Serious question, even if people have the financial or insurance means to pay for long term treatment, who can take 6-12 months out of their work life and still be able to pay/have insurance?

So unless you aren’t eating your food, or you have the most well-known form of bulimia — the binge-n-purge — you feel fucking dumb saying you have an eating disorder. ‘Cause it’s food.

"Men get eating disorders. Yep, even straight men."

I am also a food addict, except I am fat and getting fatter. I was never a fat person, never in my life, until my father died and that's when my brain decided the answer was food and lots of it. It has been almost 3 years since he has passed and I've gained 60lbs and I can't stop. Of course, instead of having a…

I've been a fan of yours — your stuff about rape culture, your stuff about veganism — for a while. I'm so fucking sorry you're going through this. And yet I'm also so happy that someone as frank and brave and hilarious as you is around to give voice to a problem that many people treat as invisible. Men get eating…

"What did you expect them to do?"

Right, because asking a sales person for a size and finding out they don't carry it is the same as having someone make unsolicited comments about your weight and being asked to leave the store.

Even if she was too big to wear their clothes, this is extra special anti-fat bias because she is also too big to wear their perfume, accessories, buy a gift for anyone, or look around. OR TO FUCKING ACCOMPANY HER FRIEND. Assuming it went down as she says it does (which, well, I believe her), this was such a…

I disagree. This video is not only slamming Robin Thicke's icky, rapey video. It also (perhaps unintentionally) appears to be making a stand against the fetishization of women in pornography — the use of the vibrator, the whipped cream on his face — these are all valid, visual criticisms of the way that women are…

honestly if men can make hit songs basically advocating harassing/raping/humiliating women then I think its perfectly valid to take it to the extreme in terms of emasculation and castration. (CAUSE ITS NOT LIKE THEYRE ACTUALLY DOIN IT)

One has to wonder how Dude's perspective might change (or have changed) once and if he has a 16 year old daughter. A reckoning at best, maybe, or a preoccupation with her not being slutty. Either way, agreed, warped.

Crikey! What a terrible story but good on you for ending your association with Dude. There is no way to realign that perspective with reality — it is just too warped.

Bingo.

Also from the original article: "If religious leaders and heads of state can’t keep their pants on, with all they have to lose, why does society expect that members of other professions can be coerced into meeting this standard?"

For me the most offensive line:

"I’ve been a 14-year-old girl, and so have all of my female friends."

Weird. I was a starter husband. I wish I could have given it a name back then. We married just a few days after my high school graduation. I loved her so much that I kind of threw away everything in my life to get to be with her. A year later we were lying in bed and she rolled over and said she was leaving me. …

Stay safe, Amanda.

How is making fun of Hitler anti-Semitic? Am I missing something or did the story leave out something?
