I want to wear the attitude of the woman in the drapey green dress.

Pretty nice for the 80s! I was thinking, what are you doin here, girl?
Yes, I just don't get it, because while it makes me happy in that I feel good about myself it's not a fun thing to share like weird graffiti I saw on the street or a beautiful park I'd never been to before. I'd even rather see food than someone's gym pictures.
Same here. In some ways the fitness Facebook friends motivated me to go to the gym because they make it look so fun with their cute little neon work out gear. But sometimes I get the feeling that they get too much validation from Facebook. It's like if no one is applauding your diet and exercise it doesn't count...
That is really awful. I can't imagine having to dealing with that every day. I've only had mild creepiness, nothing anyone meant to do. Family owned businesses, on top of being small, just breed that "Oh that's just John" mentality because everyone's used to his issues and loves him, they think everyone else should.…
"That she did not is telling." Is it, though? This is a shitty economy. It's not easy to allege sexual harassment in this or any other scenario but especially this one. So she tells him or HR, assuming there is an HR in a small dentist's office, let's say there is, but it's his practice for chrissakes. He's not going…
Only three sexual partners by 28? Fuck. I'm double that by 24. Seriously though, the moment I stopped giving a shit about my number and realized that no one in the larger world really knows, or necessarily cares about my sex life, I became a much happier person. Life is short. Be slutty.
And it means giving oral or getting because I didn't see that specified. How is giving oral less slutty? I thought women were more shamed for doing something they didn't *get* anything out of, because "Oh, that slut just wants approval from men and she's do anything..." I think that's wrong, believe me, I do, but I…
I meant that I barely see a crease or bump indicating where the butt is, lol.
Good point. I hate to get into it, but whenever I say to someone "Well, you chose to have a baby" they say furthering the human race is a great gift to mankind and I should be happy they're willing to do the work, harumph! Altogether, I'm not sure why we even have to compare all the time. I think the media wants to…
It's not really about one individual drinking more than another individual. You said women tend not to get wasted. Women who drink the same amount as men might get "gone" faster because of body weight but I don't know what world you're living in where both don't get gone at some point in the night in around the same…
I hear ya. People say I'm small two but my butt is not, not really big but definitely not so small that I could ever attempt to wear those shorts. I'm the same age and I rarely find good shorts either. Too high waisted or they're small as underwear. Just give me some good old fashioned just below the belly button jean…
The women above don't really have buttcheeks to show so part of your problem is solved right there: Just don't have buttcheeks! Now I and the other 97 percent of the female population will go sit in a corner...
No, I don't think it's a smug mommy comment. I really do get why people have kids, and thought about qualifying what I said but I wanted to be snide in response to what I thought was a needlessly mean comment about people without kids.
Yeah, it seems to vary pretty widely. I still don't believe her sometimes but whenever I've asked my mother how childbirth was, she shrugs her shoulders and says "Eh, it wasn't that hard." She was 37 at the time. One isolated case, just like the author's, but I still fear a ridiculously long and arduous childbirth if…
Yes, yes, yes. I've had a pixie and it ROCKED. I sometimes long for it again. As you said, it's also a nice way to filter out assholes who love traditional gender roles, not that it filters out all of them.
You eloquently express what I was hoping to say. I don't disagree that mothering is hard work. It's such hard work that I wouldn't want to do it unless I was 110 percent willing. But when people use the word "job" I think it's meant to say "Hey women, don't worry about doing paid work because the most esteemed thing…
Ugh, he would get some serious Facebook ranting from me. I don't care, I will be that obnoxious feminist who trolls your status.
Childless blowhards—Does this always have to happen when we talk about motherhood? If a person has to have their body torn in half and tolerate blooded tits, I would call it "childfree" but that's another conversation.
Just because it's socially acceptable doesn't mean it's an awesome thing to do. In China it's clearly socially acceptable to consider 25 year old women old worthless crones. I won't pile on too much but I agree with the others here. I'm 24 and open to dating older men but I don't like the type of older man that won't…
