send them to Canada or Europe! Date rape still happens, of course, but Greek life is nonexistent.

It is always really, really clear when surge is in effect - just keep that in mind and you shouldn't get burned. :)

The best thing about being a future-parent and living in England - babies at the pub (not bars, mind you)! And also dogs at the pub! I think it's a great space for mums to get together, for dads to take the wee ones (quality time AND a pint? SOLD!) and the pub culture really helps to minimize the isolation that new…

Finally. The perfect pen for all of those mansplanations.

Don't give up - he needs your guidance and actual facts. Books, docs, comics - throw everything you got at him.

I didn't realize - I will get a notepad and pen.

Calling Alaska basic is one of the most baffling things I have ever seen anyone do. If you must, call her terrible, call her talentless, call her busted - but Alaska is NOT basic. Sheesh.

This was my very, very favourite as an 8 year old. We lived beside a 100 year old church cemetery and I would creep around the graves whispering "Helen?" until I freaked myself out too badly and had to RUN home. Like, panicked, terror run. Until a few days later when I would do it again.

99% of women are going to find it annoying. We're pestered all the time in public- I honestly don't think there is a good way to do it. Even if you take social cues and back off, chances are that we're spending the rear if the ride worrying that you're going to try something further.

This is a profoundly stupid conflation.

I'm pretty sure that it is in her book.

I struggle with this - I am PhD student of Dark Heritage in London, and a tour guide. I have written papers about the misogyny inherent in the JTR tours, but, after a guide left our company recently, here I am doing those tours. They are deeply problematic, and I often feel very conflicted about my role in the…

I never saw any pink tuk-tuks, but when I lived in Mumbai there was a fledgling taxi company that only employed very butch, all-business female drivers. It was double the price of a normal taxi and I regularly paid it without hesitation.

May I cast a vote for Sweyn Forkbeard II?

My rules for pho restaurants are: the dirtier the better, plastic tables and chairs are good signs and there should be a TV on (loudly). These three combined? An indication of some damn good pho.

My PhD dissertation is on this topic (focusing on Vancouver) - I would be more than happy to write something for Jezebel!

It is definitely happening in Vancouver. Over half of my close friends and many more acquaintances - that I know of - have been raped.

Please don't forget the Downtown Eastside, where women are raped and murdered with alarming regularity and are met with a blase attitude by law enforcement, media and government, even…

This is the stock image being used by most media outlets, and is one of the top images when you search for War Machine on google. So. Mark is not trying to "get all the commenters on here fired up."

My family had a firm "no ketchup" rule, not for any health reasons, but because all of the adults in the house thought it was the equivalent of pouring corn syrup all over your food. Now that I am a 'grown-up,' I 99% agree with them - but, McDonald's fries doused in vinegar and dipped in ketchup is a guilty pleasure.

I…

I live in constant fear that I am going to absentmindedly insert a second tampon when the first is still in (while using a mere 'regular' on very heavy days this is a possibility) and then when I next change, only remove one because I am only expecting one string.

This happened to my mum's BFF, and her new boyfriend…
