Okay, here I thought you somehow needed to tell the State if you were, you know, just handing over guardianship of a child to someone else.

Of the 15 icons chosen, only three are women of color (Iman, Grace Jones, and 15-year-old Tyra).

Who wore it better?

"Born in October of 2000 – this handsome boy, 'Rick' was placed from India a year ago and is obedient and eager to please."

But they'd have to care as much about foreign kids as they do about American kids. Which they don't.

Doesn't money have to change hands for it to be trafficking, too? I mean this is obviously trafficking, because it seems to fall into a legal grey area, which is horrible.

It strikes me that the way we define "trafficking" in the legal sense isn't really adequate, particularly in circumstances like this.

I took exception to the use of "rescued," here: "The Puchallas had rescued Quita from an orphanage in Liberia, brought her to America and then signed her over to a couple they barely knew. Days later, they had no idea what had become of her."

YUP. Yup yup yup. I think a lot of people are closed off to the idea of adoption without giving it much thought, and that is sad, but I also want to throat-punch people whose response to pregnancy, IVF, fertility treatments, etc. is "just adopt."
JUST adopt? Seriously? The phrase has never been uttered by anyone who…

These are the first articles in a series, according to the story I read on Today, which was citing the Reuters findings. Hard to think it can get any worse. The Today story briefly talked how some of these adoptive parents would explain they couldn't deal with their children's sexual abuse and wanted to give them up,…

I suppose the joke is that she can't or won't die. I can see how it could be funny. Like Bill Murray trying to off himself repeatedly in Groundhog Day.

And then we can blame the downfall of superhero movies on women! Yay!

Women made it into the top five of "phases"? Right on! We were noticed! Maybe after all the sequels, group movies, and movies about other male heroes are done, we'll get a shot!

I didn't make it through the free sample. It was just...ugh...WTF is this shit?

That sucked. Reminded me that I've burned through all the OISTNB and there isn't anything entertaining around.

He's old and stupid,that's why.

Maybe the judge felt she was wearing too much makeup or her clothes were too slutty and therefore, she completely understood sex on the same level as a 25-year-old woman. Because of makeup. And clothes. And maybe some dirty words.

And I would have gotten away with it too, if not for you meddling internet feminists!!

This judge has the milky, dazed eyes of that grandpa who gives you candy and then tells you loving stories about the Nazis while making stroking your arm a little too close to your budding breasts.

THERE IS NO TYRA ONLY ZUUL!
