I don't really get the outrage. Men get less physically attractive as they age, too. There's no denying it. But women are looking at other things - stability, maturity, compatibility, etc. - and face an enormous stigma as a desperate, pathetic cougar if they state a preference for much younger men, whereas a…

This plus nanomachines capable of finding and destroying cancerous cells. The longer everyone lives, the more likely everyone will get cancer eventually.

That's... not really even a lot of money. And his business's account, not his.

Eh, pestering for period sex might get tiresome, but I'd take that over a manbaby cringing at the mere thought of blood and insisting on unreciprocated blowjobs for a week any day of the month.

Yeah no regrets either. I'm not really even sure what it is that I'm supposed to regret. Like you, I was a late bloomer, and once I finally got laid (at 22, lol) I was more than mature enough to be sure I was sober, on the pill, he was wearing a condom, I knew how to be tested for STDs, where and how to get an…

Damn. Well, that's wasteful.

This doesn't really surprise me that much. For better or worse, things like Harry Potter and Game of Thrones and The Hunger Games have gotten more young people to read on a regular basis than I ever saw in my 20s.

I see your point, and maybe I was a little harsher than I should have been, but this whole comment section has been getting me down. It's all "your body, your choice" ... until someone makes a choice other people disapprove of and then it's a landslide of supposed feminists lining up to shame, mock, belittle her. So I…

Okay, sorry to hear your mom works 365 days a year and can't call in sick, take vacation days, or look forward to weekends off. She might want to look for a better job.

Uh but you, from your comment, also have a husband. When I want to sleep in until 10 on the weekend, I can get my husband to look after the kids. Which you can too.

135 is not enough

I like how people cry about killstreaks like the helicopter taking no skill to get kills but somehow forget that by definition to get a "killstreak" in the first place you had to get kills. And that they too can get the helicopter if they're skilled enough to get a killstreak so that it's all even. The dissonance…

Huh. We didn't do the fur trade until junior high, and First Nations/residential schools (+ treatment of Chinese immigrant works when building the CPR, the Komagata-maru incident, relocation of the Inuit to bolster arctic sovereignty, etc.) were all covered in high school. I remember my dad being surprised because…

When/what province were you educated in? I graduated high school in BC in 2000 and we did quite a bit on the First Nations (including the residential schools) in Social Studies in the '90s.

Ugh, this hits close to home. My mother was essentially the sole caregiver to her mother during her last year of life, and it drove my mom into poor health and depression (she was working full time during all of this, no less) for years afterwards. Her three brothers never lifted a finger. Then had the audacity to…

Good god, if there wasn't a hack for this and I'd had it during my childhood I would have thrown my phone in the trash, bought my own prepaid with my paper route money, and not given my mother the new number the very first (and only) time she locked it -_-

What an intelligent and reasoned rebuttal.

You said it better than I could. I'm left trying to discern whether the complete misunderstanding of the meaning of "critical theory/(Marxist, feminist, etc.) critique" in this context was willful or simply from a position of ignorance about how those terms are used in comparison to the common "critical thinking",…

In sum:

Er.. From your article:
