When I was a teenage, my mom told me to never bite an attacker because you never know what diseases you could contract if you draw blood. Tis a good tip!

Kudos to her for admitting that she rocks a bush. Yeah, she's annoying but as a fellow bush-rocker, I appreciated that.
I dig that too!
As someone who works with sexual assault survivors in higher education, it really concerns me when students claim there are no support services available for survivors (I can't tell if students are making that claim or not). Dartmouth has a website that is really quite impressive compared to most higher ed…
I am already shocked when I meet New Yorkers who smoke. This city makes it nearly impossible to be a smoker due to the cost ($10/pack) and so many restricted areas for smokers. As a non-smoker, this only impacts me in positive ways. But I'll be even more shocked if I meet smokers in NYC if this actually passes.
Ah, thank you! This was super helpful.
What are people's thoughts on government officials pushing for capital punishment in a state that doesn't recognize it? He's a U.S. citizen, not a foreigner, so I just wonder how his terrorist actions are influencing his rights as a citizen.
Gah! That's so awful, I'm sorry :(
How convenient that you mention all of these complaints after people call you out on sounding outright mean and slut-shamey. I'm sorry that happened to you (I hope you know that a lot of us white girls don't do stuff like that that). But your original comment was uncalled for, especially in a space like Jezebel. This…
ha! I do the same thing sometimes. Laundromats in NYC are never short of weirdos trying to bother me while I'm minding my bizzzz.
This is interesting. I'm bi but I don't know how to "label" myself in certain communities, especially because I mostly dig men so I pass as straight and that's how I'm most comfortable identifying. But OTHER people don't like knowing how I identify (i.e. lesbians). Some people need the label because they want to have…
You just described an enigma in the "apartment world in NYC." I'm just jealous that you can have a washer and dryer in your unit!
Awesome. That's what I was going for.
Ruuude
I'm still feeling uneasy. I blame Homeland.
"Just because you have a vagina doesn’t mean you need to act like one." What does that even mean? How does one's vagina act? Or is this supposed to translate into "Just because you're a woman doesn't mean you need to act like one"? Ugh...
It's funny... I got my tragus pierced when I was 20 and now I'm 30 and I've been thinking of taking it out for professional reasons (I have no idea how to remove it). But to answer your questions...
I have a rescue and he has very similar reactions to certain people (I'm glad I'm not alone with that type of stress!). It's especially weird when fellow dog-owners do stupid shit like that around other people's dogs. It's like "you should know better!" A former friend is the first person I witnessed my dog negatively…
