I posted this on a GT article the other day, but it applies here as well:

I wouldn't be able to even get dressed at home though! Or step foot in the house wearing it. It's gorgeous, but just not for me :`(

Let me guess. The designer of this dress doesn't have cats.

It looks like she got a nose job too, but I could be wrong. I know that talented make-up professionals can change the way noses/cheekbones look with contouring and whatnot.

Because telling girls how not to get raped is next to useless. Rape prevention classes teach you how to defend yourself from strangers, and how to act when you're walking down the street at night, and to scream really loudly. The vast majority of rapes aren't perpetrated by scary strangers- they're done by people…

That is horrific. How does this attitude still exist?

One thing I got from this really hits home that we NEED to teach boys from a young age what rape is and that it's always wrong. The report stated that if the men were asked if they raped someone, they would often say no. However, if asked if they'd ever had sex with someone who didn't want to, or with someone who…

holycrap I want to be the crazy cat lady pushing her cats around the neighbourhood with that more than anything else I've ever wanted.

8 DOGS AND 5 CATS? Do you live on a farm? I can't envision how that works in a house. I want another cat badly but the thought of the litter from three adult cats is enough to stop me!

I know. As I wrote to someone else, my nightmares are about end-of-the-world type situations where there is no choice but to leave them inside, leave them outside, or mercy-kill them. It will likely never happen, and it's a totally illogical fear to obsess over, but just the thought ties my stomach in knots.

To be honest, if there was some sort of civilization-ending event like they prepare for, my husband and I are pretty sure that we'd be killed off in the first wave of rioting. We're pretty helpless :)

That's one of the scenarios I think about :)

I'm so happy to read the end of that story. When I saw the first line, I immediately thought the worst!

This is basically a quality vs quantity thing, right? It even makes sense from an evolutionary standpoint. Large Balled Man has showier genitals, has more sex, has more children, can rest confident that his genes have been passed on. Small Balled Man has less sex and fewer children, so he therefore pays more…

I know, and that's the logical answer. I'm thinking of a scenario where I can't take them, for whatever reason.

Slightly (if you squint) related: With all the disasters that have happened around the world due to climate change, I've gotten paranoid about what I would do with my cats. I imagine a horrible scenario where I have to leave only with what I can carry, and don't know when I'll be back. I've got two cats, neither of…

I just read on BBC News this morning about a survey that showed that 23% of men across different parts of Asia admitted to having raped at least one woman in the past. Many of them did it because they honestly believed that the women owed them sex, and also just because they were bored. I don't think that a few…

In the picture with the close-up of her eyes, she has no pupils. She's a robot witch!

I think this is fantastic. I've got 9 nieces, and a couple of them have always hated 'girl' clothes, since it's all so pink, tight, and sparkly, but they didn't necessarily want to wear 'boy' clothes, because it make them feel like they weren't real girls. To have clothing specifically designed and labelled for…

Canada has a separate maternity leave (which is for the mother to take off time while recovering from labour) and parental leave (in which either parent can take time off work to care for the baby). This is great, but I don't think it goes far enough. I forget which country it is, but I've read about one…
