My colleagues are mainly in Europe so they always have a giant headstart. My personal preference is a VERY different schedule. Hence all the crying in the morning.

I hate getting up early. I prefer your schedule. I have a lot of colleagues in Europe so I get an early start. I makes me cry...

You’re dog sounds cute so he is probably more boring.

Sounds like Sunday!

“ think he like sprints from place to place between holes or something insane like that.”

I have no yard. I need the makeup to hide how tired I am...It’s a smattering of tinted moisturizer and mascara applied while drinking coffee. Otherwise we are twins!

Typical schedule:

This is me. I have spent big bucks for “comfy” flats only to end the day with giant chunks ripped off the backs of my ankles with blood all over the shoes (this really happened - I was work with no back up shoes).

Every story on jez is patronizing or has some hot take. It’s been that way since inception. Why should it be different specifically for stories concerning male sexual health?

I’m not proud, but I’ve accidentally gone to the version of my apartment on the third floor instead of the fourth (were I actually live). I managed to park on the third floor of the garage and walk down the hall without noticing. I even saw a neighbor in the hall and thought, “hmmm. Never seen her. She must be new.”

Supporting marginalized people, especially trans people, is not a joke to me. I take it serious. As a gay woman, I proudly stand up for and stand with trans people. I want them to be safe, happy, protected, healthy, and respected. I just don’t think THIS is something that is a serious issue. It’s the reason people

You expect the police to.....arrest the kid? Arrest you for possessing underage porn? You would arrange for (and pay) for a counseler for an underage kid and...make him go to appointments? What if his guardian doesn’t approve? I too would be appalled, but its so unrealistic to speculate that there is some easy answer

Clearly it is because she is messed up, but who do you report it to? The police? Obviously their guardian (assuming there is a responsible adult in the picture). Worst case scenario there is no one and you delete the pics and explain to them why to never do it again. This is clearly very fucked up though.

Agree.

I don’t there is an excuse. I just think it is disingenious to compare it to sex with a child. Both can be wrong. I do think it’s harder with teens and that gray area is reflected in a scattershot approach to age of consent. There is no gray area with children. It is insane to call a 17 year old a child though.

Sex with a 17 year old is sometimes statutory rape. Depends on were you live. It’s always wrong (for adults). It is not the same as sex with a prepubesent child. Not even close. 17 year olds can serve in the military in some circumastances, but that’s not relevent. Neither is the age at which one can buy alcohol. A 20

I would. I disagree with those laws and I don’t think that an 18 year old having sex with a 17 year old is the same as a 18 year old having sex with a child. I also don’t think it should be illegal. I think teens should be able to consent to have sex with each other. None of that changes the reality of stupid laws. It

No. I am not kidding. Adults should not have sex with teens, but it’s not comparable to sex with a child. A 17 year is a sexual being. A child is not. None of that makes rape ok. None of that makes it ok for adults to have even consensual sex with teens. It’s not having sex with a child though.

A 17 year old is not a child. They may not be able to legally consent and adults should not have sex with teens. However, it’s not having sex with a child. Thay makes it sound on par with having sex with a 6 year old, and it’s not. I think people are describing it is sex because they believe it illegal by virtue of

Not sure your intention, but I just seriously injured myself rolling my eyes. I consider it a hate crime.
