That, and it might be a total distrust of foreign influences. I've seen it happening mainly because of parents and the like. Even the most "non-racist", liberal-minded parent seem to want their kids to watch only localized stuff, stuff that would be more likely to teach the "american values" or the values of any other…

Sounds eerily like my life as a teenager, save for the highly sexist dad. I'm also not native american. Yep, people in my school actually accused me of being a witch just because I was goth or something. My response would always be: "Golly... I didn't realize we were living in Salem during the puritanical times!…

I agree. 2% of rape cases are usually false reports, but for some reason men like those MRA guys seem to think it's higher than that. Mainly because they seem to assume that cases where there wasn't enough evidence and thus the rapist had to be let go, were proof of the rapist's innocence and stuff like that. Other…

I don't know, I've seen some super hero outfits that looked decent on normal human beings.
I think the trick in making it work for normal figures is to tweak it a little bit so that it works best for normal humans wearing them, while still retaining the recognition factor and the feel of the character. basically, you…

As as a white woman I just mentally cringed big-time when I read the "But you're just too pretty to be just black" comment. What, all black people are supposed to look like racist caricatures or something?? =o
I just can't believe there would be people who were stupid enough to say that.... Would it be too…

Ummm..... no, I'm pretty sure we would still have heard about it regardless of the gender. if anything I bet there would had been twice as many phone calls to the police, because in this one you almost can't tell that there's a handle there.... it just looks too real whereas in the other one you could see the handle.

ARrrgghh. I feel so sorry for you having gone though something like that.

Females have bumps too... they're called Eve's apple. google it.

I was also counting homosexual rape in there as well, just not Female-on-male rape. a lot of it also happens when one of the party is more drunk than the other one is... allowing the more sober one to "take advantage" of the drunk one. The sad thing is that a lot of guys don't seem to think this is actual rape, just…

Men do get raped too, you know. a large majority of them get raped on campus more than they do in prisons, etc... they just don't report it as much... because in their minds men aren't supposed to get raped, and thus it must had been their fault somehow if it happened to them despite being a *gasp* man!
And I find…

The problem with this issue is that not many male comedians seem to be able to tell the difference between a good rape joke and a bad rape joke. So they will think that a bad rape joke is a good one, when it's not.
"But wait, how can there be such a thing as a good rape joke??" You ask. My answer:
A good rape joke…

That was actually the one I wanted to find again... thanks. when I said sexualized women, I meant how they were making fun of the fact that the entertainment business seemed to think that: Women in revealing sexy clothing committing random acts of violence = Strong Female characters.Especially the comic business,…

Where did you get that image from? I keep on searching for that one site where they had that kind of image... I wanted to revisit that page where they were making fun of sexualized women in comics...

Ahem. you forgot dolphins, Lions, and Dogs. Dogs love to hump the shit out of anything and anyone, and I doubt that much of it is solely just dominance behavior.

This entire conversation is pure win.
And now that you mention it... what is it with those guys wearing jeans all the time? espeically the ones that clings to their tight asses... I'm always in danger of tripping over every time, whenever I see a man in Jeans. Don't they know how dangerous they are, stirring up womanly…

Weakest attempt at trolling ever! *rolls eyes* move along, please.

You know, you're right. Maybe we could add that as a part of the debate regarding what people wear that somehow makes them "ask" to be beaten up/raped/etc.
so when people start talking about women's modesty, we could turn it around on them and start talking about men. "Oh god, that man was just BEGGING to be…

Here's the thing... birth control pills were found to be very effective as a medication for out of control periods. when I was a young teenage girl, my periods were seriously out of control. the period's timing often fluctuated wildly... like I'd be finally over my period and thought that I wouldn't see it until next…

I'm really glad that more porn are being made FOR WOMEN, as opposed to it always being for men. I don't know if it's a cultural thing or how we were brought up, but I've noticed that what is sexy to one person isn't always sexy for others. And I mean the differences in women's preferences as opposed to the men's…

my god, you sound so bitchy. no offense, but you really do sound it. There are porn MADE FOR WOMEN... and guess what? as a woman I like it. Am I exploiting the men who willingly performed for my pleasure on camera?? There are men who loves working as a stripper for women, etc..... is that degrading to them? Apparently…
