The term is "child-free". "Childless" just sounds so...judgey.

I can't stand people like that who think their children are more important than anyone in the world. My husband uses a wheelchair and we tried to avoid strollers as much as possible because it's a huge pain in the arse. Wheelchairs ALWAYS come first. And hasn't she ever heard of an Ergo? Those child backpacks were…

About four months ago, I was on a packed bus when a lady with an SUV sized stroller tried to get on. There were two power chairs in the reserved area already, and she just lost it..." Can't you ask them to get off? I have a stroller!". I couldn't even.

Methinks we have found a troll.

Good reason to ban parents from everywhere.

Yeah, that whole "I'm a mother and so I am stressed and I am taking it out on you" thing is pretty shitty. I've had bosses pull that on me and I was always deeply unimpressed.

I feel like that's very understanding of you, but at the same time, I don't think that children being a pain (children you chose to have, I might add) means adults can take it out on the rest of humanity, particularly those humans who are already employed in low-paying service-sector jobs that require them to deal…

It doesn't matter how stressed a mother (or father) is at their kids, it is never ever acceptable to yell and scream at someone providing you a service. It's bullying, plain and simple, and when kids watch their parents doing it to other people then they might think it's acceptable for them to do in life as well.*

No. Nope. Sorry.

I know Kate willingly signed up for this life, but she still gets mad props for coming out like that the day after giving birth. I didn't even leave the room. All I wanted was food, pain meds and the lovely, lovely ice packs.

It's an interesting contrast to American celebrities who usually wait to "lose the baby weight" before being seen in public. Catherine looks gorgeous, obviously, but she still has the fluid retention and a bit of pregnancy weight from having been pregnant up until about 24 hours ago, etc...It's refreshing to see that…

I can't speak for the general American public, but for myself, I'm just fucking happy to see something positive and life-affirming in the news. I don't even like babies, but I will click on 100 articles about the royal baby because I just need some nice news to read about. I have also clicked on about 500 articles…

I will say this for Kate Middleton - if I had to get dressed in actual human clothes and take my newborn out to a screaming throng of people and reporters merely 24 hours after giving birth, I'd just be crying into a pint of ice cream. Shit, I don't think I even managed pants for the first two weeks. She is a brave…

I bet it's killing Kris Jenner and Kim Kardashian that they couldn't debut America's Baby this way. No way Kanye could be that gracious with the media.

If Amanda were felled by an illness like Crohn's disease or migraines, it wouldn't be such a source of fascination and joking. Mental illness, though, is ok to laugh at because "OMG CRAZY." I hope for a day when there's no stigma attached to mental illness.

This just in: human beings are complicated creatures!

Coming to the conclusion that you are an atheist (at least, for someone like me with a background in science) is much the same as coming to the conclusion that evolution exists. For me, the minuscule probability that there is a higher power isn't enough to outweigh the overwhelming volume of evidence (from…

THIS. Also, living in the Bible Belt makes me angry on a daily basis. I'm angry that people here by and large do not see the difference between their religion and government, and have no desire to separate the two. The default assumption is that everyone is devout, and if others get any inkling whatsoever you are not,…

Yes, Athiesm happens at all income levels, all races, in all countries and social circumstances. The same thing that leads someone to a "Come to Jesus" moment could lead another person to a "See ya Jesus" moment. But there is definitely a classist element to many of the low-blow swipes against religion. When people…

I'm not saying that this article isn't called for, but I would also ADORE it if someone wrote an article entitled "How to be Religious Without Being a Dick".
