That's when she's on vacation from her bevy of whacked-out cleanses, natch.

It is because I am a feminist that I feel the need to tell you that your comment is a startling work of condescending jackassery. If Stefani's mom stayed home to school her, that's her own damn choice as a woman and you needn't belittle it or her.

I think the problem with undereducated, underwhelming teachers in public schools has to do with the fact that teacher salaries are low, their work hours are very long (including the summers), and they take a lot of shit from administrators who are cow-towing to political pressure and budget slashing. It's no surprise…

true, though it doesn't help with the whole nostril business. Maybe a wall-mounted tissue dispenser is in order.

I'm with the conductress on this one. Religious institutions seem to have no problem with accepting tax breaks and/or public funding, so they can deal with public-funding oriented laws. If they want to have the option of opting out of providing insurance policies that cover synthetic hormones, then they can damn well…

that is so meta.

If she is, it's entirely separate from what Chris Brown did to her. Subs are the ones who control S&M encounters, which is what makes it a completely different scenario from an abuse encounter. I doubt there was a safe word in that car, so what she does in her sex life has no bearing on an incident of domestic…

Oh for serious. Her and that damn website she rode in on.

Actually, the number of women who have posted to twitter that Rhianna was asking for it, or was somehow responsible for it, or that they'd like CB to beat them, and all of that crap are out there for girls and women to read as well. Not liking CB because he beat up his girlfriend and then fake-repented to keep his…

I stand corrected; that said, have you ever stood up in front of a classroom to essentially perform for 75 minutes in front of a student who is submitting sexually explicit writing about you for their homework? That is what I was referring to, since I could see it compromising one's ability to teach on their A-game. …

I still think there should be a little tiny mirror right under that very inspiring message in case one has spinach in their teeth or a bat in the cave. Pragmatism, babies!

clearly you have never had to stand up at the front of a classroom, if you think that it's just oversensitivity and use of a double standard on the part of the teacher. I can't imagine trying to run a classroom with a student that overtly lascivious ogling me the entire time.

I don't think it's Jolie's fault that the press cares more about talking to her than to the folks she hangs out with on UNHCR trips. All the interviews I've seen/read of her promoting her movie tend to be her trying to talk about the conflict, and people asking her if she and Brad are having another baby. That…

From @Remi's mouth the the Ballot Box. As long as everyone who thinks this shit is crazy actually votes in November, then there might be a chance we won't be swearing in President Batshit Conservative in a year's time.

So she should walk the carpet with the people whose causes she champions, yes? I submit to you that the amount of money spent on flying a few child soldiers from Sudan or some impoverished women from Afghanistan to LA to walk a red carpet with her (like a couple of props, natch) would be much better spent helping them…

I'm sure she gets equally pissed about the amount of taxpayer money that goes toward helmets, body armor and inoculations. And yes, think of the seals; a used gym sock full of fresh dog shit would get the job done even better.

Well, I for one think that testicle-gyrating is destroying this country, so good on them for calling it out. Get right with Underpants America!!!

Yeah, the gallows humor always helps. Your first post made me think of a parent's long, miserable and ultimately unsuccessful battle with a particularly vicious cancer. It totally sucks, man. I'm really sorry you're going through it.

I keep telling myself that as long as they don't evolve opposable thumbs, we'll all be safe.

I'm going to go out on a limb and suggest that skinny models are not part of the Homosexual Agenda. I can see the objectification of women's bodies all over the fashion industry, but I doubt that sexual orientation has anything to do with it.
