THIS. I’m chubby and I have boobs. Putting a fucking caftan over that is NOT cute. Is a fitted shirt that hits at my hips (not my waist, not three inches below my boobs) really too much to ask, designers??

I don’t think anyone with boobs actually brags about having boobs, at least past the age of 18. By then we all know, big or small, boobs are a pain in the ass.
If going bra shopping for a well endowed girl has taught me anything it’s that nothing ever fits them properly off the rack it’s specialty store or bust.
I have the shoulders of a linebacker. Anything that fits me from the ribs up is a tent from the waist down. All I want is *gentle* tailoring, just enough to nip things in at the waist and hip but not bursting at the boobs (which aren’t really the problem - I could wear those bralettes but they’re never WIDE enough.)
FYI from a grown woman who resembles a 10yo boy (medical condition...party on) these are legitimately horrible on us skinny folk too...sure you don’t need a bra if you don’t actually have tits, but no boobs+skinny shoulders and chest+this shape of top=an old-school nun’s headgear on a toothpick. Not good.
Right?! I’m fat, and I need tailoring to showcase the good parts of my body, not tent shirts, damn it.

How is Ryan Reynolds “really weird taste in men”?
I dunno, I get that it’s annoying for guys to think this is something noteworthy, but at least the guy’s trying. And he wasn’t overtly complaining or suggesting that his wife shouldn’t be striking. Assuming that she’s a stay-at-home mom, this could be his not-terribly-eloquent way of recognizing the work she does…
“Adult roommate” is such a perfect description of my dad, if by “roommate” you also mean someone who doesn’t pay rent consistently, never cooks, cleans, or wants to go out. My dad nevers want to spend any time with his four kids, even when we’re all home. Seriously, he can’t even be bothered to watch us all open our…
I feel like a scab. (I am a scab!) I had to take all of last week off of work because my 7 month old had pneumonia (he’s recovering nicely! But he scared the shit out of me!) so I have exhausted all of my paid leave and my boss’s patience. But I’m making some donations today to Planned Parenthood, Girl Scouts and…
I have neither the ability to take off of work nor anything red in my wardrobe that fits (how???) so I shall eat lunch at a woman owned establishment, direct extra cutting sass at my male boss, be extra nice to my badass female bosses and coworker, and tell my kiddo all about how strong women are. We started already…
I am a federal employee. I will be taking the day off. I informed my supervisor and project team member ahead of time (both men) and they were supportive. Other women I spoke to feel supported by our coworkers, but are worried about the administration checking timecards to see who doesn’t come in and retaliating. They…
I have my whole day planned tomorrow.
I will be working tomorrow at the small business I run. It’s just myself and the owner, we are both deathly sick but this is a labor of love. If there are any Chicago Jezzies I would kill for a coffee and a high five during my day! WOMEN POWER.
Light are off at the Statue of Liberty, she is already getting her protest on
Tomorrow, I’ll be giving an interview to a badass female journalist about my volunteer work as an abortion clinic escort.
I would love to not work but I am the boss and my next three in command are women. We would lose our contract if at least one of us didn’t show up. That being said, proud that the problem is too many women bosses. I will be wearing red, I won’t be spending money and I will be only working the 8 hours my salary pays me…
