Less math, more a comprehensive lit review spanning 39 peer reviewed studies over 3 decades. I wouldn't take the word of a Slate blogger as medical advice, but if you look at the journal article it makes a strong argument. Much like with drinking while pregnant, many of the recommendations are rooted in the idea…

American soldiers sell young women into sex slavery, huh? Is it possible to be critical of one's own country without resorting to ludicrous false equivalences like this?

They kidnap hundreds of prepubescent girls and force them into sham marriages? When did this happen?

It's Kentucky-speak. There's a very weird way some men speak and you have to wrap you brain a bit. He's actually trying to say:

why didnt she just go out with him?

No, it hasn't been a central thesis anti-rape activism on campuses. It's been a central tenet that there is an explosion of violence (of all kinds) in the late teens and early twenties, and that because huge amounts of people of that age partake in higher education as an institution, it makes it comparatively easy to…

Man, I dunno. I think in the same way we have to take into consideration that the UCSB shootings didn't happen in a vacuum without misogyny (remember, he killed his male roommates first), we have to take into consideration that this didn't happen in a vacuum without anger against police. I'm not saying the two…

Too much junk in the trunk.

While pregnant my best friend called me and this was our convo:
BF: I named it
Me: what?
BF: the baby...I'm going to call it Neila...do you know why?
Me: um, no
BF: well, that spells alien backwards and I have a damn alien in me and I want it out!
Me: hahahahahaha that is amazing
BF: well I googled it…

It's Rainer Maria Rilke. "Rainer" (pronounced Rye-ner) is a traditional Germanic name. Rainier is the French from of the name, slightly different pronunciation (Ren-yay).

If I was going to pick a CW show to name my child after, that wouldn't have been the one I would choose. But I'm not very knowledgeable in the area of baby co-branding.

That sounds like the perfect name for New York's Hottest New Nightclub, as debuted by Stefon. "Come to Ssa! It's got everything! Babies with burning diapers! Midgets wearing traffic cones! The Dalai Lama reciting medieval witchcraft poetry! Drinks served in a hobo's old shoe!"

Aston Disick? Looks like Ass Dick to me, and I can guarantee that it would look like that to every idiotic kid in the class, too.

Honestly that would be an improvement. Nevaeh is one of the assiest names I've ever heard. "It's ____ backwards" should never figure into naming criteria.

A British spy thriller character's name would be Rainier, surely? "Reign" is a verb for what the Queen is doing, not a name.

Wow. C'mon, Jezebel, we are better than this.

"looked at porn versus religious sites"

I mean, it isn't the fact that the economy is still hugely unstable if you're not in the highest 1% of the 1%. It isn't that you're worried about your job or you can't afford a wedding. And, I mean, why would they look at women who consume pornography? Everyone knows women absolutely hate sex and think porn is gross.

While I agree with your point about protesters being massively against this man's actions and that he should not be labelled as one of them, I just wanted to say something about what else you said.

The idea that the shooter couldn't possibly be "really" interested in justice or the protests/cause because of his actions is ridiculous. Shooting cops and being really into the current movement right now are not mutually exclusive.
