I'm gonna be That Commenter and say —- THIS IS WHY WE NEED FEMINISM. Feminists do and will fight against that kind of injustice against men, precisely by knowing that sexual assault and consensual pleasure are mutually exclusive but sexual abuse and physiological stimulation are NOT mutually exclusive. Because goddamn

Oprah clarified that it was okay for Matt to say it had been pleasurable, given that the aim and intention of grooming is to make sexual abuse pleasurable for victims so that the relationship becomes confusing for them.

Considering the probabilities... no, not arrogant at all. I'd also add that dead people wouldn't know either- considering that a major part of being dead is nit having your brain working. No brain = no knowledge.

I used to read final appeals from convicted pedophiles, inmates so far along the process that they were no longer entitled to free legal support. The vast majority were convinced that everyone just hadn't yet understood how much they loved children and how everything they did to the kids was actually a really

I can't believe that was their reason for dismissing his case; that he had an erection. Of course he fucking did you morons, he was stimulated. It's called biology.

Most sex offenders were once victims themselves

I'm glad it was put out there on the air from someone with the voice that Oprah has, that it is okay to have found the abuse pleasurable. Maybe it's becoming a little less taboo to say it now, but I'm so glad she told him that it's not wrong to feel that way.

This is so terrible to watch but at the same time you have to applaud Matt for his courage at being able to discuss this publicly. As far as Jerry is concerned, there has to be a very, very special place in hell for people who take advantage of kids who have already had it rough and continue to abuse them. And I can't

How do we get these users blocked permanently? It's always the same people over and over. Fuck them. Jesus. I am so done with people.

"Good for her" is not where I would go with this.

My friend got a novelty pair a few Halloweens back. She was irritated and itchy eyed most of the night, red eyed and crying the next day. It was pretty uncomfortable and gross. Her eyes were pretty much telling her to fuck off.

I am so sorry you went through that. Hopefully Lasik will be the help you need.

I just don't understand how you could not give a fuck about things in your eyes for SIX MONTHS. That's passing idiocy into possibly unprecedented levels of apathy. Even if you could somehow only afford that one pair of contact lenses...wouldn't you at least want to take really good care of that one pair?

I have no sympathy for stupidity.

Straight white guy here. No - we pretty much suck. Especially if you take us in aggregate over the last 500 years. Most problems are caused by us, or at least made worse by us.

On behalf of my corner of the species, I'm sorry.

I wheel allow it.

TRACK pants!!!

Hey there, lumberjack. Mind showing me your wood?

My god, what kind of face is this even? How seriously gorgeous can a person get?!
