Sympathy, I have so much sympathy. What an uncomfortable situation to find yourself in, and it sounds like you've finally gotten yourself out of that hellhole and now you're being dragged back in. That's awful.

God, that sucks so much. I'm so sorry you're going through that. I want to give you all the hugs (or all the hugs that you want, and no more than that).

I absolutely, without a doubt, would have started spiking my sandwiches with durian and ghost peppers.

I LOLed. Well played. Well fucking played.

A lot of people are baaaaaaaad at writing profiles. It's possible to focus on a whole bunch of non-essential stuff about yourself (what you typically do on a Friday night/over the weekend, what kind of music you like, how you like to have fun sometimes but also be chill, that you love your niece/brother/dog more than…

Your middle paragraphs is basically me. I'm not plus-sized, but I'm a redhead, and I find that there's a large percentage of guys out there for whom a redhead is not an attraction but a fetish. Being fetishized fucking sucks, and from what I've gleaned talking to a close friend who's plus-sized, it's an issue that…

Dear school judiciary committees:

I think, well intentioned as this is, your question misses the larger point. We have Title IX, which says, paraphrased, "If someone is sexually harassed on school grounds, you must perform a fair and thorough and timely investigation. If it seems more likely than unlikely that the allegation is true, you must remove…

Yay you! In celebration of your impending doctorate, I humbly offer a naming story:

So I'm no expert; I definitely encourage you to read more about the logic behind Title IX for a better understanding (if you haven't already).

I respect what you're saying (and a special nod to the Lincoln-style refrain in which you said it). But I don't think #NotAllMen is the best way to evaluate the firestorm of responses to the headline. What's happening, IMO, is a consensus that the ends in this case do not justify the means. White people do not get to…

Hello World Cup fans! Has anyone found a way to buy a woman's jersey for a team that isn't one of the super-popular ones (aka Spain, Italy, Mexico)? I'm a diehard Chile fan, but I can't find an authentic jersey fitted for women - just plenty of T-shirts, plenty of men's Chile jerseys, and plenty of women's jerseys for…

Ew. All of that, just ew. My Spanish was still fledgling while I was there, so I understood very little of what was said to me and at times I definitely felt it was a blessing. But on the other hand, it made it hard to dissect the reasons behind the things I could understand. Always appreciate someone else's…

Chile was ridiculous. I've never come close to that level of harassment. It was, I swear, 1x city block. I lived 3 blocks from the Bellas Artes metro and could not get there without a handful of honks and/or those weird kissy noises. My friends and I got hit on a lot during vacation around the Mediterranean but even…

HE TRIED TO FOLLOW YOU INTO YOUR UNIT? I am beyond squicked out on your behalf. Take whatever precautions you need to take - your instincts are 100% correct on this one.

Mark, this REALLY needs an edit and clarification. I understand how it happened, but inferring "six men" from "six people" is flat-out wrong in this instance; The Independent is saying it's four women and two men.

Stick with "Doctor's Appointment" without shame. If pressed, explain that you've been having extremely heavy periods or ongoing diarrhea or something so squicky that they never dare ask you again. I have Irritable Bowel Syndrome, and I give you full permission to use my disease in service of your job hunt. Even the…

I'm a 30-year-old virgin myself, so I get the pressure, believe me. I wrote a Wall O' Text in response, but I think it'll be easier to understand the tl;dr version.

Hi Jezzies! I live in the US, and ever since college, most of my friends have done most or all of their dating online. Recently I've been debating moving overseas, and it occurred to me that I have no idea if online dating is as popular elsewhere as it is in the US. I assume it is, but I don't actually know. So I'm…
