Lovelace bios are riddled with this very problem. Ascribing her work to other people, deeming her uppity, etc. This is not the first, and will probably not be the last case of this, though it is worth pointing out books on her to avoid.

depends on the day. In between the complaining mommy blogs and Pinterest lies your average mom I'd say. I think the anti-perfection backlash, while entertaining sometimes, has gotten overblown and stale for the most part.

How about we work on defining religious freedom. In that it means you can't make other people abide by the beliefs of your religion in any way shape or form. The end. Next they will try to ban women from using their money to purchase shit they don't approve of because "hey, you earned it working for me."

Mr. Misfit went to a comedy club one night that I felt like staying in and when he got back he told me about overhearing a guy instruct the bartender to make one drink stronger than the other. Thinking of that makes me sick to my stomach, I can't help but think that someone was raped that night. This shit is real,…

I love how she rolls her eyes and flips her pretty hair throughout the entire video. She should have stuck with the shortened original:

Wouldn't her slyly- and cynically-suggested self-imposed reduction in alcohol consumption be a much more oppressive and unfortunate kind of girls' nights out behavior modification? In other words, if feminists ought to be worried that women are having to modify their behavior, surely having to limit their legal…

This is such bullshit and conflicts with the message sent to women about preventing their own assaults. You can't basically tell women they are responsible for acting in such a manner so as to prevent their own rape, then yell at them that they're being "too scared" or "too cautious." You can't have it both fucking…

AEI - Women being concerned about the unlikely probability that they are drugged is a bad thing.

Dear Fancy: I am much too cool and special to buy gifts off the registry like a normal person. How do I demonstrate to the newlyweds/new parents how much better I am than all their other friends without completely pissing them off?

I get where the first letter writer is coming from but honestly, just probably stick to the registry. I had visions of unique and personal heartfelt gifts until a bunch of my close friends started having babies and they were in like, sleepwalk/take care of logistics/keep baby alive mode for the first few months. If…

WHY ARE THESE ANSWERS SOOOOOOOOOOOO LONG?

As a parent, please, please, go off the registry or include a receipt for whatever you buy. I got three hundred pat the bunnies and hungry caterpillars and they were not on my list. I am really not ungrateful, but I hate the idea of someone wasting money for items I already possess in bulk. If you know the person…

Shailene Woodley was born in 1991. Thomas Jane was born in 1969.

Gosh, you must have never ever second guessed yourself ever in your whole life. It must be fabulous being you.

I so feel you.

It doesn't mean she didn't know it beforehand, it means she was now questioning WHY she married someone with those qualities. I had those thoughts a LOT the first year or so of marriage (we'd lived together for 4 years before we got married), and I would be SHOCKED if he didn't think that about me at least once a day.

I thought the point was that she did know that, but before the wedding she focused on the great things she knew about because of all the anticipation and excitement, and then after the wedding she focused on all the crappy things.

I'm sorry but am I reading this correctly? A MEDICAL PROFESSIONAL advised her that milk would come out OF HER ARMPITS??!! This issue has now jumped the shark and I think we can all go home because we're clearly done here.

I can't help but feel that most of the guys I meet in these circumstances, remain in these circumstances because of abnormally high (and hypocritical) standards. I have a friend who's never been in a relationship because, despite being obese himself, he seems to only like very skinny women. If this guy isn't going to…

You don't know that with certainty. Someone with the proper permits would never shoot her? That's overly simplistic thinking. One can obey some laws and not others. I think she was brave to even consider speaking. She has had her life threatened many times and continues to advocate.
