Honestly, isn't that probably the reason EVERYONE has kids, even if they would never admit it? In fact I bet a lot of people don't really even know that's the reason they want them. Because if you think about it, what reason is there to have kids, other than that? You have kids because you think they're going to give

My great-grandfather met my great-grandmother on the subway, and rode 5 stops past his own to continue talking to her. So I am always partial to being hit on on the subway. :)

I really love her and I feel like I should have feelings like this about a stupid reality dancing show, BUT:

The reason fertility goes down w/ age is because our eggs degrade. We're born with a finite number of eggs and they get less healthy as we get older (basically because random changes occur in the DNA that cause mutations). Meanwhile men are constantly making new sperm, which is why they can have children well into old

Yeah, I get that. I was talking more in general, rather than this specific situation where I personally feel she should be able to go wherever she wants. When people move their kids to other states / countries / continents for jobs, school, relationships, etc., I feel really really conflicted. On the one hand, of

Did you miss the part at the end where I said this was clearly a bad example b/c of his behavior?

This story is so terrible and I really feel for her. And obviously I feel for the child being put in the middle of this.

Well, she actually enjoys tracking the toys down, so it's not entirely selfless. But yeah, it is one of the things I like most about my mom.

I had seriously never thought about that as a possibility...I hope that didn't happen! :(

Whenever there is a hot toy, my mom goes and stands in line at 3 in the morning so that she can get a bunch of them to donate to Toys for Tots, because she thinks those kids deserve the hot toys too. She loved the "thrill of the chase" when we were little and she keeps doing it even though my sister and I are nearing

If you're trying to make a point about the sexualization of women in music videos, why would you...sexualize women in a music video? Wouldn't it have been more interesting and made her point a lot better if she had had half naked men twerking? Or even a few men being sexualized in the video? Instead she just didn't

Important question! I am going to get my hair highlighted today, and am bringing a picture of Connie Britton as the color I want. Right now my hair is sort of dirty blonde. My natural color is light brownish. Can I get that reddish blonde color with highlights alone? I don't want single process color and I don't want

I feel pretty certain that since I posted that about BB, someone is going to come along and deliberately spoil it for me in the comments. Which will be OK and I will kind of deserve, since it's now been like a month since it ended. :)

That's true, and another commenter pointed out to me that a vague headline would not allow people to find the article through searching, which I didn't think about while I was having my rage stroke.

In my moment of silly rage I didn't even think about search engine traffic, and that totally makes sense. I just kind of looked at the apology and felt like, if you knew it was a spoiler, why did you do it, since people who had watched the episode already would have still clicked?

OK, maybe half-assed is the wrong word, and I appreciate that you guys apologized for it. But I don't get why, if you realize that the headline spoils it for people, you felt it necessary to include it in the headline. Everyone who's watched the show would know what scene you were talking about and would be able to

Seriously, how fucking hard would it be to say "Last night's scene on Scandal" or "Talking about THAT scene on Scandal" and not ruin it for people considering that it aired less than 24 hours ago? A half-assed apology at the end of the article doesn't really make up for the fact that I came to read Jezebel and got the

WHAT IS SHE WEARING ON HER FEET? I cannot deal.

There is one white girl who gets her ass motioned at with money. There are several instances throughout the video of black girls getting their asses smacked, having champagne poured over their ass and breasts, and fellating champagne bottles. And in one of the scenes Lily herself smacks a black woman's ass and

I'm saying close-ups on their asses being smacked and champagne being poured over their breasts is not dancing. There are many ways that Lily Allen could have made a point about these women being objectified, but what she did was objectify them herself, which doesn't really say much of anything. She's a while woman,
