Jia Tolentino is way too talented to be slumming it with Jezebel & co. Very well written. A+

Lmao because they feel “lucky.”

Jizzebel, stop masquerading as feminism. It’s getting really obvious.

Criminal defense is what I do, so I’m well aware of police misconduct and how easy it is for them to use self defense as an excuse to take a life they never had to take, however...

Once again this trashy website thinks it’s okay to “gossip” about someone’s potential addiction. How’s mocking suffering going for y’all this holiday season?

No he doesn’t. It’s “I didn’t do it.”

LMAO.

She ended up becoming one of the characters that made that show unbearable to watch anymore. Good for her though...?

Anti-choicers can be obnoxiously selfish. If you can’t handle a third child, feel it is risky financially, practically, etc., accept the offer for them to pay for an abortion and make sure there isn’t some nondisclosure attached to the deal (you could easily bully them out of that given the magnitute of their…

What an important, excellent piece. I know when I’m looking to rid myself of the sins I commit when mesntruating (so many sins! all the sins!) I, too, slather buffalo dung all over myself, which definitely helps cleanse me because I then proceed to shower with cow piss. I generally skip the milk because that’s just…

Can anyone please tell me why in Allah’s name she’s having this idiot’s baby?

I actually have identified with radical, not liberal, feminism for quite a while, and I gotta say... ehhhh no. Sadly, false rape accusations not only are commonplace, but do destroy lives. I work in the juvenile division for the public defender’s office & office of conflict counsel, and we see them all the time — I…

May we all have such grace when the end is nigh. Choked up reading this.

Sorry, folks, but this little girl-child is just too #distractinglysexy...

Thank you.

Yeah, exactly. I’m sorry, but the author is the first to admit they’ve already forked over in treatments what it would’ve taken to adopt. People are so stupid on here it floors me. Reading between the lines isn’t a skill-set I’m seeing in this comment section.

I grew up in an abusive household. My dad and my grandmother tortured both me and my grandfather (who had both cancer and Alzheimer’s.) When I was in the thick of the worst of it, I learned that my equally violent uncle Steve had, as a teen, hit my grandmother in the head with a gold club. I then took up golf and used…

Aww I just read this. I have no idea what her name was bc it was just some random medexpress and I was kinda focused on keeping *Katie sane, but I totally would have given it to you. I’ve had a lot of hateful docs in my day, but nothing like what I witnessed in my friend’s case. It was overbearing and cruel as fuck.…

No. It is *never* okay to disclose someone’s rape. Ever. Period. If someone I knew from five years ago decided to tell the whole world what happened to me, I would probably have a meltdown. That person was TRUSTED with sacred information that is NOT hers to spill. Rape is traumatic enough. It’s been 7 years and the…

Unless I find out some kind of devastating news pre- or mid-flight, I don’t care at all what babies or kids do as long as I am not physically forced to care for the thing. Actually, instead of being annoyed, I feel really sorry for the parents and know they’re doing their best.
