The only solution is a return to school uniforms. Sexy, sexy school uniforms.

You are so gotdamn right about how awful depression is. I'm sorry you had to battle this and I am very glad you didn't succeed. How are you these days? I hope you are well. I wish you well.

I know it's the media's job, but when a celebrity commits suicide I really, really hate how they drag all their dirty laundry up for consideration. It's cruel, especially considering that possibly she was ashamed about her financial struggles and spent the last few years trying to redeem herself and get her label in…

For me, depression wasn't triggered by just one thing, and my suicide attempt wasn't either. It was a slow, steady descent into hopelessness. A truly horrible fight with my abusive boyfriend at the time was the last straw, sure, but it wasn't the sole cause. And the fight wasn't what motivated me to do what I did. The…

Maybe if you had published this in 72 point people would have read your piece so you wouldn't have to copy and paste nearly the entire thing into the comments.

I'm a woman in a STEM field and I absolutely agree with you.

I think this is a phenomenon that reaches across all fields and topics... One of my favorite past times at work is watching men talk about things that they know nothing about, trying their hardest to seem like they have a firm grasp on the subject. Sometimes, the less they know, the louder they get. It's amazing. And…

This is my life now. I'm a science student in a great university, often scared to speak up in class because I fear judgment, and don't want to look like a dim black girl. I'm trying to get over it, but it sucks. I know people often assume I'm gonna be fine, career-wise, because LOOK AT YOU, YOU'RE BLACK. Not because…

This is a really interesting thread. I'm one of those STEM females and yes, I was totally plagued with doubt my whole young life. I was the product of a very smart but poor and educationally disadvantaged family. I approached my school careers person (to whom I sauntered up and said "I wanna go to university (shocked…

I did my undergrad in math and now I am a professor of economics. When I was a student I was definitely afraid to speak and ask questions for fear of looking like an idiot. My professors always told me I was brilliant. I always thought I was fooling all of them. "How can I be brilliant? I never speak up" but my exams…

Yeah, I studied Engineering and a big part of it seemed to be confidence. In study sessions, the guys would speak up and give an answer or insight decisively, while women would frame their responses as a suggestion or possibility. The guys were still wrong as often as the women, but they didn't seem to care. We women…

Can we please not call them "pro-vaxxers?" We don't call all tenured biologists pro-evolutionists or all board certified physicians pro-AIDS-truthers. There's no such thing as a pro-vaxx person or physician. There are normal, functional, educated people, and there are vaxx-deniers, AIDS-deniers, and evolution deniers.…

Instead of "pro-vaxxers" can we just be "normal people" or "rational everyday humans?" I don't want these anti-vax people to be given any more ideas that this bullshit is a two-sided "debate."

"It's because of you I continue to work. Thank you! : )"

Raising her Q Score. Now we know what Jenny McCarthy's entire misguided, deadly anti-vaccination campaign has been about.

hmm i feel like the sketch was just kinda having fun with the rumors that had gone around at that pt that she was a lesbian. i also think that ellen tended to have a sorta glass closet approach to her sexuality + so she was kind of teasing the audience a bit as well as having an in-joke with the people who knew her or…

I've been even more passive than that. Basically, I am a total whore on Linkedin. I will add almost anyone, and certainly anyone in my field. So I turn up a LOT when people are searching.

I guess I've finally succumbed to adulthood. As far as I'm concerned, that was the internet equivalent of Perez drawing cum on celebs...and this is an article about it.

Why is it a given that women must have penetrative sex involving penises?

Seriously. I drown in job offers via Linkedin — from doing nothing other than popping in to make a minor update to my profile every other month or so. I've also used it to help other people find work and/or do favors for people who are in a position to help me out down the road.
