He was 17. She was 13. I’m guessing he had a significant strength/size advantage over her. “Women are afraid that men will kill them” easily translates to “teenage girls are afraid teenage boys will kill them”. Don’t be obtuse.

Why does anyone use Uber? Seems shady not just with the threats and mistreatments, but they don’t have fair pay practices. So why do people? Genuinely curious as to when/why you choose it.

I am from Chattanooga, the city has been totally revamped due to the fiber. I named my wifi network LightSpeed in honor of the fiber connection. Amazon, Wacker, VW, Gigtank, Alstom, and more are there for the business, jobs, and the internet.

I am a fan of what EPB has done, Comcast and At&t need to build up their…

What the hell is the thought process of a person who infers that “rapeable” is a fucking compliment? Being “unrapeable” would be a damn superpower.

I don’t believe anyone is twisting his words. They’re untwistable.

I knew people who tried heroin in the nineties. Some people tried it once. Some people fell down a hole into complete self destruction and have never really recovered.

His heart goes out to all those women who weren’t raped? Yeah okay. -1000 for that shout-out.

You know what sounds more like a money hustle to me? This Hot Take. When’s the last time Damon Wayans did anything even remotely culturally relevant? Sit the fuck down, Major Payne.

I can think of easier money hustles than accusing someone of rape.

Exactly! I feel like many Jez readers are white and priviledged and they have this idea that all sex work is empowering and those of us who are worried about women who are coerced or trafficked are “hysterical” like te author said. Well, I am Mexican and an immigrant and most women I know who did sex work were coerced…

I’m really torn about this issue. On the one hand, I have friends who have been sex workers. They have been white, middle class women who chose to get into it to make a few extra dollars, to make an income when they lost their jobs, to put themselves through school, etc.

Brodesser-Akner is an asshole. The only time I feel like a journalist has been respectful during one of these sugar daddy reports, was Lisa Ling in her report last year. She seemed creeped out by the men and concerned about the well being of the women. Especially because the relationships often have an unequal…

See, this is confusing to me because we said “fuckboy” in college—I’m an Old, suuuper White and went to a very White school. We used it as one would use “donor”, “slam piece” or “dial-a-dick”. A fuckboy was someone you would do it with but who enjoyed no other place in your life or perhaps even your social circle. I…

Hey. Is that kind of like the “I have black friends” cop out?

lol.

“If you’re looking to be politically correct in entertainment ... that’s the end of entertainment.”

Did the drink fling really happen or did I see another instance of men being given an “out” like being spit on (Ray Rice), or provoked to a physical beating unequal to the initial “offense”?

I’ve never had patience for loud drunks. What is it about intoxication that inspires one to repeatedly yell “WOOO!” at top volume?
