I'm on good terms with all but two of my exes. But we are by no means friends. They are great dudes but it just didn't work between us. I have dinner with one occasionally to catch up but I still wouldn't call us friends exactly. We're all just cool with/to each other.

Eh I think I'm kind of the opposite, or at least it's a little less cut and dried. With basically every guy I dated casually in my 20s it was like, "K we're broken up, byeeee." Not because they did anything heinous, I just really didn't care enough about them to bother hanging out if we weren't also having sex. The

wow, why are you so defensive?

Ummm... the tone of this article was really flippant. I'd love to see some more well-thought out posts about ISIS, how they view/treat women and children, and why/how these girls may have been convinced to leave their (comfortable?) lives and travel to a war zone. I know Jez isn't the NYT, but I think you guys could

You're not actually required to eat your entire burrito in one sitting. Supplementing more meat for rice and making two dinners of one burrito makes it a reasonable and economical choice.

From refusing to take out the trash to violent rape - one degree of seperation.

I am currently working in an office with a male coworker who is on the same level as me. Administratively, I am expected to take on more because he is not as competent. This means I do a majority of answering phones, dealing with clientele and duties that involve filing, database management and even creating

Signifiers of respect change. I can assure you that as a black person whose grandparents marched for Civil Rights, that I do not register this as a loss. I prefer it.

Ugh, another 3a, hair type talking about wearing their hair "natural" and acting as if its as subversive as if they were a 4c, no growth very kinky short afro like Lupita.

There are people who think masturbation in a relationship constitutes cheating. Most of us refer to those people as "complete fucking lunatics."

"Wait for the facts" is usually pretty good advice. People have an alarming propensity for sticking by their first stated assessment, even after the appearance of clearly contradictory evidence. But THIS. A couple dozen women have come forward with near-identical allegations and you think it's reasonable to dismiss

But it's just saying not to be too reliant on snap judgements. Isn't that fine? The cookie didn't know it was going to end up in a lady's hands - it wasn't trying to cut women, or anyone, off at the knees, as the writer seems to be suggesting.

You just HAD to say Lupita of all people. .

I don't want this to sound like I'm criticizing Tracee because I'm not. I love her. That said, Tracee wearing her hair has never really been a problem. Yes we live in a society that values Eurocentric beauty and curly hair doesn't exactly fit in that standard, BUT it's way more acceptable than women who have 4c hair,

No one hit me with those demands when I got engaged. I'm pretty sure it's because I've been a sensible person my entire life and everyone knew that I wouldn't get sucked into all that crap.

arent' they guests when they visit other countries? shouldn't they respect the way other countries/cultures dress? who are they to come to another country and start dictating how people dress?

"...should comply with the dress code on formal occasions out of respect for the guests of The Queen, or any other member of the Royal Family."
