that’s the line that really got me! like i get the bigotry she was going for, but that statement on it’s face is just laughable. joanne, did you somehow think before trans women were incarcerated with cis women that there were no sex offenders in women’s prisons and even more did you think that there were no sexual…

What about the ending ruined it for you?

it's called being under the influence...

Tracy Morgan was part of the cast of "30 Rock" from the beginning. The premise of the show was that his character "Tracy Jordan" was being forced to join the cast of "The Girly Show." So there would not be a "watchable" time before he joined the cast.

Ok, I was quite taken aback at first by your "no hitting on women" plan. However, in the sense of determining a standardized friendly approach to social interactions in general, it is not as troublesome. Obviously for the guys taking PUA classes, I think that focusing on just development of general social skills and…

False. Three of the five studies that I cite are explicitly about gender differences in perception of sexual interest (it's even in the titles). I did not include the methodology, but I think it's clear from what I wrote that these were studies involving the assessment of interest of both men and women by both male…

You have been railing against people making generalizations throughout these comments, and yet your entire argument here is a generalization about the abilities of all people. What studies have you found that show "that nobody is able to decipher if women are interested or disinterest with any accuracy"? Can you…

@mediasaturated: The placement of punctuation with regard to quotation marks varies by country and style. For example, in American writing, the default usage tends to be is to place the punctuation inside of the quotation marks. However, in British writing, there is variance in the placement of punctuation inside or…

@AndPreciousLittleofThat: I understand that argument and believe that if true, this girl went through something truly horrible. However, no one is asking her to use "strictly objective terms" in her story or ignore her emotions, they are objecting to the use of racist terms. When I am hurt or upset, I don't revert to…

Bush is so extremely narcissistic, arrogant, and entitled that he lacks any ability to examine himself or his decisions in any real way. Watching the interview last night it finally occurred to me that Bush is this special kind of deluded where he thinks that being president absolves him of any blame because he was a…

I once brought a bottle of red wine to a small cocktail/apps kind of party hosted by the out-of-town guests of a friend of mine. They were staying at fancy apartment for the week and the place was completely white - including carpet and furniture - so they said we could only drink white wine. Now. These guests were…

Thank you so much for posting this, this is exactly what I have been going through is a particularly painful way recently. I was exceedingly thin up until senior year of college when I started to gain weight for the first time in my life. At first I was excited and joked that I was finally going through puberty and…

@Beets.Go.On is the Fat Yogini: It may not have been perfectly worded, but I don't think that psychgirl1221 was necessarily trying to put dieting on the same level as an ED. I think that the comment was more trying to show an understanding of the difficulty of the situation of having one's eating choices scrutinized…

@lms11: Whose face are we rubbing this musical in?

Who is this versus?

@Sukie in the Graveyard: Netflix this IMMEDIATELY!! It is seriously the best thing possible and it will warm your heart so immensely and make you feel so great about yourself and your possibility!

My best friend in high school introduced me to FTBYAM and had it on VHS; we actually wore the tape out watching it! So for her birthday one year while we were in college I got her a copy of the DVD. I made my boyfriend watch it one night with me and he was too sleepy to pay attention but I stayed up watching and…

@MisterMoonlight: I agree. It was great to see Letterman actually calling McCain out on that last night basically saying "if you know how to get bin Laden then why are you waiting?" And McCain got all flustered and finally had to say, well I know what first steps should be done to start to get to him. Ridiculous!

@Daear: I agree, that's what I thought when I first saw this. He has the look of 'oh yeah, another drunk chick is trying to whisper in my ear.whatevs." Definitely doesn't have the air of a 'canoodle.'

@SpottedDick: Correct me if I'm wrong, but I took that as a coming from a different understanding/usage of the word "tribes." Like, I'm pretty sure I've heard other Jewish people before casually talking about Jewish tribes. Am I wrong?
