I went to a Jesuit university that definitely didn't hand out condoms or birth control prescriptions. The health center was notorious for making women take pregnancy tests for any ailment they came in for. I went in freshman year complaining of a sore throat. After a pregnancy test (even though I explained I hadn't

It took me a solid seven years to get to the point where I understood that I was in denial. For the first five at least, I couldn't bring myself to say I had been attacked because obviously, I felt like it was my fault. I think that this kind of behavior is probably more common than anyone realizes, and that's why

I maintained contact with someone who assaulted me because I was trying to convince myself that I had wanted it to happen. I didn't want to admit to myself that I was a person who that could/did happen to, and my responding to his texting was some kind of denial. I'm not saying that's what happened in this case, but

I thought that was my ex boyfriend for a solid ten seconds. Holy hell. I guess I should watch more football because I never noticed this in the three years we were together.

Mr Poole?!?!

That video made me want to die a little bit.

I love Valentine's day, but I love it because of my Mom. Every V-Day morning, she would sneak into our bathrooms and put candy and little presents out, and my brothers and I got cards in our lunch boxes. I've never felt lonely when single, because I always had something to look forward to from my Mom and Dad. I

Counting calories is not ok for a little kid. Teaching your kids to heat healthy and not have too many treats is a great idea. But from the way the little girl is attacking that cake in this video, it looks like she could easily turn into a binger. Associating eating with shame at that young of an age is going to

If I needed a heart transplant, I wouldn't care if it dropped out of Santorum's ass via his own namesake.

It doesn't ring true in either case though. While the median may be 50k for the whole country, the median for these small towns is likely much lower than that. An average doesn't work well either, because, as we've all learned, the income of the top 1% screw that number as well. The only way to get a somewhat

median does not = average

I don't understand how Lauren Conrad raked in $30k per episode of playing a vapid bitch, but these girls can't even pocket enough to live without $400 of child support? According to a friend working at MTV, they are not paid.

I know, it really does. And her family and friends have tried to get her to sever all ties with him, but she still won't block/change her number. I wish there was something we could do to keep her safe, because he scares all of us.

And this is why I want a taser. You harrass me/follow me, I tase you. I really think this would make people second guess being such fuckheads.

I hate that crimes like stalking and rape are always kind of pushed under the rug as the stalkee being overly dramatic. I have a close friend who broke up with her body builder boyfriend over eight months ago, and he regularly calls/emails her, and even shows up outside of her apartment. He passes it off as

Maybe I'm juvenile, but I'm still giggling over Dolce & Banana.

I do not like babies. This baby is adorable. If they all looked like this, I would not dislike them.

"Divorces are very expensive, so she may think that he may not leave her because he can't afford the legal proceedings." Because everyone knows women are so desperate to have a husband they don't care about getting cheated on, as long as the husband stays.

"What you do in your alone time, as long as it's *legal*, is of no business to me, which is why I'm such a proponent of gay marriage." Um gay marriage isn't legal. You know what is illegal? Abortion. Which according to my googling skills, she is opposed to. So it appears that is a hypocritical (republican)

You guys just don't understand love. If you can't share a netflix account with your boyfriend, you certainly shouldn't be sharing bodily fluids.
