True dat, if Reagan and Kennedy had more men on their Secret Service detail, maybe they won't have gotten shot.

For years, everyone in the world has misunderstood Kristen Stewart's compressed emotional range. They thought it meant she was a limited actress; it means nothing of the kind. She is John Wayne being forced to play the Maureen O'Hara character. Give her a rail to lean against during a sunset, a military jacket, a

I can be concerned about menstruating women

Here's an easy guide to cultural sensitivity:

Oh, man, I have a friend, a VERY GOOD FRIEND, a bridesmaid, I am the godmother to her daughter. And I absolutely hate her social media presence.
