A lot of women in the U.S. do feel that unsafe. And yes, the world is a sad place.

You know more about this than I do. All I have is the visual. Goodnight, my dear.

Okay, but if I were heckled because of how my husband did his job, yeah, I’d be calling him out on it. And if my students started hassling him, he’d be right to complain about that as well.

Interesting. See, I was projecting: one of my wedding photos looks remarkably like this one. In it, I was less angry than concerned about a potentially problematic guest; my groom was less impassive than dismissive.

The photo of Gisele Bundchen and Tom Brady is disturbing to me, because it describes almost every (hetero) relationship I’ve ever been in.

I live in this town part-time. It’s not something in the water, is it? Because there’s a lot of water in this town.

Don’t take this the wrong way, but, uh...let’s not be friends.

How could I have forgotten about Billy Tipton. Thank you.

Thanks. This book is out of print, but I will look into it!

Hi, folks. I know it’s a long shot at this later hour, but I wonder whether any of you can provide me with some film or literary references on the FTM trans experience beyond Boys Don’t Cry and Middlesex.

Creepy! OMG so creepy.

PSA: Unless you are flirting, do not ever wink. I’ll admit it; I went through a winking phase for a while. I don’t do that anymore.

I’ve had mine for at least 15 years (watch, not band). And it replaced one that I’d had since college.

I wear a Timex Indiglo with a leather band, but then, I’m 52.

I have Annabella, too! Such a pretty deep red, and it lasts and lasts. The whole Audacious line is pretty and perfect.

I knowingly took Quaaludes once with a guy with whom I was generally consenting. I’m sure he was very disappointed when the drugs made me want to go compose music instead of doing whatever he had in mind.

Nearby in the 413.

I happen to know that there’s one at the Shriner’s Hospital for Children in Springfield, Mass., as well.
