Thank you!!! It's not like she met George, fell in love with him and he died so she decided to swear off all other men in favor of library books. She would have never met him! Because he didn't exist! I mean I love this movie but that part is soooo dumb.

Agreed! I cannot stand a super low heel. I'd much rather wear flats (which I often do!) then a 3/4 inch heel or something. I do not get the point.

Is this the place where I can complain about not being able to find a shoe with a mid range heel?? They're either sky high stilettos that I couldn't walk in to save my life or something so low that Mary from It's A Wonderful Life would wear them in her alternate universe life where's she's a librarian spinster.

Um, OH MY GOD. That's crazy.

UGH. Yes, I've seen this as well and it's super disappointing. That type of response (not just from notorious idiots like Rush) is my biggest fear about this video.

I hope they make more videos too! I guess that was a big part of my fear - that this video might be THE street harassment video. I'd love it if there were more, to show more of the spectrum of it.

I did see that and loved it! Thanks! You're right, that probably did get a lot more views than this, so I probably shouldn't worry too much.

Huh, that's an interesting perspective I hadn't considered. Thanks!

Definitely the guy who walked beside her was threatening and that was by far the worst part of the video for me. And I hear you! I don't think men would enjoy this type of treatment at all, but it's just left me so conflicted. :/ And then feeling guilty about being conflicted. Sigh.

Can I say something, as a feminist, without being flamed? I really, really, really wish there was a different video on street harassment that got the 11 million views this one got. I get where the makers of this video were coming from. It's a relentless, annoying slog to have a walking commute in a big city and be

Oh my god, the one with the 12 year old in the hotel room!!!!! I got sick to my stomach.

I honestly didn't care for it all that much, but it's certainly one of a kind. And it was crazily before its time in terms of modern fiction. I think it's worth revisiting just to read it on its own merits.

Bwahaha! Don't worry, I'm already working on the crossover, Lean Into the Sharknado.

Okay, not sure if this counts because it was a dream that I had. *everyone immediately stops reading* Wait, come back! It's a short tale and genuinely terrifying.

My husband brought our dog with him to a brewery yesterday and a strange man came up to our dog, immediately and without any permission from my husband or info on our dog, swopped down, inches from his face and started ruffling his face fur in an extremely aggressive way. Our dog (a rescue, still getting comfortable

That's a really smart idea, thanks for sharing! PS I love your user name, haha.

Aw, I hear ya. I think food is great once the baby is born, but registry stuff seems better for the shower. But there's no reason good friends (or family) only get one gift anyway! :) Also, I know from personal experience, after a couple of months, the best gift of all is a free night of babysitting! (Which we

Yeesh. What a freaking nightmare! If you don't feel like providing refreshments or tidying up, there's another option called Just Don't Have A Party, Guys! Hope you have a better New Year's in store this year (probably elsewhere.) :)

Haha, okay, vegetarian is not complicated but (confession time) I also am a terrible cook. ;)

They only supplied ice and condiments??? That is the weirdest, worst barbecue I've ever heard of! Rivals the Oscar party I was invited to where it was like, come to our house and bring booze and snacks! We'll have... a TV and couches! I was like... :|
