How come I hear MRAs saying feminism is responsible for all the aspects of society that are negative for men, while also saying that men have been the worse-off gender for all of history (for most of which there was no feminism)? What’s the deal with that?

We found the end of the line at Rockefeller Plaza and then eavesdropped on the couple in front of us to kill time. The woman was a brunette from Switzerland, visiting New York City on a music residency. She wore a red windbreaker, gold American Apparel leggings, and black oxfords. An upside-down triangle had been…

I feel like the problems with our elections is the same as the problems with feminism. You can’t jam your ideas down someone else’s throat. Have an opinion, be vocal about your opinion, but express yourself in a non-threatening way because you’ll alienate people who could otherwise be persuaded if you approached them…

Starred for the Dough love. The coffee shop in my building sells their doughnuts, and it makes me glad for the 10 minute walk to the subway so I can at least make an effort of walking it all off so I don’t gain a million pounds from delicious, delicious doughnuts.

Lemon poppyseed from Dough is my JAM.

Thank you for not sleeping on this rudeness.

I like to make something easy like banana bread or shortbread cookies. The idea is to make something familiar that wont get frustrating.

As a perma-single sad-sack human dumpster fire...I can’t really say I feel a lot of sympathy for these guys.

And again, let me assure you that there is nothing in testosterone or masculinity (the non-toxic, non-patriarchal, innate kind) that makes men rape. Most men are kind, caring and thoughtful. Most men are not violent. Violent and abusive tendencies have little to do with gender, and assuming that only men are to blame…

yes, but not of “human nature”. I am doing research in neuroscience, and I can tell you all this “testosterone is to blame” is complete BS. male to female rape is more common, but I am pretty sure that if women would have more power than men, they wouldn’t be any better. but, there are and always will be exceptions.…

I believe you’re a nice person and your heart is in the right place, so don’t take this personally. Neither women nor victims of rape or sexual assault need the guilty histrionic self-flagellation of an innocent man. It adds nothing, it solves nothing, it makes this conversation about your guilt - and unless you’ve…

I am really sorry for what you went through. But what bothers me about posts like you, is that they assume that only men are inherently violent. I am very sure, that women have such urges too, often however we learn to direct this aggressions towards ourselves. Anyways, I am a woman, and I have this darkness in myself…

“I’m beginning to think all men, no matter how good we might want to believe we are, have a monster like this inside us somewhere that craves rough treatment of another person, as loathsome as that is for me.”

We all live with the cards we are dealt. I don’t want to invalidate your opinions about yourself because only you know your own reality. And I hate when people respond with “It’s probably not as bad as you think.” Sometimes it is EXACTLY that bad. I will say, however, that as a fellow non-confident person, I feel your…

I’m not sure, but to me you sound like you don’t care about it, so it’s not a negative feeling, just... a neutral one. I think that’s fine. I once tried to date this guy who had only negative feelings about himself and he was a fucking drag. He couldn’t stop feeling sorry for himself long enough to improve anything in…

Oh man, my friend is a DJ at Habana. I really hope she doesn’t show her face over there. Ugh.

Yeah seriously, that sandwich sounds amazing.

Um, are you me? I have been super duper cynical, cranky, hate-filled and hating people a lot lately, AND I have been in the market for a good pair of in-ear silicon earbuds (been googling the past week).

Being married to someone with a vastly different sex drive can be extremely difficult. In my case, my husband has a normal sex drive and mine has been completely destroyed by anti-depressant use. It's just... gone... and switching meds never brought it back. In addition I have vaginismus so sex is also painful…
