People keep pointing out that nursing homes are institutions that tend to disregard the sexual agency of people. But people need to remember that marriage is an institution that tends to disregard the sexual agency of women.

The prosecution, though, has described him as “selfish,” saying that when the staff told him Donna couldn’t consent to sex, he replied “That is not a problem.”

This particular nursing facility had a frank and uncomfortable conversation with the patient’s husband, explaining that she was likely too incapacitated to truly consent to sexual activity.

Buller said staff members will testify that Henry Rayhons appeared to understand that his wife could no longer consent to sex. “You’ll hear that the defendant said, ‘That is not a problem,’ “ the prosecutor said. “… If he had stayed true to his word, we wouldn’t be here today.”

I never understood spouses who sit there while their SO treats people like this. If my wife ever treated someone with disrespect I'd throw down a tip and let her know I was leaving and if she wanted a ride home she'd better join me. I also know that if I were to ever be the jerk, that she'd do the exact same thing…

He was, unsurprisingly, with a much younger trophy date.

I was being wheeled into what was basically an emergency C, knowing I would be intubated and unconscious for an unknown length of time afterward and I was yelling at my doctor, “DON’T FORGET TO DO MY TUBAL!” So, I definitely get it.

No age is not truly nothing but a number. The body ages, no matter how much we like to pretend it doesn’t, and it’s absolutely not meant to support a pregnancy of any kind at 65 much less quadruplets. She’s put her health at great risk, the health of the babies at great risk, and she will be lucky if she even lives to…

Not really, once you look at the studies comparing siblings raised together, but not fed the same way. Your kids are probably just fine, and hers likely won't be, but not because of how they're fed. I just think it's important not to lump breastfeeding in with all the things that are *necessary* to bring up healthy…

It would certainly be a burden to put the raising of four children onto someone that didn’t have them, didn’t want them, and didn’t sign up for them. This whole thing lacks foresight.

What’s the point of getting old if you can’t spend all your time day drinking, lady lunching, and definitely not changing the diapers of four newborns?

I’m not slut-shaming, I am doctor shaming. This is incredibly dangerous, ludicrous, and unfair to the quads that she will give birth to. This woman will be 83 when they graduate from high school, assuming she lives that long. Is she going to put the burden of raising these children on her other grown children, in case…

If Betsey Johnson can still do perfect cartwheels at 72, age is truly nothing but a number.

“The female bod” didn't exactly make this one happen by itself. I hope everyone comes out of this reasonably healthy and well. Feminism shouldn't mean we have to applaud medically risky choices.

A flight attendant once moved me WITHOUT asking my permission to a middle seat so a family could sit together. I just got to my seat when I boarded and there was someone else sitting there. When I pointed it out he told me that the flight attendant said it was OK. I threw a shit fit - they had plenty of fucking time…

Thanks. Sorry if I scared you. We were talking the other night and she's finally lost all her steroid weight and her skin has cleared up, she's rolling with a super cute asymmetric bob and she looks wonderful.

Oh, it grows back (on your chin and upper lip).

my cousin had to deal with this all the time. her ex-husband raped her and she got pregnant (but its not rape because they were married, am i right guys?) even though she pressed assault charges and everything he’s clearly a fit parent and should be raising a child, obvs.
they had joint custody. the kid is 11 now - and…

Offer me a free upgrade to first class and I would gladly move . . .
