Muffin-tops really result from ill-fitting low-rise pants... so whether or not a woman has a muffin top depends on what she's wearing. I'm glad to see low-rise jeans going out of style for exactly this reason, personally. That said, this particular pin-up does have a soft tummy— click the source to see more…

The plus-size models we celebrate always have more-or-less flat tummies, don't they? It's never a woman with a muffin-top.

I frequently have this conversation with my bff, as we're both in our 40s, and don't have children by choice. When someone decides to have children, they are following the path that society has defined as meaningful. It's ready made for them. For those of us who choose not to have children, we have to find our own…

Time Magazine is basically physical clickbait, anyway. And they really, really dumb it down for American readers...

It's crazy. It's like OTHER STUFF BESIDES KIDS.

As an infertile woman I always found these articles very bothersome. There's an assumption that any woman can get pregnant at any time with no effort, and man if that's you I am seriously jealouse. Ten percent of all couples are in the trenches of infertility. Just because someone doesn't have children doesn't…

I have kids and I almost never post photos of my kids...yet I'm constantly posting photos!

I have no kids, so I guess it's weird that I find stuff to post pictures of on FB ALL THE TIME>

To Rachel Agee who has nothing to post on Facebook —

I think what we really need is a cultural shift that values the fact that you can have children in your life without having one of your own. We need to embrace that whole "it takes a village" mentality to highlight the importance of aunts and uncles, neighbors, troop leaders, etc. As someone who doesn't intend on…

Good. I feel bad saying that, but Moffat is SO BAD at writing and directing women that I wouldn't want him touching a woman Doctor with a ten foot pole. Look at the absolute stupid bullshit he pulled with Amy, River and the incredibly forgettable Clara. They need to get rid of Moffat, STAT. The last season was so…

I love my girlfriends so much. My favorite female centered culture is an oldie but goodie - Anne Shirley from the Anne of Green Gables books. Anne has such wonderful relationships with her girl friends, and the last book that is from the POV of her youngest daughter as a teenager shows the girl's transformation from…

Let's talk female friendship. I was chatting in a thread with Jennyapples earlier today about Orange is the New Black and the fact that I love any tv show that honestly portrays relationships between women, hetro or homosexual in nature.

With all due respect, you should.

I don't understand what's supposed to be sexy about that imagery. The woman in the article's leading photograph appears to be: A.) passed out. B.) injured. C.) as if she's been attacked.

...not one of those things says to me, "Mmmm, sex." They say, instead—and rather clearly, "Shit, I need to call an ambulance and…

There is this magical device called a Kettle that can be used to boil water, simply boil the water (then let it drop slightly below boiling for the perfect tea) and add the tea.

Help me out here - should I re-order the paragraphs so I point out that I don't think this hot/cold water thing is an issue right up front? It seems like a few people are getting hung up on that and commenting without reading what I mentioned was the real issue, or even reading that I dismissed the hot/cold pocket…

Protip: Anyone who references Alton Brown is likely to know what they're talking about. He may not be the most famous celebrity chef, but he's easily the best person to look to when you're learning.

Salmon and Asparagus with a basil/tomato/onion/capers salad. Just last night, one of my favorites!
