I don’t know, I have mixed feelings about that. I attended a good journalism school, was an editor at the school newspaper, and heated back and forth between student writers and alumni happened occasionally; not to mention the brutal weekly critique sessions with our faculty advisors. It’s part of the learning process…

So his argument boils down to, “Don’t take the word of a woman unless there’s hard evidence backing it and it leads to a conviction—if there’s any doubt at all, the man is always right.”

“but not exactly egregious or abnormal for a 19-year-old kid.”

Counterpoint: it’s is quite literally abnormal.

So, Person A does something to Person B, Person C has carte blanche to destroy Person A’s property and terrorize her with no punishment, and his name shouldn’t even be mentioned? What the fuck is wrong with you? Who raised you, rabid wolves??

If your first reaction to someone dumping a drink on your friends head is to follow them to their car, menace them so they can’t leave, and do damage to their property you might need some social skills/life coaching. I understand 19-year-olds do dumb shit, however we do not know the circumstances of why the drink was…

1000%. I feel (almost?) hysterical comparing this to Vatican-level knowingly protecting abusers, but then again...nah. Coaches who get results are protected by USAG, period. I grew up in this shit, was competing upper level in the ‘90s for a gym housing one of these fuckers. Not only was he a complete asshole, it was…

They be like, this is a witch hunt! And I’m like, well you’re a fuckin witch, so

It’s so funny how cis folk can oppress, harass, and murder trans folk but when a trans person succeeds despite this we have the fucking nerve to call him the cheater.

They do not, at all, disqualify him.

Any outrage people choose to feel about this should be directed at the people who made Mack wrestle girls, not Mack himself. That’s fucking idiotic. And before someone comes in and says “He shouldn’t have competed at all if it wasn’t fair,” here’s a preemptive gif:

Okay, so, since apparently it’s hard for folks to understand.

And history repeats itself. From the Lanny Budd novels written by Upton Sinclair: 

first victoria’s secret, then h & m?

Disclaimer: I am using an opinion piece from the New York Times.

I worked for Kay for about a year and a half. Little over. My direct manager remains one of the most genuinely good people I’ve ever had the pleasure of working for. After a year and a half, I was ready to move on and put my two weeks in. My boss asked me to stay on for a couple weeks more because he and the assistant…

Right? They’re so hormonal, interferes with their rationality.

This little fucker! Excuse me if I come off as unhinged but I’m sick as shit and jacked up on meds, but I’m so fucking tired of these assholes and their entitlement. Fuck him. I hope he gets a new trial and a harsher sentence with his dumb ass.

This is what happens when keeping it real goes wrong.

I had the same thought, but sadly I’m pretty sure she knew damn well that if she ever did sue them for it, she would never be hired by a big tech company again... :|

It’s so bad. She spells out the sexist manager’s logic in the full blog. Apparently he got a discount by buying the mens’ jackets in bulk, and from this fact he drew the conclusion that buying the jackets for the women would be unfair to the men because he would have to spend more money on the women then on the men,…
