What about what's going on in Iceland, like, right now? It is not really a full ban on porn, but its distribution and commercialization would be severely restricted.

All those "no make-up" girls are wearing a good foundation, mascara, lip gloss and blush... AT LEAST. I know, because I am what many men would call a "no make-up" girl. If they only knew..

From my experience, when Americans use "British" they think of Southern English people, not a Geordie or a Scouser, let alone someone from Wales or Scotland.

The meaning is a bit different though. "Desfigurado" is more abstract in Spanish than "disfigured" in English, like "estúpido" is actually harsher in Spanish than "stupid" in English.

Me no likes. Nope. It isn't about the look (meh) or the feel (meh) - it is the mental image I have when I realize that the guy has somehow shaved all his pubes. You know, something like this: a 6ft something guy in the shower. Shaving cream in one hand, a razor in the other. Lifts a leg, trying to find support in the…

Nope, that's Denmark. Google the company "Color Climax". They were making child porn legally in the 1970's :/

You know who talks smack in a foreign language right in front of other people? My husband. But you see, he is Norwegian - nobody minds this Nordic looking guy talking in his native language in public. Two Hispanic employees? How dare they?! So, so rude...

You are forgetting one thing: diplomatic immunity. I worked for an NGO in Hamburg, Germany, that offered legal, social and financial assistance to immigrant women. A lot of them were sex workers. Prostitution is legal in Germany and usually, prostitutes are very well protected under German law. In theory, it's all…

Diplomats and other foreign officials working with diplomatic immunity are THE WORST. When I was living in Hamburg, Germany, I worked for an NGO that offered legal, social and financial assistance to immigrant women. A very large group of these women were sex workers/domestic workers. There was one case where the…

Another sort-of-white Hispanic here. I agree 100% with you. Marco Rubio IS white. Plus this:

There is no simple solution of course, and truth be told, I am very pessimistic about this issue. A global corporation the size of Walmart? A boycott won't break them. Sure, they'll feel it in their pockets; sure it would be a PR disaster - but they will sweep it under the rug, move their sweatshops to Paraguay or…

Akter told the Nation that she doesn't want consumers to stop buying goods produced in Bangladesh: she wants them to raise their voices. She wants us to raise our voices. Akter doesn't support a boycott of Bangladeshi goods — the millions of women employed by the garment industry depend on their jobs for income.…

I have a theory about this. We are only the "worst tourists ever" because a) we speak English and everyone can understand us b) we are so goddamn loud

Yup, they deserve to be outed, like a douchebag alert or something.

Excellent way of proving your point Lindy. It is painfully predictable that it had to be like this. Sorry you had to deal with all this bullshit :(

My brother met my now sister-in-law when she was 6 months pregnant and divorcing her ex- husband. He was right there next to her when she was giving birth to my nephew (well, step-nephew) That was 12 years ago. It happens!

For real. Worse even, the surname is actually spelled "Zúñiga". Fine, I can forgive missing the accent or the "ñ", but Zuninga? Oof.

I agree with you, but I think in this case Doug is focusing way too much in the "what about the children?!" aspect of the discussion, when the main argument is actually about porn being inherently sexist. That's exactly why they banned strip clubs in the first place. I mean, this is a country where you can buy…

But I think those feelings are just in her head. The other partners do see her as an equal (Harry -who is not even close to being a partner- is the exception, but he is this season's jackass so that's to be expected) Like her friend said, she is there, she has made it; now she has to own it. She has been struggling…

I think part of the issue is that Joan doesn't like other people stepping in to "help" her (of course, Don wasn't thinking about her at all when he dropped Jaguar, that was only a half-hearted attempt to calm her down) Remember when Peggy fired that guy that made a doodle making fun of Joanie? She didn't like it at…
