As a religious person who supports reproductive rights...

also, 2nd graders should know about vaginas but they really don't need to know how to "please" them. Nor do they need to know the explicit details of what adult vaginas look like.

I agree and I'm as tired of that shit as the next person. I just don't think the way to deal with them is to bombard them with messages like this:

I actually know a lot of deeply religious people who support reproductive rights and struggle with reconciling their faith and their political/social beliefs. I think they are absolutely capable of intelligent discourse and have witnessed it many times.

I don't even necessarily think second grade is too early for it, but "SURPRISE YOU SHOULD TALK ABOUT VAGINAS NOW" really isn't the best way to handle that at all. That's some shit you need to think about how to approach beforehand, as a teacher.

I always took "crush" in this context to mean to nail it or get it done such as "Man, he crushed that ball out of the park"

My mother insisted on referring to vaginas as "cookie jars" throughout my childhood. Let me just tell you the number of jokes that inspired among my friends when we were teenagers and lost our virginities! Thankfully, my grandmother was all no nonsense about it and was like "You have a vagina, boys have penises, and…

THIS. This all day long.

I'd tell them your daughter was traumatized by the thought that her vulva was for people to step on.

Poor Johnny.

Apparently when I was small, I got confused and thought penis meant your general reproductive area (or front bum as I named it...because I was an odd child). Anyway, I announced to restaurant once: "I've got a penis, mummy's got a penis, and daddy's got a penis with a nose on it!" >.> So at least your kid knows you…

We're potty training right now and it just seems easier to use the proper terms. For some reason, he insists on calling a vagina a 'tile', but is really good at recognizing penises and saying penis over and over again in public. "That man has a penis, that mommy has a tile and boobs!"

We've always used the proper terms with our kiddo (I'm a biologist, I'm not going to call it a wee-wee or a hoo-haa or whatever). She was then told by other kids she was saying "bad words." Her teacher started to tell her not to say those and she proudly said "My mommy says those are the right words and not to use…

Yeah, yeah. But can't he ... like, dance while he's being all fabulous?

Now I'm not defending the asshole but the drinking age thing is one small thing that makes sense socially and culturally. There is some pros and cons to that.

What I don't quite get is why they're all up in arms over the website that reported it. She got kicked out of her sorority for hazing. Fact. Jezebel reported this fact.

Typical HuffulePuff Hat

I've been hearing about this shit for two days now thanks to my girlfriend, who is goddamned obsessed. She also claims that for some reason, the author refers to Gryffindors or Slytherins as "Gryffindor Hats" and "Slytherin Hats" which bothers me WAY more than it has any right to, like a persistent nail dragging…
