There are plenty of women who do not care about this issue at all (I am a woman, so I know because we talk about this shit a lot). I am not sure how old you are, but I think it's also the kind of thing that matters less and less as you move out of your 20s and into your 30s. That said, even in my teens, some of my…

They way abusers justify this shit never ceases to amaze me. I was in an abusive relationship for years. Mostly emotional, but some physical as well. Once, they guy put his hands on my neck but then backed off. Years later, I called him out on it and he threw a fit—he was so offended that I would dare accuse him of…

Thank you! I love celeb gossip as much (okay, maybe more) than the average person, but this coverage has really crossed a line. It just seems mean spirited at this point. And not even in an exciting way. Like a list of her twitter insults that you have already chronicled obsessively? Kind of a snooze.

Oh jeeeez. That does not look good is not a value judgement, it's an aesthetic comment. What I mean is, she is saying she doesn't like the way something looks, but she is not passing personal judgement on the people wearing the clothes. Who am I to pass judgement on what is acceptable as pants? Are you freaking…

Amen. In my opinion, she isn't making a value judgement on the people wearing the shorts, she is just like "That does not look good!" And then she is pretty self-depreciating about the whole thing anyway. And yes, agreed, leggings as pants are unacceptable and if it is antifeminist to say that then I guess I that's…

Yes, Freya is the best! I used to just by the real cheapie bras but decided to invest in a better one and am so glad I did. I've had a few Freyas for like 8 months and they are going strong.

Cruises are great if you are elderly and/or lazy. Otherwise, I feel like they are the most frustrating vacations ever. My parents were in the travel industry, so I grew up going on free cruises. Granted, that was TOTALLY RAD because even a frustrating free vacation beats NO vacation. And sure, cruise ships are often…

I am not trying to be a bitch, but then why do it? Why does everyone have this compulsion to diagnose the mental health issues of celebrities? I actually am a mental health professional and I have no idea what's wrong with her because I have never met her. It could be schizophrenia, it could be bipolar disorder, it…

You don't even understand frump until you live in Seattle. We have collectively given up. We're damp all the time, why bother? I was born and raised in NYC and recently went for a visit and realized I had crossed over when I went out with my friends and they were all cute and I was rocking my hoodie, beat up shoes and…

I like to think that the poor gay guys are just doing this for camp value. There are a few scenes where their facial expressions seem to say "LOOK AT HOW RIDICULOUS THIS IS!!!"

Aww, I used to live with a roommate with the cutest pit. She looked kind of intimidating but was a big scaredy dog. Like, after 4th of July fireworks she hid under the bed for almost a whole week (she'd come out to eat and for walks and stuff), only she couldn't fully fit because she was a pretty big dog, so she'd…

I am quick to call out sexism, but in this case I totally agree with you. I mean, the guy has an insensitive kind of tone, but I feel like he would write the same way about men. It does seem like he is trying to make a point about cardio not being an efficient method of weight loss. As a fat woman who has always…

I agree. I have short curly hair, and when curly hair starts to grow out it can be a disaster. I pay about $78.00 for my hair cuts for just the reason you stated—the grow out has been so much better. It sometimes looks cuter than a fresh cut. Plus my stylist offers free trims within 4 weeks of a cut, so it's like two…

Wow, she is amazing. Such a big personality. Now I can't stop watching all of her videos.

This shit really mystifies me. I am a fat woman with cute clothes. I am stopped regularly by thin young women who say to me "Wow! I love your dress! Where did you get that?" So it seems that plenty of thin women would still buy clothes that a fat person might purchase as well. I have never been thin, but are some thin…

Generational labels make me ragey. So I am Gen X because I was born in 1980. So, generationally speaking, my experience is more like someone born in 1970 than 1983? That doesn't even make sense. It's all so arbitrary and just creates these meaningless generalizations.

I totally agree. Toward the end I was just like "YOU ARE AN AWFUL PERSON AND A TERRIBLE MOTHER!" I just couldn't do it anymore. Also, it was weird to me how the whole show revolved around everyone being in love/lust with Nancy. I mean, Mary Louise Parker is definitely a really attractive woman, but all of the male…

Sidenote: my boyfriend and I wanted to go see something really dumb and brainless, so we went to see Pain and Gain. I knew it would be crappy but was kind of looking forward to it (I have an inexplicable love for the Rock and sometimes big Hollywood movies are fun), but it was so beyond terrible. In the first 20…

This is so interesting to me. I grew up in NYC and started taking the public bus to school alone when I was about 8. My family never had a car and I hadn't even touched the steering wheel of a car until I was 18; I didn't learn to drive until I was 28! Driving is still so terrifying for me, but now that I live in…

THANK YOU! That just made me so freaking mad.
