That is a very good point.

That website is a good source of information: http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/Cir…. I agree that the list of reasons documented for health benefits for vaccines do greatly outweigh ones for circumcision. But I was speaking to the fact that there are health benefits (no matter how many) tied to an irreversible act to…

Thank you for the first part of your answer. Personally I feel it does provide health benefits outside of the 'take a bath carefully' school of thought and a quick google search can back that up, as well as many comments to this post. I certainly understand a parents' taking that information and making an informed…

One thing I always wondered - for parents against circumcision based on it being an irreversable choice, are you pro-vaccines? In both cases there have been documented medical benefits to children, both come with small risks, and both, once done, cannot be reversed from their bodies. Yet parents often feel the need…

I agree. There are rational arguments to be made for either decision but calling it mutilation is wrong and kind of offensive.

It seems so odd to me that this issue comes up so much more on mom/women's sites than on men sites (has this ever been discussed on Gawker? I've remembered reading posts on circumcision multiple times on Jezebel). It's like that picture of only male politicians discussing women's health in DC and male politicians…

So, talking about a black man marginalizing a black woman should be discussed. Talking about a feminist website run by a white woman paying a white man who marginalized women, black and white and all races, should not be discussed. Got it.

You get it, Aubrey O'Day. Not everyone gets it, but you do. Make sure you tell everyone too.

I remember when I was in college I babysat for a family - parents and young son were white, the preteen daughter was Indian. And I don't know why but I automatically assumed the daughter was the mother's biological child from a previous relationship. They had the same body type and similar mannerisms to a degree but…

Women's issues rarely get as much coverage as men's so I understand framing breast cancer as a women's issue since women get it so much more often but it's also because of this that many men don't realize they can get breast cancer and rarely think to check themselves. Even their doctors often don't check men for…

If it's discounted so deeply that she's taking a loss by selling it, then it's okay dokay.

I think Grey's Anatomy could never have happened, and this still would be the result of his Can't Buy Me Love fame.

Overall it looks great especially for someone into vintage items. Someone else might think differently but I liked the photos of items with no background. I thought when the items were photographed on top of something it was distracting and I didn't look at the item for long. But that's about it for criticism.

Oh, sorry you have to deal with a break-up and move at the same time! Is it possible you can crash at a friend's place if you can't find something by the time the month is up? I know it's not ideal, but maybe one of your friends could use extra money just by renting their livingroom/couch until you figure out what…

Maybe it's one of those things you don't need to think too hard about. If you are enjoying the position, just having an attitude that you enjoy being there and are confidant in what you're doing and approachable to the cheerleaders if they have any questions or suggestions or issues, then you'll probably forge good…

"It'll get better." Yeah yeah, but sometimes it doesn't and even if it does, that doesn't help me NOW.

I remember having the Team Madonna vs. Team Cyndi Lauper discussions (before we knew to call them 'teams') and being one of the few girls to be Team Cyndi. Nothing against Madonna because she's impressive all on her own but being Team Cyndi just felt like a subtle yet colorful act of punkish aggression.

I like dogs. Most of them at least. And dog people mostly seem swell. But even on snowy days and 100+ degree days and storm days and end of the world days you still need to take them outside on walks and to pee and so I say...here, kitty kitty.

He was married to Emma Thompson but divorced after he had an affair (and then became a couple with) Helena Bonham Carter starting with their Frankenstein movie. Not that it upset me at all enough to retain this information in my head forever and ever.

Is it bad that I'm thinking how yummy the icing looks?
