Why not use these examples to try and start a dialogue? I feel like this article is so saturated in snark (and believe me, I get why) that it wouldn't be useful to anyone who doesn't understand what feminism is. I guess I feel like this sort of article is preaching to the choir, when there are clearly a lot of women

I was simply pointing out that there is a big difference between what you've described and posting content on Facebook/Twitter. It's not an apples-to-apples comparison by any means. Facebook isn't exploiting contributors, B/R is.

"I post junk on WordPress and Facebook and Twitter. None of them pay me."

Part of the problem seems to be that they essentially prepaid people's salaries instead of just paying them for the work completed. Who gives someone $35,000 upfront without any guarantee of the work being completed?

I wonder, "What is the end game here?" Do they think that I'm going to turn around and say, "Thank you, good sir, I'm deeply touched; I, too, find myself delicious on this crisp summer morning" or chase after their car waving my phone number at them?

^ THIS.

To me, it's something you're doing together, as a couple, and it's a decision that should be made together as a couple.

"First, she says, her younger brother asked how Chris felt being emasculated."

Her younger brother sounds like a great guy.

Thank you for posting this. I've never understood what "continuing my legacy" even means, but I definitely know that it's a terrible reason to have children.

I agree. Her comments alone reveal a total lack of common sense.

"Why is he putting me through this? What the hell am I supposed to do?"

I agree, the low success rate implies his approach is not working with her. I also think he's trying to initiate too often. Nearly every single day? However, I think their marriage would be better served by her having a frank discussion with him about his approach and letting him know what she wants rather than her

Seems they are both really poor at communication. Husband is obviously a prick for sending this spreadsheet, wife could communicate her feelings to him like an adult instead of posting this online.

Good question, this is something I've never understood either.

Habit isn't technically fast food. It's "fast casual", which means the locations are in strip-mall or attached to other buildings as opposed to being standalone. They don't have drive through's, and their prices are a bit higher. It's like Chipotle except they sell burgers.

This does seem made up to me. I know that experiences are very subjective, so my experience may differ, but I live in a very urban area with a lot of dining options and this doesn't reflect what I see. My wife and I frequently eat out and I rarely see people on their phones or taking photos of their food. I also dine

People are quick to judge but they likely won't understand the situation unless they've gone through it themselves. My wife lost her job in 2008 and was out of work for several months. She was the primary income earner in our household so we sold nearly all of our "nice" things to make ends meet. However, we did keep

This is a common problem on the internet. People trying way too hard to be funny and clever.

The $27k figure is pre-taxes.

Only if the person viewing has a profound misunderstanding of Feminism.

Is it cool for women to call themselves "bitches" now? Has that word been reclaimed or something?
