This is also my experience. I know many good men who might not read bell hooks, but who practice active consent, respect boundaries, and listen more than they speak when women are discussing their experiences. The guy that walks in yelling about his reading list and his personal practices is the guy that I do not…

Yes, the part about listening more than they talk is the most important. I have encountered countless male 'feminists' who think that because they're feminists, they can go ahead and act as if they know more about feminism and women's experience than women do.

I have never experienced assault at the hands of a male feminist, but I have experienced Macktivism for sure. I only trust men who listen more than they talk about feminism (in a conversation with women), who are feminist in actions but not necessarily name. I look for nuances in conversation, reactions to real world…

I just went to the site and everything looks AWESOME. I'm so frustrated though because I'm a size 12 - too small for plus size and a rarity in straight size stores. (I've had saleswomen wrinkle their nose like I'm smelly when I ask for a 12. The response is usually "I don't think we even carry that size". Fuck you…

I have yet to try this, since I am currently preggers and this doesn't seem like something I should try right now. But people at work are all about this. Every morning about 4 of my coworkers make their buttered coffee. This is around 8:30 in the morning. I swear all of them don't eat lunch until like 2. They just…

Just like, butt-ier. Like, 20% more butt-like.

Nobody actually knows. That's why it sells magazines/pills/underwear/diet regimes.

That family is a bunch of shitheads.

No offense to the author but this is one of those times where I'm like, "Well hell if they'll give you a book deal for that..."

A former friend lived with a woman that was a major stoner. Wake up, smoke. Go to bed, smoke. All the time, smoke. Therefore, her tolerance was very high. (haha...high.) One time we were hanging out and she had made pot brownies, a whole pan of them cut into little squares. She offered them to us and we ate a few,…

I cannot say enough good things about Paragard. I HATED hormonal bc, oh you have no idea. I had rabid mood swings and somehow gained weight with all of them. Paragard? It was kinda scary getting it inserted, but after the initial residual bleeding and cramps passed (they were no worse than my period) now I NEVER…

Oh sweetie, let me tell you my Paragard story! It got lodged in my uterus and had to be FORCIBLY removed. Almost required surgery but I told him to give it one more yank. Still, I would recommend it to anyone and will probably get another one when I want to be not getting pregnant. It really is the shit.

Paraguards for some, miniature American flags for others!

5 Hot Abortion Tricks That Will Stimulate His Legislation

OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG this has made my day.

This is how this makes me feel:

Noooooooooo! It's like dying only longer!!!

I was the same kind of drinker, and I decided to quit for the most part. I just realized that I was in a habit I wanted to break, and that I didn't get much done after I got that booze in me. It's been 14 months, and I have had one beer in all that time. I think it's good to take some time off, so you can assess what…
