My partner and I use partner with friends, family, coworkers, and other people we know well. We use wife/husband (despite not legally being married) when talking to the rest of the world because... whatever? People just get this dumb look on their face and we always need to go through and explain anyway, so it just…

...or this is some freudian thing, in which case, good luck with that?

When we were kids my mom used to make a nacho dip from velveeta and salsa. I remember it really fondly (and want some now), but I'm sure it was likely gross.

50s, married, finished high school and college, worked full time until my brother (her third child) was born. I'm guessing that you're asking because you might be assuming that she was a teen mom? Not the case.

I suppose it's really just a polarized issue. Obviously we look at it in entirely different ways. Ideally, they wouldn't have gotten pregnant but I believe that being a parent (no matter how many people have done it) is notable, being a parent, coupled with the rest of the stuff that gets piled on when you're a teen…

I may be looking at the wrong pictures, but I don't see pictures of these teens having sex without a condom - which would be the "mistake", from the moment they decided to take action to take care of the baby, continue their education (despite how friggen hard it is to be pregnant, a parent to an infant - coupled with…

...made a huge mistake and then went on to learn and grow from it.

I think it's worth thinking more about why it makes you uncomfortable.

"A yearbook is to commemorate the achievements of the students, particularly the senior class," she said. "Probably this would not fall into that category."

Any suggestions on an exfoliator that won't fuck up the ocean or tear up my skin? I hadn't even thought about little tiny jagged edges.

Thanks! I JUST asked this question (should have scanned through the comments first) about Burt's bees.

It had honestly never even crossed my mind that these things would be shitty for the environment - I think I always just assumed that they were harder pieces of soap that dissolved? Since reading about this a little while ago I've stopped buying products with this stuff in it.

I didn't realize this was even a thing that existed. I'm a little bummed to read this review, but here's hoping my expectations are now low enough that I will love it?

I've crossing my fingers for you too!

Oh girl, I have no advice but that is really harsh. We struggled with pregnancy and now, even with a baby we're already getting hammered with "WHENS THE NEXT ONE". Getting pregnant is hard. Staying pregnant is hard. People need to lay off.

Woah, I have no idea why someone would randomly issue a HAPPY MOTHERS DAY! to anyone unless they were with a kid that was obviously their own or the wisher knew they were a mom. I'm sorry that you had to deal with that.

I'm not entirely sure why you picked reproductive assistance to hate on so much. It isn't a matter of who "deserves" what or what people feel like they're entitled to, it's a matter of a personal definition of a fulfilled life. I'm of the opinion that it doesn't really matter if you're against it because it isn't your…

Totally is. I know there is no way for them to know but it still stings.

completely agreed! In my circle of friends there was a lot of miscarriage, still birth, late term pregnancy loss etc and we all had to deal with the same issues. So heartbreaking.
