In my experience, men don’t believe that they’re gossiping. Women gossip, which is a petty and trivial activity. Men discuss things, which has weight and importance.

I think the primary issue is that what men talk about is “important” while what women talk about is “frivolous” so even when women are talking about life or death scenarios (such as abusers), it’s framed as light, puffy, gossip about romance, because ladies love love but are also conniving backstabbers. It’s all a…

I did one year of a law degree ( read: vastly more qualified than anyone Trumplestiltskin would choose) and this definitely violates something

“Fetus” -> “Blastocyst American”

The fetus thing really shows their hand for me. They want the literature to use the term baby, or unborn person, or some kind of language along that line as a way to erode abortion rights. Orwell really nailed this on the head, and it’s terrifying. I’m totally on board for them using “foetus”, which is not the same…

And we’re finally realizing that if one half of the humans involved in the contract sees it as “just a suggestion” or not applicable to themselves if they don’t feel like it, society breaks down.

Scientists are now recognizing “freezing” as another automatic bodily response to trauma in the same way “fight or flight” is.

As if men don’t gossip. Sheesh.

So Paul Ryan is apparently advocating “keep ‘em barefoot & pregnant”

It’s not all that uncommon, and is absolutely routinely given to outpatients, not just people cloistered away in hospitals. It frightens me, but I have both brought it up to a psychiatrist a few years back, asking whether it was an option (he was pretty shoked [no pun intended] and said that while it was, there were…

Perhaps this shouldn’t be my takeaway, but what kind of mental case offers someone FIVE MILLION DOLLARS to be a surrogate? There are plenty of discreet, reputable services who can arrange the whole thing for about 1% of that. Literally insane.

Of course his wife’s in the hospital, she had a heart attack when she found out her husband was repeatedly trying to fuck half his staff.

“Howard—who liked to be called “Dildo,” according to former employees”

It is perfect. The only way he could get sex was by buying it or stealing it, with his nasty ass.

Because men think with their dicks and they only reason they are running things for millennia is because they’re bigger and stronger and can kill us easier with their bare hands.

They just want to masturbate into someone. Doesn’t matter who.

The funny thing is that I have literally never seen or heard of this happening except from dudes who have, ahem, issues with things like feminism or not harassing women.

“This is the bed you made, you have to lie in it.”

I believe her, I just didn’t know who she was when I made the comment. In hindsight I should have left that part out of my comment, it isn’t pertinent.

I started out neutral to flying. Over time, I had some bad experiences, like the time we were sailing through clear sky when BANG! the plane was smacked down and all the overhead containers burst open and the flight stewards ran terrified down the aisle. Or the time when we circled the Palm Springs airport for an…
