maybe for boys sex ed should include an individual surprise encounter in which each teenage boy is surprised in an empty classroom and backed against the wall by someone like darryl yoerkie or (the infinitely nicer) stallone or schwarzenegger. backed against the wall and then into a corner. "suck my dick,"…

The first time I received a paper back from my British Uni tutor I nearly cried since it had a big 60 on the front. then one of the other guys on the rowing team explained it to me and I felt ecstatic.

And I believe a significant percentage of the claims classed as "false" constitute instances where the perpetrator was misidentified, not where the woman lied about being raped, although I don't have the citation for that.

This was seriously the only response this asshat deserved. Also, Dean Winchester is never not hot.

What gets me worked up is the people who are posting that in my Facebook circles are the same bitches who say "be thankful you're only a step-mother. Imagine what us real mothers go through!" Oh, fuck your vagina with a jackhammer. I raised my step-kids because their "real" mother couldn't do it so back your fucktruck…

I hate this stupid thing. Someone please tell me where to get a house elf that will clean, cook, and do laundry, that is reserved for childless people.

Is sex with multiple people at the same time as common as alleged rapists want me to think it is? I wouldn't normally question someone who says they were raped anyway, but if there is more than one guy present, it seems MUCH more likely that it was rape rather than consensual sex. Does this make me a pilgrim? Are…

Damn, he's hitting all the notes of the MRA mating call, isn't he? "She changed her mind later" is so classic. What's NOT classic is that he was found guilty by the school—-how often does that happen? The fact that the suit was dismissed with prejudice means it can't be re-filed for a variety of reasons.

Right, this is one of those things that people aren't talking about: stress has been shown to have clear, measurable effects on a fetus. But we freak out about a glass a wine a week or the occassional weed based on faulty studies. I'd like some actual, measurable and non freaked-out discussion about this topic, urg.

Elevated cortisol during pregnancy (the hormone linked to mental and emotional stress) is bad for the baby, and is in fact being studied as a contributing cause of autism. That fucked me right up, while pregnant, let me tell you. You're stressed? Can't have alcohol, pot, or sedatives because that'll fry the baby. But…

Nah, I'm good. I've come to terms with the fact I'm an old spinster and will die alone.

Ehh. I've tried the "finding a boyfriend online" approach and I'm over it. I don't feel like looking. I just want to meet someone randomly and if I happen to like them, I'll try to pursue them. Am I foolish for that?

Good point on the timing. I suffer from thinking that the 90s were ten years ago anyway!

PIZ??? PIZ??? Are you kidding me? PIZ??

My feelings exactly, sure give her someone other than Logan, but why Piz? He is literally the worst- all we see of him doing in the trailer is him calling Veronica a "creature" and trying to guilt-trip her into coming back to him (maybe because he knows that she's too god for him?). Him and Logan from Gilmore Girls…

TEAM LOGAN, BETCHES.

I have to make a confession. Until the homophobia and racism debacle, I thought Duck Dynasty was a reference to Scrooge McDuck. Seriously. I thought it was like a hipster thing to be ironically into it or something.

This seems to be a common theme, people trying to gain empathy for a disadvantaged group by literally putting themselves in their shoes. Being poor for a day, dressing up in a fat suit, disguising yourself as a different ethnicity, wearing blindfolds, going around in a wheelchair, etc.

I think that's the point a lot of the people most vociferously defending DiFranco missed- it wasn't so much just that this was a plantation, but that it was a plantation apparently notorious for white-washing and downplaying it's own heritage. A lot of commentators reported going to plantations that did give their…

I appreciate the follow up on this Jez. I thought maybe she'd make another statement, and I am glad that she's trying to dig deeper, take responsibility and grow from it. I too felt her first letter really missed the mark. I am an admitted eternal optimist (and yes I realize this isn't always productive), and I do…
