Thank you for this summary of the article.

I cleaned the gutters. Nature is ruining my roof, y'all.

This "Cheetos dust all over the couch" analogy is how I will describe climate change to my future potential spawn. "Now, imagine your mouth is a coal factory..."

Oh god. Does this mean matte makeup is coming back too? I will die.

Or you could really stick it to 'em and make them cook up their own damn soup.

Your argument that "men are just assholes who don't care and want to get out of chores" only perpetuates this "status quo protection" of which you complain.

THIS. Every time I read an article about a study that starts with this minuscule number of participants, I know I should just skip it and save myself the headache...but I'm apparently a rubbernecker who loves a metaphorical car crash as much as the next guy.

I've heard it theorized that women have a better sense of smell and taste (generally) than men just for this "poisoning" reason. Women were the ones preparing the food and doing the cleaning, so we needed to evolve those senses in order to protect from contamination and disease.

Just stop being so damn hysterical about everything, right?

My shrink has been a bit leery of prescribing to me since we started sleeping together.

Ooh, lady date. Wanna go drunk-shopping? I hear Nordstrom's having a sale. We can get that kid down the block to babysit.

As long as I can keep my white zin.

Your poor mother.

I'm not normally one for slippery slope arguments, but YES to all of this.

Ahem, my pubic outlet assumes nothing other than I'm getting laid tonight.

Or...prevent them? We'll just put all the over-30 women on the sides of highways, and when they spot an impending accident, they'll step between the cars and save the day!

I'd rather it was some plebeian from CUNY or some other "lesser" school. It'd make the dumping sooooo much more satisfying. Got any gals like that?

You probably know all women over 30 are desperate and pathetic, amiright?

Really? The only thing I recall being defended was her notion that it's harder to date after to college, since you don't have such a large pool to choose from. Most of what I remember is heavy snark and mocking.
