Okay, here's what you can say: Her is a movie that works on multiple levels. The set design alone was amazing. (I loved the recurrence of orange. I don't know what it meant but I liked it.). The prediction of what computers and smartphones will look like in the future was genius and seemed really prescient. (And the…

Thanks. It has been years since I've spoken Japanese.

I think it means crazy, actually. Or a mix of crazy and dumb, maybe?

I sort of love Poppin, although I haven't bought anything from them yet.

Sometimes I give my husband two cards, so that he can get something tame I don't mind the boys reading, and then later I can give him my real card, which is NSFK (not safe for kids).

Thanks for the link. I enjoyed reading this article, too, and identify with its author about the whole pushing-up-against-the-refrigerator thing.

Right, but these can both be true, because she doesn't cover sexual satisfaction in egalitarian/traditional marriages.

Presumably 1.5 times is an average. But true, if it's just 1.5 times less, no reason to get ruffled by this article. And you could be right that the quality is different. She doesn't cover that topic; she's just discussing the surprising findings of the studies.

She doesn't say that having an equal relationship kills sex. She just says that various studies have found that it decreases frequency of sex.

In my case I'm the older woman. I have a friend in her early twenties, and I'm in my forties. She's delightful company, and I miss her now that we no longer work together. I know I'm playing a sort of mentor role in her life (and she's learned a ton about feminism!), and it feels like such an honor to be that person…

Ugh, I'm the one who snores, not him. I don't want an uncomfortable pillow, however. I only snore when I have a cold, and he pokes me pretty gently. I'll save the money, and keep using my wonderfully comfortable pillow.

The teenagers at my house remain uninterested, so the hubs and I are going on our own, dignity be damned.

This is so sweet. She reminds me of my mother,who has been slowly sliding into dementia for many years now. During the polar vortex (and any other day with subzero temps last month), she called me to "see if we were okay." I'm not sure what she thought, that we don't have a house to live in? Or we don't have indoor…

Being clear and upfront is key. We always do cards for Valentine's Day, birthdays, Mother's Day, Father's Day, and our anniversary. (He's great at writing romantic cards for me.) We do gifts for Christmas and birthdays. For V Day and our anniversary, we go out to dinner and a movie. Since we both love movies it works…

Not Quite a Husband and Private Arrangements by Sherry Thomas, and almost everything by Jennifer Crusie or Susan Elizabeth Phillips.

Preach it, sister.

Is there anyone else here who doesn't mind being unfriended? It doesn't bother me, for a few reasons. First, if I unfriend people (which I do), then there's no reason why people can't unfriend me. Second, I never notice it when someone unfriends me, and it usually takes me months to figure out that it happened, if I…

How did that person know? It usually takes me months to figure out someone unfriended me.

I unfriended a sister-in-law and a brother-in-law because neither of them ever posted anything. I felt like they could learn a lot about me, but I couldn't learn anything about them, and that felt uneven and a bit creepy — or at least like a one-sided conversation. Neither of them ever said a thing. I wasn't close to…

No, not me! I still love and admire Jennifer Lawrence and in 2015, I'll still be loving Anna Kendrick. I get sick of ubiquitous songs in the radio (I feel no need to hear Royals ever again), but if a person who seems to be everywhere is talented, smart, and funny, then I've got no problem with that.
