Uh, no. The public-at-large and particularly Jezebel’s audience wouldn’t.

I’ve seen it work both ways. Men who are abusers claiming to be victims and women are abusers claiming to be victims (the perks of working at a crisis center for rape and DV victims).

While consent can be retracted, I'm going to guess this case was probably an example of a wife being vindictive and/or seeking more of whatever it is she wants. Things like that happen all the time.

If Depp was the emotionally abusive one and Heard suddenly threw a punch, I doubt people would be like “heard is an abusive asshole.” They’d be more like “Depp deserves it for being so abusive towards Heard.”

To state the obvious: none of us actually know anything that is going on in that very private world.

Unfortunately, what he said about not saying anything to Depp’s face about Heard’s abuse of Depp (allegedly; the same word we should all be using about Heard’s accusations towards Depp) for fear of being kicked out of Depp’s life is all too true.

For what it’s worth, I totally got that you were talking about, for example, North Carolina’s general legislature passing HB2 to overturn Charlotte’s anti discrimination bill (i.e. The bathroom bill (though it's more than that)). But then again, my reading comprehension is very good, I don't jump the gun and attack…

Rapists rape because they want power/control over their victim(s). You can parse it out from there (they want power because they’re insecure; they want power because they like this person; they want power because they deserve to fuck anyone they want; they want power because they have mommy issues and they target a…

While, yes, we’re raised not to murder each other, the comparison is apples and oranges. People don’t come up with excuses as to WHY someone was murdered (to excuse the act of murder) like they do with rape. People don’t blame the victims (for the most part, though I have seen on a rare occasion victim blaming in…

Her being abused and her being a social climber and home wrecker can both be true. One does not preclude the other, nor does the latter mean she deserved the former.

I love love love how women are taught, on the whole, that we must leave the personal at the door when walking into our professional lives. After all, MEN do that all the time so why can’t we women separate the personal from the professional 🙄

Hahahaha! You are SO right: I am adorable. I have amazing skin, beautiful eyes, and am adorable :)

Awww, bless your heart, honey.

Haha I guess?

Nope, native English speaker. I didn’t realize saying amazing was so self-aggrandizing. Like, what?

Uh, if I wanted to say that, then I would’ve just said it.

I’ve legit gone into several make-up stores (Bobby Brown, MAC, Clinique) and they won’t put foundation or powder or too much beyond what I’ve described, because, in their words, “You’re skin is perfect. Don’t ruin it with make-up you don’t need.”

Yeah, her list doesn’t make me think real skin with less make-up. It makes me think lots and lots of make-up. I was picturing my routine: eyebrow filled in (because otherwise I look like I don’t have eyebrows), mascara (same thing with eyelashes) and lip gloss. No foundation/powder/eyeshadow/blush etc.

Uh, no. My father, who was/is receiving disability checks, was in prison (long story). So, while the state prison system was getting his money, they took him off his bipolar meds + others for other conditions. The doctor refused to see him, he was in constant agony and paranoid on top of the other aspects of the…

I agree with everything he says and only watched a handful of the episodes. I’m not into hate watching.
