To that I say neigh. Neigh, I say!

As so, so many people have replied, you are WAY wrong. I'm a Spaniard-American (if you want to get specific about it) who is a hispanic, and having zero ancestry linked to South America, I am most certainly NOT a latina. Latino/a is a legitimate thing to be. As is hispanic. They are not the same thing. You are so…

Me too! Ikea in particular makes me want to curl up in the middle of the floor in the fetal position until somebody carries me out. When I start whimpering, my husband knows it's time to go.

Thank you. Sorry to bring down the tone with my sad tale. I'm now 34 weeks pregnant again, with a singleton son this time. Anxious as hell, but holding out for that high from a natural birth! I get the feeling from talking to those who get pain relief that it doesn't come the same way as without. Which makes sense, I…

Thirding the endorphin euphoria! I had a 63-hour natural birth with twins. It was HARD, but the high was worth every second. In fact, both my twins came too soon and died and that high is probably the only thing that got me through it. My husband even felt it. We were both bathed in a wash of oxytocin, with lovey…

I married my highest match in the world! He lived in Ireland and started chatting me up (I was his highest, too). I only talked to him thinking he'd be a penpal. Two years married now with twins and one more on the way! My best friend who I still have butterflies for. It worked very well for me!

Dismiss this person. It's no accident that they only responded to people trying to make a reasoned discussion with other points, and this person has only used this discussion as a vehicle for showing their contempt for obese people. The ED-thinking is showing or it's a troll, either way this person is full of hate and…

Preach!!

Having children with a man who has twins in his family will have no bearing on whether you will have them. It's not a gene for twins, rather a gene for releasing more than one egg at a time at ovulation. Men don't ovulate so they can only pass that ability on to their daughters.

Absolutely not on the father's, as far as the present generation is concerned. It's not a gene to have twins. It's a gene to release more than one egg at a time at ovulation. Since men don't ovulate, the best they can do is give their daughter the ability to have twins. But having twins themselves would be completely…

The gene to carry multiples only occurs in women. It's actually a gene to ovulate more than one egg at a time. Since men do not ovulate, men can carry the gene and pass it on to their children, which is why people think that twins "skip a generation." It's really all about the ability to ovulate one at a time, or more…

So in love with this and every reply in this thread!! Seriously, you have all made my week!

That's not what an editor does, that's a proofreader. Editors look at actual content, tone and style. Although, you're right in that Jez desperately needs both!

I've seen your behaviour in other threads, and I'm kicking myself for feeding the troll.

Oh please. Other people are allowed to have opinions that do not match yours. That doesn't mean you were here first. I was in fact a member of the original community, and I remain upset about how the writing has declined to become less professional and thoughtful (both in content and execution).

She seems pretty relaxed to me. No need to pile on.

Doug often gets the facts wrong, as well. I think that contributes to why so many people are sick of his writing. And it's exactly why I'm so annoyed that he's the one covering such a serious subject. He's just not the person who should be let near sensitive subjects because of his lack of attention to detail, tact or…

Sorry, but one can think that both the way she died AND the way Doug writes are terrible. One does not take away from the other. They are not mutually exclusive.

Yet another shitty piece of writing from Doug Barry.
