Even though the intentions are are good, the end result is enabling white people to make a black tragedy about them and their experiences.

My guess is that she never reported him for violating it.
This makes me so sad. I hate this fucking patriarchal culture of double standards where the girl is always the one who gets slammed and blamed and bullied if sex is at all involved.
Yeah, he's weird looking, but very attractive in action.
ME TOO! Well, Rachel Maddow, Ira Glass, and Jon Oliver.
Agree. I loved him as Andy Dwyer for a long time and it's great to see him getting all this recognition.
Man, bait and switch. I was so excited to click.
Like this?
This is ridiculous. If there's a problem problem with non violent offenders and recidivism, then address that. Just making a blanket statement about women solves nothing and, frankly, is somewhat offensive.
This is awesome. I'm imagining a dytopian future where the Jesus narrative replays punctuated by couture fashion from the past.
Yeah, it's weird how different cultures decide what's too suggestive, isn't it? Like how a lot of those dance moves are pretty suggestive by Bible belt standards (as someone who has been admonished to leave room for the holy ghost and stop wiggling my hips so much when dancing), but kissing seems so tame here.
Hey, Europe also produced The Story of O and 120 Days of Sodom, but there are still tons of conservatives running around.
This is amazing, thank you a million times. I now have a new goal in life.
I loved this article. It was such a great diversity of opinions from different women in the same industry. Like you noted, every single thing these women said sounded like the exact same issue any woman in any male-dominated industry faces. It's a depressingly familiar cycle, and only the fact that we have made…
Yeah... in a lot of articles I read about it, there are comments saying "Well, everyone knew he was a creep, but we never expected this". I even saw this on Jezebel when the facebook post first came out. What does that mean? What kind of a rep did he have?
I don't get your point. Suicide Girls is a porn site, Bayonetta is a game. I don't every goddamn piece of media I consume to be hypersexualized. If I want to look at sexy stuff, I'll just go look at porn.
It is absolutely more common among women. It's a well-known phenomenon. I'm in STEM, I went to Grace Hopper, and during the seminar on imposter syndrome, most women (myself included) raised our hands if we ever felt that way.
Yeah, I think that's why women react badly to even innocuous comments on the street. What seems like a one-time harmless interaction to you is like the 10th dude trying to talk to her.
Sounds like you do understand though. It's not that any one incident is so awful, it's the cumulative effect of all the encounters in the day.
Thank you for asking! I love that you want to do something about it.
