Totally. It’s unfortunate and ridiculous that people see women wanting paid leave as somehow “greedy,” but hey I’ll take progress where I can get it. Funny how when men want something it gets taken so much more seriously...

Yeah, I think it’s really important to emphasize paid leave for men and women. Especially since the gendered income gap is based largely on the fact that women gravitate toward jobs that pay less but have more flexible scheduling, since they tend to shoulder greater burdens outside of work (as mothers, or taking care…

You’re going to feel so stupid when you learn about time zones...

Dead Head?

Yeah. I have never used the term “adulting” before but after rolling my eyes so hard at this article, I might just start...

As a liberal from NC with tons of awesome, compassionate, politically active friends and family, good lookin out!

I know you’re being tongue in cheek, but this is dumb. The population of a state can’t really do anything about their governor making asinine statements, except express anger and disagreement, as I’m sure many people are.

Well, it is possible to hang out with friends separately. You don’t have to be exclusively a package deal as a couple.

I imagine you didn’t mean to be rude, and I am also a Bernie supporter, but Hillary Clinton is a woman.

Yeah, my gyno actually told me not to use a cup with an iud because the little vacuum seal that it forms can dislodge your iud when you remove the cup. But my iud made me have basically nonexistent periods so luckily it was no big deal!

Did you not read the article? That is exactly what the author did, bring a helper along to look after the infant while she was speaking or otherwise occupied.

Actually, they can complain about whatever the fuck they want. In this case, she is relating to the story by talking about how she is working hard to get the best prices for her large wedding (not really even complaining btw). That’s what this blog is about, sharing our experiences with weddings. You and your troll…

I dunno, Marion. I am a feminist and I was pretty un-separated from a man last night, if you know what I mean

YES. As a farmer, I can’t begin to explain to people in office jobs how much Fall means to me. Work has slowed down, my home isn’t drowning in piles of vegetables and swarms of fruit flies,it’s actually enjoyable to be out in the field now that I don’t have sweat dripping into my eyes constantly (also why I wish I had…

We get it; your experience is literally the worst anyone has ever experienced ever and no one can tell you differently or talk about their own situation without fearing your righteous fury. You are a true martyr.

Poor people aren’t dicks. But you sure are one.

Your response was so much better than mine would have been. What an asshole. Everyone who is not a moron understands what you meant, and did not think you were saying your situation was literally the worst in the entire history of the world, which apparently it has to be in order to be allowed to express an opinion,…

Do you ever go to The Pinhook in Durham? Fun LGBT place with lots of events. Legends in Raleigh is more of your typical “gay club” scene. And pretty much anywhere in Carrboro is gonna be full of artists, some hipsters, hippies, and very lgbt-friendly (I live in Carrboro, it’s great.)

Obviously I don’t know your situation exactly, but I had to deal with something similar with my sweet sweet 2 year old pit bull. When I got her from the shelter she was not good with dogs, very insecure and prone to lashing out if a dog made any kind of quick movement around her. My boyfriend has a dog who she had…

Me too! Which small town in NC do you think is first?
