Umm... we OFTEN tell allies to not just do whatever they think is helpful, but to ask then do.

But that’s part of what we’re supposed to do the day of the strike. Not just sit at home and painting our toenails.

I would hope your company would be on board! Maybe you can speak with them ahead of time and put something even greater into place. Like all staff spend the day contacting reps, etc.

I can still sing all the words to every song on his Double Live album.

I’ve seen exactly one. And the reason why it wasn’t weird or tacky was because it was basically a family/couple photoshoot where they acted like she wasn’t even pregnant. Just regular cute and loving photos where mama happens to have a big belly.

I hate to disagree, but the very fact that there’s actual room for limbs and thrusting, plus being able to lay back and look at the stars afterwards means it’s pretty fan-fucking-tastic.

Do you think he’s for real? Or do you think he’s just trying to appeal to the PCs that are horrified by the likes of Kellie Leitch and Kevin O’Leary?

First of all, like most language created by people of colour and then become ‘mainstream’, it becomes an object of derision and scorn. But the word, and certainly the concept, are fucking fine.

This was the announcement/description for our event in Winnipeg, Manitoba (Canada):

Our march in Winnipeg was largely organized by Indigenous leaders, women of colour, members of the LGBTQ community... there were speeches made by Elders, women immigrants, women of different religions... It was beautiful <3

My partner and I have also played with (ha!) sex schedules, but what we’ve found works even better is to acknowledge that some nights you’re too tired to get someone else off, but not too tired to get yourself off. So a few nights a week, we just lay next to each other and talk dirty while we’re each pleasuring…

Just in case you needed a reminder of how you started this thread:

Lol. All of a sudden you’re concerned about hostility. Good joke! :D

You’re the one raging like a dick all over this thread, and you started it by shitting all over an awesome initiative started by a group of women who are invested in eradicating DV with no real, valid critique.

Hey! Guess what! When I was in an abusive relationship and couldn’t find the strength to bring it up first, I was PRAYING for someone to notice and ask me if I was ok. It’s almost like people have different personalities and situations and needs and you’re not the only special snowflake who’s been through shit.

What in the fuck are you on about? I never read anywhere that you were a victim, you seem to have no sympathy or capacity to appreciate anyone else’s opinions on this (including stylists and other victims) and if you had any real, actual valid issues, they were buried under a thousand tonnes of raging, defensive…

Come on. You know that’s not what either her or the OP are suggesting.

What the fuck is your problem? You need a nap. 

So what’s the timeless, classic alternative?
