I've seen at least one here in Portland. I'd always seen the name but never really thought hard about it until now.

This topic confuses me, and no one will ever answer my questions to help me understand transgendered people.

This dude is obviously a fucking creep, and probably just radiates "DATE-RAPIST." I assume a lot of boy on "Return of Kings" are also fucking creeps and wonder what's wrong with women instead of looking at themselves first.

I've only ever been in long-term relationships and have never really dated per se. So I honestly don't understand this desperation to have sex with anyone who'll have you. Don't your tactics ever make you feel bad and lonely?

That is an issue you should seek help for. This is not everyone's circumstance, and you shouldn't shame people about an activity that you yourself have trauma over.

Sex is a natural human urge that has somehow been made into this disgusting dirty thing nasty people do. Pretending people are easily able to deny themselves an enjoyable, completely normal human activity is not only ridiculous, but medieval. People have always, and will always, want and have sex. We have the ability…

THIS. THIS THIS THIS THIS THISSSSS.

I'm so disappointed by both these shows creating couples out of their lead people. I'm not that bothered by the Nick and Jess relationship, but the show's focus on them has made the other characters unusually unfunny. But The Mindy Project....this is going to suck if they keep them together in the next season. Their…

How would you feel about a beer called "Nigger Ale?" Or "Genocide Lager?" Or "Molestation Blonde?" Those are just words...why would anyone get upset over those words being used to name beers? Sheesh.

I thought Blackfish was a terrible "documentary". There was so much appeal to emotion, and so much anecdotal evidence presented that they outweighed any facts in the film. Also, so many emotional assumptions were made about dolphins and their behaviors, and the only scientist in the film presented no real science at…

Same here! What a banal "love" story. I couldn't believe a high-functioning AI operating system had been programmed to have the most stereotypical and immature relationship behaviors. And no sympathy for Phoenix's character whatsoever...he was simply pathetic, and unlikable because of it.

Regarding the power dynamics, I completely agree with you. He had no real control over her at all. She could have chosen another doctor at any time. If her financial adviser or hair dresser came onto her like this and she proceeded to have this relationship with him, would we also still keep talking about power…

I moved to Portland, OR from Indiana. What you say is the terrible truth. My boss exemplifies your statement 100%. What those people really are are anti-science. And anti-facts. There's this weird fear of science now spreading through our country, and I just can't understand it.

As someone who works in customer service for an online company, I get shit when packages aren't delivered on time. First of all, let me just say that your customer service rep isn't the one personally delivering your goddamn package to your doorstep. We put our trust in a carrier to get it to you correctly. So when…

I would love for the KKK or a neo-Nazi group to step up and demand their "views be treated with equality and respect in America's rich rainbow of diversity." Let's see how well that goes over.

I have. I just had this argument a couple of weeks ago. He had been whining about the draft and how women didn't have to get drafted and that women should somehow be blamed for this. Completely ignoring the fact that congress made those laws, and that congress was nearly entirely made up of men at the time. MEN made…

I feel like a prude sometimes because of this same reason. I stopped watching "American Horror Story" because all of the sex really didn't expand the plot or have any real point in being there. I felt it was just a way to shock up the ratings. Same thing with "Orange is the New Black." Granted I only watched the first…

About 6 years ago, the bookstore I was working at was ordered to be open on Thanksgiving for the first time by the head office. My bosses and managers decided to ask for volunteers rather than simply schedule them to work. I volunteered, and had no problem doing so. I've never been close with my extended family, and…

White people enslaved black people and allowed racism to keep them down, even into the 20th century. Men have done the same to women and allowed sexism to keep them subjugated. But just because I am white does not mean I'm racist or the reason why African Americans still have such a hard time, and just because you're…

"...atheism or agnostic is a *lack of* belief."
