I want to comment just to agree with you. I haven't seen Valkyrie, but the movies I have seen him in have always been enjoyable. He comes off a little crazy in interviews, but he's been wildly famous for years and has more money than I'd know what to do with; I'd be a little crazy too. He's never hurt anyone and,…

Mosquito Coast is one of my favorite movies/books ever and I never hear it mentioned!

Umm, okay, so the only thing stopping all these white people from getting married and having Duggar-sized families is the legality of civil unions and the possibility of gay marriage becoming legal sometime in the future?

Thank you for your reply! It's probably too early to know how my son will 'scan'—I think he looks pretty ambiguous right now and I've been approached by strangers asking "what" he is—but I'll be happy if he can someday share an opinion like yours.

I'm curious about that as well. I have a biracial son. He's only four months old right now, but he has a lot more exposure to whites than blacks. He obviously sees his dad and me every day—but the extended family that lives nearby is predominantly white. He goes to a white babysitter three days a week and a Hispanic…

I'll admit that I've cried over a haircut, but I've never made the hairdresser cry or gotten upset to point that email apologies (plural?) with a promise not to kill anyone felt necessary or even pertinent.

Am I the only one who thinks that's a cute name?

I feel a little bad for Jessica Simpson. I blew up in my pregnancy. I was starving all the time. In my first two trimesters, the hunger would wake me up in the night. I couldn't go more than four hours without eating. It felt uncontrollable. I didn't get morning sickness. I just got insatiable hunger. Near the end, I…

I usually cover up when I'm out in public because I'm more comfortable like that and because limiting what he can see calms my baby and makes it easier/quicker to feed him, but that's my personal choice and I wouldn't impose it on anyone who is comfortable uncovered plus, even with a blanket, I've had people…

I don't know. For me, at least, it's not a love of Nadya Suleman ... what she did is still shockingly stupid in my mind, but to deny the children support because their mom was selfish and short-sighted doesn't make sense. And, like Effie says above me, at least Nadya Suleman can admit that she needs help instead of…

Correlation and causation are not the same thing. It’s an interesting study, but if WalMart weren’t involved/being blamed, I think we’d see a lot more reminders of this. Instead, it’s just fun to share stories about how much we all hate WalMart. I hate it too—but I shop at Target so I’m not any better than the WalMart…

Thank you for writing this. All the comments about her cavalier attitude being in poor taste are making me crazy. I'm not a Sarah Silverman fan—I just don't generally think she's very funny—but pro-choice and women's rights and supporting body autonomy means supporting cavalier attitudes as much as anything else.

The other side of this is the shame thrown at legitimate loving relationships between white men and Asian women. When my brother started dating his wife, our sister openly announced, in front of everyone, that he was just going through an Asian phase. My sister-in-law is Korean. My brother is white. Neither were happy…

This is wonderful. Thank you for sharing and congratulations. I'm so glad this story got cross-posted.

I'm holding my almost-four-month-old in my arms right now. Your description of this feeling being similar to a high school crush is soooo true. I'm obsessed with him in a way I never anticipated and it's wonderful. Congratulations on your daughter.

I'm already linked and none of that stuff is happening. Facebook doesn't know what I'm posting here. Gawker readers don't know my real name.

What if I linked to the wrong facebook account? I have an account for my dog (yes, really—I wanted to tag pictures of him) and I think I accidentally linked my gawker accounts to that one. I guess it doesn't matter much. I'm just curious to know if I can change it.

My partner's mom delivered him that way. She has absolutely no memory of labor or childbirth. She was put under. She woke up with a baby.

Everyone wanted me to go drug-free. Why anyone else should get to want anything for my pregnancy, I don't know, but I actually listened a little and announced that I was going to hold off on the drugs for as long as I could—I wasn't opposed to them, per se, but I wanted to see what I could do and how long I could hold…

I didn't take it to be anti-Camilla. I thought it was an off-the-wall comment about the kids' faces being painted....crazed-like.
