I don’t know... I think when women are talking about finding dadbod attractive, they are talking about something like Jason Seigel. Meanwhile, dudes are thinking we are talking about Jim Belushi.

Just like with anti-abortion legislature, it’s the details in the ‘fine print’ that are both the most representative of where they’re coming from, as well as the most dangerous to the rights of women (The Devil really is in the details). While there’s plenty (& I do mean plenty) here to be offended by, I think what…

One of the Duck Dynasty daughters was on dancing with the Stars last year. They kept making a huge deal out of how she needed modest Daddy approved costumes. It was super creepy. The girl was young, 17, and I think there is merit in her dressing like a teenager rather than like a 35 year old. But I would hope that if…

I improved it!

I think we’re going to see this happen more and more. Kirk and Candace Cameron, the Duggars and Bates families, those “Duck Dynasty” assholes ... They all promote exactly this kind of sexist bullshit and have a scarily high number of fans who aspire to be just like them.

“In 2015, telling young women that it’s their responsibility to keep chaste and virginal in order to retain their “character” is just plain irresponsible.”

That’s so great that you will be a nurse! I bet if you get a lot done this summer you will be in amazing shape!

The only reason I would feel my parents should know is so they don’t have some false hope about me bringing home a husband. Otherwise, you’re right.

I’m actually in grad school full time, commute 1 1/2 hours to get there, and I teach full time close to my home. We got engaged at the end of January and are getting married at the beginning of July, mainly because I can’t take time off in Fall or Spring and we didn’t want to wait another year because we are old and…

I know some people like that and I’ve learned to just put up with them even though I honestly consider it kind of shitty. My biggest fear is like, what if something ever happened to them and you just didn’t know because they were never good at being in touch.

I’ve recently come to the conclusion that I am asexual. For years I wondered why I could never relate to any who talked about sex and why sex either bored me or made me uncomfortable. I also wondered why I never seemed to feel like everyone else when it came to sex. Bottom line, I just don’t care about it. Literally…

Oh no! I just saw a post on my cousin’s Facebook page from an MRA website... In support of the message (that there is nothing wrong with patriarchy and furthermore that it is superior to an equal system). Major yuck.

Attraction is important. In my opinion, just as important as sharing the same interests or getting each others’ sense of humor.

Please advise - I am currently in a relationship with a wonderful man. I love him, he loves me. We are in many ways a good match for each other.

I have a lovely female friend who is a flakey about texting and calling. She is great in person. However, we no longer live in the same city which makes texting/calling an important part of our friendship. We’ll go through periods where we talk all the time then she’ll disappear for a few weeks. Can someone else…

Hi everyone! I’m new Jezebel/Kinja/commenting/saturday night social, so hope I’m using this right. I’m having a really rough time right now and was wondering if anyone could provide some insights/advice/general commiseration. Ok, so here it goes.

You guys, I am reading the best book about female sexuality. It’s called Come As You Are, by Dr. Emily Nagoski. I’m learning all kinds of stuff about about my lady parts and brain I didn’t realize I didn’t know. (Did you know the hymen doesn’t break, it stretches?) It’s smart and funny. I’m super excited about this…

I am having a lot of first world problems. I feel incredibly guilty about my focus on them.

I was told this week that I have vaginismus. A week after turning 30. Yay...this sucks. It’s awful and it’s impacted my sex life for 9 years. I’ve suspected that I’ve had this for at least 5 years now.
