Right?!? Toddlers are tripping hazards. They don’t stay with you, they can’t walk in a straight line, and they’re slow.

I have to pick up my stroller in some places to get it on the sidewalk, though. It’s ridiculous how pedestrian and stroller unfriendly it is... SE Asia, though, so the fact that we even have sidewalks for my entire journey to the store is a miracle!

“What is this word? Eukaryote? Never heard of it, can’t pronounce it, but let me explain why this is all bullshit!”

Well, duh! Who doesn’t?

As an adopted person, I’m very pro-adoption and think it’s something many women should consider, BUT, having been through two pregnancies and currently at 40 weeks with my second (AKA the worst week imaginable), I’d never want abortion to not be an option. Pregnancy is a miserable experience, but you do it because you…

I seriously wondered if this woman honestly thought that no one who believed abortion should be legal would choose to carry a baby to term.

Before I stopped reading Facebook comments in order to save my sanity, I got into a debate with an anti-choice lunatic. Because I’m pro-choice, he assumed I was pro-aborting every baby in the world. I informed him I was pregnant and if I was so pro-aborting every baby ever, I’d not be expecting. He thanked me for not…

Those things look great, but not really if you’re walking outside through a city. At least where I live, it would be impossible with the really uneven pavement. I see kids on them in the mall where the surface is even and they seem to be having fun. The other issue would be when the toddler gets tired, she won’t have…

I’m surprised I haven’t seen something like that here in SE Asia. There are no child car seat laws, so people just ride around with their kids in their laps in the front seat (once I saw a baby in the driver’s seat on his dad’s lap), or hanging onto them on motorbikes. It’s funny when I see mommy war carseat posts on…

Very true. I think we’re all criticised for so many ridiculous things, it’s so hard to keep track. No one can ever win with everyone.

Making yourself more attractive has a direct coorelation with sexual assault

Revealing clothing isn’t going to make it more likely that your daughter will be sexually assaulted. Being in dangerous situations around rapists is going to make that more likely. It’s fine to tell your children what they can and cannot wear, steering them in an appropriate direction with their attire, but not…

Two people de-friended by me, so far, over bigoted posts about Caitlyn Jenner. They were only high school acquaintances, so it’s not really a big deal. They’re husband and wife. The husband posted that Caitlyn was going against “God’s plan” for “him” and “he” would always be a man. Then, the wife decided to be far…

The saddest day was when I went to the London Zoo and the pygmy hippos weren’t out that day. I hate that fucking zoo now.

I saw a woman a few years ago with a stroller like that. She was full-blown, 1940’s retro and it was the best thing I’ve ever seen. I can’t imagine the manoeuvrability on those things is great, but at least she looked awesome doing it.

I love me some cloth diapers.

It’s sort of like that with everything, though. Women leave the house without makeup and we’re chastised and told our husbands will cheat on us for letting ourselves go. Meanwhile, everyone is embracing the dadbod and calling it super sexy. Why isn’t my pregnant flabby ass sexy?!?! The husband has a big belly (which I…

You definitely can manage with only baby carriers, but only with one munchkin. You need a good age gap to manage sans-stroller with two kids in a city. I’d say at least four years. Even better... wait until the oldest is at school all day, to make life easier. A baby carrier and grocery bag trolley thing work well,…

I’m in a large city, too, without a car and with a toddler and baby on the way (any day now... get the hell out of there, little guy!). Life without a stroller would be hell and I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t even do city living with just a toddler - she’s too big to be carried and is a terrible walker, plus she’s 2, so…

She was brilliant in Bridesmaids. The fact that she improvs frequently in her films, and those are usually the funniest parts, says a lot about just how talented she is. I watched Mike & Molly a few times and was shocked that she was doing such a horrible show, considering she’s one of the funniest women in Hollywood.
