Full disclosure: I first shot a rifle with the scouts at the tender age of 11. I was shooting bb guns at 4 or 5. I own a few today.

BOOO!!!! Skinny Ties. BOOO!!!!!

I don't think women should be dressing to impress random men, but part of dating is trying to impress the other party, so it makes sense to "play the numbers" when concrete information on actual preference is not available.

That being said, for the most part, in a dating situation I prefer skirts and dresses. However,…

I am in the grey, so I am sure this randomn aside will get no notice, but anyway:

There's a family that I know. One of the sons I've interacted with fairly regularly in the community, one daughter is my brothers age, and my dad is friends with the dad who both home school and home church (the dads an ordained minister). It was terrifying when I first heard about it. Absolutely terrified for them.

As a heterosexual male, I applaud this whole heartedly. Shopping with the stunning, normal-sized, physically enviable Ms. RPP is normally a heartbreaking experience where the entire fashion industry tries to tear her down and make her feel like a weirdo for not having the one body type that a few New Yorker's decided…

You do realize that not every Republican is a christian, not ever christian is a born again, and not every born-again eschews science (For example, the Director of the Human Genome Project is very vocal in his belief in a conventional Jesus story and claims that around 40% of scientists are religous, a fact that is…

As the ultimate humanities major, I suggest we get a little bit thicker skin. Aside from working nearly 10x as a hard as us, people who are into hard sciences are relentlessly teased and mocked well past high school, miss many of the "best years of their lives" preparing for the future, and never get to stop doing…

I have to call bull on Paul G. part of this scandal. There were a lot of digs at people's appearances that were meant to be offensive an mean (Spkr. Boehner looks like a overly tanned mom, Sen. McConnell looks like a purposely over the top character of a man dressing as woman, Roger Ailes is FAT, etc.) I'm also a…

Put this in another thread, but I wanted to move it since it seems to bear some relevance here:

Using context clues and fleet updates, there is small chance that I was an instructor or a student at one of the classes this Sailor would possibly have been sent to (I'm former Marine and did a temporary assignment alongside the Naval Unarmed Combat Training Team for that region).

The Navy, for the most part, does…

I think you may be disagreeing with a phantom argument. No one is saying that he is nice, but rather that he appears to be nice. The word is used twice in the article:

I agree that it would be appropriate to have included at least token mention that a sexual crime has occurred. Sexual violence and rape in prison is a huge issue, and it does feminism no favors to reinforce patriarchy by ignoring it.

Everyone, including men, prisoners, and even violent felons* have the right to…

It was touch and go for a few months, but eventually the merger was agreed to by all the parties. NJ politics at its finest (I am not even sure if I am being sarcastic).

I haven't been there for a few years, but I have always hated to River Dorms for both their appearance and the fact that I could never pronounce…

I believe we are getting all the MD schools, the Cancer Institute, and all the post-doctoral research facilities. The other state school will get the School of Osteopathic Medicine.

Plus the law schools are getting combined, and they already have a suspiciously strong lock on state court clerkship and prosecutor…

Why Jezebel? I just sat down and promised myself that I would do three more hours of work before my next "Real quick break to watch half and episode of Oz."

Well, I guess just 5 minutes of TV won't hurt.

I went there as well, and I absolutely loved my time there. However, I also share a lot of the concern and shame for all the negative sports (and riot) press that we have been receiving lately.

Counterpoint, Ray Rice is a genuinely nice guy, and the Big 12 pays schools up to $20 million a year to its schools.

I am somewhat that guy.

I know you don't come here for reassurance from strangers, but I want to say something.
