I don't know for sure who chooses these things, but I feel certain it was not a majority of the Jezebel readers and commenters.

Hey, "Middle America," here. "Middle America" would have chosen someone like Tom Hardy ... or David Tennant ... but not Channing Tatum OR Tom Hiddleston.
And they're not only annoying, but what do they want one to do: Condense the last 10, 20, or 30 years of one's personal life down to a one-line answer? [Answer: Yes.] What are they REALLY looking for, when they ask such a thing?
I'm going to start answering, "Maybe you should tell me?" If they've only known me for…
"that rape and other sex crimes have not increased following the legalization and wide availability of pornography"
Have not increased =/= decreased
No shit. Agreed.
Are you really likening a consensual sexual attraction to a harmful sexual/mental illness? Yes, I KNOW that homosexuality USED to be in the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, but I think we can agree that it really didn't NEED to be, since it is a consensual sexual attraction, whereas pedophilia…
They are, I'm sure of it. I've had abortions, too, for very good reasons, and don't regret them. Yet, I wanted kids. I still don't regret the abortions. I made the very best choice I could, at the time.
I totally agree. And after further thought—before I saw this response—I could see where you might be coming from.
No, I completely understand wanting to read stories about other childfree-by-choice women. When I posted that question, I just thought it was an odd place to look for them . . . but you're right: It needs to be presented as "okay" for women choosing abortion to be childfree, too. I thought about it more and they're…
Sorry if I came off hostile. That was not my intention. I was just wondering why you wanted stories of women who wanted to remain childfree.

Oh, I never felt like a freak. I thought the way that I felt was totally normal. But that's not what I was referring to. It was the lament about the stories not including women who didn't want to ever have kids. On further thought, I can see why the stories of women who go on to have children (the "I want kids, but…
I wasn't responding to the OP, and I was not being hostile or defensive (and I'm puzzled that you think I was). I was wondering at her lament about not finding any stories from women who didn't want kids. The majority of women who have abortions either already do have children or go on to have them, so that's…
Oh, lots of people repeat this lie ... even in the healthcare profession ... even in our legistlature ... fucking idiots. It's a widespread bit of propaganda.
Yeah, I think the only reason most women "regret" an abortion is if they're made to feel that way . . . something that needs to stop, right fucking now.
Why? Do you have to read stories about women like yourself in order to validate your choices? There are lots of women who don't want to ever have kids, but you shouldn't have to read abortion stories to find them.
