3	She splashed hot water on the clerks face while the cop was right behind her. When used hyperbolically, they can mean the same thing. It makes sense when you think about it: what is the most hyperbolic thing you can say? Well, you could say that it's literal. Words don't have fixed meanings, so as the use of "literal" became adopted in contemporary literature as a hyperbolic synonym of "figurative", the definition was added to dictionaries (under an informal or rare heading, so as not to confuse people).	/r/PussyPassDenied	25/09/17 01:37 PM
6	She splashed hot water on the clerks face while the cop was right behind her. This is why I thought it was genderless, although the fact that very few (if any) knights were women has probably contributed to it being unusual to call a woman chivalrous for an act towards another person.	/r/PussyPassDenied	25/09/17 01:29 PM
28	She splashed hot water on the clerks face while the cop was right behind her. Is chivalry supposed to be directed specifically at women? I was always under the impression it meant putting others before yourself and proactively defending the defenseless, regardless of gender. IE it's chivalrous to hold the door for anyone, and to speak up when somebody is being mistreated.	/r/PussyPassDenied	25/09/17 06:02 AM
25	Criminology student, 22, who falsely accused a taxi driver of raping her after he refused to accept her kebab-soaked £10 note is JAILED for 16 months Yeah but here in America we're not concerned about benefit to society, we're concerned about Justicetm. Justicetm is about punishment and locking people up because they're bad guys and bad guys can never be good because they're bad. We keep them separate not to protect the people but to punish the baddies.	/r/PussyPassDenied	19/09/17 06:44 PM
5	How to fix "rape culture": Teach women to not throw their babies in the dumpster We interrupt this program to inform you that there is a killer on the loose in your neighborhood. We're not going to tell you to stay inside or lock your doors because we don't want to make you feel like it's your fault he's killing people. Killer, if you can hear this, please stop killing people. It's a mean and hurtful thing to do.	/r/MensRights	07/01/16 06:33 PM

You can kill a man, but you can't kill an idea.
