"Femininity is depicted as weakness, the sapping of strength, yet masculinity is so fragile that apparently even the slightest brush with the feminine destroys it."
—Gwen Sharp

As someone with ADHD, I'd say that's definitely part of the problem. College is way, way easier for me than high school, because...

1) Classes are much shorter, so I'm less likely to zone out

2) I can choose when they are, so I can avoid "problem times" during which I'm more likely to have difficulty focusing, such as…

I agree. It seems a bit too complicated for me, like all of the tastes would compete and make a mess.

We were in high school, so everyone thought his red, flaking scalp was hilarious XD He was that one kid who always had a stupid and possibly dangerous idea in his head.

Donating to organizations and clinics that provide abortions and other reproductive care, like Planned Parenthood, is a good start. If you want to get really involved, you could volunteer for one.

And obviously, voting for pro-choice politicians works too!

I think The Dark Knight has a part in which Batman beats up a wannabe with a gun.

I once knew a guy who used Nair on his head because he thought it would be easier than shaving. It was easier, but infinitely more painful.

Perhaps we have fewer "traditionally" (quotes because there are several traditions of masculinity to draw upon) men because Western society is (very) slowly getting used to the idea that what's in your underwear doesn't necessarily say anything about what your character, skills, or hobbies are or should be?

Yes, but it seems that a lot of those people with agency and free will are parents, who also apply that view to their children's vaccinations. Children are generally not credited with the necessary knowledge and maturity required to make their own medical decisions, which is why their parents do so for them. And…

Definitely recommend. Although it was originally made for kids/teenagers, it handles many "adult" issues like war, genocide, and abuse and handles them well. The character development is phenomenal, and the writers did their research so well that there is an entire blog dedicated to the oodles of nuance and cultural…

The part that confuses me the most is that it's only some oily/greasy foods. Non-olive-based salad dressing or greasy pizza? Totally fine. Vegetable tempura? Nope, ain't happening. (Which is very sad, because I love vegetable tempura.)

I'm thinking it might be sesame oil, but I'm not sure. I'm going to talk to my…

I have little to offer but my sympathy and commiseration. Some oily foods make me feel miserable hours after I eat them, but only some. I'm still trying to figure out what it is, exactly.

I think that law is one of those professions in which you are expected to be aware of your own facial expression and to be able to create and maintain a serious one.

Ann Coulter has a spirit?

Oh, great. Now when she dies we'll have to worry about her poltergeist.

...like Ron Paul?

Thanks! That's what I thought, too, but it's nice to hear someone with more experience confirm my suspicions. My bank already tried to rope me into getting a MasterCard—lesson learned: "overdraft protection" that you have to sign up for is not your friend!

Thanks. Like Penabler said, it really does mean a lot when you say that you think we're doing well.

Can I ask you about credit cards? People keep telling me that I should get one to build credit, but is it really that necessary? I really hate the idea of voluntarily putting myself into debt, and I'm extremely…

All of my Millennial friends play tabletop RPGs, therefore 99% of Millennials play tabletop RPGs!

Your friends do not constitute a random sampling. You non-randomly chose to hang out with these people for whatever the hell reasons you had (idk why you want to waste your apparently super-valuable time on people that you…

I hear you. I've lived with people who planned big, fancy weddings. Looks like a lot of headache for very little payoff (for someone who isn't very into parties).

Seems pretty rare—I've only ever seen it a handful of times. I think it's useful in certain situations—like if you're talking about gender and race.
