its not that autism is more common- its that we opened up the diagnosis a lot and now kids who would have in the past been called “mentally slow” or just anti-social and different are now recognized as autistic. so It seems like there are more incidences when in fact there always was this many people with Autism,…

·Also, why don’t women just leave abusive relationships?

It’s gotta change. It starts with the man in the mirror; I’ve had to change and I know I’ve got more learning to do. I look upon the backwards societies and cultures that are limiting the education by gender and I think to myself, “You idiots- your greatest renewal resource is intellectual capital, and you just cut…

We need to dispel the myth that all women who claim to have been taken hostage against their will were indeed taken hostage against their will.

Nothing justifies hurting the one you claim to love, unless the one you love is, in your value system, a semi-person who belongs to you and owes you happiness. Historically, women have been such semi-persons to men in every culture and every era.

Ok I have a legitimately hilarious (and illustrative) anecdote here. A high flying (white, male, raised in a privileged home) neurosurgeon I briefly dated (was banging) told me that being a veterinarian doesn’t pay well anymore, and it was women’s fault because they’re willing to work for lower pay. In other words,…

This is yet another reason why transparency in pay is so important. It doesn’t just allow women to negotiate higher pay, it forces those who set pay to justify biases they currently don’t have to think too much about.

Well, at least now there’s a solution to the whole “CEOs are grossly overpaid” situation: more women in executive roles!

it should be the $7.8 bill

Convenient how at the end no one mentions that this is how he talks about US. An ad full of women, and no, we’re not upset on account of our little old selves, heavens no! We’re just upset that he’s talking this way about men’s wives! Men’s sisters! Men’s DAUGHTERS!

That was one of my favorite tidbits—we really need the exact Ginsburg quote here. Not today, Satan!

Read the entire Slate piece, it is fantastically done. These women are total badasses and had absolutely zero patience for Keller. I will add that Breyer’s moment in the sun was pretty spectacular as well. (emphasis mine)

I’m black and voting for Hillary. #SorrynotSorry. I don’t find this condescending at all. Why don’t you get in government IS the right answer. I’m so tired of all these whiny people running around complaining all the politicians are in someone’s pocket or are “UNAUTHENTIC” . GO BE A POLITICIAN Then. That’s an…

By naked, I mean nude. And it’s not a “weird” childhood here. It’s normal here. And, it’s normal in a lot of places.

These assholes’ heads would explode if they realized that they want to make it a law that this man MUST use the women’s room:

Okay. Grey’s kind of broke me tonight.

I don’t know if this is Justin Chambers’ acting or if Shonda is really going to take it there and has let him in on the secret but recently I have felt like Alex Karev has caught feelings. I don’t think it would be that weird and I wouldn’t mind it tbh. I don’t like Jo anyway.
