Oh yeah, because wasting food is a really good way to teach these kids a lesson! "You don't get to eat today, and we are throwing the food in the trash!"

So they wasted even MORE money? On top if being assholes? Instead of letting the kids eat what was on the tray, they threw it out and then gave them a milk and fruit? It would have been cheaper to just let them eat what they had to begin with. Fucking genius.

I should have checked out what else this person was saying in the thread. I wouldn't have bothered engaging with a clear moron. Ah well.

Why does a perpetrator have to be a man to commit this crime? If a lesbian couple decided to have a baby, but then one person changed her mind after her partner got pregnant and slipped her partner cytotec without her knowledge, her ass would be in jail just like this dude.

You could always just not have sex.

No, it's very much assault. There's no way for you to get around that. He's doing stuff to her body against her will. That's assault. Sorry but there's no way for you to say otherwise and make sense.

No woman can force a man to have a child, because no man can carry and birth a child. Isn't that weird?

I'm sort of surprised myself.

Seriously, commenters? This man forcibly aborted a woman's wanted pregnancy from her body, violating her bodily autonomy, endangering her in the process from the potential side-effects including bleeding, and fourteen years is too much for you?

reproductive coercion, it's a form of abuse.

Why does some fake mom account always have to ignore the content of a Jez article about parenting in favor of projection and peral-clutching?

The problem I have with the whole discussion is how it's centered on girls, as if it's all on their shoulders to decide promiscuity (or in this case thinking about promiscuity) in all teens because boys are just allowed to feel that/think that without any accountability.

From the "also, the sky is blue" newsroom: tweens, like teens, imitate those older with them. The cause of hypersexualization of youth is our (adults') fetishization of youth combined with our culture's messed up sex obsession/repression dichotomy. Hand wringing adults need to look at the culture around them, what…

It seems ridiculous to have to point this out, but discussion about the dynamics of race or minority or power are typically isolated to one country or culture at a time. There are overarching trends in play worldwide, but something like the subtleties of a single word will almost never translate to another country.…

But guys, I've heard the word thug once before in non-relation to black people! That TOTALLY means it isn't being used by middle-aged white guys to call up images of gang violence and 90's-era rappers to paint black men as intimidating!

"Rape is a violent crime no doubt. I think you can find a shitload of other beer names (esp IPAs) that refer to murder, assassination, assault, etc. Do you think these are less serious crimes? Are you just overly sensitive to sexual provocation?"

Oh happy, happy, joy, joy — it's that time again when the willfully obtuse pull their heads out of their asses and start posting; good luck with that.

He is clearly taking up two seats.

I love how guys have to actually feel what it's like to be a woman to sympathize with us instead of you know, taking our word on it? Especially when a majority of women talk about their weird online dating experiences.

Yeah, she only wants his money. She couldn't possibly be interested in him for his personality or his long impressive body of work that resulted in multiple Academy Awards or his years of political and social activism. THAT GUY clearly has nothing else going on.
