Yes, I read what he wrote and I agree with you that it is absolutely disgusting and WRONG. What I am having a hard time with is you saying how she should feel and/or respond to something when you don’t have the same personal stakes in this as she does. It’s incredibly easy for all of us to say how we would react to…

Yo don’t seem to be able to acknowledge the fact that, unlike you, she knows this man, has worked with him, and obviously has built up enough of a relationship that discarding him IMMEDIATELY for something he said may not be as simple for her as it is for you (someone whom, I’m presuming, doesn’t know him). It’s not…

She’s also a regular person with regular feelings that are complicated.

Oh shit I am so sorry we are supposed to defer to internet outrage when it comes to deciding how we feel about people we are close to. It’s almost as if our feelings towards the people we love who do and say DUMB ASS SHIT were super simple!! I mean sometimes I forget to tell my future mother in law that I straight up…

That’s kind of a BS way of holding a woman accountable for a man’s bad behavior.

Umm bye? I think it’s really shitty to rag on Amy over the actions of men.

I am not a big Schumer fan but honestly I can’t get myself worked up over this. Like Kurt Metzger is a shit bag, no question but why does she need to answer for his bad behavior? That is what I am not understanding about this whole ordeal. The focus is no longer that Kurt and men like him have some BULLSHIT ideas…

Yes and no. The legal definition has changed. A wife could not legally be raped by her husband in the 80s in Kentucky where I grew up. The same with pentration with a foreign object in some states.

Come on, dude. He said “a smart understanding of what rape is becoming and what we’re now understanding about it.” He’s making exactly the point you say he should be making. Jesus, why does this conversation always devolve into policing people for not phrasing things in exactly the way people like you approve of?

It is. My former neighbor has twin daughters who joined the same sorority. The neighbor was hosting a lovely party and another neighbor, from Argentina and unfamiliar with the Greek system, asked what the sorority thing was all about. The twins went in to the process of how they got to be in the sorority, the…

The headline is a bit misleading. You should definitely experience living on your own in between living with roommates and living with a significant other.

Yeah, anybody can block anybody on Twitter. If the first I hear of you as a person is you up in my @s yelling at me about something (at the same time that THOUSANDS OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE ALSO YELLING AT ME IN MY @S) I would feel no compunction blocking you, and fuck anyone who tells me I am obligated to patiently let…

The first. The latter is perfectly fair, provided she’s naturally producing the testosterone.

He didn’t do everything he could to demonstrate otherwise. As far as I can tell, all he’s done is beat a prosecution, against the highest possible standard required for prosecution in our justice system. Nevertheless, the fact that I think he did it doesn’t mean I think he should now be imprisoned. Nor does it mean I…

Forgiveness is not owed, it’s earned. The concept of restorative justice implies that the transgressor has accepted they have erred, as you can see this gentleman does no believe that’s the case. If you want to make a habit of forgiving people who won’t even admit they’ve wronged you go right ahead , but don’t ask me…

What is the connection between a guy who was found not guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, and thus was never incarcerated, and the mass incarceration problem? His acquittal entitled him to not being incarcerated. It didn’t entitle him to anyone’s respect, to not have to answer questions, or to be free from criticism.…

A guy once told me how he had sex with a girl who changed her mind half way through and cried afterwards. He called it “bad sex” while I scrambled to pick my jaw up from the floor. He just thought it was an annoying incident, a nuisance. Needless to say I ghosted him and warned mutual friends about him. But I suspect…

As a black woman I have to get this off my chest. If I see one more black man say this shit was brought up because of Birth of a Nation I am going to scream! I have known about this for at least 3 or 4 years you didn’t want to know don’t start with the conspiracy theories.

I don’t really understand Jez’s handwringing over how to discuss what happened.

Well, thank goodness you’re here to tell women the right way to be angry. Because otherwise men would be in real danger.
