People need to understand that just because it isn't assault doesn't mean it isn't an asshole move that needs to be criticized.

@pxhbillsee it is not a woman's responsibily to protect a man's "fragile feelings." It's not our problem that you need to be liked and haven't learned how not to take rejection personally. That is a problem that is yours to solve (generic "you" meaning men in general). Some of you men take it to such ridiculous extremes that you call women names for rejecting you even when she is a stranger on the Internet that you've never met. No one should have strong feelings about being rejected by a stranger. If you do you are failing to take responsibility for managing your own emotions. Women already do too much emotional labor. Men need to learn to handle rejection better (and recognize rejection better) so women are not afraid of being verbally abused or even killed for letting a guy down gently or not paying him any attention. You only need to worry about a bruised ego. We need to worry about being raped and/or killed. Fix that problem and women will have no problem giving blunt and direct rejections and you'll never get a fake phone number ever again. (Personally I do take risks in bluntly rejecting men because many of you are difficult to get rid of, but that's just me.) If you have no evidence of her being enthusiastic about what you want to do, you should assume the answer is no and go away quietly. If you aren't sure, ask. Being "thick" is unacceptable when that thickness "coincidently" just happens to benefit you. (Hint: when a woman says I have to get up early in the morning it means get the fuck out of my car.) I see no reason the default has to be yes when the number of nos is always going to be higher.

I'm shocked that not only did Aziz not lose his show, but there was a huge promo of him when you opened the Netflix app regarding his win. Is the Teflon coating for the me too movement getting multiple blowjobs from your accuser? Or are people already turning on the movement's oversaturation? I'm confused.

The issue at the heart of the "Aziz Ansari conversation" is not Aziz Ansari, or #metoo--its how we've been socialized to be uncomfortable with communication.

Have you seen the meme making the FB rounds that says (paraphrased) "The reason we can't talk to each other about religion or politics is because we've been taught that these are not topics for 'polite conversation'; we'd be better off teaching people how to speak and listen and disagree respectfully."? There's no reason adults should be categorically unable to discuss challenging topics.

Respect does not mandate a gag order.

Respect demands an audience.

It was a hilarious skit. Hilarious in the omg-my-society-is-circling-the-drain way.

I don't have cable so I'm missing s lot of good satire. Thanks for posting.

So on point!! LMAO Just read thru the comments, no surprise the number of comments about where we get our news!!

This is fantastic. My college aged son and I discussed this for an hour. I must say I sounded like a dinosaur. To be honest to me it just sounded like a bad date. I’ve heard the story many times. But I’m 63.

I'm watching SNL on my DVR right now. Just finished the sketch where Will Ferrell is an atheist flight attendant!

On point
