For a second there, I panicked because 11g carbs would be quite a lot. Then, I saw the "m" next to the "g." Phew.

Same goes for nerdy boys, actually. I've been the "starter girl" for plenty of them: date me, gain confidence and skillz, leave me for some hot lady. Doesn't mean that I assume all of them are out to get me.

No one objectifies me, but assholes *do* question my cred at every turn. You can't tell me what does or doesn't happen to me. It's my lived experience. Deal with it.

Man, are geeky boys really that paranoid that hipster girls are after them? LOL. If she's a hipster, you don't have date her. Simple as that.

Skeptics = buzzkills, dontcha know (;

I totally read it! It's pretty amazing.

My cousin and I used to fight over it.

I usually say something along the lines of, "So, has that ever worked for you, harassing women on the street? Ever gotten laid because of it?" They usually get confused/flustered and I get to walk away grinning.

It's called the halo effect.

In my Muslim household, I was forbidden to wear even a stitch of make-up. Wearing it felt empowering, and after a few years of horrible clownishness, I eventually got good at it and wanted to show it off and have fun with it. However, for a while, I stopped wearing make-up even though I wanted to because of all the…

I never believed in Santa nor did I ever pretend to because I grew up a Muslim. My parents told me that "those people" (i.e. Christian and Christian-flavored Americans) straight up lied to their kids about Santa and the Easter Bunny. My five-year-old self was so appalled at the idea that my kindergarten classmates…
