This is the same system that ruled that teenage girls are too immature to decide to get an abortion (but not too immature to raise a child, I guess). Boggle away. Drink until you die.

Because the rapist, who is a Kentuckian, as am I, and I reside in Tennessee, has paternity rights in Kentucky and Tennessee. I would’ve had to co-parent with my rapist.

As long as you tip extra on top of the Salty standard 100% tip.

“Chicago Police told NBC News that they do not comment on pending litigation” Unless it involves Jussie Smollett. 

I don’t think Cardi’s music is any good. As a matter of fact, I consider it trash. But Cardi as a person? Her determination is hard as nails and all I can do is respect her. I appreciate quite a number of things she says in general - from her surprisingly pointed views on politics to her appreciation of being an Afro-L…

“A woman telling a man she will have sex with him and then not having sex with him is WORSE than a man raping a teenager!”

Yes. Especially the men whose homes looked like they were hit by tornados. That goes beyond being a slob or disorganized. It’s a reflection of how they’re feeling.

Exactly.  Self-care in a lot of ways is about convincing yourself that you are worth it.  I have been working with my therapist on it, and doing things like getting a massage, meditating, or just being mentally kind to myself.  Particularly in the housekeeping arena, because as my therapist points out, being harsh…

This.  I have major depressive disorder and in the past few years my housekeeping, which was never great to begin with, went completely to shit.  Though I am female, I identified with a couple of the straight guys this season and am glad Karamo suggested that it could be depression.  Sure, there are topically…

its not the only reason, fact it yes that did cause, but she had problems both before and after.

Totally agree with you (and disagree with the premise of the article.) I think there’s a time and a place to discuss why men don’t do their share of the housework, but “Queer Eye” isn’t it. The show has always been framed as warm fuzzy lifestyle inspiration, and the self-care angle is a major part of that. Plus the…

A 20-day water fast seems a lot like an eating disorder.

“Taking care of oneself” is fucking radical thinking for a lot of these folks. I personally know how easy it is to fall into the trap of taking care of everyone else, or thinking you’re taking care of everyone else but really you’re taking care of no one, and watching QE 2.0 is like watching the highlights from a…

Self-care often sounds wishy washy or frivolous. For women, it’s a bubble bath and sheet mask, and for men it’s rarely even brought up. But in reality it’s all those things you mentioned. Self-care isn’t just “treat yo’self” and little luxuries, it’s taking care of yourself, making smart decisions that will benefit…

DEF.IN.ITE.LY.

Honestly, I think some self-care issues may be wrapped up in $$$ issues too. Typically I would just do the cheapest things available, but recently I got a sizeable bonus, so I was like, let’s do self-care in the form of personal training sessions and upgrade furniture from IKEA to Wayfair! The amount of guilt I have…

I think the reason “self-care” has superficial or negative connotations is it’s abuse by the capitalist machine to sell us shit, so it’s kind of been diluted and warped to mean navel-gazing consumerism in the name of “wellness.” 

I honestly think that Karamo’s title of “culture” is silly-sounding, but (as other threads are pointing out) his actual education in social work, while necessary AF and exactly what he does, is too stigmatized to be presented in a straightforward manner.

i’m not surprised that after almost a decade of death threats and harassment from insane conspiracy theorists that one of the targets of them decided to kill themselves. and those pieces of shit will use this to say that he was going to come out as a crisis actor and the government had him killed. alex jones should be…

Omelette that happen.
