And I might have just reblogged most of them.
I don't know that I have many followers at all, but I had to reblog a couple of those.
If anyone isn't furious about the media coverage of this incident, then they are part of the problem.

Everything I want to say about your Tumblr set sort of objectifies you for your sexay brainz, which somehow seems not appropriate. Because I am tacky and, well...tacky. I will be re-posting a *lot* of that shit. THANK YOU. Here. Have a puppy.
Objectify away. This is still me, you know.
And you're welcome.
And you're welcome.
This was a fantastic tumblr set, and I am happy to have furnished some, and proud to have reblogged a whole bunch!
And as I said there, you have no need to apologize for the post!

Every boy should read that set of items while growing up in a culture where "fairness for all" means repression for those in privilege, "equality" means special rights for the oppressed, and "rape" is only codified in law because of the patriarchy's sense of property ownership over their wives, mothers, sisters, and so forth.
"Those of us trying to understand" from the cis-male POV need to continually keep trying to understand what it's like for women. I get the feeling that as soon as we stop trying, we encourage rape culture. THIS is what I was trying to wrap my mind around when, back in my undergrad days, I was first exposed to the concept of male feminists. I'm doing my best.

You're doing awesome, babe. Thank you. I love you.
I'm about to make a post about this matter, too.
Also, I salute you!

I've stolen this userpic, by the way, and will manage proper credit for it once I'm sober.
If one thing has come out of this whole mess, it's that people are talking about it. Admittedly my tumblr and facebook are a bit of a liberal echo chamber, but EVERYONE seems disgusted with the way most major news channels covered the trial and sentence.
People are pointing to the really shitty things people have said and are saying, "THAT. THAT is rape culture. THAT is what is wrong. THAT is what leads people to think that what they are doing is normal and fine."
ETA: Also, I put a bunch of your tumblr posts in my queue.

Your brain is so fucking hot. ;^)
Fucking yes. So much rage over this nonsense lately.
Just friended you over there :) I'll be reblogging too.

mckitterick had the stomach to watch the actual video of the CNN coverage and read the comments. He said even the comments were shockingly good and only the obvious trolls weren't outraged.For serious and real.
HOWEVER, there is happiness on its way to you in the post. Hope you enjoy!
