The competitions I would be interested in seeing this done for would be the 1988 Olympic competition between Brian Orser & Brian Boitano, this one between Tara & Michelle, and some of the ice dancing and pairs competitions where it seemed like the Russian/Soviet team always seemed to win, even when they did *not* seem…

Figure skating in person is so much better than on TV - you really see the height of the jumps & the patterns on the ice. Watching pairs in person is really like a different competition. Those women are fearless, & the height of the lifts & throws are really jaw dropping.

I’m by no mean an ice skating fan. But I took my wife to see her favorites in a post Olympic tour a couple of times. Once, in Atlanta, we got really good seats close to the ice. There were a lot of big names, champions, in the tour and I can honestly say I enjoyed it immensely it was so much better in person than on…

This is a very comforting article to read - thanks for writing it. As a 33-year old woman in a loving and committed partnership, parenting has been on my mind frequently over the last few years. While I’ve never felt drawn to have children, I’ve considered it with a much more open mind as of late and can see the…

Absolutely love it. What an admirable young woman she is. I am all for her being president...like, now. Why wait!

This kid is so poised that I’m seriously questioning my ability to be an actual adult on a day-to-day basis.

Off topic, but is anyone else finding it weird that Jezebel hasn’t mentioned the Aziz Ansari thing yet? Am I missing something? If I am, will someone please fill me in?

Apparently, being the Wokest Bae of Year has its privileges.

In all seriousness (and unrelated to this article, but sort of to your comment), pigs are extremely intelligent and friendly animals. They used to be (before the advent of factory mass-production farming) treated like family pets, just like dogs, living in homes, etc. Pigs have more manners and kindness than lots of…

Man, I can’t wait until the world passes me by and I become a clueless old person. What a great world it will be when I am genuinely befuddled by something I have said or done being offensive when I was just trying to help!

I haven;t really noticed it that much. There are some dudes who comment and are a bit clueless but they don’t seem to be in the majority of commenters to me. Are there really that many more guys than a year ago?

S5s seem to be great phones. I gave my mom my S5 when I switched over to an LG G4 and its still running strong. I replaced the battery for her and thats been the only issue with it.

Good because I’ve been trying to keep my S5 Active in good shape for as long as possible. The wife and I managed to score those from AT&T pretty much as they stopped giving away phones (They were either free or really cheap, like $100 each).
I may get a used S7 for her and continue to use my S5 until it dies, then use…

I was absolutely a vulnerable young girl

Here’s another example that hews more closely to Diana’s point, then:

Isn’t the reason reporters use allegedly so they can’t be sued for libel? I understand the frustration but the way our legal system works we have to give perpetrators their day in court

She could an amalgamation of Jay-Z and Tupac with some Eminem thrown in and I still wouldn’t listen. Sorry no, post-Trump we just can’t tolerate reality TV/ talk show abominations crossing over into a more legit realm be it politics or pop music we need to ostracize and shame that shit until it goes away.

No, it’s really not. It may be distasteful to you, but women is a noun and female is an adjective; these are distinct parts of speech and serve different purposes. You wouldn’t say men nurses and women firefighters. Or maybe you would, but you would be wrong.

I honestly don’t understand why this is still newsworthy. He’s not wrong from either a practical or scientific perspective (seriously, there’s research on this) that repeatedly discussing the rumor, even to refute it, will make it worse and lead more people to associate him with the story. He’s already said it’s not…

I applaud her— for being on the right side, for leveraging her privilege for a worthy cause, and for having the guts to be critically reflexive. No, Lean In is not perfect and has some fundamental logical flaws as other commenters have noted, but the woman shows a humility I respect and a dream for equity that is…
