I terminated a very wanted pregnancy at 26 weeks gestation in June. My daughter had a genetic duplication and abnormalities that would have ensured that her life was brief and painful, had she even survived the rest of pregnancy and birth. If I was not extremely privileged to have excellent health insurance and enough…

great question and great asterisks, sir!

We have to stop criminalizing teenage dumbassness. Teens will always be stupid. That's what being a teenager is for.

Yeah but the surgery for that one is BRUTAL.

Yikes, and you're still married? Phew, that cannot be easy.

"Now what we need is more transgender men. We need more male voices in the transgender community, and that will happen."

Re: new dad, you will definitely get shit and vomit on you, but what I found most surprising is eventually not caring about it getting on me. On ME. I'm still aghast at the idea of shit getting on the carpet or the couch or whatever, but my hand? Whatever, stick my hand under the faucet, problem solved. I actively…

I've been on flights with severe turbulence were newspapers and sweatshirts and books go flying into the air - its not uncommon for that kind of turbulence to happen on even a…

What the fuck, that is not a victory for females or business travelers or anyone except for maybe derps who love playing purse roulette when it comes to dangerous projectiles slamming into someone's head when the plane drops.

Seriously, go get that purse and have someone throw it at your face as hard as they can, then…

Thank you for your tireless dedication to journalism, sir.
