Part of me wonders if this has to do with the lack of paid maternity leave and the amount of stress that puts on a woman.

Obsesity is not getting the attention it deserves, in this comment section or in America. 25% of these deaths were from obsesity related issues: that basically is the gain and then some. Without those we would have declined (although still maybe not as dramatically as elsewhere).

Them, and the forced-birth douchebags what say “you can just give it up for adoption” as if pregnancy and childbirth weren’t a huge goddamn ordeal.

I’d love for this information to serve as a impetus to quell haughty douchebags from getting all huffy and pearl-clutchy about how women choose (or have) to give birth—vaginal, “natural,” c-section, VBAC, RCD, etc—pull their heads out of their asses for a second and be like “Yo, here’s a problem that’s affecting WAY…

Theres a huge problem with your community if discussing sexual assault and consent within the community is “polarizing”

Marriage isn’t “just a fucking word”. It’s a legal status with fairly extensive implications in healthcare, tax, child custody, inheritance, property ownership, civil and criminal legal cases, pensions etc. Marriage doesn’t protect spouses from cheating or leaving, sure, but that’s a massively different thing from…

And one of the reasons you are still with your partner is because she also doesn’t want to get married. If marriage were important to her, you likely would have lost her - and that’s fine! It is truly okay to value your beliefs above your partner! In the end, every couple faces compromises, and a couple’s staying…

And yet, here in this comment is a nugget of the basic problem.

Longtime Jez fan, first time poster. I created this account just now because Jackie was a casual friend of mine and I’m the one who sent the story into Jezebel. Just wanted to say thank you so much for using my tip and posting her story. Jackie was a funny, charming, kind young woman and we are trying to get her story…

Damn it. This poor woman and her family. It’s weird how our social media presences sort of become ghosts when we die.

The man suspected of her murder, 30-year-old Charles Bryant, was also being investigated for stalking and harassing an ex-girlfriend at the time.

Obviously it goes without saying, but the “never knew I could feel like this” by (presumably) the killer is particularly icky.

yikes now it’s cool on jezebel to make fun of non nerotypical people? ‘short bus’ jokes are so beyond lame

and how would he even know who Keith Urban was if he doesn’t watch TV or use the interwebs?

Eh, I’m of two minds with this. I agree it shouldn’t be trivialized or sensationalized, but if approached correctly it could be good. I grew up with physical and sexual abuse and I think if I hadn’t believed I was the only one going through something similar (or that it was a bad reflection on me and my family - like…

Let the circus begin. No matter what happens people will still find a way of blaming Angelina . They still hate her for ‘splitting up a marriage’ and Brad came out of that unscathed even though he’s a grown man who can be held accountable for his own decisions. Christ I’m now ranting.

Just a guess, but I think the baby is Cotillard’s.

So she’s not saying she didn’t sleep with him.
