Lots of people like to forget it.

If you cared, you could have looked this up.

But you didn’t because it wasn’t really your sincere point, was it?

You’re right, stealing a man’s possessions is way worse than stealing a woman’s body. *eyeroll*

I think you can reread because that should answer what you said here.

That’s the kind of vague thing people say about women when they don’t really have anything to say but feel like they must say something negative anyway.

Sorry, does that make it better?

Must you.

I agree it’s ridiculous and this is going to sound like I’m making it up (“I totally know a guy...”) but I actually know a black man with this *exact* name. :O

Well, you see, you get a well-paying job precisely so you can pay for those things. Which requires a degree, which requires loans. Does that answer your question?

She did actually say that. I’m sure you’re shocked.

It’s literally our leading cause of personal bankruptcy.

It’s not a debate because it won’t be won by *convincing* anyone *or even granting it to be a question*. That’s the surest way to *lose*—to present one’s own humanity as a question.

This exactly.

I don’t even agree with Wild Cougar’s comment but you might want to step back and look at yours because you’re making a lot of assumptions that are not as feminist as you think they are.

The percentage of men who CAN stop is 100%. I don’t know what the percentage who are so terrified of the possibility of feeling anything approaching shame that they just refuse to think about what they’ve done wrong is, but it’s high.

Huh?

I feel like you read this comment very backwards and in doing so proved the point of the article.

Good thing that’s not the advice that was given.

In order to be “a person who did things wrong in the past,” you first have to accept you’re doing things wrong and stop doing them. Which many people refuse to because they refuse to feel bad for even a second.

I’m not sure where it said to be ashamed anywhere.

I mean, if the moral hadn’t been “and he was factually wrong all along,” you might have a point here.

I mean, it’s basically the same thing when their definition of “self-righteous” is “caring to a degree that inconveniences me.” Sometimes that’s warranted.
