I agree with everything you've said. But I still think things change and I would rather have my partner come to me to discuss their needs and desires to see if there was a way to work them out, than have them cheat on me or just decide to leave me because they want more than I can give them.

No, I get that. And I agree that asking for permission to sleep with other women is not going to resolve anything if the real problems are that you are not connecting with your spouse. Opening the relationship shouldn't be about getting away from your spouse, as someone else mentioned.

@small-fox: I don't think there's anything wrong with someone who realizes they are not happy with monogamy going to their partner and having a "I want to be non-monogamous in some way, and if that's not an option for you, I think we should not be together anymore" discussion. That is, ultimately, what the situation

@WillowWeen: But sometimes things change. Sometimes two partners go into a monogamous relationship fully intending to be monogamous and then one or both have a change of heart. It's not entirely uncommon, given our monogamy-normative culture. So if a person finds themselves in that situation, isn't the best option

@shannanigans slash pterodactyl: Or, ya know, you could say no and then try to have an open and honest communication about why he is asking for said pink pass (I didn't see the movie but I'm assuming a pink pass is permission to sleep with another woman).

@pancakes_4_your_face: I was going to say something very similar. Should we all feel bad about having first world problems just because some people are living in third world countries? Because I'm guessing most Jezebel readers/commenters are surfing here from a first world nation.

@jvac88: But it's ultimately unprofessional to do that. You need to take responsiblity as a team player for your hand in the unsuccessful project and apologize and vow to do a better job next time, but trying to disassociate yourself from the project because it came out flawed and pointing the finger of blame on the

@Superawesomerad: As long as the parts are covered that would be covered by a bikini, I don't see what the difference is.

@Blaise Astra Parker: Do you even read or listen to his blog/podcast? Dan's pretty encouraging to fat people about loving themselves for who they are and finding people who are attracted to them and how they deserve to find people who are attracted to them and their bodies. His alleged fatphobia stems from the fact

No, there aren't laws to regulate who becomes parents, but there are laws to regulate people who sexually abuse their children. And what I'm saying is that if you are THAT stupid to trust someone you don't know who you met over the internet and have seen no medical credentials other than his say-so, then you deserve

@marciax3: I couldn't have said it better myself. These women should be punished for their crimes, if only for being so stupid as to endager and abuse their children just for some strange man they met on the internet. How idiotic does a person have to be to trust someone with no credentials who they met online and

@prestocaro: And yet, someone who is responsible for a child should know better than to trust somebody who they've never met who they're talking to on the internet. It's like Internet 101. Hell, it's PARENTING 101. Don't talk to strangers. Don't take candy from strangers.

@AmbiguouslyStraightUno: I think when they say "Gender Neutral Housing" it means you can live in a suite or apartment with someone of the opposite sex. Frosh are probably excluded because freshman dorms are usually only one tiny, tiny room and there is still some subconscious hand-wringing...that or because freshmen

@ICanBe (aka elisa): People are unfunny all the time while trying to be. It doesn't mean they deserve to be sexually assaulted.

@mosaiclobster: Except that the man in question wasn't grabbing a woman's crotch, he was grabbing her breasts. It's VERY different, whether the reverse gender analogy works or not. You don't grab someone's balls. It's sexual assault, whether she felt she was being heroic or not.

Wow, a lot of Jezzie cheering for Rosario Dawson sexually assaulting Paul Rudd while he was in the middle of a SCRIPTED performance. I'm wondering what everyone would think if the genders were reversed here. What if someone bum-rushed a stage, Kanye-style, and groped Rosario inappropriately while she was working?

@smartgal: Except that the point of those black/women/gay/Eskimo only scholarships are to provide support to members of minority groups that are often discriminated against, disadvantaged and passed over for their white, heterosexual male peers.
