I’m very tempted to body-shame him now, except that’s exactly what mediocre men do to women, so I’ll just stick with “he’s a willfully stupid man child who targets little kids - how pathetic.”

I worked as a body piercer in NYC for a while and was an apprentice too. The main studio I worked at in the West Village was male-dominated, but very luckily for me, the men were pretty harmless and fun. They were very cool to me, and the female tattoo artist who worked there, and I learned a lot from them.

There may be some truth to that. I’ve had plenty of white feminist friends end up in relationships with those kinds of jackasses over the years, and trying to help them out of said relationships becomes so exasperating that there’s little more I can do these days than loan them a copy of “Why Does He Do That” and hope…

I’m having a hard time reconciling my feminism with my furious contempt for the white women with internalized misogyny who remain willfully ignorant. In fact, they make me angrier than the Roy Moores of the world do.

They also magically lose their autonomy when they’ve been caught in an affair.

My recollection was that he watched tv for a couple of minutes then went and took his dick out again. I’ll re-read to make sure, of course.

I wasn’t referring to her “needs,” and nor was the piece. Her boundaries and her orgasmic satisfaction are two different issues, and the one at hand is her boundaries.

I found that woman’s story distressing to read because I’ve had very similar experiences (albeit when I was younger, less confident, and not accustomed to being firm with men.)

Me too. I thought she was like...Italian. Or Middle-Eastern. I didn’t really think about it until I read about the racist jewelry incident.

The royal family needs some racial diversity yesterday. I’m not an expert, but some quick research confirms that inbreeding has occurred in the Windsor family more than once.

“I was kind of a semi-racist.”

Get a license to carry. Or a taser.

Modern satanist here. Sexual assault is profoundly unsatanic, as it is the worst possible violation of one’s sexual freedom - something Satanists value enormously.

Hi Marzipan!

I can’t help but feel sorry for her. I can’t imagine having Trump-related sex trauma.

If I had to guess, I would say that French women have a heightened tolerance for assholery. A lot of my worst harassment-related experiences were courtesy of Frenchman, e.g. when my Euro college roommate let her French friend stay with us when we were freshman and he came into my room while I was asleep, yards yadda I…

I wouldn’t worry about them. They’re not as fashionable as they think. It’s all in the confidence.

I can certainly understand and sympathize with a rebellion against the physique that male actors (or at least a certain category of sexy male actors) are expected to maintain, but I’m bothered by the fact that (some/most of) the media is embracing the images of men letting themselves go, when women continue to be…

Marzipan is super cute. I’m all for cute animal comments in the threads.
