Call me prudey, call me whatever you want. I think there should be a lil mystery and you don't have to be your most gross self in front of your significant other, basically ever. If you're sick or it can't be helped that's one thing but damn, have some fucking decorum. I was married for 16 years and I still used to…

I am cursedblessed with tiny (like AA) cups and it dawned on me lately that I think my boobs are totally adorable, and I'm turning 40 in 7 weeks. They're just cute as hell, and might actually be my favorite body part. It took me literally two decades to come around to this point of view. I spent more than half my…

DISHWASHER TRUMPS BOOBS EVERY TIME! It is a giant square robot that washes your dishes so you don't have to. Sadness: I am 48 and still waiting for said giant square robot. (sigh).

I'm sorry she hasn't taken the opportunity to quietly fade from public view to attempt to give her child a quiet, media-free upbringing.

WHOA! Wait a fucking minute... MALEFICENT is not in any of your comments?!

No Contest. Margaret Hamilton as the greenest, meanest Witch in the West.

My mom called it a "truck stop." And always said it was considered unattractive when she was younger.

I thought a thigh gap was a bad thing. I am a guy and not being all that up on the different ways that women judge and shame each other, I had no idea that a thigh gap was supposed to be a good thing. In any case, its not all that important to guys, a woman can be hot in some many different ways, that we do not focus…

Has anyone seen this absolutely incredible and generally inspiring statement from Sen. Elizabeth Warren? Her general badassery might give us all a little hope.

Yeah, having too much info beforehand is a big disincentive for me too. Which is part of why I found this so annoying. There's no indication from Don Jon's trailer that Julianne Moore is a significant love interest. I'd have probably figured it out once the characters meet in the movie, but it would have been more…

So true. I was pretty pissed that Jezebel did this, and I saw the movie yesterday. But if I hadn't I would've been livid.

I change tampons for that reason, and also b/c I am afraid something will get on the string and climb up into my vagina, causing vaginosis or some such.

Exhibit A: A Tweet from Sarah with the words: "I'm having minstrel cramps".

God damn this is a real couple's real wedding? Is everyone they know a model?!

Except for when it's not. Read through some of the other comments here—there are plenty of women who struggled without time off, or who struggled even with it. And even if it is "all mental", it's still a problem. A person who is having serious mental problems does need time off, especially new parents. Raising a…

I can't be the only one who saw the link, grabbed a credit card and then got really sad, right?

Mama doesn't care!

This. Completely. I feel like the Bert and Ernie are gay thing is totally a jocky joke about how men cannot have close relationships without it being sexual. It sucks.

@Tchotchke: exactly this-so eloquently written, thank you.

As I've mentioned in other threads, I find his work rather dry and predictable, to say nothing of how derivative it is. The thing that I've been thinking about a lot since Rie first told her story, is how certain cultural circumstances facilitated Richardson's rapid rise to the top of the fashion industry.
