As far as I am concerned, he can sit on his butt for the rest of his life and drink chocolate milkshakes if he wants. It’s like when Peter Gabriel wrote and recorded “In Your Eyes.”

• Video games are to blame for trigger-happy cops, says Tyson Beckford. [TMZ]

Honey, I am so, so sorry. You are right: NEVER see her again. If you have the strength or wherewithal, please report her to the American Psychiatry Association, or whatever hospital/doctor’s group she is affiliated with or even the state medical board. What she did is malpractice and abusive. She encouraged a PTSD…

I’m sorry that happened to you, I have had mental health issues in the past and I know how uncomfortable it can be to reach out to a stranger for help. I wish you peace and good mental health.

Are you sure they’re the same people? Or were they, perhaps, people who posted on the same website?

Ikr? Never any articles asking “Why do so many men rape? What’s wrong with them? Steps men need to take to reduce rape.”

I’m not the first to say it, but all advice directed at women on how to avoid being raped essentially boils down to “Make sure the rapist rapes some other girl.”

Women who cry rape tend to be pathological liars or have some other kind of personality disorder. You probably haven’t met any because they’re very rare. No woman in her right mind would make up a false rape allegation because the consequences are too severe. I don’t get the idea that a woman regrets sex so she deals…

I guess 76 year old Florence Holway from Alton, NH who was beaten, tied up, raped and sodomized by a guy who broke into her house was just asking for it by being asleep in her flannel nighty. Laura Herrick should be forced to spend an entire weekend in a room full of rape victims. Tie her to a chair and make her…

I was once told that an IUD (I wanted one) was like having an abortion every month by a “super helpful” female doctor in a major US metro at a non-Catholic hospital. I was so shocked by the experience that I sort of sleepwalked out of the place. Then the rage set in and I was screaming at poor Mr. Smuttins on the…

What’s insulting—and a little worrying, when I think about it—is this conflation between rape and drunken, regretful sex. I, thankfully, have never been raped. I have definitely had drunk sex that I wish I had not had. I would never, EVER tell a woman directly or otherwise imply that she was somehow culpable for her…

Who are these women supposedly “crying rape”? I have literally never met any. Dozens of women who have been raped. Dozens who have had admittedly regrettable sex.

Yesterday, I went to see a psychiatrist about my prenatal depression. Instead, I got a heavy dose of victim blaming for my sexual assault. It was a female shrink. I had nightmares last night and I’m NEVER GOING BACK to her. But this is rampant rape culture. The fact that someone who is a woman treating WOMEN thinks…

The message to drunk drivers is, “Don’t drink and drive” no one says anything to pedestrians and sober drivers, even though they’re the ones getting injured, because it isn’t their behavior that needs to change.

I’ve been “reveal my deepest secrets” drunk. I’ve been “more outgoing and chill” drunk. I’ve been “start crying any second” drunk. I’ve been “sure, I’ll sing a solo in this room of strangers” drunk. But I’ve never been “I’m going to rape somebody” drunk, because that’s just not the type of person I am.

So basically all men are evil rapists and I should make sure to limit my contact with them.

I’m all for learning about ways women can protect themselves or minimize the probability of being raped, but this type of information feeds off of victim blaming.

Ms. Herrick appears to forget that a large number of rapes happen to women not under the influence of drugs or alcohol.

No one can talk about rape without idiots like this redirecting the conversation to victim blaming bullshit. If its not policing our clothes, sobriety or sexuality then its our over “sensitivity”. Or they think “hey, why don’t we talk about regret sex NOW!” It’s never ways to teach people not to rape. Nor do they…

Of course it’s in the section titled ‘Midwest Voices’ the Midwest is literally the ninth circle of hell
