Jesus calm down. I’ve been a bridesmaid at a wedding where one of the bridesmaids was pregnant, one had a newborn and was lactating and needed access to her boobs, one was 6’1, one was 5’3 and the other was obese. The groom wanted us all in the same skin tight, high necked, micro mini dresses and the bride shut that…

This is what I thought might happen too. It must kill the moderates to have to pay lip service to the religious nuts and I really can’t see how a schism is unavoidable.

Do you even know what a modern coal mine looks like? Mining jobs are the most sought after jobs in my country and they pay A TON. And yes, women work in them. Plus, pretending that men all work these horrifically dangerous jobs while women lounge around is straight up bullshit and you know it.

I broke up with my ex the day I finally had enough and yelled “I get paid at work to do administration, I don’t want to come home and have to do it for you for free”. That was my riding off into the sunset moment. I feel for you so badly.

You and me both. I spent me 20’s being the kind of available, sensitive and self -sacrificing girlfriend I thought I had to be, but I reached my 30’s and basically did say “fuck this”. My emotional labour goes to my friends and family now because they return it. I have never been happier. I don’t see a romantic…

I want to see a Trump / Clinton debate so bad now, like holy shit. The GIFS alone...

It’s the media’s fault that this witch hunt was convened by Congress? How will reading a history book change what is happening on the political landscape right now? I have a minor in political studies and I fucking hate politics because of the what is actually happening like women’s health services being dismantled…

I’m not American so correct me if I’m wrong, but after the last Presidential election, weren’t the GOP talking a big game about changing their strategy and doing some soul searching? It seems to me like they’re just doubling down on the most crazy bananas policy that lost them the election last time. Do they not have…

This isn’t just a remark though. This is asking women to move into a community that is literally wearing its disdain for them all over it. No one would be defending their right to free speech if this was happening to women in a workplace, but somehow its acceptable where they’re trying to get an education?

I agree to a point but when you’re a young woman being dropped off in the middle of all this, how is this not creating a hostile environment for them?

Yeah I imagine all the young women being dropped off at school for the first time are really finding it funny rather than actually thinking they’re being dropped off in the middle of Rape Town. Creating a hostile environment for women trying to get an education sure is hilarious! Why don’t they lighten up?

My friend is divorced with a kid who has the father’s last name and she married a guy with a kid who has his last name. She kept her maiden name so there are 4 people and 3 surnames in their family. The only place they had any trouble was one TSA guy in the US and even that was relatively minor and no problem once…

Try being from Australia. Jesus, you would not believe the shit we get asked.

The only reason unjust executions took place was because the church sanctioned death as a punishment for heresy, which is utterly indefensible no matter how much “inquiry” you put into it. Saying “oh but they established legal trials to make sure they were only killing REAL non-believers” is like saying “Oh I…

Believe what you want, but don’t force you’re beliefs in other people via legislation.

This seems to be a conservative religious trend: caring about life until it’s actually born, but then you’re on your own.

When did this discussion about Paul Ryan turn into a discussion about your personal problems travelling with kids?

Forcing women to give birth, then refusing to provide assistance to raise the child they didn’t want in the first place isn’t valuing life. It’s punishing “sluts” and I wish more republicans would at least admit it.

That a guy choosing dresses for women with a bunch of different body shapes and other variables is a really bad idea?

Being a bridesmaid is expensive as hell. Suits all look the same more or less and can be rented while bridesmaids have to outlay hundreds of dollars on a dress and shoes that will never be worn again, and, depending on how generous the bride is, hair and makeup. Assuming the bride is a good friend, I’ll outlay cash…
