Well, to be fair, now 20-somethings are starting out their lives with a LOT more student loan debt. The struggle can stretch into infinity now which has to be kind of depressing.

Good one.

The most *annoying* part of you comment (besides the stupidity of thinking she actually considers flashing to be cool) is that you seem to think you are the arbiter of What's Funny and What's Not Funny. You're not, by the way.

I feel the exact same about getting my tubes tied when I have my second and final c-section!

Dude, you really have no idea what happened that night in that theater or what it was like to be there. You have no idea if/how/when he put his baby down and ran away. I think you're probably reading too much internet.

I'm not sure what to say about your abuse as a child. I'm very sorry it happened to you and I'm glad you seem to have worked through it enough to talk about it and find a perspective that makes it something you can think about without (it seems) too much heartbreak. I'd only caution you that there are many, many ways…

By the way, I got wicked stoned and forgot I already typed a response to you earlier. I like my second better (I do everything better high, obviously). One more link! This one is just hilarious: http://isthisfeminist.tumblr.com/
