Commenting on your body, as a stranger who is passing me on the street, is not really the same as commenting on the blog post that a woman has put out there on a blog that's read by hundreds of thousands of people talking about the fact that she ate with total abandon during her pregnancy. As I said in my post (which…

That's not at all what I said.

You know, there's a difference between "pregnant women don't need to worry about what they look like, and should eat what they need in unlimited quantities" and "pregnant women should all go to Burger King and order a value meal with a dessert of two cheesecakes because they don't give a fuck."

But since in every other aspect of our relationship he's incredibly respectful and helpful, this becomes something that I just have no idea how to deal with. I honestly don't think he means to be disrespectful - before I started dating him, he would only ever wash dishes if he ran out of dishes to eat on. And even…

Yeah, that happens to us too. When he actually does do the dishes, he does not do them correctly. And while some of this may be due to the societal conditioning that tells him that as a man he does not need to do housework, I think a large part of it is due to the fact that he is just not grossed out by the idea of…

In theory, I agree with the comments that everyone has already made. Men should not have to be rewarded for doing their fair share of the housework.

Their cupcakes are actually SO good, but the show has ruined them. I miss when it was a tiny little store that no one but a few Georgetown residents knew about, and we could send my dad down on Saturday mornings to get us a box.

It's also dangerous because the pervasiveness of these pink products makes it seem like breast cancer is the only cancer we get - when was the last time you saw people posting their bra color on Facebook to raise awareness of lung cancer (the leading cancer death among women) or colorectal cancer (the third)?

Wow. Calling someone serving overseas a douchebag based on a 19 second video in which he behaved perfectly normally is really awful.

But I believe the point of the original comment would be that there would be NO SUCH THING as marriage any more. We would all have civil unions, government mandated unions that were all honored in the exact same way. No hierarchy of marriage vs. civil unions, no confusion over benefits, etc. If you were in a civil…

I LOVE the laptop decal. Let everyone in your favorite coffee shop know that you're just as crazy as Casey!

Fiber in combination with water will not, though. If you drink a TON of water and eat a good amount of fiber each day - I eat 2 tablespoons of oat bran mixed in with my yogurt - it will really help with your bloating. But you need to combine that with lots of water to help flush the fiber through. Things like Fiber…

Drink lots of water, increase your fiber consumption, decrease your dairy consumption. All of this will decrease bloat a lot, and you'll notice a difference.

I dunno if I agree with that. If you think having sex before marriage is wrong, and then you have sex before marriage - that vow is pretty much broken. Continuing to have sex with the same person is not going to break it any more. I see the logic behind her statement.

Is that really such a terrible thing to say? Certainly much fuss has been made about the fact that Obama looks pretty nice without his shirt on, that Aaron Shock is one of the best looking congressmen ever, of Scott Brown and his Cosmo Hunk shoot. I think pretending that someone is not attractive, or that that doesn't…

I KNOW! She is the cutest...I really don't want her recast. Does it make me creepy that my favorite part of that show is a baby?

I was at Coney Island on Tuesday and yes, they are doing this. Go to Nathans and get yourself a bunch of napkins to use, then you can skip the line of people waiting for toilet paper and go right into a nasty, filthy stall.

To be fair, they were broadcasting this whole thing live on TV, so a lot of people WERE in the room for the trial, basically.

You know, I notice this a lot in med school circles too, and it's something I'm not sure to deal with. When we get the chance to meet with doctors who are at the top of their fields, the men in my class tend to ask questions like: how do I get the best residencies, what are the research positions that will put me at…

Yeah, they fucked us both up too. I am just saying, the idea that you shouldn't tell your daughter she is pretty because "pretty shouldn't matter, fuck the patriarchy, smart is the most important thing, blah blah" is really not a good one.
