Wow. Salon just keeps digging.
"Now, for the ear steam: I think it's unfair to blame this sexual miscommunication on men."
Holy shit. While Joan Walsh goes on and on about sexism in the media, Broadsheet proves you don't have to be a dude to engage in blame the victim bullshit. I can't believe you just related how men ignore signals and STILL put responsibility for rape on alleged "mixed signals".
Y'know what? College age men can memorize tons of puzzles in video games requiring hair trigger moves. They can design new social network applications. They can grasp the slight nuances of sports, movies. They fight in wars. They are very aware of their own fragile feelings and write about them ad naseum in blogs and songs and etc. So don't tell me they can't understand something as obvious as "I need to sleep."
There is no misunderstanding, there's only entitlement and how much one thinks they can get away with.
Nice to see Salon is always willing to step on someone to please the trolls.
