Totally. My mom thinks I was one of the first victims of cyber-bullying in our school district (she was a schoolteacher at the time, and hadn't heard of it happening before my case). That was only over email... I can't imagine what would have happened if social media had been around.

Yeah same here. When you're a kid, school is your life, and you're forced to go every single day and face these people who are physically and verbally abusing you. You have absolutely zero control over the matter - even escaping to a new school doesn't mean the bullying won't follow (kids have friends everywhere).

I think that was great. Instead of an ad where they prance around as objects without voices, they were allowed to be silly and break the fourth wall. It's humanizing and pretty refreshing.

Oh man - not sure how to even react. I was brutally bullied as a kid and thought about taking my life every single day. I had suicide notes hidden all over my room just in case I actually went through with it. The only difference between this kid and someone else is follow-through.

Meh - can't help but think it's probably a good thing that people are having children older, and are thus having less of them. Though funds for social services might be a bit strapped, it's probably best to just move the world's population around at this point, rather than add to it significantly.

Aw, that was nice. She seemed really nervous, but that kind of made it more powerful because it forces you to humanize someone who is consistently and constantly objectified (as part of her job).

Yeah! She was supposed to be a glorified background character I guess - sit in the office, but without anyone really talking to her. I'm so glad that they reevaluated.

Not a great version but here's part of the story.

Yeah! They tell the story at the Paley Center. I'll look for it and post it!

I love this woman. Did you guys know that she wasn't met to have a speaking role? When the show first began, they were getting used to the set, and the director asked Amy to take various people around and pretend like she was showing them around the office. When she got to "Donna's" seat, she said saw a leaf on the…

Yeah - I don't know if I would. These kids were pretty young and some of them still are. When you have hormones and undeveloped reasoning skills, I feel as if you can be too easily influenced by a media environment that adores your "attacker." I feel as if it's sexist to say that girls would be taken advantage of, and…

I agree with you. If this was a situation involving young women, we'd all be up in arms. This hypocrisy is slightly ridiculous.

Aw, thank you for telling your story.

Surprisingly, most of the women I know who are married, asked their spouses. I wonder if it's not that women aren't asking, but rather that couples aren't really talking about it.

I think the difference is that we are incredibly consistent about when we pull out. In five years, he hasn't missed once - I am actually about 98% certain that we've had a perfect rate of withdrawal (the man has a lot of self control).

Clarisonic all the way. I was having a huge issue with acne, and got one of those babies and it all cleared up. It seems kind of crazy (it's basically a buffer for your face), but it made me really clean my face well, and gets out dirt that you really can't remove with just a washcloth.

Meh, I've been using it with my boyfriend for five years without even so much as a scare. Although, I do now secretly worry that I'm infertile...

I remember when Will and Kate came to Canada after their wedding, everyone pretended like it wasn't a big deal/was annoying, but then they would talk to me about it for hours on end (I'm living in the States right now).

Yeah, your situation is true but the reverse does happen. If you asked me five years ago, I would have adamantly denied that I ever wanted spawn, but now, I really do want them. I agree that it's wrong to always assume that women will change their minds, but there are women who do.

I think that you're right, but I've also been toying with another idea: You're an adult when a kid thinks you are one. Concepts of adulthood are all relative anyway.
