I know it's hard, and it will take time for you to develop confidence and lessen your anxiety about the issue. I do want you to know that no matter what, there is someone (probably many someones) out there who you are the ultimate fantasy for.

Where did you get the idea that chocolate is something adults should be embarrassed to like?
Counterpoint: Milk is delicious.
It also seems to reinforce the idea that whites are the default humans. When they say people, they mean white ones.
Words and symbols are important, people, maybe because we, as a civilization, use them as the main vessels of our ideas and history. A cross is always charged with religious symbology, the same way a color is relevant. Sure, whites were the ones oppressing the Black Community, but by not using the word you are erasing…
Please stay in the Netherlands, then. Preferably in your house and nowhere near a restaurant.
So, this is a feminist website, and yet plenty of regular Jezebel commenters are mocking a clear case of sexual harrassment, just because it's happened to someone we don't like?
Happy Saturday, Jezzies! Rough week here, turned bullet-dodging, blessing-in-disguise better in the end, I think.
I feel like a joke about a fictional character being raped in order to very publicly blast a serial rapist who has used his power and connections to keep it quiet for 40 years is a pretty solid move. I also don't really think it was about Sleeping Beauty being raped at all. Like, yeah, it was the set-up, but the…
Not the worst thing I've ever done, but certainly one of the worst. Two years ago my long distance boyfriend (now husband) came to visit me in Birmingham, AL. We got a fancy room at the Marriott and headed to a World of Beer for NYE at 8 pm in the busy 5 Points area. Evidently they had a cash cover, so we walked a…
It was supposed to be Molly, but most certainly was not. Mr. Squiggles and I are at a terrible club with terrible dubstep on. He looks at me and says ' We have to leave, I'm hallucinating'. I go grab our coats, but then become way too high to remember my cardigan and wallet, which we had tucked by our seats. We are…
When I was in high school I had knee surgery on December 26 and the combination of immobility and hydrocodone made me super constipated and my mom had to give me an enema. At age 18. Worst NYE of my life.
I've been waiting to hear that myself—I NEVER read/hear/see articles, etc., about men who were married 50 years and had terrible sex lives. A man that doesn't have an orgasm?! Somebody call the law! Hell, all I hear about is low T this, low T that, go to specialist A, and if that doesn't work, try specialist B…
Part of enjoying sex is unlearning years of shame you are taught to feel about your body and your genitals. I had read this piece one by a bisexual man who said when asked what's the major difference between sleeping with women and sleeping with men and other than the obvious he said that women constantly apologize…
I was in NY that Christmas after studying abroad, it was all good until the massive blizzard (this was about 4 years ago) that trapped us in the city.
Anyone who doesn't appreciate how much it costs to travel home for holidays can just get over it. Or, like my dad, offer to fly me home (for Easter).
As a teacher (and as someone who suffers from OCD and anxiety), I can tell you that cognitive behavioral therapy has been a lifesaver for me. I hadn't realized how much of my anxiety was caused by my own distorted thinking.
Being abroad and not having to deal with my family and getting to hang with my inlaws (who are much more chill than my family) is the best. You're not a hostage to your mom's bad choice of husband and father. Enjoy!
Where are you living? My mum will never forgive me for the one Christmas I spent abroad.
Question for you guys. I'm seeing my parents for Christmas, and it's only me and them and nobody else for a week (they moved and I don't have friends here, my sibling can't make it). First of all, they are really really great, supportive parents, I am so lucky to have them. But, I still find it be difficult to be…
