Arguing that an underage victim was in control and shares responsibility for her own rape ought to be grounds for a dangerousness hearing when he is due to be released, just like arguing that molestation was done out of love for children and that a prepubescent victim behaved seductively can earn it for a pedophile. …

The side-eye after "Laticia" was so perfect!

I'd tell them your daughter was traumatized by the thought that her vulva was for people to step on.

Ironically, she can learn all day long at school already about Saturn and Venus and distant planets that for all intents and purposes will never be real to her

I don't understand it either. I get that people have hangups about sex, but the anatomical terms - penis, vagina, etc. - seem more medical than sexy to me, leaving me even more confused about what the problem is.

*slow clap* last spring my then 4 yo came home from pre-K and informed me she was told by another student "Boys have mountains, girls have sidewalks." Aside from the obvious WTFery on those terms, I reminded her that in our house, we use the terms penis and vagina/vulva (trying really hard to get both of those in…

to me cutsy names like wee wee and hoo haa or vajay jay sound way more obscene than penis and vagina, which are fairly clinical words.

We've always used the proper terms with our kiddo (I'm a biologist, I'm not going to call it a wee-wee or a hoo-haa or whatever). She was then told by other kids she was saying "bad words." Her teacher started to tell her not to say those and she proudly said "My mommy says those are the right words and not to use…

"This is not a new idea, or even a "me" idea, it's a researched and thoroughly supported idea by experts."

Dodai DB!

In my single days, I think I purposely date down in looks because I wanted a smart man. I really sold myself short. I ended up with handsome, intelligent, kind, giving in bed, affectionate. Just look for someone who makes you happy and fuck all this dating up and down noise.

I thought she claimed the surgeons weren't able to create her a third nipple? So she had one tattooed on…

No they do not. There are countries where women can't get it. There are countries where they can but it is made very, very difficult for them. There are women right here in America who are ignorant about their choices because they attended religious schools or public schools with abstinence education programs that…

that is an astonishingly ignorant statement.

One of the characters on Boardwalk Empire talks about douching with Lysol in an attempt to prevent pregnancy. I was like "WTF? Did women really do that back then?" and learned that yes, they really did. Yikes!

I was surprised it didn't mention Lysol.

I normally hate denim on denim, but JLo looks so gorgeous that I ain't even mad.
