Friends, Schmends.
Just found out a friend of mine and one of my husband's close Army buddies just got his leg blown off in Afghanistan. He's not yet in stable condition that we know of. Please send good thoughts/prayers/whatever-you-do to him, his wife, and two young kids.
Oh... I always thought people said their sandwiches were edible...
Why would he be specific and helpful when he can be general and sexist? It's not like he's a trained psychologist...oh...wait...
My Father is the biggest drama-seeking stress-creator I know and my brother comes in a very close second. Obviously this guy grew up in a different kind of household and feels the need to project his experience onto every woman alive.
Everyone wants a safe, stress-free place to unwind. What he's implying is that women infringe on that.
UGH change "men" with "everyone" for the first paragraph. No one wants a shitty relationshis with screaming and crying and throwing plates against the wall. Likewise, no wants to pretend they are something they are not. Women need to recharge too. *sigh*
Minus the whole "men don't want to multitask" and "don't want to speak in the language of feelings" this is basically what I imagine every normal human being wants at the end of the day. That and a strong cocktail.
The thing is that this is true about what a lot of men want if they are working really demanding jobs. But it's also what women want if they are working really demanding jobs.
Yeah, but then men spout off "BUT WE'RE NOT LIVING IN INDIA, SO THIS ISN'T PROOF!!!!"
So let me get this straight...the official procedure for addressing a sexual assault is...another sexual assault? WTF.
This is horrifying. The only light I can find is that one man put being a father and seeking justice for his baby girl above money. It's sad that that sentence even has a place in this world, and worse that my cynical mind wondered if he had an ulterior motive. I'm going to make a conscious decision to believe he is…
It's not about sexual attraction, it's about a hole. Because that's all that women are in a patriarchal society. :(
My favorite protest is that of other 5 year old girls, demanding authorities take swift and strict action against the accused.
If your employer wanted to check up on your personal habits, couldn't they just mine your Twitter feed or whatever?
Rallies in defense of the accused in 3, 2, 1...
The whole rape as a reproductive strategy really pisses my off. It's like, fuck you and your poor understanding of biology as an excuse to rape.
I didn't get morning sickness or a missed period until I was almost to the third month. When I finally went to a clinic I was 4 and a half months and I found out it was twins. So, I told my boyfriend. I told my mom. She was rather shocked and asked me to call back. When I talked to my Mom the next day she told me…
Hey Jezzie Mamas, my close friend is having a baby in about 5 weeks and I'm wondering if you guys have any advice for ways to help out a new mom? We are close, but she is one of my boyfriend's best friends and I have yet to hang out with her alone (so, not besties...yet).
