Cheerleaders for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers perform during a game.Imago/ZUMA NFL cheerleaders might appear to be a happy, peppy bunch, but off the sidelines their working conditions are far from cheery.
On Monday, a former cheerleader for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers sued the team, claiming she was paid less than $2 per hour during her 2012-13 season of work. It was the fifth such lawsuit this year; cheerleaders for the Oakland Raiders (Raiderettes), the Cincinnati Bengals (Ben-Gals), the New York Jets (Flight Crew), and the Buffalo Bills (Jills) have filed similar suits. Meet the EU Parliament’s (Likely) First-Elected Feminist Party Member.

Made To Penetrate: Female-on-Male Rape.
Charlie woke up to a blank-faced girl straddling him.
He had been disrobed, was erect, and as her hips began to shift in short, quick movements, he realized he was inside of her. Frozen with disbelief, Charlie laid still. He faked climaxing, hoping it would prompt her to dismount and leave the room. Eventually she did, but only after he rolled to his side and pretended to sleep. The next morning Charlie wasn’t sure what to think. “The most traumatic part was the complete assumption of consent,” he tells me nearly two decades later. In a recent study, 1 in 6 male college students reported having been raped. Tina Belcher's Sexual Revolution.

How Iran Became One of the World's Most Futuristic Countries. Imo the government should take it a step further, free contraception and a cash stipend for not having children.
We need to do this here in USA, and get Catholicism behind it. I understand the reasoning behind the old rule to help promote and populate more people into Christianity through wars, famine, and plague, but we're in a new age now; the fact that the most powerful church doesn't push contraceptives more and supports having tons of babies thus overpopulating the world bringing it to it's knees is just CRAZY. This is not a bash on a religion in particular it's just picking on the big guy so that the others may fall in.
We have to do something to keep all these "god loving" (and non) on this planet. Regardless of what happens next, we have evidence that in one generation, a large and religious country like Iran was able to lower its rate of population growth tremendously. Conseil des ministres : place aux hommes, SVP !
Rape of Thrones · For Our Consideration. Sunday night’s episode of Game Of Thrones took an even darker turn than usual: Jaime Lannister, who has transitioned from one of the story’s villains to one of its heroes, takes the opportunity of his son’s death to rape his sister and lover, Cersei—in the Westerosi equivalent of a church, while Joffrey’s corpse is laid out on the slab.
It’s hyperbolically awful—a violation of Cersei’s agency, a violation of the sanctity of the grand sept, a violation of the reverence that ought to be provided to a corpse. Much has been made, and will continue to be made, about George R.R. Martin’s Westeros, a violent, dark, dangerous world, especially for women. Your Penis Is Getting in the Way of My Science. "[It's not true] that nothing could ever exist that challenges the penis/vagina sexual system — nor the system of sexual selection that led to it.
" Someone might be interested to know that — based on what I've read — the factors that selected for this penetrative female organ are the same as the factors that selected for the better-known penetrative male organs. Typically females spend more energy and resources on reproduction than males. Scientists discover the animal kingdom’s first ‘female penis’
She simply also happens to sport a penis that she introduces in the male's vagina Contrary to popular belief, the presence or absence of certain sex organs isn't the determining factor when deciding which animal of a species is female and which is male.
In fact, biologists don't use sex chromosomes either. They actually rely on the size of an animal's gametes — sperm in males and oocytes in females. As the rule goes, females are the sex that contribute the largest gametes, whereas males are the sex that contribute the smallest gametes and therefore expend the least amount of energy on producing these cells.
So, in this particular instance of sex-role reversal, the convention still applies: the female in these species of insect produces the largest gametes — egg cells. Agresser les femmes pour les éloigner de la place publique. Pendant les manifestations de masse qui se sont succédé depuis 2011 à la place Tahrir, au Caire, les viols et les autres actes violents dirigés contre les femmes ont défrayé la chronique.

Sheryl Sandberg has conquered the worlds of business, publishing, and tech, but in the English language, Facebook's chief operating officer has found a formidable foe. Her crusade against the word “bossy”—on the grounds that labeling young girls “bossy” deters them from becoming leaders—has been blasted far and wide, on the left and the right. Dave Lesser, a daddy-blogger at Time, claims “bossy” is gender-neutral; he says he uses the word to scold both his daughter and his son. “Is bossy used that often to criticize girls and women?”
He asks. “Is the word ever used to describe anyone over the age of 11?” Yes and yes, if you look at the data. Women should not accept street harassment as 'just a compliment' The dehumanised discussion of your body by a group of passers-by is different from a compliment.

It being dark but for the street lamps, it wasn't until they came quite a lot closer that I started to notice the tell-tale signs. Sexist Humor No Laughing Matter, Psychologist Says. A research project led by a Western Carolina University psychology professor indicates that jokes about blondes and women drivers are not just harmless fun and games; instead, exposure to sexist humor can lead to toleration of hostile feelings and discrimination against women.
“Sexist humor is not simply benign amusement. It can affect men’s perceptions of their immediate social surroundings and allow them to feel comfortable with behavioral expressions of sexism without the fear of disapproval of their peers,” said Thomas E. Ford, a new faculty member in the psychology department at WCU. “Specifically, we propose that sexist humor acts as a ‘releaser’ of prejudice.” My boobs, my burden.
