Yes, yes I would. I would laugh my ass off sitting next to my Chinese, Indian, Japanese etc friends who are also smart and reasonable enough to take a fucking joke.

How can a baby be allergic to breastmilk? I'm not being sarcastic it just seems like really really strange, could she have other women's breastmilk or none at all? I am intrigued.

This is why I will be happily sending my children to Catholic school. My parents are Jewish and I am an athiest but I there are few things in life I am more thankful for than the discipline of Catholic elementary school. Everyone I know from my Catholic school is a decent, respectable human being, and few are all that

Me too! My boyfriend is like a totally different person when hungry so it was necessary to have an expression to explain to my friends that there really isn't anything wrong, he is just hangry.

"Girl I'm gonna finger bang bang you into the night". Damn it, now its stuck in my head too.

they for sure are though, they are the ones "men's rights activists" point to when trying to discredit feminism. They really do give rise to terms such as "feminazi" and the idea that feminists are men-haters. Which does more than anything else to harm the cause of feminism, which needs both women and men to succeed.

This comment is awful perfection. +1

He sounds like a keeper, even if it means sometimes listening to rants. At least he can think for himself in an industry that is all about following who ever seems coolest. Added bonus points for thinking feminist thoughts.

All of this. Your right to decide ends where my body begins. Discord88, I think we are kindred spirits. I was going to have to type this all out and then I saw you had already gone and done the work for me.

This. I agree with you completely, especially as someone who has a very homebound life where the flu is more likely to be brought in by my nurse boyfriend then me (an online student). I've never gotten a flu shot, and I've never gotten the flu. Don't fix it if it ain't broken.

My body, my choice. Oh, wait, is that not applicable here?

It isn't, and everyone hating on you clearly hasn't thought out their position.

Ugh, your baby isn't my problem, but my body, which is the carrier of my future baby, is my problem. I don't make you stick chemicals into your veins so please step away from mine.

This is SO awesome!

This whole time I just keep thinking how bad the friend/fiance must be feeling, they were engaged to be married in just a few months, being subjected to seeing/hearing the woman you love being brutalized is unfathomably horrible.

yes, especially if she were seven years older and he was a middle schooler.

The point of travelling is sometimes to be uncomfortable. It isn't pleasant to rock climb, but you better believe people are damn proud when they get to the top. Life isn't comfortable, if you want to do something worthwhile, it probably won't be comfortable the whole time. Maybe when you travel you will learn how

I am not saying that the only problem is colonialism, I am saying the original poster's point that it is a religious problem is untrue. That doesn't mean I discount widespread misogyny or any of the other problems in the situation, I am just pointing out that putting the blame on religions does those religions and

It is certainly not a religious problem. It is the lingering cultural impact of the British invasion skewing Hindu, Jain, Sikh (and to a lesser extent Islamic) practices to conform to their (the British) Western Patriarichal ideologies. India has a great dichotomy between their religious views of women as goddesses
