I am totally getting my $100 wedding dress from modcloth. Wouldn't have it any other way. Also, my skin is so generally pink and ruddy that wearing white makes me glow in really bad way, like the back of my carpenter uncle's neck in the middle of August.

I just realized that I was totally asking permission.

Oh but I am so scared of the impending freak out! I am trying to minimize the drama, which is kind of like swimming upstream with her.

Okay so I am actually having a similar issue. My wedding is an ambiguous way away due to immigration stuff, but I am starting to do some planning.

My friends in the UK remain shocked we don't have an ERA...even more shocked when I tell them it's mostly due to one women and her fear of unisex bathrooms.

No we didn't! But I wish we had. I was really lucky to end up in a super progressive program so I had a semester while I was taking women's lit/womens's history concurrently! I don't know how I would have gotten through high school otherwise!

Hahahaha oh man. What an unfortunate mix up!

Thank you!

I wonder if there is a copy of it somewhere in the mom archives. It's show time, ladies!

So my name IRL is Phyllis (something I once struggled with and then learned to embrace in my teen years). While in a woman's lit class in high school, reading the "Heidi Chronicals," we were tasked with writing a play about a female activist. Ever contrary, and obsessed with other women named Phyllis, I picked Phyllis…

Rhode Island googled Woody Allen the most because the creep was here filming a movie all summer. I drove past him when he was filming at a cafe in my neighborhood and he looked like just like a slimy, white, cave-dwelling worm. He was squatting, and he was all the same sickly-pale color. I basically had to whisper to…

Hey! Tell me how it works- I wonder it's a similar experience as my BF has.

no problem! I will try to remember to post. I don't comment a lot on here (or really, anywhere), but thanks for the follow!

Yes! We have a great story about Greyfriar's Kirkyard in Edinburgh.

I showed my boyfriend this, who has this (to him, unfortunate, to me, coveted) ability to "sense" ghosts. He is a staunch British atheist, and refuses to talk about it with anyone except me, but has had one too many "sensings" to rationalize at this point. Anyway, beyond the moving figure, he swears there is a flash…

Sometimes it's for legit reasons. My ex had an adult circumcision becaise his foreskin was too tight and it made sex painful for him.

What's that?

So I just want to affirm empowerment through self identifying as fat thing. I have an 8 year old niece, and I've made it a point to refer to myself as fat in front if her over the years, in an effort to remove the stigma from the word. It usually goes like this:

It's actually amazing-great breakfast food.

That sucks! I work in the nonprofit human service world and feel really bad for those like you, who have been placed at agencies which don't have the capacity to really support Corps members. The trade off on the living allowance stipend, and essentially free labor for the org, is that they are supposed to be…
