I MUST HAVE THAT KERMIT/COLBERT GIF!!! It is everything!

I'd wager the difficulty comes from men who were raised in households where Mom did all of the 'wimmen's work' and Dad came home from his job and had dinner and his slippers waiting for him every evening. Thus entitlements are created in the younger generation...

Yes, and I say that as someone whose neighbors gave their daughter a first name that was identical to the first two syllables of their last name. Like naming a son David Davidson.

Yeah, I think Kaidence sounds really pretty even though I'm not a fan of the spelling. I don't get the fuss over Donda at all. I know it's not common, but it doesn't strike me as unusual or unpleasant sounding at all. Compared to a lot of celebrity baby names, Donda is pretty normal.

I have a name that's traditionally spelled with a C but my mother switched it to K, so I already felt some defensive solidarity but now I'm ready to bust some melons.

My fellow straight men take note: gay and lesbian couples have it right. Find yourself a PARTNER not a WIFE, with all the subtext those words contain.

I'm just gonna leave this here since racist comments are pretty much inevitable at this point. This one's for you, racists!

I just read 'troll in the gray' as 'roll in the hay' - and was confused.

It really fucking irritates me that the right-wingers have seized the momentum on the Gosnell story. Make no mistake, if the anti-choice folks get their way, they will roll back women's rights to the point that people like Gosnell are the only option.

First, UGH FOREVER.

I had a TSA agent tell me last year that the sheer shirt I was wearing underneath a sweater he asked me to remove was sheer. And I was like, "duh, I know, that is why I normally wear this sweater over it. Also, you're subtly trying to force me into your radiation peepshow booth, so... what does it matter if your

I am so obsessed with that Colbert-Kermit gif!

I figured it was a slip of the tongue (fingers?), but since it's a pet peeve I had to comment. Apologies accepted!

I see what you're saying, but can they just say something like "I think we need to re-examine gender-inequality in education and the workplace". I mean, what kind of answers are they supposed to give to these relatively open-ended questions? Is that type of answer considered offensive to men or Trump?

As far as I'm concerned, they stated a fact that belies multiple, complicated factors, then followed it with a vague question. I can only assume the people running the pageant throw these out in the hopes of a response exactly like she gave — awkward and incoherent. Why? Because every time a beauty queen sounds like

Agreed, especially because I think the half-assed training makes them look dumber than many of them probably are. It is so ingrained that they *must* bring a question around to their platform that what they end up saying sounds dumber than if they just spoke off the cuff. They have the rules but not the tools.
I did a

I'm now incapable of viewing pageants without what I call the "Gracie Lou Freebush" lens. As a result, I do in fact expect contestants to be able to speak on, for instance, harsher punishments for repeat offenders.
