What you don’t get is that going to the doctor isn’t supposed to be an “experience”. People who want “experiences” go to spas.

People who want optimal medicare care go to the doctor prepared and with the knowledge that they, as a patient, have a job to do just as much as the doctor does. Unless you’re unconcious or…

Actually, the only I got from the passage is that she indirectly was blaming the doctor’s “cold” beside manner for the medical issues she had with her pregnancy. Sorry, it’s not the man’s fault that the baby had complications. He did what he was supposed to do: save the baby and save her life.

You’re right, the man was horrible. He should have provided a livingroom pool, some kittens, soothing music, a masseuse and a Cosmo to calm her down.

I’m not saying that they should accept ANY treatment. I’m saying that from what the author described, there was nothing wrong with his bedside manner.

Just because a doctor focuses on your health needs instead of catering to your emotional baggage doesn’t mean that they have a terrible bedside manner.

It’s a two way street. You’re going there asking for their help. The LEAST you can do is make it as easy as possible for the person to help you.

See, this is why I’m not a doctor because it becomes really really difficult to let the insults slide and help people (for anything, let alone pregnancy) who are just rotten little ingrates.

When my baby began to die during my labor, within seven minutes of the fetal monitor indicating her distress, he had me stretched out on an operating table and delivered of a healthy newborn. Still, my friends kept talking about their beautiful experiences in birthing centers, in pools in their own living rooms, the…

Or better yet, stop lecturing other countries who want to have nuclear weapons as well. There is no reason that the US and Israel should be an exception to the disarmament rule. Either everyone does it or nobody does it.

Overall, Becker and Polsky estimate that insured women saved $1.4 billion in costs relating just to the pill.

The money scene 8 years ago, coming just off the heels of Citizens United, is not the money scene today.

Yes, I am implying that Clinton is the one who actively contributed to making elections so expensive. Why? Because she publicly set as her goal to raise more money than ALL candidates combined did in the last presidential election. If that’s really her goal, then that speaks volumes for what she and her campaign…

The first source doesn’t say what you say it does and the second conveniently has “un-named sources” talking to the Washington Post.

It’s not a made up scandal when the woman is famous for sending out her people to say that she wants to raise a 2 billion fucking dollars, more than twice what the entire election cost both candidates the last time around.

If there’s no excuse for being lazy, then maybe you should ask your curly haired white friends why they go to black hairdressers that know how to deal with that type of hair, dumbass. It’s a specialty for a reason - because not many people know how to do it right.

This a difference between a swimsuit and a PERSON. For starters, all you need to teach yourself to be a better clothing designer is a mannequin and pattern books. However if you don’t have black people as clients, you’re never going to learn how to do black hair from just reading a book.

So there’s no issue of POC being under-represented in the modeling world, then? Thanks for clearing that up.

False.

Here’s the thing: if you say that Paul is no longer part of the pioneer generation of black supermodels, then you can’t also argue that black people aren’t represented enough in elite fashion runways.

Here’s the thing, if you’re going to allow healthcare providers like pharmacists to have (religious) objections that prevent them from doing their job, you’re going to have people like this ahole who also want to be included in that.

If what you’re saying is true, then Paul is even bigger douchebag for blaming make-up artists - who make a pittance compared to her - for what is fashion house problem in regards to their make-up line contracts.
