I think asking an anxious new parent if they “have the guts” to take on a challenging parenting technique is, by definition, being an asshole. The only adequate response to any pediatrician who asks such a thing is, “No. I’m a pussy. Now show me some empirical evidence of what is best for my child.”

I think you get to have opinions on vaccinations considering that affects everyone.

It might be good or bad for the baby, but either way you get more sleep. Attending their cries might be good or bad for the baby, but either way you get less sleep. Seems like a pretty clear-cut choice.

Hell, worst case scenario CPS takes away the baby, and then you can get much more sleep.

I should also take this opportunity to say, to the assholes who are so fond of telling women, "We're not mind-readers! If you don't like something a guy is doing, it's up to you to tell him!": Dudes, if it's obvious to an entire group of blind-drunk women that a stranger is uncomfortable, then it should be obvious…

I was on a cruise with my wife, and we had a beach party excursion in Cozumel. She was laying on the beach while I was in the water chatting with these lovely people I met. This guy came up to me, drunk, and put his arm around me and kept trying to feel me up. The one woman I was talking to, who was closest to me, put…

Bachelorette parties will forever have a special place in my heart. The first time I ever went to a real club (alone and with a male friend), this guy kept creeping over and grinding on me, uninvited. I wasn't yet the elbow-throwing feminist menace I am today, so I didn't know what to do other than sort of awkwardly…

If only there had been a good guy with a chair, this could have been prevented.

"I don't understand why women just don't TELL men they aren't interested."

You MONSTER.

Is that sexist, or strengthist? I always have to reach for tall things, I don’t think it’s because I’m male, but because I’m tall.

Aw, Boo. Next time that happens, just console yourself with the fact that your are statistically more likely to make more money, have more power, and be given more respect than your female colleagues in almost every workplace in almost every country on the planet.

Well, I guess if Sherri from accounting ran him over, she wouldn't get charged with murder then? Since she clearly couldn't have been the one driving? ;-)

I’m a guy so this isn’t sexism that was directed at me, but sexism I witnessed. Long story short, my boss’s boss (who is a woman) and I were working on a project that involved local police. This led to several meetings with local law enforcement. I can’t count how many times they would noticeable direct their…

Always remember: HR is NOT your friend. They are there to protect the company from you and the guilty party rarely pays. I've known of ONE instance where a man was fired for sexually harassing a subordinate. And if she hadn't been a top seller and had documentation of incidences (and witnesses), she probably would…

I’m a dude who works in the IT field, so I see this shit all the goddamn time. My Mom is an IT project manager and has been dealing with this shit for years.

I accompanied my sister to look at houses, male realtors always asked what her husband did or whether he was away on business. Finally I told my sis that the next time that happened she had to look them square in the eye and yell “Bitch, I’m a doctor. This will be my house.” Then we would walk out. We did walk out of…

Oh shit yes MissAndry. I was attending a meeting of a bunch of senior people at another organization’s office on behalf of my male boss. A dude from the office where we were meeting asked me for a coffee. How the fuck do I know where you keep the coffee in your own damn office? I sat there in shock until his (female)…

Whenever I submit maintenance requests to my apartment superintendent (I’m always the one doing that, never the boyfriend, because he doesn’t want to bother them), the super never responds to me. He goes straight to my boyfriend. The last time I complained about this, because I never hear back from him and don’t know…

I don’t think I’ve experienced the kind of soft sexism where I’m denied an opportunity or position because of my gender. Until my current job, all my bosses were female, and my current boss is a very chill dude who I have never had issues with. I negotiated my salary when I was offered my job and he did meet almost…

I am a youngish unmarried, childless woman. I work with a lot of married, childful men. Almost every single one of them works very late because they don’t want to deal with their kids or their wife. I used to think they were just busy, but they waste a ton of time during the day. So, if I want to leave when I finish…
