Researchers also find that female perpetrators have often been previously sexually victimized themselves.

Men were asking for it.

what?

Men deserved to be abused to pay for the sins committed by other men.

It's somewhere in the bible, I think.

Seriously, though: this was a bad day for good things.

what a stupid fucking joke. fuck you.

highly inappropriate too, considering the context of your “humor” is someone sharing their bad experiences. see, there, you’re just like al franken, making sick jokes.

i guess your self-righteousness bites you in the ass now.

anyway, i’m not gonna be sore about it or ask for safe spaces on the internet—i’m good just getting that off my chest.

nah, i need one more time:

fuuuuuuck youuuuu.

okay, now we’re cool i guess? cool.

eta:

seriously though: this is proof that everybody fucks up. and i forgive your momentary stupity. seriously. i consider it over. i won’t come back to haunt you with it 30 years hence. please go on with your life. or “go in peace” as they say in the mass.

I'm over it...........NOW.

Actually, the only thing that bothers me is the "self-righteous" charge. I'm not sure where that came from.

Anyway, hardly. I call bullshit on a lot of the men who are supposedly aghast at bad behavior. I've actually been doing some self-reflection while I think a lot of my brothers have been pointing fingers.

Its Hollyweird, why expect anything else?

I want to see the MSM talk about Creepy Joe Biden. He's fucking shameless.

i consider self-righteous the notions that these transgressions are perpetually unforgiveable, and that only men commit them. there are degrees of bad, and there is always the possibility of redemption, or else we should all kill ourselves now.

the reason we don’t hear a lot about the abuse dished out by women is that if a man says something about it he gets laughed at or told that women get it worse. so you never hear about it and don’t think it happens. some of that is linked to certain notions of masculinity. some of that is outlined in the paper i linked you.

and sure the squeaky wheel gets the grease but just because we’re having a popular moment about “the menzes” it doesn’t mean there is an evil gender and a saintly gender.

abuse is abuse. and it’s pervasive. we’re a toxic species. all genders.

yes yes, i know that thought catalog is supercorny garbage (it really is). still. check it out. if it was women writing that you’d be up in arms and horrified, but it’s men so i guess you’ll feel compelled to make jokes about it and discount it as insignificant.

Ug. Jesus, you made your point. Some dark stuff, and I stopped after only two pages.

thass what the ignore function is for, I swear, I am unable to follow some of this stuff sometimes due to the amount of members on my ignore list.

Oh, so THAT's why The Shining gives me nightmares...

Anyway, life imitates art: in an episode of House Of Cards, then-vicepresident Frank Underwood meets with representatives of a Native American tribe in the White House. The tribe's chief looks at a portrait on the wall and tells Frank, "Is Andrew Jackson going to be joining us?" Underwood's response: "No, I'm sorry... That's a terrible oversight. [Turns to his chief of staff] Doug, will you remove that?"

I'll take murderous President Underwood over Trump any day of the bloody week.

My standard deduction doubles so I will pay less, I'm trying to figure out how that is bad for me.

They're gonna have to give back the mortgage deduction, so probably there goes my doubled standard deduction.
