I hope to close on a condo at the end of the month and it comes with a dishwasher. I desperately want to get rid of it and get an industrial two compartment sink with drain boards. The I could fill one sink for washing, set the dishes to drain in the other, and spray them all at once. I have expensive pots and pans…

FIXED.

I sometimes think that gay relationships between women can escalate because there is such a stigma against reporting cruelty and violence perpetuated by women.

Even broken clocks are right twice a day. Let’s not throw out the sound advice baby with the MRA filthy bath water.

Thankfully it’s very rare that female characters get a shite deal, am I right guys.

I think it’s solid advice no matter what your gender is, and we definitely shouldn’t let MRAs ruin good advice. We can agree to agree with them on this one. Chances are they’ll be so stunned we might actually make some progress communicating these ideas to women before the MRA types fall back into their usual troll…

This feminism = witchcraft idea intrigues me! Do we have special powers? Are there flying brooms involved? Do I get to have more cats?

A lot of women go through financial abuse. My mom and I both have. It fills you with shame, both because you essentially got swindled and because women aren’t supposed to be the breadwinners, so there’s this attitude that if a guy spent our money that we let him in exchange for companionship, therefore we’re…

1. That gif is stupid.

When the cat & robot overlords take over, assholes like this will be the first to go.

ALL HAIL OUR NEW CAT AND ROBOT AND CAT-ROBOT OVERLORDS!

Trying to work out all the baggage in these comments is taxing.

Seriously, though, TINDER BEATER?! Who the hell was like, “Yes, let’s talk about abuse, it’ll be great, and we’ll start by naming it after the abuse! And then let’s put a bunch of pictures of dudes that unexpectedly look like they’re going to hit users.” Who approved any of this?

I don’t believe men are ‘inborn sinners’, I believe society has been set up to tell us violence and control are what we should strive for rather than love and equality in relationships. Clearly a majority of men have empathy (as our societies are in many ways unnatural) and don’t treat their partners this way however…

I’m not 100% sure what your metaphor is (though I’m sure it’s a good one, I’m just super tired and not braining very well), but something I always think when I see these things is “You’re just telling the perpetrators how to better hide their behaviour, gaslight, and lie”. Which is why I think if they really gave a…

The whole “inborn sin” thing. It tends to be especially strong in men who have themselves been abused.

“Men definitely need education regarding not being abusive and how to disagree with their partners without shutting them down as crazy or with violence.”—

1. There are many male victims of domestic abuse. The number 40% of total domestic violence victims is thrown around. http://www.theguardian.com/society/2010/s…

The actual video doesn’t at all, but I got the feeling from the video that they’re communicating with the women in some way and talking to them about DV? Otherwise I don’t know why they would have the responses from women (that they show) that they have.

Getting real tired of “awareness being raised” (supposedly, but not really) and nothing ever actually being done to help victims or prosecute perps. Awareness is not justice. Awareness is not action. Awareness is not safety. And in this case, “Awareness” is the same old bullshit victim-blaming (“Don’t let it get”,…
