IS ANYONE HERE OR DOES ANYONE KNOW A JEWISH GIRL WHO READS JEZEBEL?! (and can someone please approve my comment ASAP 'cause if the girl in question exists I hope she reads this)

"...marketing fantasy to everyone and attaching some kind of social worth to owning it, that you really can't blame anyone for falling into it..."

This question makes me angry:

Ditto. Cosmetics, mostly, which seems to draw a special brand of ire, even from people who spend 30 bucks on drinks each Saturday night, or my fellow nerds who drop at least 150 a month on toys, comics and graphic novels. People love judging anything seen as feminine and frivolous, though many of them drop just as…

Hmmm... making it impossible for the guest to attend is a strategy of culling your guest list, but a more genteel and, I'd venture to say, decent, option is to be an adult and trim your list so as it matches exactly both your preferences and your budget.

It's a perfectly fair argument that anyone who isn't in Liberia, dying alone in agony from Ebola on a hospital's tile floor should shut the fuck up. It's a good thing to keep in the back of your mind to keep your life in perspective, and to perhaps spur you to improve the world so everyone has better choices.

Well, I think it's not necessarily a bad thing if meat is more expensive than it has been. I don't think it's necessarily a good thing if chicken is 90¢/lb, particularly for the farmer who's trying to make a halfway-decent living. (On the other hand, though, people should be able to afford good, nourishing food that's…

They gave her one 'traditional' boys name and one 'traditional' girls name. What the F is the problem here? That the child has been given options while it is still young enough to not know it might want them? Why is everyone so protective of kids bucking traditional gender roles when they get old enough to get bullied…

And slowly we begin to realise that Taco Hell and KFC are one and the same.

Oh come on, don't act like bread soaked in bacon grease wouldn't be amazing (in moderation).

They need to have some awkward black girls like me on there helping white women with lessons like:

I was going to post something, but it would have been an exact repeat of your post. My parents had mine pierced at 16 months. Incredibly young, and when they told me about that, I wasn't really pleased but when I tried to get a second hole in my teen years, it got infected and grew up after I stopped putting earrings…

What kind of fucked world do we live in that we have to worry so much about our career track that we're afraid to put the needs of our family first? I don't have kids and don't want them, and even I am bothered by this mindset. Work shouldn't be so important, unless someone is working on the cure for cancer.

Easy solution: don't wear thongs.

Why are you here? Don't you have better things to do, like staring at women's feet and evaluating whether they look amazing or high-maintenance and absurd? Be normal.

Hey, thanks for turning this into wholesale victim-blaming rather than isolated pearl-clutching/concern-trolling! Much more fun that way.

If we're going to go there with leaving kids in cars, then I think it is vastly more important to write a story about "don't do it, don't do it, don't do it" with even owning a gun if you are the parent of a child. An average of 37 children per year die left in cars. Over 3,000 children per year die because of a…
