This is the ONLY episode I totally remember. She finally made a connection with the boy she didn't get along with in class and then he was gone forever. As a kid, I understood that she did the right thing, but the idea that he was just gone never really helped me feel like that would be what I'd do. I think it would…

This is great! Thanks so much for posting it!

I'd like to ask for your citation on this. It sounds like made up bullshit to me.

But no one writes those things on the list of what they want. Because no one WANTS slips, they just happen anyway. And you are right to think some people don't realize that, but I think most people do.

If you like that, you should read Backlash, which is basically a whole book on that topic, and still really interesting and relevant, in my opinion.

This is fascinating. Thanks for posting the link!

Woah. That is scary. I'd guess that's around the time a lot of women who aren't trying first realize they're pregnant. This is all so depressing.

This is really random, but my best friend and I have won two, yes TWO, different contests and have been able to meet Kelly (and the second time we met her she REMEMBERED us!). I don't pretend to know her professionally, but we ended up on tour with her for an entire week, and I couldn't have been more impressed. She…

I'm in love with mine. It is Mirena, which still has a bit of hormones, but I have a friend with Paraguard, and she is a big fan as well. Good luck!

This may be dumb, but does Planned Parenthood offer payment plans? Usually it ends up costing less over time to get an IUD over the pill. It maybe be a dumb idea, but I figured I'd ask in case that is something you can look into.

The good news is that pretty soon they are going to have to be covered under ACA (that is my understanding anyway). People react really differently to all types of birth control, but getting an IUD was the best decision I ever made. I hope your insurance covers them soon so you are able to see if it would work for you.

I went to an all-women's college, after 12 years of co-ed school. I haven't had a lot of trouble speaking up, but I noticed a real difference in my classes with students who normally were much more shy. I think single-sex education isn't about pretending what the real world is. It's more about building up (at least in…

I feel really mixed about this. I didn't grow up planning my dream wedding, but now that I am engaged and actually planning a wedding, I wish I had a bit more of a clue. I will never understand the people who enjoy looking at centerpieces, but if I WAS one of those people, I wouldn't have to spend so much time trying…

Yes, it's telling that he decided not to talk to the person who is actually accused - didn't even TRY until nine days later. That seems pretty weird.

I'm in the same boat, and also posted a ring pic, and now I feel really embarrassed. Is everyone talking about me behind my back?

Don't have it anywhere where the majority of people need to fly. It's outrageous!

I grew up in South Bend, and when everything with Penn State came out my first thought was "well, this could have easily happened at ND too."

He wasn't even taken out of football practice. He wasn't even questioned until she was dead (her being dead isn't his fault, but it is NDSP's fault that they waited 15 days to even ask him what happened). So, regardless of how much grey you see in this situation, it merited more investigation than it received.

I see what you're saying, but the fact that the NDSP waited five days after Seeberg killed herself to even question the accused player says a lot. As does their treatment of the Seeberg family.
