They should make these available for all rodent pets who live with cats.

I live in Ohio and just wrote my representative a lengthy email about this. If you are a reader from the Buckeye State who wants to reach out but doesn't have the time to properly eviscerate this P.O.S. bill: Feel free to reach out to me and I will send you my copy.

I'm (almost) certain that nothing could make me watch this show again. I watched half of the first season, cringing through each episode because I thought I might start to like it. Why did Aaron Sorkin have to ruin stichomythia??

Is it common for the salutatorian to give a speech? At my high school only the valedictorian and the class president spoke.

Haha perfect.

That's exactly what came to mind for me, too.

You are all the best with these recommendations. Thank you so much for saving the complexion of this clueless redhead.

What conversation are you having about sex workers? The original poster was referring to women who pose for magazines...

I am also in the pasty redhead club, so I definitely appreciate the recommendation!

I'd like to tack onto this and see if anyone also has any recommendations for a high SPF facial sunscreen that will not make my skin feel sticky and waxy or make me smell like bleached coconuts. I'm also on a shoestring budget.

I'm mostly just trying to understand how, legally, this falls under the equality act when there does not seem to be a mutually agreed upon definition of pornography.

I understand the confusion. I was originally disputing your claim that people had to actively seek out stripping or prostitution to come into contact with it.

I just said it doesn't bother me. I'm not sure where you are getting the second part....

Where I live it isn't illegal for women to go topless in public. It rarely happens outside of music festivals, but it isn't the most uncommon thing to see. The sight itself doesn't really bother me, and I have learned to mostly ignore it, so I can't imagine I would ever say something. As far as the magazines go, I

I have, unfortunately, thumbed through a few (bored in a friend of a friend's college dorm room, looking for something new to read on my breaks at Barnes and Noble) and the writing is, indeed, very awful. I'm glad that you are seeing both sides of this. Supporting sex workers and lobbying for healthcare, fair wage,

In the warmer months, they definitely leave less to the imagination than some of these magazine covers.

Yeah. Kate Upton is just like an industrial coal miner kid. If she never appeared on magazine covers she was likely going to starve and die in the gutter. She couldn't just, like, get a waitressing job or go to community college or something.

Models are also usually paid to appear on magazine covers, and many non-stripping strip club owners profit from their businesses, so I don't get how the "follow the money" argument works either. Ultimately, it comes down to people splitting hairs over what is empowering to women (as if all women should be empowered by

What of the models who feel empowered by posing for photos and having them on the front cover of a major magazine? Can they not take ownership of their sexuality? Is it really so spectacularly dense to assume that there are more sides to this than "X is empowering and good" and "Y is sexist and bad"?

If you live in a lower-income area (especially in a larger city) it would be difficult to avoid prostitution altogether. I've definitely never sought out sex workers, but I see them nearly every time I leave my house at night.
