So just ignore it! Whenever you come into public, you're going to draw some attention. There are a lot of pitiful men out there. Wretches. They havent adjusted well to the loss of male power, so they try to strike back by scaring women. and I cant believe that any woman is even admitting she might be scared. That is…

Yup. The other day I saw a street fashion shot with a thin pretty twenty-something woman who was wearing jean-overalls and sneakers. When you're thin and in NY it's FASHION, if you're above a size two and anywhere else it's a crime against fashion. Funny how that works.

The last thing I want to do is give this giant and troubling waste of our goddamn time the acknowledgment that is clearly so desperately craved. But the fact that I must suppress my pride and bring attention to this in a plea for support from my own employer makes it all the more ridiculous.

do you know if there is anything people can do to help? Like a tampon/pad charity? If only there were a Toms Shoes of tampons...

You'd think some of the money they save short changing women on salaries could go to free tampons for all.

I always find it humorous when people don't realize that the government has always monitored its citizens. How do you think they were able to find union organizers, communists, and birth control advocates? There is a reason that the absolute right to privacy isn't written into the Constitution.

I'm glad to hear from someone who actually beta-tested it. I was wondering how it would work with babies - I know my kids couldn't even tolerate the paper ID tags they have to wear at the hospital.

yes, I can see the appeal. My daughter projectile vomits ( she is four months old) and I am so afraid of her choking like she did in the hospital.

As a parent who brought home a preemie after an extended NICU stay, my fears of him stopping breathing in the night were compounded by weeks of data showing that he had a habit of stopping breathing in the night. And sometimes his heart would stop, too. That all sorted out before they let him go home, but I do…

This will be a great product for parents with infants that have serious medical problems.

I was going to say the same. There is no way an average baby could ever need this, but this could be more comfortable than the current home monitoring options for a baby with heart problems or a preemie straight out of the NICU for example.

Seems like overkill but I imagine it would be brilliant if your baby had known health problems.

I wouldn't, but I know people who would. Technophiles and gadget/gear junkies.

The main thing that gets me about strict AP'ers like this is, humans in prehistoric times lived in large multi-family bands where childcare was shared. So... what part of having only two people involved in the kids' lives seems normal, natural, rational, or sane to them? It is HEALTHY for kids to have relationships…

It's a matter of reforming, clarifying and enforcing child labor laws. These shows get away with this because they claim to be documentaries. The children aren't "performing," they're just being filmed. But in reality, of course, they are performing. The state of Pennsylvania tried to argue this about John and Kate +…

Or, at the very least, they're mortified that they're going to be on television with everyone seeing it.

Nah, these are the people who think they are so special that their methods need to be on TV. Most of us are just trying to through the day and not screw up too badly. For instance, the body positive people - not sure what that would involve unless it is code for nudity. I don't talk about diets, weight, etc with my…

but at least one of those problems won't be "You propped me up on a tv show about how fucking crazy you are. "

Honestly, I don't think it should be legal for children to be on reality shows. It is a hell of an invasion of privacy and it does not constitute a "normal" environment for their development, and most important of all, they cannot consent to it. They are being exploited by their attention-whore, money-grabbing parents…

Obviously, sex ed for ninth graders requires a fairly light touch. But parents can always opt their kids out of the class. (If you want your kids learning from YouPorn instead of a textbook, that is.)
