You have a good point. One of my best friends is a very pro choice feminist and some of her earliest memories are being forced to hold anti abortion signs by the side of the road. There can be hope.

Bless you for the important work you’re doing. 

This! I used to think she was so cool when I was a teenager.

Totally! I feel like if he’d been like, “Everything these women are saying is ture, I was a totally inappropriate douchebag and misused my influence to commit sexual harassment but I’m extremely sorry and I’m seeking counseling, please don’t let something I did harm their careers.” Then MAYBE he wouldn’t be such a…

She might be using it to feel comfortable moving around after abdominal surgery? 

Exactly. You hit the correlation does not equal causation nail on the head.

I always find it strange when people who are breaking up go on about how they still love each other, have no regrets and are still best friends etc. If that was truly the case you’d think they would still be together.

Totally agree. This seems like a classic case of the law not catching up to the technology. 

Fakest tear wipe in the history of fake tear wipes. 

I think in a lot of cases the couple get trapped in a cycle and don’t want to go through the big life changes of ending it for many reasons. But “it’s for the kids” is the best way to justify this to others and in their own minds. In my experience, claiming the kids well being is your reason to let them live with two…

Came here to say exactly this.

You’re not wrong. Unfortunately the fantasy lives on.

You’re brilliant. I’m taking your idea. I have a very emotionally strong friend who got a bed bug infestation in her apartment once. She called me to tell me. In the decade we’ve been best friends it’s the only time I ever heard her cry.

Preach! I’m 37 years old but I’m a 5'3" ginger woman. I’ve always looked way younger than I am and twice this year my 20 something bearded male intern was mistaken for me professionally. My favorite was when a particularly thick, but important older male in a meeting kept ignoring me and deferring to my intern. Poor…

I’m often called to community events for my work because I work in development and when I attend with my boss, even though I’m in full suit with a name badge and files in hand we often get, “Oh great! My wife’s here too if you want to head over there.” Not that I mind the wives. Often times they’re smarter than the…

My first reaction was, “No Zaddy! Bad Zaddy!”

This happened to me in high school. I was a huge history nerd who went on to earn my University degree in history. I remember multiple times reading things in the textbooks in high school and saying, “ummm this was disproved like, 5 years ago.” But I knew to fake it for the test grade. 

I dated a military recruit for a year when I was much younger. Looking back now, he should have been in a long term mental health facility instead of being trained for combat. They seriously need to start paying the armed forces better, but expect better too.

I think you’ve really stumbled onto something here.

This! So hilarious and he was such a sport!
