I understand your point. My only argument would be that he actually started the answer by talking about a male superhero sewing. I mean he came up with (or maybe it is canon) that this guy superhero was sewing his own clothes. I think that image would stick more with a kid than the use of the words…

Love it!

I understand your point of view. As far as the word "all" I more meant Jez readers rather than society as a whole. I just hope you are annoyed because you believe Andrew implied women are inherently delicate and not me because I have being trying very hard to in no way imply that. I think a lot of sewing is deemed…

I never said anything about women having tiny fingers, at all. I said that delicate actions are deemed feminine by the definition of femininity and by society. There is a point to be made that if delicate work is happening on a machine rather than cloth, the action will suddenly become masculine. I mean, we could…

This. He said it was feminine. He didn't say woman-like. We all know feminine/masculine are social constructs and that sewing is deemed feminine. That doesn't mean it's an insult!!!!!!!!!!!!! He didn't say Superman had to sew his garment in private for fear of people questioning his manhood. Now, in reality …

This. He said it was feminine. He didn't say Superman had to sew his garment in private for fear of people questioning his manhood. Now, in reality sewing is just a skill so I suppose it is neither masculine or feminine. If it HAD to be qualified as one or the other I would say yes it is feminine because a lot of…

Yeah. My whole family knows the story now. I wasn't super close to her so I didn't know the ends and outs of her marriage, but it turned out she was sure he was cheating and was happy/sad to have proof. They divorced like 3 months later and they were not even married 2 years. She feels she mostly dodged a bullet. …

Your story is incredible. It makes me wonder what hold he had over your aunt. With children I would think her priorities would be in a better place. Was she trying to "save" him? Did she leave her husband for him and was just determined to prove it was the right thing to do? How did the divorced uncle turn out? …

Yeah, not proud of this, but when I first heard about Ashely Madison I thought it was horrible and set up a fake account with fake email so cheaters might waste time and money contacting me. However, I would go on it sometimes to just laugh at the messages with my friends (I was about 19 and in college). Anyway,…

It is like they can only take one step forward if they simultaneously take two steps back.

I don't have a great story since I have rarely met any celebrities that weren't local. However, I did go to a tennis tournament in which Andy Roddick was competing (I was madly in love with him). He was the first celebrity I has ever seen in person and as I was walking up to the stadium, I saw his at the baseline…

Ok, sorry, I get it now. If this passes with the definition of a person defined as starting at conception, they can say use it as a precedent. Thank you. I mean, I now feel worse reading this, but at least I understand.

I am confused: How does a law saying a pregnant woman can stand her ground mean that abortion will be made illegal? Clearly there is a connection I am missing.

Is Jimmy Fallon better now? I use to watch him on Late Late night and he was good with the games and gags but I felt like he couldn't interview to save his life. I was SHOCKED we he got the late night gig, but I figured it is because he is 100% noncontroversial like Leno.

I had a huge crush on an actor and then met him in real life. I actually didn't enjoy the experience too much. I was just so nervous, and facing them made me realize how important they were to me and how meaningless I was to them. I was 17 and older now, but I still think it is better not to meet them. LOL. Then,…

Except it wasn't a compromise. She makes it very clear it was him telling her what to do. As an artist, making music videos, if the song is about love/sex/relationships, that might have to be performed. Unless you think married actors doing sex scenes in movies is disrespectful to their spouse, the same should…

Seriously. Her "...and you know, I like that he is domineering it means that he REALLY loves me" is classic rationalization/justification for bad behavior.

I don't think it is shade. No one is saying he should have tried to make sure Americans understood what he is saying. It is just joking around. I think most people are aware that Brits and Americans use different words and references. This one statement happened to have a lot of those differences.

I thought I remember reading that Missy Franklin, because she wanted to keep her NCAA eligibility, couldn't take the prize money but there was $100,000+ for her in "compensation" that she was allowed to keep. 'Maybe' that is the same for some of the US athletes.
