I forgive people when they can no longer hurt me, either because it's no longer in their nature or because they have been forcibly removed from my life. Then I'm cool with them, either way.

However, I never forget. I've said it before and I'll say it again. People who pressure you to "forgive and forget" are just hoping for another opportunity to hurt you, or at the very least they don't value your right to prevent it. Anybody who really respects your right to protect yourself will never ask you to pretend an injury didn't happen (such as how you've been hurt in the past and by whom) for the benefit of their feelings. In that situation what they're really asking you to do is to make yourself more likely to be hurt similarly in the future so that they don't have to hurt now.

And... uh... no.

Oh, absolutely. If we can't agree on things like my basic human rights, we're living in totally different universes (and you're evidently living in one where women aren't human like men are human), and I'm not obligate to share yours with you.

So yeah. Anti-choicers can go be friends with women who don't care whether their friends respect them as human beings. But to me it's important.
