I find it weird, if they want white women with curly hair to know that we can use the product, that they used straight-haired white women in the advertisement. If they want to expand into DevaCurl’s market, I am baffled by this commercial from that standpoint as well.

This won’t work for every couple, but I find that my husband generally is willing to go down on me when he isn’t in the mood for intercourse, and the act of doing it turns him on, and then the maintenance sex turns into sexy sex.

I’m so glad you said that. I’ve always had a higher sex drive than my husband (I could easily go every day and twice on Sundays), but now he’s in his early 40s and I’m in my early 30s, and the disparity is stark. He could go 2 weeks to 1 month in between. Adding to the problem? he works from home, which means he…

I will be using “Letters from Phil Collins to Genesis” at some point in the future.

“Her daughter was told to sit in the computer lab for that half-hour and read a book.”

Texas does not have as large a percentage non-white population as Hawaii. No state does.

My California city has a school named after Robert E. Lee. I was driving by and I was like, “What the fuck is that doing here?”

Ivanka is FLOTUS. It takes some fucking hubris for a man who has repeatedly been accused of harboring sexual feelings for his daughter to make her his First Lady, but there it is.

Romance novels are like comic books to me in that I do not look down on the genre at all, but I have no idea where to start, because it is huge.

Needs more stars.

Is it based on the husband?

We had a beige Riviera in the 80s. I viscerally hate beige cars.

This will give him more time to devote to his next book, Aggravated Assaulting Gandhi, or Vehicular Manslaughtering Elizabeth I.

Thank you! Yeah, I am happy for everyone who does what they want, having kids-wise. I am consistently astounded by people who think it’s cool to pressure people on this issue.

When my husband and I got married, we knew we wanted kids. At a wedding a few months later, everyone who found out we were newlyweds asked us if we were planning to have kids. We said “Yes, that’s the plan.” No other elaboration. We heard later everyone said we were “baby crazy.” Apparently we weren’t sufficiently…

Thank you!

I know some happily married mothers, and a very happily divorced mother. But I wouldn’t say any of the SAHMs I know seem happy. And the thing is, I totally respect the choice to be a SAHM, and would consider it if it were in any way a financial possibility for us. But it seems like it is way harder to be happy at it…

I just found out yesterday that I am pregnant, and it is really good to hear someone say that.

“The South didn’t need to use slave labor and could have abolished it. They were NEVER in the foreseeable future going to abolish slave labor.”

And...that now $23 tee shirt still looks like it cost $3.
