Ok, you've completely run off the rails here. "Men have the right to weigh in on what conduct is acceptable and not acceptable..." Really? If you and your buddies get together and decide that rape is OK, then women just have to suck it up? Fuck you.

Are you really arguing that because some women thousands of miles away from most of us protested an event you attended, it's fine for you to interrupt every conversation between women, forever? That's got to be the most narcissistic, infantile nonsense I've heard in my life.

Once again, we're seeing this intrusive male behavior that insists every discussion must be about them and their issues. Even in this feminist space, we cannot have a single discussion without the "male perspective". Article about body issues? We get to hear how hard it is for men who are short. Article about how much…

Actually, what that woman — Erin Pizzey— said is that abused women seek out abuse. And then, after she did that, she started working with A Voice For Men. You'd think a woman who really cared about domestic violence wouldn't hook up with an organization that's diverting funding from victims of domestic violence, but…

In fairness, it's pretty hard to joke up when you're already at the top of the privilege ladder. What's a white man supposed to do?

He says that, but then he mentions how he's noticed how many women aren't trying. So confusing to my tiny female brain.

Yes, you're reading too much into this. It's a piece about Halloween costumes, FFS. Do you also feel the need to question whether pirates actually had such tattered clothes, or could they dress better?

The "usual gun violence incidents" in America that make the international news typically involve the massacre of several innocent people. Obviously, there's not an outrage Olympics going on here, but why would you minimize the American experience? It seems an odd thing to be competitive about.

How many kids have done this, really? Are you getting dozens of them every year, or are you really just complaining about a couple of pieces of chocolate? Because I live in a neighborhood where we get tons of kids and the percentage of slacking candy beggars is just so low that it's not worth getting upset about.

Can't find it. But just because someone's saying something doesn't mean it's accurate, there are lots of people who want to equate dogs to humans. I've never seen anyone who was an expert in human development say dogs had an equivalent mentality to any human child. I'm assuming you haven't spent much time around…

Whoa, wait. You'd rather have teenagers getting drunk and having costumed sex than trick or treating? Because that's not going to come back and haunt you in any way.

My son and his friend — who were 12 at the time — got chewed out by a lady in our neighborhood for being too old to trick or treat. They were both in costumes they'd worked hard on. My son's friend, who was already struggling with being over 6 foot and 200 lbs, was mortified. She accused them of driving themselves to…

No, sorry. Your first sentence is wrong. Dogs are dogs and humans are humans. Toddlers and preschoolers are far more complex than any dog will ever be. At 3, my kids were learning to read and understood basic mathematical concepts. I really wish people, especially people without children, would stop equating pets with…

No offense, but children are not dogs. I don't believe in hitting kids either, but it pisses me off when people say raising kids is the same as dog training. Positive reinforcement is not always the answer. Sometimes, it makes a situation worse. That's because humans are more complex than animals.

"This singer from the 60s"? That's Phil Ochs, man!

Lori's accusations have nothing to do with the possibility of Kathleen Hale's mother having molested Kathleen Hale.

Whoa, I have totally let myself be drawn in here. Let's try this again.

What makes me feel morally superior is that I don't condescendingly use endearments towards people who object to my fear mongering. Nobody says putting this dog down is the greatest tragedy blah blah blah. What they're saying is that it's one more misstep by panicked governments who have reason to know better.

Here's a fact for you: Despite your inclusion of "70% mortality rate" in nearly every one of your posts, mortality in the current Ebola outbreak is about 50%. In countries with localized or travel-related cases (i.e. any country that's not Liberia, Guinea or Sierra Leone), the mortality rate is 36%. In Spain, where…
