Every single win he got on the backs of raped children. There’s no way to sugar coat that. Penn State thought raping children was less important than winning football games. It’s not just sad, it’s downright sociopathic.
This needs more tsars. +1
I’m so sorry. I know (at least some) of those feelings, too. I am female and I was much younger, but my mother’s response when I told her years later was “we’ll never speak of this again.” Not that I was lying, but just clearly, clearly not nearly as important as keeping everything nice and easy and respectable…
I have no problem saying this, but it still hurts. I was sexually abused when I was the same age as these boys, and I understand the world of hell they have gone through. I told no one. I questioned my manhood, I blamed myself, the psychological and spiritual destruction continue to this day. Later in life I did tell…
You forgot Sally from Nightmare Before Christmas. God I love that movie. I watch it every Christmas and Halloween.
Um, Tiana owns a restaurant, Mulan was a warrior who saved all of China, Pocahontas gave up her “Prince” to become her village’s main diplomat with the colonists. And if we want to talk recent Disney women who are not princesses, Vanellope in Wreck it Ralph gave up her princess title with the hopes of running for…
I am really, really saddened that Eartha Kitt’s passing means it can’t cross over with the New Groove universe and have Yzma. Yzma best Disney villain ever. Even the Emperor’s New Groove show Yzma was fun when I was an insomniac adult working second shift and needed something to watch at 2am.
I’m never getting married, but if I did I think our first dance would be to 3 minutes of white noise with ghost-like voices chirping every once in a while.
This has literally never occurred to me until now. I feel as behind when I recently found out that will and jada smith named their kids after themselves.
Nope I’m not from Mercer. I get how you could see that. My username is actually customer cervix tho.
What I love best about the “stay out bad neighborhoods” dictum (beyond the fact that a large majority of rapes are committed by someone the victim knows, not a stranger) is that it completely ignores the fact that many women LIVE in bad neighborhoods and have no choice about being there. It’s like they imagine that…
How hard is this: the things you do while drunk are your fault. The things that happen to you when you are drunk are not.
Wow, super original take here, everyone! I’ve never heard this before. I mean, sure, this was the precise message my campus police delivered on my very first day of college orientation as they handed out rape whistles. And yeah, pretty much every time a woman is raped, dozens of people (including, often, the people…
I think people who give advice like yours miss a little something — no one thinks the advice is bad, just very misplaced.
Are you sure they’re the same people? Or were they, perhaps, people who posted on the same website?
Ikr? It’s like handing a toddler a loaded gun and then teaching the bystanders to duck.
I’ve been “reveal my deepest secrets” drunk. I’ve been “more outgoing and chill” drunk. I’ve been “start crying any second” drunk. I’ve been “sure, I’ll sing a solo in this room of strangers” drunk. But I’ve never been “I’m going to rape somebody” drunk, because that’s just not the type of person I am.
You know what makes the battle harder for victims of rape? People who defend rapists.
And men, you just keep doing what you’ve been doing. You’re perfect. And if you see a woman who is unable to take charge of her body and sexuality, take charge of those things for her.
