I liked Alice, but her powers started to severely annoy me towards the end. They were just so ILLOGICAL and deus ex machina -esque!

I didn't get it either. I found it kind of creepy and certainly not endearing, but then I think kissing is actually something quite intimate that I wouldn't want to just randomly do with a stranger in front of a camera, unless when acting (which of course ultimately is what they did anyway - acting, that is). Meh, I…

I was kind of neutral about Lena Dunham...until I read this article. It really mentions absolutely every racist, cliched thing anyone has ever said about Japan without ANY self-awareness whatsoever. Just...arrrrgh.

What about her article on her Japan trip? It's so awfully racist that I actually can't even finish reading it. I had to stop at the bit where she looks at a Japanese taxi driver in his uniform and decides it would be impossible to have a hot sexy affair (as portrayed in the movie Japanese Story) with a Japanese man…

Yes, agreed! I seem to remember Kaling saying that the Tamra character wasn't meant to be a regular, so I think it's fair that she started out as one-dimensional (if you look at the white guys Mindy has dated you will see that plenty of them are pretty cliched as well, that's kind of part of the rom-com in-jokes the…

Making a sheep joke about New Zealand. How super original.

PS - she may be masturbating, who knows? Sex can be plenty enjoyable without sleeping with a man/having penetrative sex.

But my point is that plenty of women who have heard the anti-sex speech end up having as much sex as possible in an attempt to escape their restrictive past. I guess I'm just tired of people trying to find a "reason" for why she decides to remain a virgin for now. Just, let her be, ya know.

Try 35 year old. I don't think it should be a "who has it worse" style contest though to be honest - I already got horrified stares from non-virgins at age 19, so age is relative when it comes to this issue!

But, so what? Many women who have been abused or were brought up with religious restrictions act out the other way and become hypersexual/promiscuous. Why do we celebrate hypersexuality as "freeing" and abstinence as repressive? Why can't we just be ok with whatever a woman chooses to do or not do and not put…

I have been laughed at by a female gyno when I said I am a (late 20s) virgin. Just...not cool.

As a 35-year-old virgin I can tell you that you HAVE to constantly explain yourself to others, whether you want to or not, because people treat you as this bizarre freak who must have something wrong with her. I love reading articles such as these because they make me feel less of a freak, simple as that. It is good…

I found it severely uncomfortable, but maybe that's because I'm a prude and consider a kiss to be something intimate and special (unless you are wasted...then it's just what you do because you're horny and don't quite know what you're doing).

You might want to read up on female anatomy!

I'm almost finished with Divergent and still waiting for it to grip me the way the Hunger Games books did. The heroine is so....bland. And the love scenes read like they were written by a 15-year-old! How old was the author when she wrote the book? Her narrative seems immature to me. I also don't get the whole faction…

You know what's even more depressing? I read Twilight due to a recommendation I got from a SCHOLAR on children's lit! It was at a conference on YA lit and she raved about how great Twilight is. I think the only reason I kept reading the books was because I was desperately hoping for Bella to ditch both Edward and…

I don't know...is it really that "indie" though? I mean, it's being marketed to death and pretty much all my fb friends are simply DYING to see this movie because they, like, totes lurrve the book omgee the best thing EVAH! I guess I am cynical because I thought the book was already overhyped (the dialogue was…

HAES has just as much science on their side as fat shamers...oh, I mean, concerned people like you who need to police fat people constantly...sorry for that little slip of the tongue! If you knew anything about HAES, you would know that. I suggest reading up on HAES before you make uninformed comments like that. The…

Because 40 is, like, so totally super duper old, like.

And if you don't end up having cancer you will probably die of heart disease! OR just, you know, death, cos, try as we might, it'll hit all of us one fine day.
