I am well aware that their music is sort of comfort food-y and not radically inventive…but I really like them! There are multitude of current day emo-y bands that don't do it for me but for whatever reason they are distinct to me. Don't see the need to shit on them when the point of the article is basically "these…

That seems about right to me which is why I like Jessa the least. Instead of being flawed because they have no self awareness (something that can be gained) she is awful like a sociopath who cannot change because that's just who she is. I relate to horrible things Marnie and Hannah do because they feel like amped up…

That's a nice rational way of looking at it. I want to be open minded but tend to react with a knee jerk eye roll when these kind of new categories pop up. They might seem silly to me but if they help people feel less alone because they know how have a like-minded group to identify with, that's not a bad thing. We do…

Yeah, I got what he was trying to say but to say "sex is smarter" can start sounding like "any urge you have is uncontrollable" which I'm sure is not what he meant. I think he was trying our a new flowery way of just saying "monogamy isn't natural" because at the root of it that's what he believes. He really doesn't…

That kind of grossed me out a little like….does he not realize that the kind of flirty/ego strokey/subservient niceness associated with Hooters is actually not natural for most women? Perhaps because he doesn't go the restaurant for the part of the package he doesn't notice but it's pretty pretty clueless (bordering…

I will say that one predominately female field where you don't have to put on that kind of vibe is a librarian. If you're even kinda nice people are impressed! I basically knew I could never wait tables (Hooters or otherwise) because I cannot turn on that kind of chipper friendliness basically ever. I can be upbeat…

I knew someone who who's daughter worked at Hooter's and she said those tights had to be purchased directly from the company and cost like $14 which offended me…you gotta where those awful things that likely get runs all the time AND pay a premium for them?

But that's the tradeoff, right? You make more money at Hooters because you are explicitly being objectified as part of the job. And that's fine, some women like it, some women are neutral about it, but there's something to be said that a woman might do that job for the extra money not because she is is comfortable…

I mean…the trays are not underneath the dancers's butts or anything. Do you think like pussy juice is squirting across the place because in that case, you might have to worry about it in the drinks as well. I've never eaten at a strip club (although a strip club I went to in Portland shared a bathroom with a Mexican…

I drove through Waco recently and saw the (now closed) Twin Peaks where the shoot out happened! I was weirdly excited about it.

There WAS a Tallywackers (I believe the only location was in Dallas, where I live) but it closed. It was in the gayborhood so they were trying to appeal to men and women, which I thought was interesting. When I went our waiter started out wearing shorty shorts and a tight shirt but at one point he came back to the…

I feel like it wasn't always a total breastaurant. I went many years ago and just thought it was BBQ with waitresses in tank tops and jean shorts (not that unusual at just any restaurant.) But they must have started leaning into it more because I went back and the shorts were shorter and the girls were all wearing…

I have always been surprised by the food at Twin Peaks, it's usually pretty good! I also think their outfits are way cuter (I'm a woman and not really going for the T&A angle) with the little khaki shorts and buffalo plaid shirt tied at the waist (although it seems like most of the times I've gone they're wearing…

Pansexual is probably the most accurate but it also makes me think of 30 Rock (my all time favorite show that is sometimes a little sex negative) when they are describing Jenna's partner Paul as a "gender dysmorphic bi-genitalia pansexual" so it also makes me laugh!

Agreed. I would be wary. There's a lot about yourself that you learn in your first few relationships that I'd prefer to have out of the way but of course plenty of people manage to make it through those growing pains together. But really, other than my first girlfriend, most everyone I've dated had a million tons of…

It's interesting because you never really hear women called pigs unless you'are talking about their weight but gay guys will call each other and themselves fuckpigs, dick pigs, etc. And, from what I gather, it's kind of like being hungry/greedy for sex/dicks to a notable degree (in the way a pig would be hungry/greedy…

I sort wonder about this myself, in that I'm attracted to men and women, trans and cis, but also genderqueer or gender-nonconforming people so "bi" feels limiting and also, for whatever reason (biphobia and bi erasure, I suppose) "bi" sounds corny and like a relic from the 90's. But I also feel awkward adopting…

That's exactly what my best friend did- she just happened to meet her ideal mate in college when she was 18- but they didn't live together until a few years after college and still didn't actually get married until she was 30. Being cautious made a lot of sense to me since neither of us ever thought when we were…

I have mostly been neutral towards Valentine's Day but for whatever reason, the one that really made me depressed was when I was 25…quarter life crisis I suppose! While I had been in relationships, none of them were healthy, and at that time I was single (and miserable in other facets of life, didn't like where I…

To each their own. I always prefer to "fuck first" (as in before dinner, every time I have sex) because after dinner I'm full and don't want to jostle my belly/get pounded/get deep throated. And if I'm full, I'm also sleepy. Also also, if it's a special occasion involving drinking, I'd also like to have a nice buzz on…
