This is brilliant. Goodbye forever, Lifehacker and all Gawker sites.

Yup. My great-aunt was 103 when she died. She had zero wrinkles, and she lived in a sunny and warm climate. She had fair skin and blue eyes, but she came from a generation that did not sunbathe. I swear the only way you knew she was old was from her snow white hair and her slightly saggy chin.

Thank you for this. It's often overlooked that childbirth can kill both mother and baby. If I had given birth a hundred years ago my child and I would have died. I don't feel guilty about having tried for "natural" and ended with a c-section. I haven't experienced anyone giving me sympathy for it, most are…

Yep, I realized when I saw your reply.

Oh I meant the Craigslist dude, sorry I wasn't clear!

Except that he would take it as a come on if you put your hand on his shoulder, not the schooling of a child that it is.

You're a young 'un that's for sure! I do remember when size 0 and 2 did not exist. Size 4 was the smallest regular size, size 3 was the smallest junior size. I remember on Laverne and Shirley that Shirley was always so proud of being a "Perfect size 6," which would have been size 2 nowadays. I used to wear size 8…

It's so weird to me. We taught our daughter to say vulva, vagina, and penis. As in "It's time to get out of the tub, wash your vulva." When she was in first grade and went to a swim party, another girl in her class apparently caught a glimpse of her changing in the locker room and told her "You have a big vagina,"…

Sadly, it's not just women who have to deal with this crap. My husband and I both have stories of the physical harassment we've received when we were servers. Along with the usual butt groping, my husband also had one woman grab his tie and try to pull him toward her, like he was a little dog on a leash there to do…

That is just too awful. I don't get how people feel that a woman who's all drugged up and not functioning is going to be any fun. Just too awful.

I'm sorry that you've had to experience this more than once, it's awful. I'm glad that the worst was vomity drunk (I'm stealing that phrase!). I might start buying bottled beer and opening it myself, and carrying it with me to the bathroom in a specially crocheted holster. Or maybe just stay home, drink whatever I…

Sadly, "it's probably safe when you get it" isn't always true either. My friend and I were drugged by the bartenders at a small bar on New Year's Eve. We got there early for a pre-party drink since we had to wait for some other friends to go to an actual party. She and I ordered our drinks, and then the bartender gave…

I've been seeing this misspelling all week in various places! I saw it so many times that I started to think I had had a minor brain aberration and had been misspelling it in my mind all along.

I'm with you, gender neutral choices would be great. I'm not sure why the clothes are cut differently for girls, it makes sense for women's clothing, but girls are shaped pretty much like boys until they hit puberty, so it's a bit ridiculous. I especially hate that boys jeans are made with reinforced knees, and girls…

My daughter is 8, she wears "boys" and "girls" t-shirts interchangeably. She is shaped like a kid, not a woman, so yes, the body shape of an 8 year old is not much different between genders. Sometimes the boy's sizes are larger, but not always. I've found that "boys" clothes are usually sturdier and last longer too.…

Thanks for the tip!

And less teal, ugly goldarned teal.

Gawd yes! All I want is some simple t-shirts that used to be available at any store that aren't tissue-thin or pre-worn-to-shreds. I need to wear them at work and look like a grown up, but still be able to crawl behind furniture and get dirty. It's just impossible. I got all three that were available at Target and…

Underwires don't stab if the bra fits properly. Most of us don't wear the right size bra.

It's true! I was harassed a lot as a young woman, and didn't realize at the time just how much of a daily stress it actually was. Not only am I free from harassment now that I'm middle-aged, but I am beginning to notice people deferring to me in situations like getting on an elevator or going through doors. I feel…
