Me: "Ugh. Another thing in the world about Rihanna. I don't care. 'Clothes-on cribbage'?! Only Lindy West could have coined such a phrase. I must read all of this, now."

I love this face! I make this face daily.

Yeah, I don't think that's the same thing. Starfishing is when one person suddenly lies back, limbs outstretched and unengaged, and stops interacting with the other.

Unfortunately it was a bit of a shrug and a "whatever, just cuz she's not that into it doesn't mean she's not cool with me finishing" :(

YES. This exact phrase came up in a conversation with a couple of my male friends. One said he hated it when women "starfish", and the other said something like, "dude, if she's starfishing you have to stop and ask if things are good. If she just tells you to go ahead, or finish, or whatever, don't! Jesus. She's…

Oh, I hope not :(

I'm an actual woman, I guess ... I have little control over my crying. I can choke back tears, sort of, most of the time. I cannot induce myself to cry. This is particularly uncomfortable because I am not an easy crier, and often fail to cry in the appropriate circumstances (funerals, farewells, out of sympathy when…

I've had male friends comment that they hate it when a girl "starfishes" - meaning, just lies there - while I've had other, more impressive male friends comment that if a woman begins to "starfish", that's probably a sign that things aren't going well and you should stop.

Yeah, I guess on the scale of sexual harassment it ranks pretty low. It was just so unexpected, especially in a town where street harassment is virtually non-existent (unless it's just that nobody street harasses me, but I think it's likely just not very common here).

Schmidt + Nick make me laugh every time. The 2 of them apart are far less entertaining.

Well, I love them all - I just don't feel the Schmidt/CeCe thing that much. I thought the Shivrang subplot was fun, and it would be great to see CeCe have real chemistry with someone. I just feel like Elizabeth's a better straight woman (kinda) to Schmidt's cheese than CeCe is.

I love CeCe, but Schmidt and Elizabeth make sense and she is a great component of that show. I will be really mad if she turns out to be merely a foil.

It's the new "I'm not really like other girls. I'm like one of the guys."

Oh. Well, that kind of behaviour sucks. On the bright side, though, I'm a champion hisser myself and am also pretty creepy when the mood strikes. I'll delight in hissing back next time, with my best penetrating stare.

Yeah, it was a seriously bad dream. I blame the dual facts that a) we are moving really far away really soon, but we don't know exactly when and it will be very abrupt and whirlwind (for my husband's work), and b) there have been house painters around a lot lately, so I'm constantly dealing with strange men around my…

Is hissing at women a thing? Because not 2 days ago I swear some guy hissed at me as I walked past on the street, and I couldn't process it at all.

I was crushing on him so hard I found myself having trouble looking him in the eye through the computer screen. That's normal, right?

Young, male, childless co-worker, after a few drinks: "So, after having babies, though, I mean ... the vagina doesn't go completely back to what it was like before, right? I mean, it's had a baby pushed through it!"

That is amazing.

Yeah, I'm usually not that affected by depictions of violence, and don't have much in the way of a traumatic history, and I found it so uncomfortable to watch that I had to turn it off.
