Am I the only one who just straight-up hates the idea of woman as reflection of the earth? That’s some sexist bullshit. Men are intelligent and powerful and build things, women create life and reflect the natural order. I was kinda hoping this would be a pro-reproductive rights statement about how Republicans are…

Yeah, I was confused by the “Jackson legacy” thing.

I really don't think evolution has anything to do with it...?

I don't know where in Ohio he's from, but lots of people in southern Ohio sound suuuuper southern.

I read both Madeline and Madeleine as Mad-a-line rather than Mad-a-lynn, so I would think that's why? Because they're different names?

Was there a trans American Idol? (Wondering because you said cis, and if there was I didn't know!)

I mean... to a large degree, I think the answer to that question is yes.

I agree with you, except I think it’s difficult to say that a rape victim should be forced to testify. I understand why it might seem necessary under certain circumstances, but I’m not sure this type of trial falls into that category (even assuming the veracity of the sexual assault claim).

Oh, I don’t think he’ll change either, I was just hoping he was a little taken aback or embarrassed by being publicly berated for being a fuckheaded dipshit. Then again, who knows if shitbags like that even experience embarrassment?

What made you think he was dumb before this? (I honestly would like to know, not trying to argue.)

Bernie isn’t an attorney and these are legal questions (with the obvious exception of the subway tokens thing). I agree that he should have better answers to these questions, but I don’t think it’s a surprise that he was flustered by them. Presumably others in his administration would deal with these issues more…

I’m glad you called him out. The fact that strangers feel entitled to say shit about women’s bodies, clothes, etc. is so ludicrous. Hopefully he’ll think twice before doing it again.

I am 5'6" and weigh between 130 and 135, and I wear a 6 or an 8. But also, Amy Schumer doesn’t really look much bigger than me, in my opinion? Idk. Bodies are weird.

Wow, what an asshole.

I love this idea. Now i’ll be waiting.

I can’t speak for OP, but I doubt that was the entirety of the basis for her hypothesis, because I’ve seen plenty of white guys act like that about it who are not Pauly Shore.

You don’t know the half of it. I also had to have a guy explain how I had a UTI from not peeing after sex. I went to both private and public school, and they both failed me. Thanks, America! (/again, I was dumb.)

I HAVE THAT ONE TOO. It’s so weird. And for me it only sprouts up once in a blue moon, when I've almost forgotten about it.

Like awake/aware!

Ugh, that’s so annoying. You were clearly a very cool middle schooler, though. Everything was embarrassing to me then.
