Men are afraid of women because they’ve always had the upper hand and while they still do it’s not as prevalent as it once was. With minorities and women no longer being in the shadows of white men they’re scared that their status is in peril.

this is why i tell all of my female friends to read the gift of fear. there is a chapter in it explicitly devoted to how men will often “help” women and then use the women’s fear of being rude about it as a way of attacking them. seriously, it is crucial reading.

The world at large wonders why women aren’t more friendly with and accommodating to ostentatiously “nice” guys playing at performative chivalry. It’s because when they get you alone, this is what they fucking do.

People make jokes at funerals. It doesn’t mean they’re not hurting.

I went to Uni in Chicago and my freshman year there was a trio of dudes around Wrigley Field who were attacking and raping women - actual stranger in the bushes rape!- and they’d caught two out of three, but then there was another call for an ambulance, and the cops thought, “Oh shit, not again,” but when they got…

Also the child of a narcissist. Thank you for that clear description.

I’m also the child of a Narcissist and your description is perfect.

Trump is a narcissist. As the child of a narcissist, I can assure you:

Canada just sees America as the highschool quarterback who ended up a pool boy.

What I’m trying to say is, let us suffer in peace, Canada, and kindly fuck off.

We see this all the time.

I truly think it’s her gender. There is no other possible explanation.

Honestly, here’s my thing. Yes, the private email server shows that Hillary can be secretive and paranoid. Given that she’s had two Secret Service agents publish tell-all books with blatant lies about her, she’s been connected to every accidental death, suicide and murder in Washington DC in the past twenty-five…

Yeah, I agree - from a tort law perspective, it’s insane to punish people for producing a product that works exactly how it is supposed to when it’s used by a third party for a nefarious purpose. You cannot control indepentent, intervening third parties - it’s a fairly basic premise of tort (negligence) law. If the…

I know I will be called a horrible person but I have don’t have that much of a problem with this. I really hope that Cinemark doesn’t come collecting but if they do I REALLLLLLLLY wish they had a way to extract money from the attorneys as well. The attorneys who took that original case should have some serious eyeing…

I hope these people never have to pay a cent of what they now owe Cinemark, but come on, they should’ve never filed a lawsuit against Cinemark to begin with. (Honestly, whoever advised them to do so should be sued and they should pay Cinemark for their cynicism and attempts to profit off of profound trauma.) I just…

Won’t bother me or (I’m guessing) the majority of cinema-goers.

Yeah, my dad was this way. Then, when I was an adult who didn’t want to see him it was something else. Never anything having to do with him or his behavior or anything. Just me being a bitch just like my mom. That kind of thing.

Not to sound like a drama queen but my asshole father is the same way. To parents like that if their kids aren’t coming by its because they’re being kept from doing so. The child being sick of selfishness, cruelty, abuse, or a horrible attitude & way of acting never occurs to parents like them.
