My bestie is adopted. There are blessings to it, but also really big challenges. It’s hard being an adopted kid, even when your home life is absolutely ideal (and where/when has that ever happened in the history of time?). Other close friends are trying to adopt right now, so I’m watching the whole thing play out from

I find it especially funny as my first trip to PP was to support my ex-bf when he needed to go in for HIV testing. Planned Parenthood: It’s for the menz, too! (Not that these jackasses would ever both to find that out.)

Right? I’ve been tested at a Planned Parenthood! Planned Parenthood helped me, a puny little man with weak manparts who is surely a liberal cuck! I’m sure these big strong men who just want to defend innocent little babies from the predation of circling abortion harpies could use some free STD testing from time to

I used to volunteer a lot for Planned Parenthood in Los Angeles, and much of that was “community outreach” — going to communities that had a clinic and passing out information about the services it offered.

“He was in love with you”. No. No he was not. This is such a shitty trope. What she actually should have said was, “he liked the way you looked and so constructed an idea of who you are and put that on a pedestal and worshipped it rather than gathering his balls and finding out about you via normal conversation and

As a woman of color in science (I have a PhD, just completed a postdoc and now work in industry) I can tell you that I have never had even the slightest bit of romantic/inappropriate/sexually tinged advances. My experiences have informed me that I am the "Other", and not in any exotic or alluring sense of the word. I

Dude, you don't get it.

The show does not at all make out like it's ok. They're coming off as incredibly weird, which is deliberate (just look at the glances Phil gives them while they're sucking up to him), not to mention that Carol - the only one who's actually being herself - comes out ahead. We don't need a Melissa calling them out on it

Seriously? I'm not sure where you get your ideas of what's typical, but typically, aggressive sexual behavior is more frowned upon in women then it is men. Do you call all women with a sex drive whores? It might be time to examine your attitudes towards women, Andrew.

Y'all weren't paying attention. Carol poured multiple cans of soup into the flowerpot. At one point, two cans at once!
