This movie and Fried Green Tomatoes (TOWANDA!!!) got me mad and through my early adult years. A sort of feminist PSA in a "man's world". I would have dragged all my friends to see the sequel.

I too refused to circumcise my son and had to watch the nurses like a hawk the less than 24 hours I was in the hospital. They came in to roll him out three times for the operation even though it was in the chart he was to remain intact. The pediatrician came in to check him before I left and got me worried, watching…

What a lovely thing to say. I thank you.

Only the lady in question could answer that.

But was it revenge? Maybe, after years of being hurt, this was this person's way of screaming "OUCH!".

I have no doubt this invite was cheaper than therapy. I agree with you in a way, for nice normal little happy families who have their little spat, this would be ugly and loud. For someone who was abused for years, this may have been the best way to express their feelings and well deserved to the people who received…

AMEN!! Any time I am in a group of women and they want to be all proper and shy about things I just remind them that it is not a distant past where we died from not talking about breast and vaginal issues. So, thank you for your frankness!!!!!!! :-D

A friend told me her MIL missed a period and was very concerned about a late in life pregnancy. She went to the doctor, they did some tests, informed her she was in menopause and....that was it. Nothing. No jumping hormones, no sweat, NOTHING. Just stopped having her period one month and was done. I am both happy for…

Be careful what you wish for. I had my first one in the winter but woke up drenched in the nasty sweat from belly button to knees. I thought I had peed myself! Of course, I was chilled and gross and..moist. Like a leaking diaper moist. I HAD to get up, shower, put on clean pajamas and just throw a towel over the damp…

I agree. I had some ongoing and seriously life impacting health issues so my medicine cabinet had stuff just tumbling out. Not to go on for paragraphs I will say my diet, stress level, living arrangements and genetic health were terrible. After some research—and finally avoiding the MANY doctors giving me the quick…

I had a job in a doctor's office representing a drug testing company and I wasn't drug tested for the job. Go figure.

I am laughing soooo hard at this ""WHY DO YOU STILL ACT LIKE THE WHORE I PICKED UP ON THE CORNER! WHY???". Nailed it. Thank you!!!!!!! omg...I can't breathe...

If you really think such things about other people's problems, you need something. But no, it is not my sympathy. Good thing.

I am going to pull the asshole card and just say it. Reading all of what you have been through and yet you still want to judge other people's trials. Because you show no care or compassion toward struggles that you have not lost to, I have no sympathy for you. I HAVE lost two people to suicide and yes, I can see that…

I LOVED these!!!! I used to steal them from my big sister and her friends, lol! Good memories!

The news article that was linked here seemed to show the house number and the house as well. If the poor kid sees the news he will know with all of his teenage self that the only thing worse than getting shot in the twig is everyone knowing you were shot in the twig.

"I choose pictures based on feelings"

And it is INEXPENSIVE! Works, harmless and cheap. I can't think of anything better or easier.

Completely agree. I am a wildlife rehabber so the drugs we can safely use are pretty limited and this stuff knocks out UTIs that some animals are prone to in captivity. I see a little blood in the urine and start them off with this in a little yogurt and in a few days the comfort level is back and in a week the UTI is…

Thank you for asking this question! I am a "hair person"- love mine, love others'. Since more Black women have been styling their hair naturally I am soooo envious and loving it. I always want to tell any woman when her hair is stunning but I sometimes hold back with Black ladies because I don't want to be seen as…
