OK, I get the point about “lifestyle childhoods” but even without that it’s so damn hard and I think it’s kind of a pot shot to criticize it. My husband and I both work full time, and my MIL watches our 2 year old while 6 year old goes to public school and after school care there. 6yo is enrolled in swimming one…

I was such a weird little germaphobic kid I once shouted, “is this Christmas or a herpes convention?”
That’s such bullshit. But I think typical for the older generation of men. My dad thought it was ridiculous that I expected my husband to take 2 weeks off and help with night feedings.
By that rationale, there’s nothing shameful about American police officers’ marked tendency to murder unarmed black people, because the majority of the country isn’t protesting about it.
I mean it’s ONE banana, Michael. What could it cost, ten dollars?
As a trans woman, I’m deeply confused by this. Playing a crossdressing man is probably second only to detransitioning on my list of things I would not want to do. And that’s not even getting into the issue of ignorant cis people confusing trans women with crossdressing dudes to begin with.
Obligatory women’s health nurse post.
And remember, you absolutely must have your infant color-coded at all times no matter what, so that complete strangers can tell what their genitalia looks like and can therefore get in on the sexist socialization too!
Also, having a special time out chair gives the kids the attention they want for acting out. Now, they get to sit in the special colorful chair!
I have spoken at a large conference with my baby in a wrap. He slept most of the morning and you wouldn’t have known he was there except for all the people saying how lovely it was having him there.
That is a very attractive pig, though. I would be flattered!
The reason the kids were rapt with joy is that it’s very alienating, lonely, and stressful to be a little kid who can’t eat what the other kids eat. This article is shitty, mean, and weirdly unnecessary.
First of all, this woman doesn’t understand her own damn religion, because by their own standards, the Pope is going straight to hell for being and idolater, so.
It’s almost like their race is relevant to their daily lives, or it somehow influences their subjective experiences! I mean GEEZ, kinda boring for us Default Americans who can go our entire lives without needing to consider how our skin color might factor into things like hailing cabs or encountering the police! They…
I think it’s weird as fuck, but her parents liked it, and it sounds like their mutual friends liked it? So ... most of the people she was closest with thought it was a nice gesture.
Maybe all of us cynical folks should just close our mouths and quietly step back?
There is literally nothing a woman can do and not be judged while pregnant.
She’s a plain old white person (with great hair).
It’s not martyrdom for this nurse. It’s the absolute clear example of devaluing the critical role my profession plays.
So this is like the British version of desnudas.
