One of my first indulgence bags was this boxy black nylon number that every girl on campus had. I loved Kate Spade. The bright colors! The beautiful clothing and accessories! I just knew I would be a fan for life.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

That this is just something men do. Well I’m sorry, but I think more highly of men than that. (And if you are a man who is making this argument, you’ll forgive me if I don’t ever want to be in a room alone with you.)&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And when you insist that the only way to prevent rape is for women change their behavior - whether it’s recommending that they carry a weapon or not wear certain kinds of clothing - you are not only giving out false information, you are arguing that misogyny is a given. That the world will continue to be a dangerous and unfair place for women and we should just get used to the fact. It’s a pessimistic and frankly, lazy, view on life. Because when you argue that this is “just the way things are,” what you are really saying is - I don’t care enough to do anything about it.&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;&lt;p&gt;-&lt;a href="http://www.thenation.com/blog/173298/rape-not-inevitable-zerlina-maxwell-men-and-hope"&gt;Rape Is Not Inevitable: On Zerlina Maxwell&lt;/a&gt;, Men and Hope, my latest at &lt;em&gt;The Nation&lt;/em&gt; (via &lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://jessicavalenti.tumblr.com/"&gt;jessicavalenti&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/p&gt;

The Obama administration and Democrats are moving quickly to reframe the issue and move new policy. As a citizen, I think it is appropriate and overdue. As a political observer, I think it’s smart politics. As a Republican, I think it’s yet another instance where the party, by refusing to recognize reality, is going to end up looking like the “stupid party” that fails to adapt and evolve to changing circumstances in our society.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Unless the GOP comes out with a proactive plan that has some appearance of responding to recent events, then it continues to play defense and digs deeper the hole it has been digging for itself in recent years. On issues where the physics are moving irrevocably forward, like immigration, gay rights, and guns, the Republican Party continues to look backward. And backward is a sure path toward irrelevance.&lt;/p&gt;”&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt; - &lt;em&gt;Mark McKinnon, &lt;a href="http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/01/09/guns-are-killing-the-republican-party.html"&gt;Guns Are Killing the Republican Party&lt;/a&gt; (via &lt;a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://haygirlhay.tumblr.com/"&gt;haygirlhay&lt;/a&gt;)&lt;/em&gt;</description><link>http://cosmicvagabond.tumblr.com/post/40531001668</link><guid>http://cosmicvagabond.tumblr.com/post/40531001668</guid><pubDate>Mon, 14 Jan 2013 13:34:43 -0500</pubDate></item><item><title>thatkindofwoman:

The story leaked after Boehner bragged about the incident to House Republicans&lt;/li&gt;
