I would absolutely wear the orange and black suit on the far left.

Far more common than who thought? Because I’m pretty sure most women are not surprised by the news that when rapists get away with one rape, they go commit more. That’s what happens when a society doesn’t take rape as seriously as it should.

This is rather disturbing. How many crimes have serial offenders gotten away with?

So you’re saying the Stanford rapist has either done it before or will do it again? Shocking. Good thing he only got 6 months for that 20 minutes of action, since I’m sure he will never again be a threat to society.

That’s some pretty on point color blocking

I’m not a fan of violence, but I’d be willing to look the other way while someone else did that...

Thank you. It’s been ten years and a lot of therapy/long term stable relationship since then and I’m alright now. I’ve found the most solace reading the comment threads on stories like these. The worst part of the trauma was the attitude that so many people had that I deserved it. For drinking. I wasn’t even made up a…

I’m so sorry. I’ve worked as a victim support worker and educator for years and the hardest part of my job, far harder than hearing people’s stories, is dealing with cops, courts, and universities. Seeing how they routinely fail survivors and retraumatize them. And how often they let rapists walk away unscathed. It’s…

My rapist was a close friend who spiked someone else’s drink. She gave it to me bc she didn’t like it and I went from 2 beer tipsy to crazy shitfaced in about an hour and the last thing I remember is being in that guys room with several other guys. I woke up in the morning to him sticking it in me and jumped up, ran…

I just don’t get how people are but “he loves his so what do you expect?” You can love your son and still think what they did was wrong. They aren't mutually exclusive.

And my only thought: How many times has his father forced his “20 minutes of action” on some victim?

You may want to check out the doctors overseas. A friend of mine had hers done in Thailand, for ~$15k, and she’s thrilled with the results. Sucks that it has to be that way, but it’s a good option if you have less money. Still fucking hard to get a job if you’re trans (she worked for a federal contractor before, so…

Is GRS that much now? 7 years ago, it was $17,000 Canadian in Montreal, and less in Thailand. (My insurance didn’t cover it, and I still feel bitter about that — it was the most I’ve ever spent on any single thing that I didn’t live inside. And I felt so guilty for spending it that I didn’t buy any new clothing for…

I remember last year, right around the time she came out, a friend was having top surgery while transitioning FtM. He works in bars and doesn’t have insurance, and has been saving for years to afford what he can. It was such a stark contrast of how different the process is like for people depending on their…

I feel sick to my stomach. Every day I feel more and more terrified of my daughter growing up. This poor girl. I’m glad to hear she has support though.

Of all the things I hate about I5, it’s that it goes from 5 lanes down to 2 (one of which is HOV) to get through the city. Its like the designers never imagined that someone would want to go through Seattle to get somewhere.

Every single threat should be taken seriously. When you don’t take them all seriously; the one that is serious slips through.
