So, I get how garbage can be art, particularly in the context of some fancy schmancy art gallery. But what's really pretentious is that no one thought to inform the clean-up crew that some of the garbage is art, as if that is just supposed to be obvious.

I'd like to know also. When the whole Duck Dynasty debacle was going down, I had tons of family post stuff on Facebook about how the "radical gays" were being "intolerant" of "Christians" because somethingsomething GLAAD. I wanted so badly to say something but it's so backwards just trying to wrap my head around it is…

There's a reason he's the only man from the Dunder Mifflin that Michael had the hots for.

I saw a thing on PBS about engineer students trying to design cheaper medical equipment to treat infant pneumonia in India because it's such a problem there and few families can afford the treatment. I totally cried when they talked to a mother holding a sick baby about how she had already lost two babies to…

Maybe you could write a blog or make sharable YouTube videos in the meantime (ad $!)? I love when I see comments from biblical scholars on articles about whatever dumb "Christian" BS is floating around, but it doesn't seem like there are a whole lot out there. It's super interesting and considering the cultural…

Barf.

I'm going to try to be nice about this because I don't think you are purposely trolling, although I'm going to admit that it's tough since you did jump into a women's space to mansplain rape to us ladeez - which, to let you know, is just kind of an arrogant thing to do. But ok. Here's why I assume you are not properly…

I'm gonna go ahead and assume the OP is 15, max, and just discovered philosophy.

You mean the prevailing dogma among people who understand social science on a basic level. Just... I mean read this thread, the one right here, where you just posted. Several people (with actual scientific knowledge) have already made great points about why that oh-so-popular theory is not valid.

See, your problem is that you are starting with the assumption that women are just like normal humans and then using your brain to apply reason, when everybody just knows wimmin be lyin'!!

Boom. The whole "kids be confused" argument makes zero sense. I remember when I was ~6 I saw a news story about a pastor who was in trouble for attempting to marry two men. I asked my mom why, and she had a way harder time explaining that to me ("So they weren't brothers? Then if they loved each other why couldn't…

Bleh. I couldn't wait to get out of my class with a sexist male Psych professor (who gave us ladeez a lecture on why we shouldn't get PhD's if we ever wish to get pregnant, among other things) but this semester it's a female Psych professor who is sexist. She said in the very 2nd class that dudes hate it when us…

Yup. Limbaugh will only paint this as the end of America. We are doomed by this evil "equality"! DOOOOOOMMMMED!

Sigh. You guys must be gloriously small-chested. For me, the only thing less comfortable than wearing a bra is having my girls wiggle-waggling all over the place. Plus I can't squash my fear of their alarmingly rapid decent to my belly-button. Men are so lucky that these bras are only for fashion and they can wear or…

You are SO PATIENT. I just want to thank you for your insights. If people can't understand your perspective, they are just refusing to look past their own nose (/privilege) because you have explained it articulately and respectfully. You have helped me understand it better and I'm sure there are a ton of others just…

Yeah, dude. No one is perfect. But that doesn't mean we get to ignore, not criticize, and not apologize for our mistakes. The fact that Martin deleted the tweet and apologized for it further proves to me what a great comedian he is. To be one of the greats you HAVE to be able to recognize when that joke about race was…

This is the argument I keep hearing from Christian friends. Yeah, he said some nice things. So it's really too bad he said all those hateful things which completely NEGATE the nice things!

That is beautiful! I am going to remember that for when I have kids.

Hilarious! The mom thing is so relatable.
