Seriously? I cracked up watching it. A little harsher maybe than her usual, but I thought it was spot-on.

"This is Top Chef, not Top Scallop!"
Hm.
I mean, the only issues is how deception can be damaging to a relationship—even though it might be in everyone's best interest, as you suggest—and that even if the husbands* are being safe, they're still exposing their wives to a much higher likelihood of disease. Not to mention that even if husbands are only seeing…
After reading several threads about how people who used to have sex very frequently are now struggling to find a place for it in their relationships, it seemed pretty jarring to then read something that was clearly taking pride in not experiencing that. (Kind of like an article that leads to lots of comments where…
Yeah, and didn't you comment on something else and say you were 20 years old? As someone who's also in my early 20s, I figured it would go without saying that I would acknowledge that sex drives ebb and flow—particularly as relationships stretch for decades and careers intensify.
Yeah, the "When you're on your period, I'm banging the neighbor next door" example is extreme, but I want to hear more about how non-monogamy among couples with different sex drives can play out in a healthy way in a relationship. The, "Give me more sex, or I will have to go elsewhere to get sex" ultimatum sounds…
Huh. The version of events I see the most frequently is that the more sexual person is shut down pretty callously, made to feel foolish or as though their desires are petty. You're right that no one is ever owed sex. But you do owe your partner respect and understanding—something that doesn't really go hand-in-hand…
I mean, to be fair, I can't think of many white women that all Jezzies consider to be worthy of respect. A conflicted/cantankerous group are we.
The founder of CollegeHumor is, like, the writer of Bro Rape, right? (Am I wrong in associating those two things as happening at the same time?)
Absolutely! I think it's because I associate things like that with a—probably unjust—idea that she sees people in tough spots and thinks things like, "So she wants to see more of her kid than just an hour after getting home from work at 9? So why doesn't she, like, not work so late?" or "Wow, I really don't know why…
Is "sleep pizza" different from that meal where you drink to excess, go to bed, then wake up with a half-eaten meal in your bed and no memory of putting it there? (If it is, what should we call that? Cuddle pizza? Pizza spooning?)
I mean, she could have been referring to "bottomless brunches," that famous meal where we eat waffles without pants. It's seminude spectacle that's all the rage in Brooklyn lately. (In my apartment.)
I mean, the trolls themselves suck, and I guess the site could do more. But I'm kind of blaming a lot of the Jez commenters for seeming to be unable to restrain themselves from jumping on every asshole clearly trying to just get a rise out of the readership. If we could just leave trolls in the grays, we'd be having a…
Someone bumped him. Which, we need to fucking stop that shit.
That is because he is a very obvious troll.
I don't know; I kind of feel like it might be worthwhile for someone to lecture the people who continue to respond to posters who are obviously just trying to rile things up.
I've spent my time taking shots at the obvious people who deserve it. I got bored with having this site become a place where anyone looking for attention knew they could show up and get a rise out of all Jezzies in the vicinity.
Just wait until commenters—like, say, you—reply to the defensive justifications, thereby promoting them and bringing them to the top of the discussion heap?
Can you really say that science and social studies are most vital, without justification or explanation? I'd say that courses where students learn skills, rather than content, are always most important—and the skills of reading and writing are the most important of all.
