As a PMDD sufferer I turn into a rage fountain for almost a full week before my period. It’s actual terrible going to work during that time because sometimes I do/say things I later regret but I know I can’t reasonably take time off work every month to avoid being rude to people who probably deserve it but usually my…

It doesn’t really matter, except in how it is presented to young women, who I believe were a large part of her desired influence. Talking about the range of applications for make-up/skin care and why some might feel more important and some more indulgent is a good conversation to have.

As a woman who has never worn make-up on a regular basis (98% of the selfies I’ve ever taken have been “no make-up selfies”), celebs swooping in and being all I DISCOVERED MAKE-UPLESSNESS is also super annoying to me as well.

I kind of don’t care, but I do think it’s frustrating for someone to make a huge deal out of not wearing any make-up but then wear “some” anyway. Why the “some”? And why not just say you are wearing some? Because if the point is to encourage ladies to feel comfortable being make-up free, and you aren’t comfortable…

To be honest, I also have reservations about being a regular style white lady with a south american last name. The idea of it somehow makes me feel like an asshole.

I don’t know of any states that won’t let you change your last name if you want to, it just might not necessarily be part of the marriage process.

A hypothetical son and his hypothetical wife could do the same thing and create a new, different last name. Whereas with hyphens, you basically just have to drop two of the names entirely if the person marries someone else with a hyphenated last name. I don’t care at all about a last name being part of a “lineage.”

“Ellis Island name” is an easily understood way to communicate that my ancestors came from Russia and changed a difficult-to-pronounce surname so something easy for Americans to say. I actually have no idea the story of how or when their name was chosen, but a WHOLE LOT of americans with russian ancestry have it.

No judgment here! Every woman should do what she wants.

Ours kind of sounds Jewish no matter how you formulate it, and my partner is Latino, so I get why he’s reluctant. BUT STILL.

I think it’s one of the best options out there if you want to have the same last name as your spouse but also want to smash the patriarchy. I don’t like hyphenation because it’s a one generation solution. However, my partner is pretty attached to his last name because it has actual history attached to it, whereas mine…

If they’d just changed their last names to Allah when they got married they wouldn’t be having this problem.

Forbidding trans people from entering bathrooms that match their identity just seems a whole lot closer to censorship than whatever they are whining about. Though neither one is censorship.

It’s amazing that he can run a shadow government from the South Pacific.

Censorship? What is supposed to be being censored?

I will literally never in my life be able to successfully forgot the what-felt-like-decades-long nonsense conversations about “death panels”

“And once we get it done, and then we can have the chance to really explain it.”

The principle of telling women that they have to find a job within 2 months of giving birth seems to be completely incompatible with FMLA just from like, a logical brain* standpoint.

OH GEE WHAT A SHOCKING THING TO LEARN I HAVE NEVER HEARD THIS

Yeah, if the ONLY democratic platforms she agrees with are “don’t be violently racist” and “treat humans like they are human” then I doubt she is going to make waves in Hawaii (#seewhatididthere) (also I actually don’t think you can be pro-choice and anti-marriage equality and even legitimately claim to be in favor of…
