Mine is more like a half-lie, I kind of knew it was wrong but I also didn’t mean to start it. When I was 7?, I used to get this weekly kid magazine that had stories and games in it and usually some sort of crafting idea. One week the crafting idea was to make one of those dioramas in a shoebox that you peer into…

Excellent point... there’s always room for another dig at a roast.

So...women of color didn’t get anything/learn anything from “white” feminism? So much so that they should reject those sisters and the past of feminist thought outright?

That seems incredibly dismissive.

I don’t think you fixed a thing.

Wonder why comments like this never popup when people talk about sites that relate to George Washington or FDR...

Yes she was white. And? Did you expect her to write about black people in 1792? Really?

what’s hilarious about my mom’s house is that it’s 10 miles from my sister, and she is often called on to babysit.

I write all my own music

But your original posting doesn’t provide any of this background and makes it seem like women who weigh more are happier and more confident than women who weigh less. Wouldn’t it be great if we could talk about these issues without seeming to shame anyone of any size? 

Am I alone in this not seeming like a big deal?

Check yourself. Dermatologists generally graduated ahead of of the ER pukes.

“I’m so very sorry, but when we were stitching you up Dr. WTF sewed his finger to your labia. It didn’t worsen the tear, but fluids mixed and we do need to do an HIV test. After we re-sew.”

Well, he famously joked, “They’re not women’s clothes. They’re my clothes. I bought ‘em”! But yes — unless his position has changed, he doesn’t define himself as female. I think he disliked “transvestite” too, if I remember rightly, because decades ago the term tended to be linked to a sexual thrill whereas he just…

Doesn’t Eddie Izzard refer to himself as a transvestite because he wears women’s clothing?

I’m old enough to remember that, but I would have thought the most difficult word in those lyrics today would be “transexual” rather than “transvestite”. The reason both words are in the lyrics was because they meant two different things: “transvestite” referring to someone who wore clothes that were traditionally…

Wow, should we hang out??? A more civilized response than some of my oldest, closest friends who dumped me afterwards because I was no longer their married confidante/ boy drama depository.

Bernie could only have won the primary if women and minorities weren’t allowed to vote.

I can’t buy any Trump arguments when Bernie couldn’t even win the primary over the *other* one of the most disliked politicians of our lifetime. 2016 was the best shot he was ever going to get. I like Bernie, but I feel about him the same way I feel about Cruz, Rubio, and the rest. Try to win over the people in your…

I did this. Exactly this. Here to report it is not as tidy as it sounds. Prepare for physical difficulties for life (schlepping kids equipment all week long from one house to another.) Also, if you’re down for it, a full spiritual, sexual and emotional awakening.
