Also, just a guess, but I bet that most women who apply for special ops don’t weigh 130 pounds. I mean, the average weight of women is about 166 pounds, and those that are ALREADY in the armed services are probably bigger and stronger than that. (Source for weight:

I blame dislexia and poor spell check on Kinja

Definately right! If dudes can insist on comic book accuracey, ladies, we have to stand up for book accuracy. #nopantsTarzan

Well, you can’t be a powerful woman AND be attractive. That’s like, power rules of women #1.

Not to judge a book by his cover, but he has dumbass written all over his face.

My liberal husband and brother in law want him to loose the Republican nomination, and then win as an independent candidate in order to “break up the two party system”. They honestly believe that he won’t be actually able to do much harm in four years in office, he won’t get re-elected, and then we can basically start…

This is a really good point. Thanks for your perspective, and I agree that motherhood should not be a privilege only afforded to the wealthy.

Most things in Black Mass were terrible. I couldn’t get into the story of terrible people being terrible. I was also distracted by Johnny Depp’s bad blue eyed contacts. He looked like one of the elves from Lord of the Rings.

As I am plus size and my business partner is standard, having inclusive line that DID NOT COST MORE FOR PLUS PEOPLE was really important to me. So we made the decision to eat the extra cost every…

This is also my problem. My employer is an international company, with offices in Canada, Australia, Europe, and Asia. Because its mandated by the governments over seas, my counterparts get a ton of paid leave. I get 6 weeks at 56% paid by the state of California (not the company) because the company only chooses to…
