but also I hope the government invests more money in domestic violence intervention. There’s almost always an escalation in threats and violence so there may be warning signs, but the authorities often can’t act on them until it’s too late. Domestic abuse is a unique…

Just to correct this article, this is actually a video that was originally uploaded on the 19th December 2015 here, https://www.facebook.com/urbanleakdotco…

They need to ruin someone's lives since gay marriage is now legal. Trans people were the next big target.

It’s because they can no longer shit on gay people publicly without risking a gigantic reprisal.

You’re* entitled to an opinion. Everyone else is entitled to say that opinion’s fucking stupid, mock it relentlessly, and keep it from spreading like the mental candidia it is.

*”You” being the general you, not specifically you.

This couples naturopath DID tell them to go to a fucking hospital. They chose not to.

The Stephans’ case has sparked a larger debate in Canada about whether naturopaths, who are not exactly real doctors, should be allowed to treat children at all.

Her deranged Smeagol/Gollum personality and affect swaps between “plucky trophy wife and supermom” and “highly intelligent, educated, and diabolical” were fucking brilliant.

Anna Camp is the best comical villian performance in a very long time. In my opinion it is possibly better than Regina George due to the complexity. Only time can tell, but I was impressed with her and the writing.

Mikey’s nonna was possibly my favorite gag of the season.
