The article is a cultural piece; it's basically a snapshot and should be taken as such. As for alternatives, I could hardly give you any that would be taken seriously by either side.

Here's an article from the NYT's that highlights what bothers me with Israel's treatment of Palestinians. I would hate to treated that way. To be born somewhere, not allowed to leave without someone else's approval, then told if I didn't like having my movement restricted, well, I could just go live in another…

A lot of stores in NYC will let you bring your dogs in as long as no one complains. I've seen people shopping in the GAP with their dog. I just moved to Philly and have been shocked that they're even more dog friendly than NYC especially outdoor restaurants.

Yes, you are a slut-shamer. Congrats. However, I don't think she's dressed revealingly, but then I also can't understand why anyone bothers to get all worked up about what other people are wearing. And finally, why should she wear a cotton go-under that reaches just under the collarbone to please you or anyone…

Well, I hope you still live in California even if you can't live in San Fran. If you live else where in the USofA, you've now discovered CA is weather nirvana.

After living in NYC for 10yrs, I watch HH to marvel over the square footage the rest of America takes for granted. And I watch HHI to view houses in other countries to catch a glimpse of how they live.

Bummer, RIP Rotte. I will have to look for it on their website so I can fantasize about moving to San Fran though. When I was packing to move a couple of months ago, I ended up watching all the episodes they had listed under California Dreaming. It made the tedious task of packing a little more enjoyable.

That's hilarious. Now, I can't wait to see the Rottweiler with a boner.

I was not a morning person in my teenage years nor in my 20's. I didn't have my first 9 to 5 job until my late 20's, and I about died when I switched to that routine. Slowly, over the years as my lifestyle changed, I morphed into a morning person. For me, the sun is key. The only time I struggle with waking up in…

That is hilariously awesome and I'm going to come back and look at it all day. Go morning people!

It seems to me a lot of the ire directed at Stetten comes from people who are not the typical targets of the internet/social media age. The video of the woman on Gawker getting kicked off a Metro North train for acting badly in public was perfectly acceptable as was revealing her name, her social media addresses,…

As a real woman, all parts are there I swear, I love it when people tell me the proper way to respond to any given situation. I feel I've come so far. Novel idea indeed.

"This is obviously not a case of sexual harassment."

Yes, because the person you're talking to texts away on their phone while you speak isn't a good enough indication that they're not interested.

"And, more importantly, does his wife deserve to find out this way?"

And Madonna's image isn't contrived and calculated? Look, I don't have a favorite in this battle, and feel both are getting publicity they want out of it. But, let's not pretend the Material Girl who stole her entire video from a Marilyn Monroe movie is some kind of original.

Maybe it's the source of the criticism, Mrs. Derivative herself. Glass houses and all that.

See I read it more as Gaga's surprise that Madonna would be all out of sorts when someone else does what dear Madge has done for decades now.

Then stop responding dear if you'd like me to go away.

You're still being disingenuous and playing your role marvelously.
