So, I grew up down the street from a gorgeous cemetery, and being a goth kid, I staged many a photo shoot on its hallowed grounds. Granted, my dad was buried there, so I had some kind of ownership rights... And also the internet didn't exist then so I couldn't appropriate a global tragedy for my own selfish vanity...…

This cemetery has a lot of Jewish old Hollywood types buried here, hence the Jewish imagery. It's not an exclusively Jewish cemetery or mausoleum. The only exclusively "Jewish" part of this cemetery is the Orthodox section, which is outdoors.

She must have been in unbelievable pain with such an extensive infection.

Yeah, I wondered about that too. The story kind of left out the part about whether the patient lived or died.

I know - I want to know if she's okay! Man..

That's what I'm thinking. Why the outrage in this?? She's in LA. She's not standing in the Auschwitz museum, or in the former ovens, taking these pictures. This is a currently used, California graveyard. Why is it that Jewish mausoleums are bad, but the umpteen thousand hits you get if you google "fashion photo…

If this actually is the place, then this is important info that totally changes the tone of this post. Thanks.

Cosigned. We get it. You have money and you don't have to work. Don't fucking rub it in for the rest of us.

Note: If you describe yourself as 'funemployed,' you can go 'funck' yourself.

Some unasked advice that may or may not help:

There are letters from Napoleon to Josephine, in which he says, in effect, "I'll be home in a week. Stop bathing. I can't wait to smell you." That's awesome.

As an extremely self-conscious obese woman who ran scared out of the room during her first sexual encounter because she was so nervous, I'm tellin' you girl, just let it go. There are men who like every kind of woman out there, no matter their looks, size, smell, or anything you think may be unattractive about…

You know being gay doesn't disqualify you from being a misogynist, right? Man crotch can smell funky as hell, too, if it's not the crotch you want. Gay guys saying vaginas are gross as a way of reaffirming their sexuality is as much a power move as straight bros saying the same. I'm sure you mean well, I've just heard…

Fuck those dudes. I trim and wax but I definitely leave hair down there. Totally bare is totally creepy. I also bet none of those dudes groom their shit. I've had to deal with some gnarly, untrimmed messes on dudes. Fuck that.

Oh girl, don't! You're wonderful, your lady parts are wonderful, and no matter what your size, there is going to be someone that goes boner crazy for you (if that's your thing). I've been at both extremes on the size issue, and somehow I'm *more* confident being obese than I ever was at a normal weight (or especially…

No.

I disagree - one of the major reasons for FGM is to "cleanse" women. The author conveyed that very well. But of course this isn't an article about FGM, so there isn't a need to go into deeper details about the practice (which obviously varies from place to place, but what she described DOES occur nonetheless). And…

Cultural or religious practice or not doesn't excuse it, it is child abuse.

Can I be real honest here? I'm an almost 30 year old virgin, with extreme self-esteem issues. I've never been physically intimate because I am terrified of rejection or that I'm sexually abnormal in some way. Also, I'm obese and can't imagine how anyone could legitimately be attracted to me. This article struck a…

Hey. I've pushed 3 kids out my vagina. My vagina is AWESOME and I won't have anyone badmouthing it!
