*high-fives for members of the Tadashi wedding dress club*

Loved the part about female friendships. I'm still friends with a childhood friend (from the age of 7 and we are both pushing 50 now) even though we have both moved all over the US, we always stayed friends. We ended up in the same city and now see each other all the time. I feel like she gets me in a way no one

They don't ask men because they assume the wives and girlfriends are doing all of the work to help balance. They don't assume the reverse (or the hiring of help, for single women...or hell, couples do that, too) for boyfriends and husbands. It's sexist shit from all angles.

I won't touch the gist of your remark, because my fellow Jezzies have admirably handled that, but in regards to this:

"I'm going to say ridiculously offensive things and suggest that we punish women for exercising their legal rights, but don't be mean to me. I am clearly trying to have a serious conversation. About punishing women for exercising their legal rights."

Let the hate fest begin!

"Cause let's face it. We're killing small babies here"

Well, I've had an abortion, a nice, safe, legal one, and I was traumatized by the pregnancy itself. The abortion saved my sanity. I have never had a blink of a regret. Because, much like your suggestion, it would have been nice if I'd be required to take educational classes on fetal development and what actually

That's your opinion. Period. Not everyone sees a fetus as a "small baby" - and there are those of us who believe women are more than brood mares. My life - what I have done with it so far - should not be derailed because of my biology. And you will never convince me otherwise. Men can walk away from creating a

Howdy, I live in Texas and had an abortion back in November of 2012. First off, I felt and still feel that having that abortion was the best decision for myself and the fetus. I have no remorse because it was done in a humane manner for the fetus and safely/legally for myself. I remember that once it was over...I felt

Why are you advocating punitive measures for people who have done nothing wrong? Abortion is a consequence. Even for those who are firmly pro-choice and are certain of their decision, it's still a difficult event to face. No one would rather have an abortion than not be pregnant.

Cause let's face it. We're killing small babies here.

The reason they are getting an abortion is that they know a baby will come out of them eventually if they do not. Therefore, this education is irrelevant. They know what is growing inside them and the reason for an abortion is to stop that. Your proposal only makes sense to someone who is already pro-life.

How about no. Consequences for legal acts doesn't even make sense. Why should someone be punished for doing something legal? Mandatory classes + forced therapy + community service.. sounds an like what a lot of people are sentenced to do after they commit crimes.
Also, not everyone who has an abortion is traumatized.

Guess what? I had a nice safe legal abortion and I was not traumatized in any way and I know many other people who feel the same. But I would never claim that some people are not traumatized, because some are. However, you are claiming that everyone is traumatized and that is not true. As with all life

No. Just no. Please tell me why women need to feel guilty for having an abortion? There is no reason beyond wanting to force a certain set of ideals on women. What about the fathers? Do they have to serve the community? What about women who get abortions for medical reasons or because of incest or rape? Who gets to

That is one adorable sibling duo! Pretty kids!

Dear adorable children, stop making me think: "maybe I want children.."

Joey looks GOOD with that gray hair.

If it had been up to me, the amazing Pablo Morais would have been among these fine looking men.
