This is why the answer needs to be two-fold. Children need to first and foremost be safe, even if that sometimes means removal from the home for any number of reasons. Having your children removed, however, should not necessarily be the end of the story. Once a problem is and the safety of the children is ensured, the…

I see what you mean, but as a society, when we see that, the question should be "how can we help?" We should be getting that mother treatment for depression and parenting classes. We should be making sure they get adequate nutrition and that they are all getting the social services they need.

They SHOULD be laughing at me; I'm fucking hilarious.

Except Hermione wouldn't put up with the Beast's shit and would break out of the castle and protect her dad on her own.

So she said that in the context of a conversation about how female creators are always assumed to be their characters. Everyone thinks Lena is Hannah and everyone things Mindy Kaling is Mindy Lahiri, an issue that far fewer male creators face. While people have been calling out Allen for being a perv, those people…

I have one friend whose several-months-old kid's measles was linked to the Disney charade post that they had identified the link here (an unvaccinated child who was around their child and later came down with measles before theirs who had been to DL) and another friend who may have just found out her kid (just shy of…

Ugh, I know. I've gotten into discussions with MRA men who claim that women get perks and deference based on their beauty. They don't seem to understand three things: B) Women outside the beauty norm exist (some - shock - might not be cis at all), B) ALL women are made to feel bad about a very narrow beauty standard,…

Just look at that study where something like 1 in 4 men admitted they'd rape a woman if there were no consequences.

They find each other because there are lots of them, and they identify each other by saying disgusting things when in an all-male group. Not enough men have the spine to register their disgust by telling the men around them how wrong they are, and too many think it's a guy thing that guys do when they're being guys…

There is no curse in Elvish, Entish, or the tongues of Men for this treachery.

She didn't happen to have a thing about bunnies, did she?

I knew it, I knew it. Due to the abortion funding bill they introduced, they are going to redefine what rape is to suit their narrative. Ultimately the only thing they will view as rape will be a scary man dragging a virginal woman in to the bushes to have his way with her.

Pretty much. It's very . . . Orange is the New Black. In the sense that there's a presumption that we wouldn't give a shit about this situation if we weren't seeing it through the eyes of pretty blond girls.

I think this is fanfic from one of the dudes that were so sorry that they had abortions.

It's ok, In 2 years, she'll have a Mommy blog about her snowflake child who can't process the complex sugars in refined carbohydrates and is allergic to the colour red.

And what do those Americans know about prenatal screening or about how difficult it can be to obtain a timely abortion in some states? They're uneducated and uninformed. It's the job of our representatives to make the educated decisions, and the astronomical cost of arbitrarily banning abortion after 20 weeks is one…

You are trying to reason with misogynists. As long as they get to control/oppress women they don't care about how much money is lost. Their hatred for women is stronger than any kind of reason.

But you'd think the head girls would recognize the Black Friend! There's only one of him!

Man displeased about not featuring in attractive woman's target demographic makes fun of her appearance, and likely her name.

Ripps claims he is making a statement on "the inaccurate synthesized artificial beauty passing as everyday,"
