But even if it's mental issues, there's still the underlying patriarchal reasons. That's why you don't see mentally ill women going around shooting men if they reject her at the same frequency.

Also, I'm sick of hearing that we're not supposed to discuss politics in the immediate wake of a horrible incident. I mean, when else are we supposed to have that discussion?

Inspired by Boondocks cover, I like to explain "I have a right be hostile"

"She should have been nicer to him."

I...I just...This sucks so much. Her poor family.

Now can we talk about how the entitlement complexes of certain men breed actual, real violence? Because apparently the UCSB massacre wasn't a clear enough example for some people.

Also, I'm sick of hearing that we're not supposed to discuss politics in the immediate…

It just made it that tiny bit more depressing and exasperating to me. She rejected him with patriarchy-acceptable ego-saving language and he still killed her for it.

Let me guess - he's a "nice guy"?

Don't worry, though, there's no such thing as rape culture, and women should feel totally flattered and not at all threatened when men hit on them.

What a tragic thing to have happened. I hope her family can mourn and find peace.

"I have a man, I can't talk to you"... Obviously, this is an awful story of misogyny however you cut it. But on top of all that, I still wish for a world where saying "I belong to another man" wasn't the first thing we were all trained to say to get rid of harassers. It's not like, if she were single and told him to…

Well this is fucking horrible :/ I hate that we live in a world where men still think they're entitled to a woman's anything. Ugh.

So how many young girls has he molested in the last two years and is someone getting fucking fired for keeping a lid on the tapes?

Young?

Hey man, there's like 2 million black NYers that have yet to be killed or beaten. YOU find the time to do all this stuff at once.

I wonder if someone in the police department or connected to it was frustrated by the total lack of action, considering they've had the tape for TWO YEARS, and so leaked it to get some pressure going.

Between all this, the J Law leak, threats of Emma Watson and other shit on this internet, I'm done with men for a while.

I never watched 7th Heaven. Apart from the super uncomfortable and ridiculous heavy religious overtones, the father just creeped me out so bad. That rictus grin, those watery cow eyes... *shudders* 13 year old me had good instincts.

Justice Sotomayor Made the Other Supreme Court Justices Salsa Dance

Default = White Male. Only change default settings in case of emergency! There's no REASON for anybody to be indian, female, or any of those other interchangeable "Ohh All Right We'll Issue A Token" diversity checkboxes that spoil alllll the fun.

"That show is awkward because there's actually no reason for that character to be Indian."

"I don't really care what sector of society it shows." Of course you don't, when nearly every show has a white male protagonist of course you don't fucking care. Just like privileged people with the best healthcare don't care if we get universal health care or not. And rich people don't care that college tuition is so…
