Seriously! I feel like people who seem really outgoing and friendly often suffer from anxiety. Because 1) those are totally unrelated things but, also, 2) sometimes you get really anxious about not being friendly or nice enough and then hurting people’s feelings. Sometimes it’s a symptom of anxiety rather than…

As someone who has anxiety that at times has crippled my life, I’m actually really surprised and appreciative of Ryan Reynolds speaking about his severe anxiety. “But you don’t seem like that type of person!” Is something I hear all too often of people trying to dismiss or diminish my struggle with anxiety. You have…

Thats the vibe I always got from him too. Like as soon as hes rejected he’ll turn into a “thug” and the sexist bullshit will come out. Hate that fucking song Hotline Bling too. Guy leaves a city and gets pissy when the girl he used to casually fuck isnt celibate when hes gone and moves on? Please

Talk about your “problematic faves”!

IDK if I should feel sad about her and Drake not being friends anymore or not. But I forgot that dude was really laying it on thick at the VMAs...

As I understand it, the original trial against Allen was stopped because a judge said they thought it would be too traumatic for Dylan. The judge seemed convinced that he was guilty.

One of the many, many exhausting things about this administration - and the election leading to it - is moments like this where events tease that finally, finally this will be what topples Trump.

And it never. fucking. happens.

Trump, a compulsive liar, has only told one truth during this entire nightmare, and that was…

Ah, Cabin Boy. The worst part was, we never did find out if he did want to buy a monkey.

I thinks angry vegans are angry because they are hungry.

“Can’t turn a coke head into a father! Yeahhh buddy.”

Varying degrees, for sure. As someone who was raped while intoxicated, I see where you’re coming from. In my case though, I was moaning, “No, no, no, no, no” the whole time, which one might think would give the other person pause. Also, I was passed out in a bed at the party but had not spoken to this guy all night…

I just got a full body shudder reading that. It completely explains his self-righteousness in the face of so many assaults, it’s like an internalized, split personality Madonna-Whore complex. Bill Cosby isn’t a rapist, “he” is.

This has me crying at work, because... same.

Yup. If I stayed with him and said “I love you,” then maybe I could just get over the fact that I was shaking and weeping the first time we had sex.

Another big issue is financial security. Honestly, rent is too high to breakup for many couples in major metropolitan areas. It is easy to tell someone to leave when you have a home to go back to that you can afford.

It’s really common for victims of sexual violence to continue sleeping with their offender as a way to normalize the experience in their minds and give themselves the perceived power or rationale that that they had agency in what happened to them. Like Amy, I was assaulted in my sleep but with someone I didn’t even…

i thought it was a gray area when my ex-fiancee told me that if i was asleep and “looking sexy” that he had a right to my body.

From the quotes, it seems like for her the gray area was that the perpetrator was someone she was in a relationship, rather than a random attacker. It’s unfortunately pretty easy to not see that you can be raped/assaulted by someone you’re in a relationship with. But it looks like she doesn’t consider it a gray area…

I’ve seen her do this bit in person and it’s amazing. She points to the ladies in the audience and is like “we’ve all been graped, right ladies?” and you just hear every woman in the room like “yyyyyyup.” And then she let’s it sit for a second and says something to the dudes. I don’t remember what exactly she said,…

I think she considers it a “gray area” because she’s giving him the benefit of the doubt that he wasn’t completely aware about how “consent” works (and to be fair, we’re still pretty awful about discussing and teaching the concept consent even to this day).
