This is very good advice!

But President, who knows?? :/

He served the time that the court gave him (actually, not even...he got out early), but I don’t think 10 months is nearly enough compared to the life time of pain he inflicted on his victim.

I’m usually a big fan of second chances, and I do believe in forgiveness, but when it comes to violent crimes, especially rape, I…

Because playing sports is a privilege not a right.

Athletes are supposed to be role models, especially in collegiate sports. What kind of message does this send? “You and your friend can rape an unconscious girl and videotape it and it’ll only cost you a year or two of college ball!” Come on, this is fucking ridiculous. As the petitioner said, let him have his…

Should he be allowed to get an education? Sure.

I also seriously doubt he would put himself in the same kind of situation again.

He DIDN’T PUT HIMSELF IN ANY SITUATION. But if you’re thinking he won’t rape again, everything that’s known about sexual predators says you’re dead wrong, moron.

I suppose it does depend on the nature of the crime. A violent crime like rape—no, you shouldn’t be able to participate in a sport. Your second chance is you go to school, you take your classes, and hopefully you get a job when you get out.

I think the part that rankles here is that he used football and his status in the initial case to try to squirm free of consequences. When it’s clearly part of the weapons he used against the girl and her advocates, I think it’s not just the privilege to move on we’re talking about.

His victim will serve a life sentence of depression and anxiety.

Yeah, if they want their marriage to work, they need to each take care of themselves and disregard the other person’s possible needs.

Sure, yes, talking is always necessary. It’s just that like 90% of ED cases stem from psychological issues, such as anxiety. But of course, they have to talk about it and agree that steering their sexual contact away from P in V for a bit is a good course of action.

but also, talk to him, because he might have some actual health problems that need to be addressed and talking them through might do wonder for everyone.

You’re dead-on about the XO Jane disease, but I am pretty proud of the Jezebel commentariat this morning for being all “This is bullshit. Don’t be an insensitive asshole about the boner problem.”

LW2: dude’s got anxiety through the roof! He’s rushing things so that he can get the P in the V and get off before it goes soft. It’s hard (no pun intended). He probably has a penis-centric (is that a thing?) vision of sex and a fixed idea of how much sex you guys should be having. Hecs generating anxiety with all…

He’s been at it longer. He has his own site and was writing there long before the Kotaku gig. He also is pretty responsive to reader feedback and can listen to people, which seems to be part of the job. 

Right? Love Dr. Nerdlove!

“Last off, his wife probably told him to stop hanging out with you, duh. Which means you are attractive which means you can find a partner which means your friends can have a little time off from taking care of that need which means they’ll want to hang out with you more”

It’s odd to me that Dr. Nerdlove over at Kotaku, a video game website, gives more empathetic, reasonable, healthy relationship advice than Jezebel, and he manages to do it with a far less condescending tone.
