Women seriously need to stop it with this 'group think' mentality. They act like if you insult SOME women for being sluts, then you've insulted ALL WOMEN. No, I'm insulting that small number of women, BECAUSE THEY ARE STUPID. Women who aren't like that, stop defending the idiots who are - lest yo...

A Word About Rape Psychology and the Logic Behind the Slut Walks

jlassie said:

So you want to draw attention to the fact that rape isn't caused by the way people are dressed...by dressing like sluts. You've proven nothing. It does nothing to address the root causes of rape. It's a distraction, a sideshow, meaningless, counterproductive. That's using your own logic, too.

  The problem is not that women who cheat and sleep around are criticized and vilified TOO MUCH, it's that MEN who cheat and sleep around aren't criticized and vilified ENOUGH. Promiscuity is wrong when either gender does it. It's selfish, it spreads disease, and it hurts people.

  Here's an important point that wasn't brought up in this video: I don't think Cain realizes that "shale oil" and "Shell Oil" are not the same thing, which is a deeply disturbing thought. "Shell Oil" is a specific oil company, while "shale oil" is a kind of oil that is obtained from within undergr...

  Any idea who organized this studio band for Yasha? Considering he also had a contract with Brunswick at the time, I would guess that Russ Morgan might have had something to do with putting this session together.

He also sang on a few records with Kardos and Barnet. On this record, the backup voice seems somewhat timid and hidden,...
