My mom teaches small children and occasionally uses a Count Von Count puppet (from Sesame Street) when working with math/numbers. She does the voice, the accent, the whole nine yards; the kids love it.

This whole discussion is so gross.

There is such a more supportive way to say that you found parenting easier than people describe.

Like people tell me that raising a teenage girl is hellish and I am truly enjoying the fuck out of it. My particular daughter is not challenging to me in ways I'm not prepared to handle.…

So... what you're saying is that survey design matters?

Just in case people miss the satire: She's not actually advocating banning all men, she's making an absurd suggestion to counteract the absurd suggestion that if teh womenz would just stop slutting it up and get married there would be an end to violence and sexual assault.

It reminds me of the Residential Schools for Native children in Canada- an attempt at cultural genocide- where they also did medical and nutritional experiments on children in additional to every kind of abuse imaginable. As much as I blame the Catholic church for this bullshit, it really is part of a larger pattern…

I read reactions by Catholics upset that, "again," the press is "going after them." They say that these work camps were the only place that offered the pregnant women any help, so, I guess, we should be grateful. It's like the ostracization the women suffered in their own communities had nothing to do with church…

Let's call it what it really was, a concentration camp for unwed mothers and their children. I do hope we've learned something from this and make sure it never, ever happens again.

Well context, control, and intent are important. I would posit that things like Neo-Burlesque, where the female performers are in charge of their sexuality and intentionally breaking down barriers over what is considered "sexy," is a political, feminist act. These women strip down with a wink and a nod, and…

Rihanna DELIBERATELY showed skin to:

1) Counteract the idea that female nudity is obscene and worthy of censorship. When she got banned from instagram her response was to continue to push the envelope by uploading more tit pics. And when she finally deactivated she started flaunting her nips all over the place.

2) She…

I know you're being rhetorical, but can I vote anyway? It's both! No matter how you dress, you're not going to avoid people projecting your sexuality and personality onto your clothes and self-presentation. So you might as well dress however the fuck you want to.

Ugh! I'm rolling my fucking eyes. Strippers have appropriate work attire too. Why is the standard for "work attire" always business attire?

My 50-something pot-smoking pretend-hippie parents were all over this book a few years ago—way ahead of the Goopster. It was pretty embarrassing/ridiculous filling up a glass from the 5 gallon water jug — a jug which my father had in black sharpie scrawled "PEACE" and "LOVE" backwards on, so the water could "read" it.…

It's a textbook case of affluenza.

This is now a hilarious joke I want to play on my siblings with my nieces/nephews.

C'mon, brah. We deserve better trolls. Up your game.

When I was in high school and a man pushed his boner against my ass in a crowded train, I said nothing because I was so confused and flustered and I wasn't really sure that what I thought was happening was actually happening. But when I was in my 20s and it happened again and by then I knew the way world worked and I…
