I sure as shit hope so.

Well, how progressive of her.

I like the term 'weight loss porn' more than 'thinspo' because this isn't just fascinating to an unhealthy level for people who are actively dieting/trying to 'catch' an eating disorder, this is an issue on a societal level. Judging by the responses to these posts, this is something we need to start working on NOW…

Yes, its weight loss porn and this country is obsessed.

I think there is a bit more to it than that. Her being proud of what she did is one thing, and so is her posting it on a forum of her own choosing. I'm not sure that this particular accomplishment is a good choice for reposting on this particular forum, both because of the heated discussions it tends to inspire and…

I don't really like before and afters, but notice the major difference it makes when she styles her hair and does her makeup. Yeah, she looks like a different person, because she made herself look different! Woo! Congrats, I guess? I don't really dig that we live in a culture where this makes it onto the goddamned…

I just don't understand this judge's capacity to empathize with a rapist who led a teenage girl to suicide. Something tells me the judge has got a shoddy past.

As much as I love me some Jon Stewart, I will miss Oliver's sexxy Carlos Danger dance.

This may seem crazy to say (re: type) aloud (re: on the internet) but one of the first thoughts that went through my head upon reading this news is how those women are feeling. My initial thought is that it isn't so clear cut and simple as exultation at his death or anger at him not serving any actual time... Either…

Absolutely progress, and very nice to see, but "I am not the biggest fan of abortion" just makes me very tired. Everyone is always sure that abortion is bad until they need it. And then it's still bad in general; it's just okay for them because they really needed it. This is just as true (if not more so) for the…

Its like rai-aiiiin on your wedding day.

"Saddest dreams/most terrifying nightmares" will be the name of my biopic for the year 2013, and it will star Fred Willard as President Obama and a series of famous internet cats playing myself. At the end of the movie I will fall in with this guy and we will live "happily ever after" until I throttle him half to…

This reads like a way-too-long Shouts & Murmurs first draft.

I was reading this and picturing...complete with accent.

I went to a very family-friendly nudist camp every year for 15 years and I never once saw a cock ring. I'm not saying "I never saw once = it must be sexually deviant", but this is my 'insider' point of view.

I'm a little embarrassed that reading the word 'nude' made me giggle for the first couple of paragraphs.

Okay, so I'm very uncomfortable that someone recorded this person doing a workout at a gym. That's extremely rude and a total invasion of privacy.

Because the El train is stupidly set up with aisles of seats and fewer poles so the trains fit fewer people. It's also more awkward to stand on the El than on the L (the MTA train I take). Chicago just does things the dumb way a lot.

I was thinking something totally different. I think a bigger issue than STDs (men may have less impact from some, but we're equally susceptible to most) or pregnancy (women have more reproductive choice to terminate an unplanned pregnancy than men do)...

I would think the reason this type of casual encounter might be…

I think this article does a GREAT job delving into the social reasons why women may not currently be as open to causal sex . But, even if we were able to overcome the social issues somehow, I honestly wonder if it's realistic to think that women could ever be as into the idea of casual hookups as men are. The danger…
