I completely agree that by making your baby or child's weight a big deal, you certainly pass on a message of body stigma. However, I also think that a lot of parents feed their kids absolute garbage with no regard for what growing minds and bodies really need. Of course I accept and understand that some of that…

The earliest one I can remember was the boy who sat next to me in 3rd Grade. I have no idea why I thought he was so dreamy. Maybe because he was one of the few kids who was genuinely nice to me instead of teasing me ruthlessly. But that wasn't even like a crush crush. My first "git it bad" crush crush was in 7th…

Tell your friend to look up the word "slasher" on Google. They got a lot stuff on that there internet.

I love the Light Pringles because I get to feel like I'm having a naughty indulgence with way less guilt. I have never had any weird Olestra effects, but I have also never gorged myself in an entire can, nor eaten them for days and days in a row. The serving size on the nutrition label is 15 chips, which is a nice…

Right, but do you really plan on eating like that forever? People who believe that the only way to lose weight is to cut out everything but the bare nutritional necessities are kidding themselves. Most people cannot and will not maintain that lifestyle and will gain back in short time what they have lost.

Um, no. False story. As someone who has recently purchased a wedding gown, I can assure you I looked at David's (didn't buy my dress there, but did get my bridesmaid dresses and shoes), and they carry a fairly large selection of dresses up to a size 24, or 26. Now granted, bridal wear is easily one or two sizes…

This makes me fucking sick. Your body, your choice. Not your mom's. Not your dad's. Not your guardian's. Doesn't matter if you're a minor. If you're old enough to have sex, you're old enough to make a choice to be pregnant or not.

Except for the fact that in the states where medical use is legal, federal law dictates that employers are in no way required to accept or recognize your medical marijuana use as kosher. So while you may have a license, your boss may not give a damn.

I agree that what he is protesting against is deeply hurtful to her and to all of us who support gay marriage and equality. That being said, he has the right in this country to speak his mind, and he also has the right not to be touched by strangers, even without religious doctrine he has the right not to be touched.…

I don't agree with many ordinances of the Chasidic view of Judaism, but not all Chasidic men will freak the fuck out if you touch them. They may ask you not to do it again, they may even give you a wee scolding. I have been in this position myself, having, without thinking, offered my hand to shake a Rabbi's when I…

As a Rabbi herself, she should have known better that he would be upset by being touched by a woman. It is something very well known about the Chasidic community. But his choosing to spit on her for the violation is unacceptable. Having worked in close quarters with several Ultra Orthodox Jews when I lived in NY, I…

Um, have you lived in Los Angeles?

As someone who has only seen one random episode of True Blood, after watching this recap I must say:

But who exactly is subsisting on Pringles Light alone? And anyone who is genuinely committed to successfully losing weight through a low fat and low calorie diet is likely only consuming substitute fats and sweeteners on occasion to replace typical indulgences. I may not have Splenda every day or Light chips, but…

I skipped the sugar pills once because I was going on vacation, and well fuck that. When I finally got my period the next month I was a raging lunatic from all the hormones and bled for nearly 2 weeks. This is not the miracle I was promised.

You see, women have this thing called a "vagina" that inherently makes them dumb, emotional, and incapable of managing even the simplest of tasks without needing the help and guidance of the all mighty penis.
