I like how you don't seem to get that bossy completely *is* a gendered thing. While the word itself, "bossy," is ungendered, its widespread use and therefore its ultimate meaning are gendered. Falling back on an ungendered dictionary definition is lazy (and incorrect). It's easy to say, as some assholes already have,…

I am glad to see I am not the only one who read that and went "WTF"? Instant turn off, no?
I'm not really a wedding person, so it's hard for me to picture, but I think if I wanted one I'd rather have bigot-prepared food and bigot-sold flowers in a bigot-owned hall rather than concede that everyone else could have a formal wedding but that I would have to settle for getting married in my backyard and serving…
She also referred to her other children as her "whole" kids
Her "Whole" kids?!?
You're totally right. She should probably just rub coconut oil on that shit and hope for the best. #homeopathyforthewin #womenbeparanoid
Google is your friend.
Wow, do you know what the BRCA test is??? If you test positive you have a VASTLY increased chance of getting breast and ovarian cancer than people who do not. This is not "paranoia." Ovarian cancer is pretty much deadly and there is virtually NO WAY of screening for it, so waiting until you actually have it when you…
Do you have BRCA1+ or BRCA2+? Have you lost every woman in your family, before they turned 60 because they died of breast or ovarian cancer? Were you told at 20 that, if you made it to 40 your lifetime change of contracting breast cancer was in the high 80th percentile, or that overian cancer, after the age of 45 was…
Actually, if you test positive for the BRCA1 gene and have incredibly elevated chances of getting breast and ovarian cancer, surgery is prudent and certainly "good medicine." Especially if you are over 35 and have children already (if you want them in the first place, and she clearly falls into that category). Also,…
Her mother died of cancer and as the article states, she has a much-higher-than-normal chance of also developing cancer. Call her paranoid, but she made a conscious informed decision to minimize her risk as much as possible.
Wha? She saw her mother die of ovarian cancer. She has a comparatively high risk of having the cancer herself and she has kids she doesn't want to leave motherless. I think she has a greater awareness of cancer than most. And I think your anger is misplaced.
This isn't just random. She had an 87% chance of developing breast cancer and a 50% chance of developing ovarian cancer. After a discussion with her doctor and presumably her family, she decided that the risks of surgery were more acceptable than the risks of cancer.
He's a pompous, disrespectful blowhard who countenances spying and bullies guests. She a racist shit-stirrer who thinks she's advancing feminism by trolling and throwing other women she doesn't like under the bus, and then asking for dudebro points for being so "edgy" and "an equal opportunity offender". So I come…
I spent seven years teaching in the public school system in Madrid and these kids were out and out racist (and had clearly picked it up from their parents). Spanish children would refuse to sit next to dark-skinned children in class, would refuse to read lines in books that were voiced by an African or Asian…
Because they're too white to know any better.
Why do white people insist on doing this?
