The problem is, by saying you only feel sympathy for their children and not for these women stuck doing something they regretted, you're ensuring that women will continue to feel ashamed for having these feelings and they won't speak about this frankly to people close to them or anyone else, and will keep these

I'm pretty sure the poster is just trying to stir the pot. There is no way anyone actually believes that, right? RIGHT?

Guess what: it's not the LW's problem; these parents are making it everyone's problem by not providing their snowflakes with books, homework, tablets, whatever to keep them occupied and out of the way of fellow employees and customers. When I'm shopping, I don't want your bored kids to interrupt my salesperson

Why is it the letter-writer's problem?

Sitting at home due to a school cancellation does not in the least make you an expert on why schools are cancelled. Why would it? If that's true, then all children would be experts on why schools are cancelled as well, since they do the same things as you. But certainly you're not arguing that you're as knowledgeable

Oh yay an entitled parent who thinks that because they made the choice to have children the rest of the world has to revolve around them.

It isn't her problem. It's her colleagues. It's not up to her to work out a solution.

They didn't say anything about snow days and you don't know that that is the issue. I have kids. And I pay for afterschool care for my kids. One of my coworkers relied on her mother for her after school care and when something came up she started leaving work every day to go pick the child up from school (about 1.5

Ugh, this is putting an unacceptable dent in my mountain of hatred for the Seahawks.

I mean, look at Michael Phelps in swimming: he was practically born to swim. Should we ban him for that?

I admit there's no easy answer that makes everyone happy. I don't know how to solve this. I just believe the way things are moving is unfair to biological females, as evidenced by an MtF trans MMA fighter able to compete at 37 years old when no female fighter has managed to do that.

Yes, I did read it all, and I know what you're saying.

Because I think it's pretty clear her past does present an unfair advantage. The 2 year HRT thing is pure nonsense. There are no studies anywhere that back that up. The in-depth study I did see said the exact opposite.

That 3-1 record, IMO, says Fox isn't that great a fighter and is coasting on the benefits of two decades of testosterone-juicing.

Actually, the fact that she's still competitive at 37 says testosterone is a HUGE advantage. Are there any other fighters in the women's brackets who are 37? If so, how many?

I want time travel to be invented for the exclusive* purpose of printing this out and shoving it in the face of the parents who brought their three (two?) year old to the late showing of Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Yes, like, two years ago. Don't tell me to get over it. I will never get over it. You know what's worse

Doesn't matter; Texas law supersedes the woman's wishes. If you are pregnant, you must be kept alive until the fetus reaches viability. Texas sees women as incubators, not human beings.

This is problematic on many levels. Many, many levels. Firstly, do we know if the fetus is viable? Severe oxygen deprivation does not only affect the mother. Also, who is paying for her medical care? I realize that this is a very crass question, but if the family/their insurance is expected to cover this, it could

I feel like Crossfit is exactly the kind of workout I'd want to do if I wanted to meet my health insurance deductible for the year in one fell swoop.

Willing to bet more married couples that don't have the same name would make use of this than unmarried roommates abusing the system.
