Masturbate to the women in the JC Penney catalouge while their mothers are making dinner?

Can I just say A+ to all the snarky comments already posted? The Jez commentariat is ON IT today.

So the only time a Romney campaign internal poll was correct, it seems.

Actually, the platypus and the echidna do not have teats, so they feed their babies milk that they secrete like sweat.

Time to work harder. You can DO it!

Maybe I'm missing something, but it sounds like the two of you want the same thing. Right? So you aren't forcing him into anything. Regardless, it's good that you brought up your concerns. You've been together four years; he needs to know what you're thinking. He shouldn't expect you to read his mind though.

It always creeps me out how these people write like Son of Sam. It's not enough for them to be creepy, sexist racists, they have to make you imagine some reporter slowly easing the letter out of the envelope with tongs.

How dare they! Amusements parks are supposed to be meritocratic playgrounds never tainted by the stench of capitalism.

"Too little too late." - Catelyn Stark

Boy, I guess Piper really was never the same after Prue died.

I don't even click on those stories because it bothers me so much that Jez would continue reporting on this young woman so heavily. All the "I'm so concerned about you Amanda!" and sad faces don't justify Jez's obnoxious coverage.

Preach girl!!

Thanks! I am glad to see so many commenters feel the same way. I was surprised at the headline since I thought Jezebel knew their audience. I think another way they could have also gone with it would criticize other places for the insensitive way in which they are reporting on this. They could still include it in the

The link to Radar was pretty icky.

Could Jessica Coen or Anna Breslaw please explain why the mental health of a 15-year-old is material fit-to-print? I'm genuinely curious how you've rationalized this.
