Sometimes Hillary C.'s articles are incredibly insightful and eloquent. Other articles, like this one, leave me thinking: wut?

Yeah it's often the case that there are well-established conduct codes, posted and enforced. Not so in regular restaurants and lots of managers just err on the side of the customer is always right.

Exactly. It's not that it matters what the woman is wearing, or more correctly, it's not that it should matter to anyone. But people are going to ask, because people are horrible.

You don't get protection, but there always seems to be someone questioning, 'well what was she wearing?' like that has some relevance, so I can see why she put it in.

Harassment and a 13% tip. Brian sounds like a real great guy.

Sadly, it's not just women who have to deal with this crap. My husband and I both have stories of the physical harassment we've received when we were servers. Along with the usual butt groping, my husband also had one woman grab his tie and try to pull him toward her, like he was a little dog on a leash there to do

Yeah, head pain like that is no joke. When I was in college, the health center nurse sent me to the ER when I had a migraine that wouldn't let up for 4 days (I get them chronically, but that one was abnormally long), "just to make sure you don't have an aneurysm or a tumor or something". It was sort of alarming, but I

Before people get all huffy about going to the hospital for a migraine, intense head pain can be a symptom of stroke, even if no other 'classic' stroke symptoms are present. Maybe Kanye is being over cautious, maybe he has family history and is being suitably cautious. Either way, health worries blow for everyone.

"Horne noted that "it is extremely rare — if not non-existent — for a woman to have an abortion because the pregnancy posed a risk to her life."

Crush level: Knope.

$200 a night is way higher that I've ever spent for a hotel that wasn't all inclusive. We hover a lot closer to $100. And before you say that I must be staying in shitholes, I assure you that I do not— on my last trip to Egypt, I stayed in a palace that had been converted to a hotel and that had this view from my

2000.00 damn. I went to Canada for a metal show and stayed at the MGM and blew 800 on black jack and we still did not spend 2000.oo. That is like car money. must be nice to be so rich.

It's really brave of her to share her experience.

In my experience of arguing with the MRA/PUA-bots, when you confront them with facts or science (as opposed to evo psych bio-truths) they TL;DR out. Or maybe its Too Dumb; Can't Read. Whatever. Apparently actually knowing what you're talking about is far less satisfying than HURR DURR FEMINISM!!!111!!!

Folks! 1. Dismiss 2. Do Not Feed.

So, let me get this straight. Almost 20% of women have been raped and almost 50% of women have experienced sexual violence. HALF OF ALL WOMEN. HALF!

A good indicator of the fact that this is just the tip of the iceberg is the difference between what non-hispanic and hispanic women are willing to report.

It's not really "decision making" it's opportunity, availability, and scheduling and all that. It's just trying to make it harder to get the health care the woman wants in hopes that she ends up not being able to get it at all.

Look at their menu. This is not food that should be served with ketchup. If I had a child under 10 I still wouldn't let them put ketchup on truffle fries. http://madfreshbistro.com/#!/mad-menu
