I hope this lands her and her organization some free publicity on the talk show circuit! Hey Ellen, why not give her a call...? :)

I truly hope someday that you get to learn what you've been missing!

Having sex to "increase intimacy/bond" makes no sense to me whatsoever. That's like a different language to me. I have absolutely no idea what that's about.

Yes. It's because of parental coddling, not because parents have been so busy working multiple jobs and freaking out about taking kids to tutoring and soccer classes that they themselves don't (know how to?) cook. Look at the growth of pre-packaged foods in grocery stores. Pre-chopped vegetables. Microwave-and-eat…

I'm really sorry for your bad experience, that is inexcusable.

You could register from there via an Amazon registry!

Some friends of mine bought a house, and then hosted the wedding at their house. It was very small, and they (and their friends) made all of the food for the reception. They said no gifts, but we would have appreciated a registry (we just gave them $$ for the house instead). It was really nice, and I think everyone…

Do what you want to do, and eff everyone else's opinions!

I was engaged for a full year before I did anything resembling wedding planning (other than periodically looking at Pinterest and then closing all my browser windows in a panic). The first time I tried on a wedding dress I was completely scared.

Do you really think "boyfriend"/"girlfriend" and "partner" are synonymous?

No.

I had the same thought. Based on preliminary googling, I am guessing it is the number of partners? N in statistics is sample size, so that could make sense (sort of).

do you have kids? in my experience, most children go through some sort of a picky eating phase. I was raised on sushi and thai food and had a phase (around 5 years old, no less) where all I wanted to eat was boiled pasta with butter and cheese. (we also had a rule in my house where I was REQUIRED to try at least one…

I don't think that's it at all. Rather, it's along the lines of, "look at this super-masculine sex symbol, Brad Pitt, supporting and still valuing his partner through this difficult time, and through these surgeries that make many women feel unfeminine and undesirable."

My strategy: wash your bras in the shower. It's easy to keep up with keeping them clean (when you shower, just wash the one you were wearing), you're delicately hand-washing them to minimize wear without having to set aside special hand-washing time, and you can just hang them to dry over the shower head when you're…

Guys, racerbacks!! Then you don't even need a fancy gadgety thing, though those are cool too. (Alternatively, some places - like the Little Bra Company - sell petite-sized garments that are catered to us narrow-shouldered people.) Also, you may be wearing a band size that's too big, exacerbating the small-shouldered…

If being married means you no longer care what your spouse thinks, you married the wrong person! A basic tenet in long-term relationships is to have more positivity than negativity. "I like your hair shorter, but I love you with your hair any length!" = 1 negative + 1 positive = net negativity, 0. "I don't like your…

I would have said, "Me too!" but that's why I ended up in the ER last week with an excruciatingly painful kidney stone. Not worth it!!
