First we were talking about life in prison, and now we’re talking about being blacklisted at a college. Well, there’s no evidence that either is happening.

I’m pointing out that facts and statistics don’t support your position. It’s nonsensical. More people are victims of death by paper clip.

Being punished for any false accusation must suck. There are plenty of men in prison for robbery and murders they didn’t commit. If this is a serious issue for you, check out the Innocence Project, and Legal Aid.

Ask any woman you know and most of us will have a dozen stories of harrassment, assault, and rape. If you enable so many men to ruin lives with no consequences, how do you expect to have a civilized, equitable society?

I don’t think having to obtain consent is a wrong. I’m not sure what wrong you’d be referring to? Having to get written consent isn’t on par with being raped. Obviously. Are you ok?

The ordinary people don’t need to be taxed more. The rich ones and the corporations do. If they paid their fair share we wouldn’t even be having this conversation, because our justice and educational and health care systems would be comparable with other rich, developed nations. Instead of literally at the bottom of…

I’m sorry you had to listen to this asshole.

If you think that bartering for sex in a relationship is normal, then you’ve accepted that having sex with you is a chore that a normal woman doesn’t want to do. Sex that someone doesn’t want is rape. Sex that someone doesn’t want but has been “pestered” into is coercive, and in many circumstances, it’s also rape. The…

You shouldn’t have to fight back or run away not to get a dick stuck into you. That’s an action you should have to consent to. That’s an action someone should have to have clear permission to do. Someone shouldn’t be trying to push their dick on someone who doesn’t want it, relying on their victim to be worn down, or…

If that was what was required to ensure that no one was raped, I’d support it. That you don’t is because you think someone getting their dick wet is more important than someone being raped.

Please refrain from speaking for survivors, especially so inaccurately.

I hope I’m alive when the day comes we elect Michelle Obama or someone like her to the presidency. So many ceilings left to bust!

Slightly off topic but anyway: how do you deal with people you know and like refusing to believe that gender bias exists? One of my friends is in such a lather about Hillary and he can’t admit that anyone might at all be motivated to hate her because of her gender. Like there is study after study after study about…

Yes I’m sure it differs by community. And if you live in a community with more firefighters or ambulances than police I’d say your experience is different than a lot of people’s.

Can we talk common sense for one second? Anyone who’s been breathing on this planet for long enough to be outside alone knows that when someone else is in distress, you can’t dominate them into calm. That’s just not how distressed brains work. If you show up, in uniform, driving fast, with lights and loud noises,…

As far as I know, the police are first responders for everything. A fire, a choking, anything. They send the police AND whatever else they need to dispatch.

You know, I don’t get how they think bringing up her being cheated on does them any favors. So many of us have been cheated on and we’re not really stoked about that being thrown in her face like its her fault.

Actually if you look at it it’s mostly men. Some men seem to enjoy her and others seem to hate her, as well any woman who benefits from her own sexuality. The sheer volume of rape and death threats recieved by women like her deserves some serious examination.

The problem isn’t women like her. The problem is men who can’t seem to understand that women are individuals and insist on treating us all the same. If that’s what they want to imagine as “female gamer” that’s their failure. Not hers.

Or she could invest her money and not have to work another job. Or she could do this work as long as it works for her.
