I've always hated that people don't take binge eating disorder seriously—since all fat people are weak, it must be that they just have no self control, not that they actually have a serious condition (obviously I understand that not all binge eaters are large, but many are.) When I was in treatment for another ED, I…

Obviously this means that sperm are pre-people, and we need to legislate against masturbation and non-reproductive sex to preserve their rights.

Honestly, I wouldn't complain if things like excessive video game playing vs. reading/play dates/playing outside were discussed. Obviously teenagers can make their own choices, but if one parent is dropping an 8 year old in front of an xbox instead of engaging and encouraging them I don't think it's so terrible to…

Thank you. I went to a small liberal arts college because it had a great department in my area and I worked my ass off and received decent scholarships. Not all kids at private schools are whiny brats whose Mommy and Daddy are paying for everything so they can smoke weed and skip class.

Well, I don't sweeten mine at all (and I don't think a regular cappuccino is, anyway), and they still call it that at the Starbucks I go to the most. Maybe that location is just weird?

Yea, I hated it when Starbucks started using "skinny" for anything non-fat. My drink of choice is a non-fat cappuccino, and when I would order it they would correct me. "You mean skinny cappuccino?" No, I mean non-fat milk, whoever forces the Baristas to use that term.

If I had not received in patient care for my eating disorder in college, I never would have been able to move past its control over my life and become the happy and (somewhat) successful individual I am now. It's terrible that in this day and age, with so much science backing that psychological disorders are just as…

I was just thinking the same thing.

36DD here, and I highly recommend Vanity Fair bras. They have the right combination of support, coverage, and pretty details. There are a lot of different styles (full coverage, contour, demi-cup,) and I've found that if you treat them right they last a very long time. They're usually in the $30-40 range, but keep an…

Yes, because the thing we should take away from this story is that people who disagree with you suck.

Aw, you shouldn't! The city can be intimidating as far as stylish/beautiful people go, since a huge population means there are lots of them, but that also means that there are even more average plain old people too (especially if you don't live in Manhattan or the trendy parts of Brooklyn.)

If I'm running late I'll do my makeup on the subway, but you have to be careful what you do. Foundation, blush, and eyeshadow are pretty easy to apply well when the train is moving, just make sure to put on eyeliner and mascara when the train is in the station.

I think some of this is regional, too. I work at an advocacy group in New York City that also has an office in Albany. The women in my office almost always wear heels, makeup, have our nails done, etc. The women in the Albany office tend to wear less makeup, more flats, pants instead of skirts, etc. I don't think they…

Yea, I feel terrible about liking the Pianist—I think it's one of the best films about the Holocaust, and Adrien Brody's performance is phenomenal. I saw it when it came out and I was in high school and didn't know about his disgusting crime yet, but now I feel very very conflicted about my thoughts on the movie.

I usually hate when people complain about spoilers, but COME ON Jezebel! It's been less than 24 hours, and some of us had to work late last night and DVRd all the NBC premiers. Can't you at least give us til Saturday before putting a big ass spoiler in the title?

I've volunteered a number of times at the Planned Parenthood in the Bronx, which last summer was the focus of one of those ridiculous "Summer of Mercy" tours so there was a big crowd of them. They know they can't do anything to the girls, so they go after you instead—trying to grab at you, screaming at you about how…

I'm another Vary Pale Person like Dictator, and the stretchmarks I have are also practically invisible unless you get up pretty close. I'm lucky that I only have a few on my belly from a long ago weight gain now lost. They were visible when I first got them, but once they faded out they've been very hard to see...I…

While it is true that men continue to produce sperm their entire lives, the quality of the sperm/semen DOES go down after the age of 40. They are finding more and more that there is a higher rate of genetic abnormalities among children of older fathers, and that the actual mobility of the sperm (which has a lot to do…

Yea, when I went to see Munich, someone brought a baby. A movie about terrorism and Mossad retribution is not exactly Kid friendly (lots of explosions, gun fire, etc.)
