I am 100% against the death penalty in any and all cases. That said, the idea that beheading is "barbaric" is just western racism.

What a fairytale of an idea. What help would you suggest my parents be 350 miles from Fellow's job and where I will be training and working? Do you suggest they sell their luxury condo? Leave their lives of hobbies, season theatre and opera tickets, jazz festivals, ski club, volunteer work, lifelong friends, and…

I HATE it when friends of ours ask their husbands to "babysit." For some I think it is cultural, for others, just a matter of wording (as in they use the term for themselves, too, for lack of a better one?). Still. Ugh.

For me it hits a little closer to home, in that a lot of my friends are being blatantly exploited as au pairs and I was exploited as a babysitter/tutor for this class of dual-income families in egalitarian Sweden. When you "have it all", even here, you must be stepping on someone else to get there.

Yep I'm always a bit confused when people refer to cleaning/nanny jobs as exploitation of the people doing them. As long as theyre paying them well and giving them all the benefits they're entitled too I'm sure the person working the job doesn't feel 'expolited' and more grateful to have an employer who treats them…

This is why Oprah didn't want a family. She says she's too ambitious to put career aside for family, and she didn't want to have a bunch of emotionally neglected kids just to fullfill her ambitions.

Both of my grandmas did those jobs- cleaned other people's houses and watched other people's kids. I don't know if they looked at it as exploitation. I think they looked at it as what they had to do to put food on the table, and there definitely wasn't any discussion of who's "career" came first, because both people…

Saw this opening night. It was pretty good, I thought JLaw did a good job portraying how lost Katniss is. I was not amused at the amount of theater goers that laughed at Prim for going back for Buttercup. "I couldn't leave him, I couldn't live with myself!" pretty much sums up why Prim would have been first to die…

i didn't really interpret the illustration as literal

Why are we acting like this is only about her touching her 1 year old sister's vagina when she was 7 and not also about emotionally coercing her sister into sleeping in her bed and then masturbating while she sleeps? And about paying her sister in candy to give her long kisses on the lips? And about paying her sister…

Where do you hear this, exactly? In your own shitty head? I have literally never in my fucking life heard a woman complain that she wasn't street harassed. And catcalling isn't conversation, it's harassment. That's not how relationships start, it's how men let women know they're being watched.

Men's biggest fear about online dating: a fat chick.

Seriously. Stalking is a crime. Posting a negative anonymous review online is not. Plus, I wouldn't trust Kathleen Hale is 100% telling the truth here. The only evidence against 'Blythe' is coming from Hale.

I equate people who have that mentality to people that support slavery. Love my tobacco, hate those spear chuckers.

That is my favourite line in the whole LotR.

I've always agreed with those sentiments.

Absolutely right. How can you be content to consume porn then devalue the people producing it? Oh wait, porn actors are not actually people. Forgot about that.

No! Please god ladies, give us another chance. Btw, I've seen her work and this woman is a goddamned blow job artist. I will never understand bros who get the privilege of dating someone who most of us will never even get to be in the same room with and then treat them like shit. Also, I grew up in a house with…

Getting a bit sick of Lolita stories from the Adults point of view. Give us the kids point of view and actually show the damage done.

The Invisible Latino! We aren't represented unless it's on a show of ALL Latinos, where all the jokes are about how they ARE Latino!
