Love it. Not slutty, and really funny indeed. Words to live by.

Creating a society where women and men have work-life balance is a different issue from educating about facts of fertility. I get how they're related, and I also get (and appreciate) that a women's college might have good reason to be hesitant about warning its students about future fertility issues, because there's…

Is it actually a benefit to white Baby Lisa's situation to be on the cover of People and otherwise receiving a national media blitz?

Any argument that bases one of its points on parsing the title "All the Single Ladies" without acknowledging the song it was clearly referencing is not well argued.

Oh god, that Above the Law piece about the survey results blames it 100% on lady lawyers being bitches.

I will make the same point here that I made about Claire McCaskill tweeting about weight loss: I think it's ultimately a harmful thing to use women's trying to lose weight as a tool to make them relatable to an audience. Because it's premised on the idea that all women are dissatisfied with their bodies, so to fit…

Do you remember years ago, then-Governor Schwarzeneggar was speaking in public about how much respect he has for women, all women, "from 100 pounds to 150 pounds." And in context, he was saying that as if it was this hugely large, inclusive range of weights, as if that covered the entire spectrum of womanhood. At…

There's a slightly different but related aspect to this that bothers me: it seems likely that the reason a senator would do this publicly — or at least one of the reasons — is to seem relatable and normal to her consituents. Which, fine. But. Showing you're normal by showing yourself losing weight is premised on…

You are breaking my heart.

I like to work out, and I like to work out with friends. But everything has its place, you know, and a workout is not a party. I especially don't trust this "trend" in a bridal context, because I guarandamntee it's packaged as a shape up for the wedding thing.

Well, one year is an arbitrary amount of time. If you follow your logic a little further, why not get tested every month to really be sure? The point of this recommendation — and more generally the point of all evidence-based medicine — is to figure out what length of testing you actually do need to make sure. What…

That one is the pits. Nobody wins there.

I saw this ad for the first time about a week ago. I spent the next 48 hours doing nothing but thinking and talking about it. Apparently everyone I knew had seen it and just gone on with their lives.

I need Michelle Obama to come to my house and execute her closet philosophy all over my mess of a wardrobe.

As someone who this survey categorizes as an old, let me start the old complaining right now.

There are lots of people in the world that believe very strongly in some bad things. The fact that someone believes something strongly does not insulate the belief or the people practicing the belief from fair criticism.

And anyone who's interested in Ira Glass should head over to How Was Your Week, Julie Klausner's podcast, and find the episode on which he and his wife were her interview guests. Big surprise, they're utterly charming and lovely with each other.

Wow. I'm going to have to admit I am not at all familiar with this MRA stuff — I know it's a thing, but I've never gotten into it.

The best. It's often unabashedly feminist. Leslie Knope is the Mary Tyler Moore of the new millenium. With puppy parties. And yet, all that was maybe not even the best part of that episode — Treat Yo Self!

Another vote for Parks & Rec being the best. It sets the bar. The women are awesome, and the show doesn't have to present the men as less-than for the women to shine. Everybody gets a chance to be awesome, which actually looks like life. It is super-funny. I li-trally fall in love with it anew every week.
