Virginity is so much more a symbolic/social/psychological concept than one that has anything to do with the breaking of a particular membrane.

Oh, Petra. My heart. Her darkest fears about herself inflamed by getting the hormonal short stick, and then ripped open and salted by Magda.

I thought it was done with admirable subtly that Lip thought telling the counselor he'd been drinking since he was ten would work in his favor. (That said, I'm pretty sure making students with alcohol poisoning write 10-page essays about the Demon Liquor is probably about the least effective support tool ever.)

I'd be more concerned for Debbie not getting evaluated/treated for post-partum depression than assuming it's bipolar. (Granted, PPD and bipolar can occasionally be mutually misdiagnosed.)

I didn't want him to be dead only because I didn't want Carl to be responsible for it, especially on his tenuous movement towards having an actual life. The best Frank can do is to die in a way that minimizes his kids feeling guilty about it, as opposed to it being one final abusive mind-fuck.

I think I have a crush on their relationship now. Is that a thing?

It's pretty hit or miss if mental health records come up in background checks. Ian has the worst odds if there's a link via his military discharge or whatever paper work there is about the Yvegeny incident. Medical history, for good reason, doesn't come up in a standard check most employers or tenants do (as opposed

I did think that scene in the morning was the closest they've looked to an actual couple, and not two dudes who happen to be standing next to each other.

If this were real life?

If the counselor gave her no other alternative but distance learning, she was a pretty crappy counselor.

Despite what Lip says, Debbie does have rights regarding her education under Title IX. Actually, by immediately shunting her into distance learning the school is arguably already raising a red flag.

Thank you! After reading Trump's rambling plan to "open up" libel laws we need this.

Not a lawyer, but I think it applies only after a verdict is rendered—but it CAN apply after a hung jury if the prosecutor or judge are deemed to have acted in bad faith, and I can certainly imagine the defense making that claim.

It still feels to me they've let Ito off the hook. Are we going to see him tell the jury not to be distracted by Marcia's skirts? They definitely skipped right over his behavior in opening arguments.

I agree on the Derek stuff 100%—to me that's always been a big problem with Raf's character. And on this show, the shocking twist would be if Derek ISN'T running an international drug cartel.

Sigh. Did we really need a Straw Feminist character? I was hoping Jane the Virgin could pull off surprising me with a not-completely-awful depiction of an MFA program. Nope! Disappointing, though.

The first ad I saw for this, I had the volume turned way down and from the extended dancing sequence I assumed it was a perfume commercial.

Stephen Collins used to do a lot of alumni fundraising for my brother's college—letters signed "Stephen Collins 'RevCam.'" Not so much these days.

I have fond memories of bonding with my brother over hate-watching it. Family values in action.

Lindbergh baby kidnapping!
