My husband and I shacked up for 12 years before we got married, and we still joke that we only did it for the Kitchenaid Mixer.

Sorry, I must have forgotten to use the sarcasm font. Did you really read that as agreeing/endorsing Melissa Etheredge?

So, next time one of my friends is diagnosed with breast cancer, I'm going to tell her about Melissa Etheridge's belief that cancer came from inside them and then they'll be cured and SO MUCH cheaper than chemo and multiple surgeries! Why isn't this part of Obamacare?

Nothing. Nothing is wrong with Adam Beach.

Don't they pull your whole uterus out with a c-section? I remember reading an article a few years ago written by a doctor describing what he saw as the beauty involved with a c-section, describing the baby-filled uterus as a ruby-colored seed pod and how the surgery represented a huge advance in maternal survival and…

My dad had five daughters and he never once made us think he would have rather that one of us was a boy. He taught us to change the oil, a flat tire and air filter and how to flush a rusty radiator. He made us cut firewood and mow lawns (acres of lawns) and put in fence posts. And, he cooked and taught us all to…

Jesus Christ, I can't believe you cannot step back and see the flaw in your logic. I will try one time to explain, then I'm done.

That's nice and all, but bras with padding allow me to walk around the office without my nipples showing through my top, and I'm more concerned with my own comfort in a bra than how it might make you feel.

"Do the cups pucker or gap? If your breasts don't fill out the cups, your bra is too large."

Let's all check back in 20 years and see how that's working out for her.

You're argument assumes that child support is paid for the benefit of the mother. It is a legal obligation to the child. No child (i.e., termination of a fetus) = no legal obligation to it.

No. A woman has a right to do what she wishes with her own pregnancy because that pregnancy is happening in her body and is putting her own health and life at risk. The woman and man who contribute to the pregnancy both have a legal duty to support any resulting child. As soon as men take on the health risk that is…

Shhh, no one let the Seattle health department see this article, or our door-to-door tamale ladies may disappear. Door-to-door tamales - it's a thing!

Ugh, the thought of being 8 months pregnant and having to wear pantyhose is making me seasick. Poor Kate.

Thank you for being a woman on the Internet, Lindy. Seriously, if I post any more of your stories on Facebook, people are going to think I've totally got a crush on you. (I do.)

Visit and have them write out the recipes and teach you how to make your favorite dishes. I've got my grandmother's cioppino recipe and her sister's ice cream recipe and they are the best, because they taste like home.

If you make him wait a half hour, he's allowed to eat one of your toes. It's cat law.

Mine too. We stake her in the yard* and she stalks the birds and squirrels like there's no tomorrow - and since the leash is noisy and not terribly long, the squirrel can sit on the lower branches of our hedge and laugh at her, with his insane squirrel laugh. The Stellar Jays just scream at her until she hides under…

"For so many years now the movies catering to men have left women bored out of their minds, i.e. Spiderman, Dark Night, the Avengers, anything to do with baseball." Fixed that for you, Feig.

Nancy Pelosi thinks to herself "damn, I picked the wrong day to leave my red suit in the cleaners. Maybe no one will notice. Plum is sorta reddish, right?"
