When I looked at the slideshow, since I don't recognize a lot of celebrities, I sometimes actually had trouble telling which one was supposedly so hideous and undateable until I read the caption.

I think you missed some of the essential points of the piece. If you only use clearly definable metrics like income and level of education, then no, not all women could "date equal," but that is an impoverished way of thinking about relationship equality.

I think Dreyfuss is right. Media of all kinds just has a greater influence on you when you're young. For one thing, it's often the first time you're exposed to certain ideas, so it seems exciting and fresh (even if it's an 80-year-old book like The Hobbit). By the time we're adults, almost everything feels like

Yeah, I didn't really mean to imply that all screamers are fake, though I can see how I did. But when a guy thinks that all women are supposed to scream and moan like porn actresses when they orgasm, I don't think it's usually because they just happened to have a long string of girlfriends who were natural screamers.

Absolutely. Part of the fun of sex is that all your higher cognitive thinking is driven out by more primal needs, and with it all our pretensions of being "civilized." You have to embrace just being an animal for a little while.

Flight attendants get paid a decent salary with benefits, and most do not want to be considered "glorified waitresses/bartenders," so I don't know why I would treat them like one.

"why are people always shouting when they orgasm in movies??"

Can't you create separate users within the same account now, so that you can segregate the tastes of different family members?

I disagree. I really can't see any point in targeted Facebook recommendations to specific friends. If I got a fb notification saying, "Jane thinks you would enjoy Orange is the New Black on Netflix!", I would disregard it entirely. If she really thought of me, why didn't she just text me to tell me about the show? Why

Well, when I say 'talk,' I mean text or email, of course. I'm not crazy.

Alternative method of recommending movies and shows to friends: talk to your friends.

Maybe they were actually working instead of surfing the internet all day, so they didn't see the news right away?

Sure, women's running shorts with pockets do exist; I have one pair with pockets. But it is pretty uncommon, and those options are often ugly and unflattering. Similarly, it's not technically impossible to find a dress with pockets, but it's not practical to plan that all your dresses will have pockets, so I just

When I go running, I always stick a credit card in my sports bra, in case I decide to buy something on my way home, and I tie my apartment key to my shoelaces. It would be nice to have actual pockets for that shit. Good idea, Lululemon.

Well, a US size 8 is all over the map, since some brands really go nuts with the vanity sizing more than others. But she doesn't look too different from what I'd consider an American size 8. I've fluctuated between 6-12, and I usually wear a size 8 right now.

I get that he was talking about how women go to the frat parties to drink instead of having their own parties. But if you look at his wording, he really seems to think that he has to establish the fact that women drinking is a thing, and that his audience might not really believe that's true.

I defended the English judge's comments from yesterday, but this guy really is an idiot.

A lot of people go for the lively comments section on her column.

Her real name is Emily Yoffe, if that helps.

Prudence makes bad calls all the time. I think the one that bothered me most was this one:
