In each of my daughters lives came the day in fifth grade when we had to sit on her bed and practise. I pretended to be the boy in class who was making her sick with dread. She had to look right at me and repeat the words until they felt possible, if not easy: Dont say that to me. Dont do that to me. I hate it.

I am 100% in favor of women getting ‘ugly’ and going after abusers, but NEVER with fake charges.
If you falsely accuse someone, that should require mandatory jail time of the amount of time that the other person would have spent in jail if convicted. (even if the sculpture of limitations has run out)

Number two girls have all the power and you make boys where around like yo-yos since they have all the well girl ness
All the girls have to do to keep stupid boys is team up and humiliate them
That’s the end of that nonsense
Any boy that’s really out of control gets pounded on by the gentlemen and taught how to behave
Shouldn’t be hard to do, what with Streep, Whoopie, Obama’s husband Michael, Doprah, Rosie, _____ (fill in the blank)
The ugly ones don’t really have that much to worry about. Frankly, this whole thing is probably wishful thinking on their part.
The author is a long-time hysterical feminist. She takes time out of her rant to fulminate against the Confederate flag and fathers who give away their daughters during marriage ceremonies. Typical rich, first-world feminazi with daddy issues.
She looks like the guy from the horror movie who ripped his own face off and got skin grafts later.
Medusa.
Let’s dance.
Most of them have already succeeded.

O———k
Too late. Maybe the writer means, “uglier”, or “disgusting”.
The woman in my house is beautiful and intelligent.
