Reminds me of hick dive bar I went to little after turning 21. I’d had many years of drinking experience, but none with cocktails (as high school kids don’t really bother to mix their booze in with things). So the bartender asks me what I want and I see there’s a full bar, so I ask for a cocktail and told him I’d have

I remember laying in bed thinking those very same thoughts as a child. Fundies are so obsessed with the “coming end times” that they forget how to live a normal life.

Or they just brush them off as a “golddigging whore” and blame everything on everyone else all the time instead of realizing that maybe there is something wrong with them.

“Well women love George Clooney, so they must love me too!”

I’m not sure it’s a “love yourself” message or the constant media trope of the schlubby guy getting the hot girl. I bet, right now, without doing any research, you could name a dozen movies and TV shows with this theme. It’s so ever-present in our media that men are entitled to attractive women for no reason other

Women are “prizes” to these kinds of men. Men I work with “compete” to see who can bed the youngest and most attractive women. And if one of the women is over 30, she’s “old” and they’ll make fun of each other for it. These are not young men I’m talking about either. It’s gross. I just want to scream at them, “YOU

My mom always said that men who won’t date women their own age are just afraid of dating a woman who will actually call them out on their shit, like cheating and other asshole-ish behavior. The older I get, the more I realize how smart my mom is.

He’s just one of those dime-a-dozen guys with impossible standards who hate women because he can’t find one that meets said impossible standards. I know these types very well; I work with several of them.

Isn’t Michael Moscovicz the “Princess Diaries” dude? In which case, I’d say congratuations to your friend.

Every single school dance was traumatizingly awful for me. I kept going to them, hoping that it would be different each time. I was a very developed, very shy, weird, artsy teen (think Tina Belcher, but way more shy). One year, a group of people I believed were my friends thoroughly convinced me that a cute new boy at

Me too. In middle school, I could not have been more invisible to boys (except the ones who bullied me). Moved to another school in high school and, all of a sudden, boys all over me.

Who raised their kids while she was in prison? Was he responsible for caring for a baby in his mid-teens?

That’s a really good point. Having crushes on authority figures is something I think just about every kid goes through. It’s our responsibility as adults and decent human beings not to act on that. It’s natural for a kid going through puberty to fantasize about adults in their life, and they should be able to be safe

That would be awesome. At least give them some place semi-private to eat alone if they must eat alone. At my high school, designated eating spaces were all out in the open, and if you were eating alone (which I did a lot of the time) it was painfully obvious. It would have been much easier for me if I could have, for

Why not just wrap them in tissues or something before throwing them away? If it works for tampons, it'll work for condoms!

Always have pads with you on vacation in case of random stomach bugs/food poisoning. They will help save your panties, ladies.

I am so sorry that sounds awful! I had this too not too long ago and it was bad enough at home!

I mean, technically, I’m sure some woman at some point has gotten pregnant after anal sex...

Unrelated: who else here was traumatized by Touched By an Angel as a young child?

This guy is way too hot to play Jesus. It's just wrong. I mean, maybe Jesus was hot, but as someone who was raised in a very religious household, I just can't.
