Listened to an hour-long interview with her and the longer she spoke, the more she sounded like an absolute quack. On soundbites alone, her love “just heal it with spirituality” schtick is interesting, and she’s not not-smart, but she sounds like my aunt who enjoys weaving on a miniature loom and won’t stop talking…

“Are we going to be given the chance to grow and better ourselves, and even possibly make amends?” Umm, sure, how much longer should we wait for these “fine people” who made “one mistake” to make these amends?

“We didn’t mean to exclude you, we just happened to get together, oh and while we hung out we made a bunch of decisions, here they are.” Like we don’t get exactly what happened and that it was very intentional, especially in smaller groups.

You know what, I think men WOULD touch other men in this way if it wasn’t seen as weak/effeminate/GAYYYYY or some other manifestation of toxic masculinity. Men can show that affection to women, and women show that affection to women, because women are a safe space for showing tenderness and emotion. I’ve seen and…

You don’t have to word it formally. You’ll want to try and be as descriptive as possible using plain language, add information or links for context of what you’re looking for would look like, and ask for the underlying/supporting data. It helps to know how each government agency functions so you know where to direct…

I’m not socially inept but I hate being fussed over, so here’s my go-to, which produces results and doesn’t make anyone feel bad: “hey I usually love everything and this sandwich looked amazing but just didn’t work for me. Could I get the soup instead please?” This ensures you get the food you want without impugning…

Or, do commit it but then don’t continue to live a suspiciously lavish lifestyle on national TV, thereby arousing suspicion. 

Really REALLY wish someone had said this to me before my wedding because boy howdy, people had thoughts. 

They still make it in white which worries me because it’s also deeply discounted right now and I’m wondering if they’re going to discontinue them: https://www.newbalance.com/pd/the-shockingly-unshocking-bra/WBT3108.html?dwvar_WBT3108_color=White#color=White&size=42DD

The name is a feature, not a bug. By saying the quiet part loud and doing the crimes in the open and/or on Twitter, it all looks legit. 

You can see from a lot of the women commenting here that this isn’t an unpopular concept at all, so maybe the women you’re seeing are afraid to bring it up because it goes against expectations but they’d really like having their own space? 

Meh. If it was so easy to google and then apply your google learnings, more people would be good at intimacy and relationships in general. More than that, once your relationship settles, making intimacy a priority in a relationship can be difficult and I feel like an intimacy coach is a like a personal trainer for…

IDK man, I was with my ex through his residency and fellowship and there was a LOT of it although for us mostly in the parking lot because for a huge hospital, all the nooks and crannies were always locked. 

Yes to all that. Nobody came here to talk about your unique experience!

Men are SO FUCKING BORING it’s not even funny. 

Oh yes. It’s bad when a less-informed member of the public is commenting in academic talks but it’s sooooo much worse when it’s another academic? PhD pissing contests.

Counterpoint: medical staff hooking up in the hospital is true for just about every hospital. 

A personal favorite is the “Hi my name is John and I don’t have a question, it’s more of a comment and...” followed by 3 minutes of self-referential drivel.
