I recommend the documentary After Tiller about the awesome doctors that do late term abortions. They are awesome because they take care of women in extreeme situations. You should watch it if you are interested in this question.

It has happened to me :(

Are you sure a recent BA graduates in physics can’t work as software engineers? Because when I graduated with a math major worked in a consulting firm doing a job that could be considered “economist” or maybe “data analyst” or maybe even just “programmer”.

People with a physics degree can do a bunch of well paid things. http://www.payscale.com/research/US/De…,_Physics/Salary

It’s not stigma. The data backs that up. You may know a person without a college degree that makes good money but the college degree premium has been increasing over the years. It used to be that college graduates made 1.4 times what high school graduates made. The number is now 1.6. the truth is that a college degree…

We Mexicans simultaneously get all the welfare while stealing all the jobs in this side of the border while taking the manufacturing jobs to Mexico using unfair NAFTA. Aren't we amazing??? You guys should admire us because we are winners. We win. In fact if you chose a Mexican for president you may get all the jobs…

I just finished the book last night. It was great! I enjoyed it so much and I keep on learning from Lindy! She is a great writer. I highly recommend it.

Unexpected culture shock: not everyone uses Vapo Rub for all ailments like my people (Mexicans) do.

Lindy West also used to write for Jezebel and her book just came out. She is super funny.

Ha ha I am Mexican so I would just walk back.

He’s a bully and a pretty unsophisticated one and people want him to be president! This election is really eye opening. I had too much faith in American voters. Now I am wondering whether I want to raise children in this country given how many people seem to love and admire bullies.

Well I have a good job and I am not young (some women in this forum would opine I should not try to have kids, my time has passed and it would be selfish or something :)). Time is running out for me so I can't wait. And just like I have my own compelling reasons to try to have a kid before my husband finishes his…

Advisors are nuts.

If you look for any “pregnancy” gaps in my favorite math professor’s publication record you’ll find none. She told me she just wrote many papers at once and they just came out in stages. I’m not saying that’s what all women should do. I’m just saying people (both men and women) can manage so that having a kid doesn't…

My husband is currently doing his PhD. He was told not to have kids while in grad school. I told him I am glad we can hide any pregnancy and future children from his department chair since I would be the one having them. I am sad the women in his program do not have that privilege.

I once had an Italian boss. He simultaneously proclaimed he was a champion for women because he had two daughters and sexually harrased me.

I know a formar student of that program at NYU and I completely believe Branch.

I want a t-shirt that says: Not a 10 so I’m with her. I’d wear it everywhere.

Latinos of all ages are also politically apathetic (and I’m Mexican, I see it first hand). I think the party has some responsibility to bear there.

Yes. I did not like the tone of his “condemnation”. He started by saying that his campaign wants fair rules. It really sounded like he was justifying violent behavior.
