Yes, this. Cat calling, muttering, blurting out "compliments" about someone's body is not how you talk to a person. You would never, EVER say or do those things to someone you respect... Therefor women are not persons or worthy of respect.

"No one starts a friendly conversation that way." EXACTLY. When I was living in Korea, I went out for a co-worker's going away party, and another co-worker decided to invite along some American soldiers she met at a club. When we were getting dinner and drinks, one sidled up to me, with my boyfriend on the other side,

I had a guy cat-call me and I yelled back "fuck off." He yelled back "fuck you if you don't know how to take a compliment." At that point I stopped walking and countered with "then don't scream at me like you're at game. Walk across the fucking street and act like you have fucking manners." He yelled back "fuck you"

UGH the coat cape. Hate it, hate it, hate it. ACTUAL capes, though? I covet one. Saw a gorgeous navy blue cape with leather trim in Ralph Lauren a few years ago. Sadly it cost more than my car, but I live in hope of finding a reasonably-priced alternative.

It honestly breaks my heart a little bit that this post even needs to exist — but the manner in which this has been handled (or not handled, really) by HQ is pathetic. Not reporting on it feels hypocritical, so here we are.

For what it's worth, I want to apologize to our readers who are forced to interact with these violent gifs regularly. The point of Kinja is to create a better platform for discussion and those discussions CANNOT happen when you're inundated by such traumatizing material. It's this person's goal to shutdown

What bothers me about this is that we don't record IP addresses so as to protect these burner accounts for people who might want to tip us anonymously about a story. So the company is seemingly placing a priority on making these hypothetical tipsters feel safe over the safety of the actual real live women who write

This is awesome. Good for Monet!

Also the SB Nation article says she pitched a "shutout," not a no-hitter, and the Phillymag article linked to by SB Nation says 10 strikeouts. So the correct description of the game should be "Shutout With 10 K's". Mo-Ne is not thowin' like a girl, but the Jez author is writing like one.

but as a woman, how will my employer know they can pay me less?

As someone who has years of experience in this specific field (yes, israel-palestine peace process) I can say that it is extremely nuanced and complex and 99% of the people who are talking about it, famous or no, are really confused about some aspect of it.

If you don't know, read up on Ginsburg's early career. She has an incredible life story, and was one of the smartest civil procedure law school professors in the country before becoming a Judge. Numerous glass ceilings were shattered because of her. One of my favorite Justices of all time.

I completely read the second paragraph in the voice of Stefon. This trial has everything...jumproping penguins, human rocket launchers, my cousin Otis...

Look at you...with your facts and logic...

I can't remember exactly but I think he's supposed to be like 27 in the books, which is like thing #58378 that's wrong with them.

We have some lovely options for you in our Fall Kepler catalog...I myself have been looking for something with a nice view - two suns, maybe a nebula - but close enough to work that I don't have to take the 405 wormhole. That thing is a b—- during rush light-hour.

I guess they issued a twatwa.

I feel like I need to share this because it might make everyone feel better.

One day I was sitting on the bus behind a girl with headphones on with a guy started calling her "Blondie," and just generally telling her how he'd like to get to know her. He wasn't particularly crude about it, but it was clear his attention was unwelcome. But he kept trying, and she kept replying in monosyllables

I did it all the time. Looking back, I'm amazed nothing happened to me.
