@ambertamblyn @JillFilipovic But really? if it was a missed opportunity to wade in - why didn't she do that, rather than bemoan that it was written?

[Kate Rohdenburg @DancingGrapes]

@JillFilipovic or, to be less "you should have kept your mouth shut" about it: "When a person is reporting feeling coerced, and other people say the story shouldn’t have been told—or that people who relate to it are overreacting—that’s a more disquieting type of policing." -@jameshamblin

[Kate Rohdenburg @DancingGrapes]

@JillFilipovic, maybe this alternative reflection would be helpful. "Part of "not that bad" is a preemptive minimization of our experiences." https://t.co/bxXXAs4frI (5)

[Kate Rohdenburg @DancingGrapes]

"This will only happen if we ... recognize that human sexual interactions are not always clearcut: either assault and worth worrying about or technically consensual and therefore not at a problem." What a shame that the opportunity was lost in this scolding essay. (4)

[Kate Rohdenburg @DancingGrapes]

Stop telling women that they told their story wrong - or shouldn't have told it in the first place because it takes away from the "more important" stories or because it might complicate how we talk about sexism and sexual violence. (3)

[Kate Rohdenburg @DancingGrapes]

If "We can – we must – wade into the messy, complicated nature of sex in a misogynist world." Then we have to value women's stories even when they are of less than plant masturbation. (2) https://t.co/J7jAAHJmO6

It’s obvious but infuriating that #highereducation is a capitalist enterprise, not an educational one.

“I want people to understand the consequences of their choices” = “I want to blame girls for the ways boys exploit them.” #sexting #nope

Corporate culture that exploits esp female workers is not unique. Seems most @skipthedishes tweets are apologies. https://t.co/RTUzEzjs70
