I am married to a man, so I desperately wish I were wrong. I love my husband. He is not disgusting. But he is rare, I think. And even he acknowledges that he had his borderline disgusting moments when he was younger (like, early 20s) bc he thought that if he liked a woman she should automatically like him back. He…

oh, no, they’re not that simple. They know better. What they are is privileged enough to get away with it, and society backs this up. If there were actual consequences for this type of shit, I bet they’d magically smarten up right quick.

I mean, GET A GRIP. It’s not “romantic” to do that to a colleague, its desperate and sad. I know workplace romances happen, but “you have to put up with me until one of us leaves” is a threat.

Between this and reading about the harassment that female Jeopardy contestants experience, on top of my best friend being sexually harassed by her boss, I am now convinced that men are mostly disgusting.

My fave Bea Arthur story is the one told by Rufus Wainwright - he told Bea she reminded him of his grandmother and she leaned in and said “I’m not your fucking grandmother”

I have been married for 11 years, and I got married really young (I was almost 24), so my perspective on this is a little weird and obviously colored by my experience. However, it is shocking to me as I watch my friends get married that their lives DO become super closed off. I’m like...um? Suddenly they can’t hang…

Just popping in to say YES THIS.

Am I the only person left on earth who loves Leo? I love him. I do! I think he’s a great actor and I think that people project a lot onto him sometimes. I thought he was great in The Revenant, but I consider this his make up Oscar for Wolf of Wall Street, which is probs my favorite Leo performance.

Oh that song hit me DIRECTLY in the feels. My dad didn’t leave when I was 6, but he is an alcoholic and addict and we have been estranged for many years, and last time he got in touch was right after I got my second degree. My husband also restored my faith in men and even though we’re not having kids I know he’d be a…

Go fuck yourself, Ted Cruz. That’s really all I have to say.

Ugh. I know my mom powdered my baby bits when I was little (they call it BABY POWDER for fuck’s sake), and when I got older I would powder down there after shaving to prevent razor burn. I also used to use it when I was getting chronic yeast infections, because keeping it dry prevented the horrible itching.…

I find it more creepy that they had to find a virgin, tbh.

1/3 of women have had an abortion in their lifetime. That’s a LOT. We have let these assholes control the narrative for too long. Besides voting and yelling on the internet, I don’t know what else to do. I have been debating on writing a public piece about my abortion (which was fairly recent) because I feel like its…

oh my god, Ewan in Moulin Rouge is everything. He carried that whole movie on his back. I melt every time I watch this part.

This whole situation is impossibly sad, and the truth of the matter is that there is no way of telling how many female artists have been in this situation. I believe Kesha’s story, it doesn’t even seem that far fetched in this post-Cosby world, but legally she is fucked. Proving rape after the fact with no DNA…

This filled me with so much joy. I teared up but it mostly made me feel happy. What an amazing woman at 106! I hope to have that much energy and exuberance like...now.

I struggled with the decision more than I thought, but I realize now that those hormones were making me a hot hot hot mess. I was having daily anxiety attacks, and I mean more than one daily. And then I had the procedure and felt physically better almost immediately, not to mention nearly hysterical with relief, only…

OH MY GOD YES. I thought I was going insane. Completely insane. I was a mess. Thanks for bringing this up - it shouldn’t discourage anyone from doing it, but be prepared for it regardless. It does pass.

Thank you for sharing your story.

Not that I have EVER used an illegal drug in my life, but if I did, I could maybe tell you that the only thing that keeps my first 2 days of period from feeling like someone is putting my uterus in a paper shredder made of fire is a little bit of pot. And even then I might still have to take 4 ibuprofen and turn a…
