You've never been to Europe, have you? I lived in Europe and most of the girls where I lived dressed and made themselves up like Kim Kardashian every single day. They thought I was weird for wearing jeans and flats to get a few beers with friends, because most of them were in spandex tube dresses and 6 inch platform…

I don't understand why she would judge someone for that either. Why shouldn't a woman talk on the phone while her baby sleeps? Are you supposed to just stare lovingly at your baby 24 hours a day?

The fetus was going to die either way. A nine-week old fetus can't live without a woman's body to support it. So, if you think a fetus is a full human, it's more like a train is going toward two people, one who absolutely cannot leave the track and the other handcuffed to that person. Whatever you do, the one who…

And they didn't even preserve the life of the fetus, because the fetus living was not a possible outcome of any of the options available. Either she had the possibility of living if the fetus died or they both died. They just wanted to mother to die too if the fetus had to die. She should throw herself on the funeral…

I don't get it. How could he like Rage Against the Machine? It's not like they're a mostly apolitical band with a handful a political songs. Basically every single one of their songs, hell even their name, is about how much they want to overthrow people exactly like Paul Ryan. It's not like Bruce Springsteen where you…

I would totally wear false lashes every single day if it wouldn't make me look so over the top, but I have done lashes just like that for special occasions. Just buy some drugstore lashes (like $3-5) and some eyelash glue. Always use tweezers to apply them and trim them if you need to (at an angle). Make sure you have…

You would make a terrible lesbian, I can tell you that!

ZhiBaChu is right; you must have missed a lot of civics classes. The US is not a pure democracy. We're a Constitutional Democracy in which the majority may not oppress or withhold rights from minorities. Try learning a thing or two about your government.

That so funny, because I had the exact opposite situation. I went to the doctor at my college and she insisted that the abdominal pain I had was caused by an std, even though I told her it was extremely unlikely (at that time I had only had one sexual partner in my life, who was a woman who had been std tested when we…

If you're from the US, then yes, marriage is a basic civil right. Ever heard of Loving v. Virginia? The Supreme Court ruled that marriage is a basic civil right.

Who said not being a bigot means never judging anyone ever for anything? I sure as hell judge racists, homophobes, sexists, anti-Semites, and assholes in general. As we all should. When a racist person says that they think black people are all criminals and should be enslaved again, you're totally okay with that…

As a lesbian, I'm pretty lucky in that my straight guy friends know for a fact that I'm not secretly pining away for them. I think it allows me to have some pretty awesome friendships with guys, because we both know there is zero sexual tension and there never will be.

I hadn't heard of the story before, but if I had, I would have taken the accusations with a grain of salt. Her whole denial, however, was so bizarre that it makes it seem like it's true. If someone said "have you slept with so-and-so?" and you hadn't, wouldn't you more likely to respond along the lines of "No, I…

I absolutely believe that all your ideas about feminism are negative, but I know for a fact that there are endless ways you can address your ignorance. There are literally millions of books, articles, workshops, experts, blog posts, brochures, and organizations dedicated feminism and teaching people about feminism.…

Yes, they are a business trying to make money, but as a queer consumer, I'm still happy to have them trying to appeal to me. Very few businesses do. When a business does this, it means they are considering the needs and wants of more than just straight, white, christian audience. Everyone needs to buy greeting cards…

With all their billions, you would think they could build a place that didn't look so much like giant version of a tacky banquet hall in South Jersey.

I don't think confidence is much related. I have an extremely confident walk and I know how to handle myself, but rarely a day goes by when I'm not cat-called or street harassed. When I was a teenager and less confident, I was grabbed a number of times, which hasn't happened in years, but, if anything, the street…

The comments on here make me want to cry. I used to come to Jezebel to escape this shit.

Thank you kindly :)

I agree with you to an extent, but the difference is that relationships are something that are generally public while medical procedures are not. So, while both being gay and having an abortion are both things people can choose to keep private, being closeted about being gay means hiding something that people are…
