I'd rather see a film about her mother Mary Wollstonecraft who wrote "A Vindication of the Rights of Woman".

I hate to be so disagreeable, but you're aware that solitary is a form of torture, right? If you advocate torturing a 12 year old, then how are you better than her?
Or maybe the psychiatrist is entirely correct in his assessment of her?
It's truly daunting how many books flood the shelves every month. So going forward, we're going to comb through the…
I love imagining her picking out her collars based on how pissed she is at a decision. "Oh, I am going full-on starched cotton on this bitch!"
Health: Would love some non-body-shaming, non-"health nuts, they so crazy" women's health stuff. I'd love a series on workouts. But I want it in a "Just tell me what I need to do to not die" framework versus "this is how you get skinny."
Less celebrity gossip, more news & politics. Possibly more news & politics gossip. I still miss Crappy Hour — it made me laugh first thing in the morning and had a politics bent, with room for silliness and tabloid-y stuff. To me that was one of the things that set Jez apart early on — it was funny and smart and gave…
I wonder what your targeted age range is on the site. I've said in the past that I thought that Dodai's piece about When Motherhood Doesn't Happen (?) was one of my favorite pieces because I think that as a Gen Xer, facing older adulthood when you aren't in a lifecourse of marriage + kids, would be helpful to read. I…
I really like Jezebel as is currently, though I feel like some of the content is needlessly click baity. I'd really love to see a side room (ala powder room, kitchenette or roy g biv) that was dedicated to crafting and diy. Not just twee perfect pinterest- though I'm down with that, but like hard core make something…
I'd love to see a snapshot series similar to Lifehacker's "How I Work" featuring women, especially women in traditionally male dominated fields.
I'd like to see more unique content created for/by Jezebel - it feels like the majority of content is just bringing our attention to things other people/websites have written/posted, without a lot of original analysis attached to the post.
Bring back the fucking grays. Or, like Max said yesterday, administer some sort of "flag" or "call moderator" button for spam, trolls and porn gifs.
[Small voice] I like makeup and beauty stuff. I'd love to read lovely, joyful pieces about how to do half-moon manicures and how to tightline properly. And I think there are a lot of really rewarding conversations to be had about how progressive women approach beauty rituals and performance, and the way they can…
I'd also like to see more posts about books. io9 does a great one every month with new SFF books. I'd like to see one on Jez every month that are themed i.e. Female authors (or whatever). A lot of us read and read a lot. It would be nice to have less Kardashian and more, well, anything really.
I'd love to see at least 1 Ask an Expert every month. And not a sex expert or a sex worker or a sex anything, but science, medicine, the arts, engineering, space, all of that stuff. There's so little of that on Jezebel and I think it could be very helpful.
I love the way that you placed all of the periods at the end to add to the clarity of the piece. Bravo!
DO NOT FEED THE TROLLS
She put her entire career on hold when they had children (as many women still do), which is the real reason why alimony exists today. She essentially did not work from 2004-2010. He would not have been able to make the movies he made and had a family had she not done that.
I think it applies more in the case where a spouse put their own career on hold to raise children and support the efforts of the other spouse by tending to running the household.
There are plenty of men who have accepted alimony in 2014.
