They will not be fun. They will be terrible (if they even happen).

Muslim here. To clarify - in Islam, the hijab or niqab aren’t required - it’s only required for women (and men) to dress conservatively. The varying types of dress are contingent upon individual choice and culture.

It’s not a wrinkle. Traditions of modesty and coverage aren’t all religious; they’re largely cultural. A Moroccan woman wearing a singlet and shorts is no less Muslim than a Saudi woman in an abaya,

I really wonder how that affects men’s minds too... It’s like saying “don’t think about a crocodile!” So these men are constantly thinking about women’s bodies until all handshakes with all girls of any age has weird sexual overtones regardless of supervision. Basically conditioning men to be obsessed with sex and to…

Yeah. It’s one thing to argue that wearing the hijab is a choice that should be respected, and another to simultaneously hold the view that women should not come into physical contact with men even to shake hands while also believing that women need a male chaperone to go out in the world. I don’t see any way to…

I’m kind of confused at some of the comments which seems to think the article is being 100% positive. I think it’s being pretty evenhanded, especially in the woman running for Saudi Arabia by noting how all of the pics of her running normally at home have been scrubbed from the internet (that’s frankly the scariest…

Counterpoint: the older I get, the less of a shit I give what adults do that only affects them. Only when I got to the part about her younger kids being taken from her did I feel any give-a-shit.

When it comes to live sporting events I feel it’s the onus of the person to avoid spoilers. Tv, movies, people get to it later. Live sports are different, updates on reported in real time. Am I crazy?

Dear god, what do you get for a 46k apartment? Does a magic carpet pick you up at your door, carry you to your bed of clouds, where a specially trained corgi prepares a plate of cheese and a glass of wine from you unlimited wine bar, and then the dude from Tonga rubs you feet?

Guess FB better stop spoiling everything!

Earlier today, Bobby spoiled the end of Titanic :(

Plus, Kanye really is like a big child. I can understand talking to him that way, especially when you’re a mother of 3.

Frankly, I feel a bit that way sometimes. My parents are retired Boomers. When I was young, they took solo vacations at least 3-4 times a year. My brother and I stayed with my maternal grandparents. They had nights out with friends a few nights a month. Again, stayed overnight at my grandparents. I have wonderful…

Mr.cavity search and I have bucket list item: Go to Olympics and at every event, root very very loudly for an athlete from the most obscure country/the biggest underdog.

I’m choosing to read this as a “Boomers are selfish” narrative.

Nannies sound like a luxury, but if your only other option is daycare, and if you have more than one kid, they do end up being the cheaper option for a lot of families, crazily enough. But overall, our country has a serious, serious problem with childcare. There are no decent affordable options for most people. We…

The whole point of this article is that historically grandparents did have a bigger role in childcare. Meaning, in effect, that the grandparents in this article were receiving as much free childcare from their parents as their kids are expecting from them. I’m not saying society can’t change, I’m just saying these…

Which, hey, I’d be okay with, provided that those grandparents don’t complain when little Johnny isn’t as excited to hang out with grandma and grandpa as prior generations were.

Lack of affordable child care in this country is simply insane.

Racism is everywhere. You know what’s not everywhere:
