Absolutely! Gender bias against girls and women exists on all levels of education and same-sex schools are a way to help correct that. If I ever have a daughter I would love for her to go to all girls schools as long as possible. In retrospect, it’s an opportunity that I wish I had as well.

My shitty celeb story also involves John Krasinski at a concert! I was backstage afterwards, all the bands were from the UK, and one of them was apparently his “favorite” band (at least enough to go to the concert after the Emmys instead of ya know, after parties) . They asked for a picture with him and I was handed a…

It just happened yesterday! There’s a video somewhere of them singing together too.

OR WE COULD TALK ABOUT THIS

blurgh “insisted” not “instead”

I was behind a middle-aged woman at Chipotle who instead on calling tortillas “Mexican bread.” To make it even worse this was in Southern California - and not in a touristy area.

And currently, my opinion is supported by the medical establishment.

Luckily it’s not fucking up to you what is defined as a mental illness or not.

Thank you for the info! I do know that have a grass allergy, so that could be the source of my problems with raw tomatoes. I really should schedule and allergy test in the near future...

I have the same gagging reaction too. Like albatross_Y it’s happened since the very first time I had a raw tomato slice.

That’s the same reaction that I have! I just take it as a sign that I should avoid eating raw tomatoes entirely. Salsa’s okay, pico isn’t. I assume salsa being okay has something to do with the acidity of limes.

I don’t have any problems with nightshades overall, but raw tomatoes don’t mix with me. I don’t know if it’s an allergy (I haven’t been tested since I was 7, it’s probably just a mild insensitivity) but I’ve never been able to eat them raw. Oddly anything involving cooked tomatoes is absolutely fine. But yes, they are…

This happened a few months ago. I was sitting in the office with my male coworker, and this was his first job in the industry and he’s completely green. I am in the same position as him, but basically doing the work of a superior without the title or pay because the position didn’t exist at that place. Anyway, two old…

I am so glad that I'm not the only one who thought that.

Call The Midwife should get way more love from Jezebel for the exact same reason. Also, the executiv producers are women, it's based on books written by a woman, the majority of the cast is women, and it deals with women's issues. Just saying.

I hate House of Cards! You are not alone!

I scored a 0 and see blue/black as well.

I finished the last episode then immediately curled up into the fetal position and started sobbing. No joke.

Something similar happened to my father recently. He slipped and fell on ice and was knocked unconscious. Luckily someone had seen it happen. That person ran into the store he just left and a bunch of people got him out of the cold and called 911. It was at night and if no one had seen him and helped, he could have…
