While sexual assault doesn't surprise me, it saddens me to no end - not only because I've been a victim myself, but also because it's so passe in our society. Shakesville blogger Melissa McEwan nails...- many women (and men) will continue to be silenced victims rather than respected survivors. Justice has not been done. Laughing about it and making bullshit excuses about it won't get it done

Okay so I was clicking around some links from Shakesville, ended up doing "link of a link of a link" kind of jumping, and I don't even remember how I stumbled onto this vile page: http://stolenpapaya...Charming is the key to all happiness. What I don't understand is which button I have to push on the dick-robot to get to the Prince Charming function. Would someone please explain that to me?

Now then! The promised second part, dealing with the sex industry and how it is NOT the most villainous, anti-feminist thing in the world. Part One is here: http://sugar-for-sugar.livejournal.com/23086... and it's not helping anything. Conclusion: second verse, same as the first. SEX IS OKAY. REALLY. IT'S OKAY. AND NOT JUST FOR GUYS. WHICH IS WHY FEMINISM AND SEX *DO* GO TOGETHER. TEH END

Told you I was going to get to this. It might end up being TL:DR for a lot of people, but this has been building for a while and it's important to me, so I won't be leaving a thing out, and I don't care...on the sex industry, please see Part Two, but I think there's plenty of food for thought to start you off right here.
