Fuck that noise— SHE'S the oddball. We're the fun ones. ^^

Thank you! It is my biggest pet peeve when people try to argue that their choices aren't influenced by the culture they grew up in/live in and/or get angry at the implication they might be—it's hard to take anything they say seriously after that because this is child development 101: who you are is determined by a mix…

And this is why we need to bring comprehensive history education back* into American schools. And not just Patriot!American history, but a history that is actually set in a world context and which explores not just events but their causes and effects. I went to high school (something that happened <10 years ago) with…

People will say anything:

Or when actors have bills to pay and just take the work that is offered to them without investigating all aspects of the production and purpose of the work.

Yeah, the system will be inherently classist until legal representation becomes accessible and affordable.

As someone staring down a potential $2000/month for infant daycare in Queens NYC, we need subsidized daycare. Like, yesterday.

The word needs to be gotten out that this is illegal and people victimized for it can and should sue their employers over it. You can't fire someone for being injured (like I essentially was after being in a car accident), and you can't fire them for taking time off to care for an ill family member. If I'd had ANY…

Hah, I was thinking along those lines :) "For an initial introduction, a treat may help break the ice; perhaps a Home Depot gift card or a new softball mitt will help relieve a lesbian's anxieties."

That might lead her to assume you are attracted to her. She will then back away slowly.

Do not assume she is attracted to you

GRRRR! I don't care how you feel about pubic hair as long as you apply it to your own personal life and stay out of everyone else's More importantly, how about don't fucking touch other people's damn hair! And to start patting Richard's hair while making a comment about pubic hair is so fucking disrespectful.

Based on her comments, I would very much enjoy seeing Kim Kardashian without eyebrows.

The boys felt the same way (about girls with hair). It's a whole different debate, I know, but I can't help but think that some of it comes from the fact that so much of their ''sex education'' comes from online porn: as one 14 year old boy patiently explained to me: ''Miss, why would I have posters of girls on my…
