If prostitution is the oldest profession, “choreplay” (EYE FUCKING ROLL) is its oldest cousin. Women have *alllllllways* done/had to do shit like this to get what they wanted or needed from their men. We just never had fuckin cutesy Pinteresty names for it.

THISSSSSSSS.
Well, I dunno what to tell ya, sister. I’ve been watching the postings daily for a decade, both to keep an eye on comparables in the starter home market to track how my own investment is doing (we bought in 2009 on a leap of faith), and to watch the trends on our dream property (an acre or more in the metro area). I…
Hey, man, I’d take irritated vacuum Zach over that insane person fangirling all over Maddox at his university in Seoul any day of the week.
This shit gives me heartburn. The case law is exceedingly clear. The precedent for gender stereotyping = sex discrimination is miles thick and decades old - Price Waterhouse was decided 30 years ago. Discrimination against trans workers for being trans falls *exactly* under what Price Waterhouse says is unlawful sex…
I never give a number without first screwing my eyes into the doctors head and saying it’s a useless scale. Almost always the direct gaze discomfits them to the point where it sort of “breaks” that professional demeanor shield and they admit, yeah, it’s a pretty bad tool, but it’s the only one we’ve got. Then I know…
Actually, yeah. We’ve been keeping a close eye on market prices and trends since we bought our place in 2009. Those were specific examples. That “private estate” is a place a friend bought in Wayzata/Minnetonka (not sure which side of the line it falls on) for $680k about 6 months ago. It’s unbelievable. I’m in a…
Right. It’s just...there are so many of them.
Precisely. This is a less funny application of the concept Jay Bilzarian employs in Big Mouth to combat boredom by spreading rumors about the girls at school who won’t show him their boobs: “Let’s let it be known that as a snack, she eats tiny pieces of shit.
Yeah, your location is probably the single largest determining factor. A good percentage of my friends are smack in the center of the cohort that got most extremely fucked over by the housing bubble burst and/or job losses in the recession. Many were just graduating college or grad school when the economy tanked and…
No, neither one is binary. Biological sex is more complicated than XX = female and XY = male, or penis = male, vagina = female, etc. We’re still learning about this, but at this point it’s probably most accurate to categorize biological sex as a process.
I went to high school with a girl who was similarly situated, except fashion instead of sports. I actually worked with her at a deli one summer, and she never cashed a single paycheck. Literally wasn’t worth the effort for her. She just wanted something to do and normal human interaction with people who didn’t know…
That dress is tragic.
Yeah. I agree that the margins are fuzzy and the major social/cultural changes are the best way to mark, but there are a lot of different ways to pull out those markers, and a lot depends on where your starting point is.
I could talk about this endlessly; there are no correct answers and only competing theories.
Not to mention, sex itself isn’t binary. The fact that a comment like that could come from a scientist is so frustrating and disheartening.
Well, right, but it’s also when a 58-year-old gets laid off because his salary is (rightly) the highest in the department, but then can’t get a job anywhere else because no one wants to invest in someone who’s “probably” going to retire “soon.” (Same as how no one used to hire engaged or recently married young women…
