It just baffles me how an educated judge could possibly give a verdict like that, especially when the boy in question clearly stated that it felt "wrong" and he did not enjoy it in the slightest. This can cause mental scars for the rest of his life, I wouldn't be surprised if he became scared of or antagonistic towards women now, and sex in general. The fact that the father approves of it and doesn't give him any support is just a cue for social services to take that kid away from that environment pronto, but apparently that's not the case. I guess we just live in a world where only men can be rapists wheras women just get a slap tap on the wrist.
No, because slapping a woman under ANY circumstance is bad, remember? /jk (at least I know several girls in my school that don't agree with that so, I have some hope left)

An interesting issue cropped up on tumblr over the past week or so.

Apparently the depiction of Fan Art of the popular cartoon Steven Universe had tumblr users up in arms after very simple drawings somehow perpetuated "fat shaming, racism, transphobia, etc.

One users very passionate and hobbyist drawings led a mass of people to ridicule, attack, and shame her to the point of "nearly driving her to suicide."

Now granted I'm sure this was overly perpetuated and probably someone responding in an over dramatic way and wouldn't actually commit suicide over this, but what I am amazed by is the fact that literal fan art has the ability to turn people into toxic monsters.

The pictures shown in the article are incredibly tame and don't even perpetuate any form of Negativity, but leave it to tumblr to once again take simple hobbies and make them literally crimes against humanity.

I can't see the article right now (at school) but I do know that there was a very toxic "artist" that was editing people's drawings to make them fit his idea of a "perfect world" (everyone white, all muslims are terrorists, all women are unrealistically thin, etc.). From what I understand that goes against basically everything SU is about, so I can understand people being super upset, especially if their art was affected

#EndFathersdaynow Is the stupidest thing I've seen on the internet..... And I go on 4chan :P


You need to lurkmoar.

Know Your Meme said:
#EndFathersDay is a Twitter hashtag campaign launched as a prank by 4chan supposedly to garner public support for dismantling of Father’s Day, an annual holiday celebrated on the third Sunday of June in honor of fatherhood, under the false banner of radical feminism, in a similar vein to previous 4chan-initiated anti-feminist hoaxes like Free Bleeding and Bikini Bridge.

To be fair they are probably correct at some level.

I suppose this also means you are not in favour of an inclusive society... bloody meritocrat.

Yeah, how dare employers look for people qualified for the job? Shitlords these days, I swear. In my ideal society, we would have Peter Hawkings flipping burgers at McDonalds and Guy Fieri manning the nuclear reactors at Kashiwasaki Kariwa. Only then we will be truly equal.

Wonder why that would be.... definitely nothing to do with the fact that many STEM companies are being pressured into making sure that no more men are hired then women.
...which is institutionalized, legal sexism. If I were a scientist who's dedicated his entire life on researching solutions that can potentially make everyone's lives better and then, after spending years at the university slaving over books and listening to lectures, I was told that I cannot be hired in a given company because I have a penis and it'd be nicer if I had a vagina instead, I'd make a nation-wide scale stink over it because it's ridiculous. A scientist's gender should have zero impact on whether or not he or she gets hired, and guess what? If there are more male scientists in the STEM fields than women then maybe you should stop subsidizing gender studies, because that's the worthless degrees those women are leaving universities and colleges with. If you've studied a subject that guarantees that your only employment you can possibly get in the future is "Professional Victim", you are to blame. You threw away that money, f*ck you.

Fellas, no worries. We just have to find shelter somewhere safe while the problem sorts itself out. Not much longer and in certain countries medical doctors, pilots and nuclear reactor operators will get hired for their diversity, not for their qualification.
