I am having a little trouble with this comparison. Mainly because abortion is a standard part of women’s healthcare and this is not apart of standard healthcare at all that I can see.

Fucking bumpy landings are the worst. As someone who lives in the windy city, I have suffered through more than a few. Landings are supposed to be joyous— it’s almost over! But a bumpy landing be like..you THOUGHT you were saaaaafe!
It’s not pushing back against healthy eating, it’s pushing back against the bullshit, non-science based nonsense that idiots like the Food Babe focus on.
*mouth waters*
Of course the officer confused and intimitated him into the confession. That’s exactly what they’re trained and love to do. That’s why people should take their “Right to Remain Silent” seriously.
There could’ve been a number of reasons — no eyewitness testimony, for one, because the roommate who said she’d heard sex sounds was supposedly separated from them by a curtain and was so uncomfortable talking about sex on the stand it was hard for her to even say what she’d heard. Also, although Rayhons’ semen was…
Right? And think about how traumatizing it would be to have an unwanted penis and to have to carry it around all the time. A little empathy is called for. Just a little.
If you’re trying to say that there’s no difference culturally between a childhood/adolescence/young-adulthood where the world views you as a boy, and same where the world views you as a girl, I really can’t get with that. It isn’t true.
As it was explained to me (by someone who used to attend the festival, but is in favor of being trans-inclusive), there’s a lot of nudity at the festival (which, on its own, must be pretty powerful—seeing the non-sexualized bodies of tons of women of all shapes and sizes, normalized and not in a context of…
Don’t you know that if you’re not using a Diva Cup, you’re basically denying the Holocaust and taking a dump on a baby panda’s head simultaneously?
Why are you against collecting your menstrual blood in a plastic cup for multiple days and then reusing it? That’s definitely not gross at all. Nope. Not at all.
Is it creepy that I came here just to read the fucking comments?
I usually feel the same way about books translated to film. In this case, however, the TV show is DEFINITELY an improvement so far. I have a lot of frustrations with the books, especially regarding the rapeyness and disposable secondary characters. For example, Angus and Rupert are names of people at Castle Leoch, but…
My favorite though, was when I overheard a new employee who was prepping cucumbers and talking to the dish washer. She thought it was really dishonest that we said some of our sandwiches were vegetarian or vegan when they contained cucumber. The dishwasher was confused and said that cucumbers were vegetables. The…
It's not minor- pregnancy puts a lot of strain on your body, and it's important that women are able to recuperate before putting themselves under that strain so closely over and over again, to avoid negative health outcomes down the line.
An American colleague (relevant) tells this one about himself. He was on a plane in Japan, on final approach to Hiroshima, when he noticed how new the city’s architecture appeared from the window. His Japanese traveling companion replied, “yes, we had a fresh start in 1945.”
I don’t know if this is better or worse for being at a Renaissance Faire, but here goes!
About 10 years ago (when smoking in bars was still a thing) I was being aggressively hit on by some dude at a bar in front of his friends, then he asked me for a cigarette. I leaned back in my barstool, reached into my purse for a cigarette, lit it, blew smoke in his face without breaking eye contact while his friends…
I just remembered a great one! Last month, my friend - who is the chillest, least confrontational, most mild-mannered person in the whole world - was visiting Israel and he ran into some German lady who was like, “Why can’t there just be peace?” My friend was all, “Yeah, totally” (my friend and I are both Jewish but…
Waiting at the airport for a flight. There’s a line of about 10 people at the counter that were delayed from an earlier flight. Some dude pushes past the line and screams at the desk agent that, “(He) has to be on this flight! And it has to be first class!” Agent tells him that she can help him but he need to wait in…
