Rihinna is a hypocrite. Exploiting Domestic Violence?

Exploiting Domestic Violence? Did we really need this to know she is a fake and hypocrite? Her first song back was Eminems song about abuse and being burned to death and she says she “loves the way it hurts”. And every time on tv she is clearly drunk or stoned.

I struggle with "slut walks".

I have had a hard time with this. As part of my programs on high school and college campuses we discuss communication and miscommunication and mixed signals. We discuss "words" and how words mean different things to different people. As we get into talking about degrading words the word slut always comes up and I ask who uses the word more, guys or girls. They always agree its girls. I make light (as a point of making a point) of the fact that girls use a word about other girls that THEY don’t like to be called by other girls or guys. Yet most girls agree some of their friends say it to their best friends meaning it in a "fun" way...as if saying "hey buddy". How can we have it both ways? So I struggle with taking a word that is so negative and trying to use it to get respect in an issue that already has a stigma for "gray areas" and that words like rape cant have all kinds of different definitions. How do we teach kids it’s ok to say certain words and call others certain things (like slut) if it used in the correct context?

This is a great piece and i echo many of the thoughts...

Dept of Education orders universities to lower burden of proof in sex crime cases

This article makes some good points about "proof", but clearly colleges do have to start doing a better job and taking this more seriously.

Are "slut" walks helping or hurting?

Not sure what to think of the "slut" walks. First reaction is that its a word we dont like used and find degrading. So why try to use it as a "positive" and be proud of it. Curious what others think. Does it confuse the issue more?

Rape at University of Miami. Sex with drunk person is Rape.

A person CANT legally consent to sex under the influence of alcohol. So for his lawyer to say he "didn’t engage in any criminal conduct that night and didn’t break any UM rules"...CLEARLY he did. To have sex with a drunk person IS RAPE.

Bow Tie vs Bandages. Chris Brown vs Rihanna.

A couple days ago I blogged about the Chris Brown interview on Larry King Live. The interview was an attempt to rebuild his image (I am chuckling at that) after his assault and beatings of ex girlfriend Rihanna. A judge sentenced Chris Brown to five years' probation and six months' community labor and ordered Brown to stay away from Rihanna for five years. In the interview it was disturbing to hear Chris Brown say he doesn’t remember assaulting and beating Rihanna to a pulp. Or other times he has beaten her. And I am sure many of you remember how he attempted to capitalize on the beating by quickly recording a song about it. I think it’s just as disturbing that after Larry King interview aired last night social media blogs like Mashable and others in Hollywood find it more important to talk about what the violent animal wore instead of the reason he was on the show, which is that he beats women. Mashable appears to be impressed with how fast a small detail like what someone wears such as Browns tie can become an "Internet phenomenon" at the speed of real-time. I wonder if they spend as much time talking about the wounds and scars (physical and emotional) that are left on victims of assault by people like Brown in “real-time” and the bandages they have to wear.

Chris Brown Channeling Oliver North

Wasn’t it back in the 80s during the Iran–Contra affair that Oliver North successfully used the, “I have no recollection” defense? We knew Chris Brown was an idiot but now with his, “I remember beating her”, “I don’t remember beating her” story about his attacks on Rihanna he achieves an even lower scum rating. Is this guy for real?

1991 kidnapping suspect: Story is 'heart-warming'

I am not so sure about 'heart warming'. This story had me so outraged. My first instinct was to want this man dead. To bring back the death penalty for anyone who rapes a child. Then my dear friend Heather reminded me how that would be an easy way out for such an animal. An animal like this should suffer more. We have all heard how people who hurt children are treated in prison. We can only hope he gets what he deserves.

There is NO "gray area"

A good article on sexual assault and date rape however i take issue with the title, "A New Kind of Date Rape". NOTHING NEW ABOUT IT! And there are NO gray areas as she calls it. You either have consent, which is a YES. Or you dont!
