How very outré of you

Really? Do they have that on tape? Wow.

Donald Trump is a man who spent 10 minutes talking to coal miners in Kentucky about the relative merits of aerosol hair spray. It was real-life Zoolander.

Donald Trump’s former hairdresser had some amusing things to say about his hair:

I am entirely unsurprised that companies that get to choose which gender they hire choose the gender that doesn’t have mandated long holidays after nine months where they have a higher risk of health complications that decrease productivity. I mean, to be honest, as a woman of prime childbearing age according to

Snark all you want about Thicke, this is an important case for musicians everywhere.

I thought the premise of this article, based on the headline, would be something like:

Maybe I don’t have impostor syndrome due to my gender, but that doesn’t make the headline of this piece true. No one thinks impostor syndrome is an actual clinical issue. That it’s so common as to be normal doesn’t make it not a problem.

I think what explains Donald Trump is that he has no sense of long term consequences for his actions or his statements. The book that took him from random real estate developer to pop culture reference was “The Art of the Deal,” not say, “The Art of the Stable, Viable Long Term, and Profitable Deal that Yields Steady

She gets crap for this, but my husband still bitches about missing his Blackberry, at least for work email stuff. For one thing, as far as I recall his Blackberry never autocorrected perfectly normal, appropriate phrases into weird things it thought you meant so it was safer to use for texting and emailing certain

As a mom to a 3-year-old, I completely agree: motherhood is damn difficult, and also the most basic-ass job on the planet.

Yes, it’s funny how the focus on female “empowerment” has somehow so quickly circled back to sex, and in particular the very things that give men pleasure! In the interest of full disclosure: I like sex, and I even enjoy taking a submissive role in sex sometimes. I don’t feel guilty about it, because I know the real

I definitely had a boyfriend who was *shocked* that I didn't want him to 'skullfuck' me while he choked me. "Women in porn like it." But he was an asshole of the highest magnitude, and no other man that I've been with has been at all like that.

Your movie experience sounds pretty dreadful. I’ve never acted in such roles, but I’m reminded of agreeing to a sex act not because I have any desire to do it, but to, well, some combination of making a partner happy and getting him off my back. It feels like trade, sometimes, and it also feels degrading.

These are all very, very interesting points. I see a lot of wisdom in what you are saying. I had written a whole thing about how hyper-sexuality also comes from media, and that women are not the driving force behind the idea that women should look, behave and perform a certain way, but I deleted in attempt to be

I’m very liberal-leaning but I have to admit I worry about the impact of the flow of never-ending hardcore porn into the minds of adolescents who, yes, always had hormones driving curiosity, and always sought out Playboys or Playgirls from that curiosity, but now have a flow of the most esoteric and depraved acts

I have a panic attack every time i hear about a democrat who wants to vote for Trump just to spite Hillary.

As a fan of the show myself, I find that immensely disappointing. It’s a show that, like Star Trek, I like to think of as embodying and encouraging all these positive values of the sort I don’t see in the Republican platform, and I want to think that of course fans of the show embody decency, diversity, etc., but I

And then there are those memes. In case anyone was unaware... Jenn is not 50 ... she’s 47, and no, it’s not okay to round up ages after 45 (as a 20 something said to me)

I guess because it’s late Friday afternoon but this essay confuses me...what’s the thesis statement? That women who are body-shamed shouldn’t be “clapping back”?

I could be wrong, but her primary complaint didn’t seem to be about beauty standards only, but how everyone is waiting for her to be pregnant so she can be a complete woman or something. This wasn’t about decades of pictures of her without make-up, or having cellulite, this was about her having a baby and how it’s a
