The rape culture of the 1980s, explained by Sixteen Candles<\/a>, on Vox\u2014-\u201cSome of the most popular comedies of the \u201980s are filled with supposedly hilarious sequences that portray what in 2018 would be unambiguously considered date rape.\u201d<\/p>\n

Are evangelical adoption agencies stealing children?<\/a> on Dame\u2014\u201cAccording to historian Arissa Oh, author of To Save the Children of Korea<\/i><\/a>, the original Holt International Children\u2019s Services application form for prospective parents was only a half-page long. The application requested the following information: husband\u2019s name and job; wife\u2019s name (her profession was not requested; she was expected to be a homemaker); sex and ages of children desired; and a description of the prospective parents\u2019 personal relationship with Jesus Christ.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Abandoned World of 1982<\/a>, on The Atlantic\u2014\u201cCheerful teen movies aimed at the high-school audience\u2014John Hughes films among them\u2014accurately reflected commonly held American attitudes about the male need for sex and the comic nature of the extremes a normal, suburban male would go to extract it from girls, often against their clearly stated wishes.\u201d<\/p>\n

Why Conservative Women Are OK with Harassment<\/a>, on Harper\u2019s Bazaar\u2014\u201cBut these women appear to be engaged in a campaign to make the world worse for themselves. It\u2019s deeply counterintuitive. It\u2019s like seeing someone get punched and shouting, \u2018this is fine, because I have experienced harder punches.'\u201d<\/p>\n

Men Are Defending Brett Kavanaugh Because They\u2019re Afraid<\/a>, on Vice\u2014\u201cThis argument smells of fear. If expressions of male violence that were once justified as \u2018boys will be boys\u2019 are no longer permissible, it will mark a major cultural shift, one which many men are not prepared for.\u201d<\/p>\n
