I'm sorry that you are inconvenienced by your food allergies. I have some food sensitivities as well (nightshades) and it's often hard for me to avoid those foods when I eat out so on a smaller level I can relate. I disagree that restricting gluten or any other food that a parent is not fully confident is healthy is…

Stop judging people for what they eat. Here on Jezebel, it's not o.k. to judge people for eating cheese cake, but it's o.k. to judge people who restrict their diets for their own god damn personal reasons that are none of your business. If your friend's kid does fine without gluten, there is nothing for you to be…

It's my understanding that permanent discoloration of the diva cup is normal. It does not stay gleaming white forever. It's made of surgical grade silicone so there are no pores for bacteria to hide in. Any ph neutral, natural ingredient soap is perfectly adequate. If you have any silicone sex toys, throw them…

I think you need to openly confront the fact that you may be incompatible. That conversation doesn't necessarily spell the end of the relationship. You may come to some agreement or understanding. Talk about the hypothetical situation that you decide not to have children. Talk about how he would view his…

Always have sex if you really really really want to. Try this approach to losing your virginity if you want, but when the time comes, if you don't feel an incredible urge to have your vagina penetrated, don't do it. Don't do it because he travelled all this way to see you and he's super horny, do it because you want…

Be careful with people's hearts (and your own). Be clear about your expectations regarding your relationship preferably before you get naked. I hurt a friend once. I did explain my situation and told him I could not be his girlfriend. I didn't start that conversation until I was naked and he was kissing my…

I am against the death penalty for every reason that everyone here has stated. I believe that the number one priority of the law should be to keep people safe. I don't care where they put this guy or what kind of life he leads, as long as his opportunities to harm people are severely limited. Pacify him with…

Also, prosthetic teeth. Sadly, I'm not making this up. They put them on the little pageant girls to make them look like they have adult proportioned, perfectly lined up teeth.

You're way more creative than me. All my barbies ever did was have sex with each other.

I suppose if you think insisting every athlete has the same religion as you and coercing gifted athletes into striving for an unhealthy aesthetic ideal (how much a person's six pack pops out is not indicative of athletic performance) is well intentioned, then yeah, I guess. I wouldn't be surprised if Hitler truly…

I'm sorry to say it, but it sounds like you two are on different pages. Ask him straight up what he wants (it sounds like you know what you want) and if the answer is the same as last time, I think you need to close that book. Do it via whatever medium you kids are used to using these days, text, voip? or what have…

disregard this, still learning how to use a cumputor...

I find it hard to believe that he has no intention of addressing this with you. Maybe he doesn't want to do it over a text message and that was what the invite was all about? I don't know, I'm probably older than you, but if it's the start of something beautiful, maybe he wants to start it face to face. Or if he…

Oh my god, imagine if they included something about how it "both conceals and reveals" and it's "not too hot, not too cold." So, it's not too slutty, respectable while still being attractive. All those guys in the skintight/sheer shirts are totally asking for it. All those guys in the baggy shirts are letting…

I had an experience where an old flame's girlfriend phoned me, without his knowledge, and basically insisted I tell her what my intentions were, and to inform me that if I called him when I got into town (he told me he wanted to get together) that she would have to break up with him and it would be all my fault. …

I'm glad that you've come to realize a little bit more about why exactly you are not comfortable with public breast feeding (turns out it's not because you think it's like taking a shit, as you explicitly stated in your original comment.) The problem with the modesty argument is that a woman can not possibly satisfy…

I don't think you understand that if public breast feeding were banned, women would have to feed their babies in BATHROOMS (if you think that is perfectly acceptable then there is no hope for you) or they would have to seriously restrict their participation in public life (again, if you thing that is acceptable...) I…

You are certainly not alone. I wonder if my problem was that when I was starting puberty, I didn't know that girls masturbate. You hear guys making fun of each other for jerking off, it's always in a shaming way but at least they knew that it was actually a thing that guys do! So, whenever I would feel the urge and…

All good advice from the other folks, but probably stuff you already knew. I like to bring up this kind of conversation outside of being sexually engaged. If you need to know for sure, maybe saying something like "Some guys really like getting a prostate massage, and some guys are extremely turned off by the idea. …

Friendships change. You both may just want different things from the relationship and it just might not work out. A woman I once considered a best friend moved away, got married, and the phone calls just became fewer and farther between. I haven't spoken with her for many years. It was all very organic and mutual,…
