His lawyers also claim that he did not throw her down the stairs—merely, he picked her up, tried to carry her out of the house , but slipped before reaching the stairs and caught her in his arms.

How about men with power and money - stop going after women half your age and then complain when people point out a power imbalance or call you a fucking creep. 

He’s a man dating a woman half his age. Of course, he’s a controlling douchebag.

The world is filled with couples who love/date/marry and are decades apart, and everything is perfectly fine. Domestic violence is not a product of that, it’s a product of abusive asshats being abusive.

As I get older I sense a following pattern with men, especially men of privilege *cough Johnny Depp* :

They’re young and beautiful and the loves of their early lives are equal-aged women of similar beauty and stardom, they wed, the next decade more or less (in Phillippe’s case a bit less) their careers continue to…

Phillippe, in depositions and court filings, describes how he made up his mind before the incident that Hewitt wasn’t “the right fit for him,” and that he feared his children would see pictures of him with a much younger, “revealingly” dressed woman. In text messages sent July 5 and obtained in September 2017 by Holly…

It’s become abundantly clear that American Catholics care primarily about allegiance to the RCC, not the Constitution, or their fellow citizens, or even basic morality. It’s a church of obedience, not morals - much like other top-down authority churches, like the LDS, Scientology.

Thank heavens that removing ectopic pregnancies has been standard best medical practice predating Roe v. Wade and despite the idiots mentioned here will continue.

I mean... I’m sure he doesn’t want to, it’s just that when he’s forced to confront the dichotomy between his ideology and reality, he finds it easier to retreat into a comforting fantasy where he doesn’t have to choose. He knows that Abortion Is Bad, but he also knows that it’s unavoidable as a medical necessity. The…

RIGHT? My 6 week ectopic felt like labor. It was a solid week of terrible ovarian pain that came and went. They couldn’t locate during week 5 and it was mentally and physically exhausting knowing what was likely happening and waiting for confirmation the following week. It was a roller coaster of holding onto hope…

To be fair, he’s not 100% wrong. There are some ectopics that can resolve on their own. I’m suspected of having one. The problem is it’s extremely difficult to know during and it is not worth the paranoia and pain of waiting it out. It’s far too big of a risk. And it’s definitely not going to just move down and…

Jesus Christ. This is all kinds of crazy. I also had HELLP syndrome. Yes, I had a healthy child- bc of medical intervention. Emergency c section-7 weeks early. I also crashed immediately after labor and suffered a heart attack. Lucky to be here. Lucky she was healthy. Still monitored every 6 months and she’s 3. 

He’s a DO (which is not a bad thing, I have worked with a lot of fine DOs and they are qualified to be primary care practitioners, internists and family practice docs) but he is NOT an OB/GYN, he is NOT a specialist, and he does NOT have research credentials, having not done anything like a post-doctoral fellowship.…

He is a PREDATOR! Experiencing a ectopic was horrifying (mine was at 8 weeks that included a D&C and chemo) and I had the honest to god most caring, kind, thoughtful staff throughout the process and it was still F&*%ing terrible. I COULD NOT IMAGINE this dumbass telling me, while I am bleeding severely, that the…

“It is not right or necessary to kill the baby to save the mother,” he wrote.

I’m probably gonna get slammed for saying this but to me this reeks of the monstrous “medical experiments” the Nazis sanctioned. This guy is no longer a doctor, he’s a nutjob happily endangering women. 

According to various male authority figures, the female body is truly a miracle, shutting down pregnancies when the rape is legitimate, and resorbing ectopic pregnancies in a single bound!

“It is not right or necessary to kill the baby to save the mother,”Yeah brilliant idea, if the mother is in that serious condition I doubt the embryo is doing much better. And even if it did, hey kid, you killed your Mom! All of this absolutely awful and shows how little shits these people give about women. This guy…
