My mom did the same kind of thing in Baskin Robbins. My sister and I were arguing, and she turned to everyone in the store and belted out the lyrics to “Black Velvet” at the top of her lungs. No joke, all it took from then on was saying “knock it off or I’ll start singing.” We never acted up in public again.

All I know is that one time when I was 14, I was being a total bitch to my mother as we were walking down Oxford St in London. Instead of getting cross and telling me I was being an asshole, my mother (a creature of mirth and magic and farts) proceeded to drop her shopping bags and began to perform a jig. It was a…

Yes, but Celiacs also want the GF Mocha Cheesecake Snack Packs every once in a while. Especially when the celiac is a teenager.

Bingo. I am not a nutritionist, but I managed a nutritionist’s practice once, and it seems to me that real Celiac sufferers are not looking for packaged convenience foods with the gluten removed; they’re looking for guidance on creating a balanced diet of whole foods that have no gluten to begin with.

Agreed! I have a pair of much older Lululemon yoga pants that aren’t transparent and don’t pill or rip, and I definitely have the chub rub going on.

His dad called him out on it so fast. He told him anything boys could do girls can do too. the boy thinks he knows everything and just rolled his eyes.

The parents can at least lessen the impact of those messages outside the home, thank god. When I was five my neighbour informed both our families that when we grew up he was going to own two transport trucks and be a long haul trucker with one, while I lived in the other one taking care of our children. I called him a…

This!

I mean, you can raise your child to know that women are people but in today’s society every other person outside of your home will remind him that in fact we are not. With their actions, with their laws, with their assumptions, with their words.

All that I can say is that I’m glad they took this seriously & handled it promptly, & none of the students were hurt because of this entitled shit stain.

Oh wow, another misogynist woman-hating teenager who wants to murder women en masse because he was rejected by a female. This shit is getting real old. People - stop raising your boys to think that they are *owed* a woman. We are people, we have agency, we are NOT prizes that one can “win” by being nice or because you…

I assume the Ben Carson solution would have been for all the cheerleaders to send him nudes at once...

Jesus kid get your nudes from the internet like the rest of us.

They’re so concerned about ending the autism “epidemic” that they’re creating actual epidemics out of preventable diseases. Fucking incredible.

Even. If. Vaccines. Did. Cause. Autism. Which. They. Do. Not. An. Autistic. Child. Is. Still. An. Alive. Child.

This conversation needs kittens and puppies.

She’s not in charge of pursuing the criminal case. All she can do is report it. After that it’s up to the police and the DA. It says right there in the article that the LA investigators are reviewing the criminal case.

This just reminds me more and more of the Jimmy Savile case, though I think there has only been one (?) accusation of Cosby abusing an under 18 year old, and so far his victims have all been living women.

If she was underage, drinking at a party, why isn’t there any liability on the host or home owner, Hef? It’s hardly likely he was “carding” his guests or putting them in under 21 wrist bands
