And it is only 7% failure if used perfectly. You have pay close attention and there is no room for error.

They have socialized medicine there. Whore pills, IUD, use something.

Ugh. How condescending. Women don’t misremember their periods. We might not know the exact date (as in Jan 16) but we know that it started on Monday afternoon the first week of this month.

My obgyn would strongly disagree with that.

Something I have found that stops nipping is speaking the dog’s language. Yip like a puppy who has been bitten too hard. The dog will understand and not want to hurt you.

When politicians talk about the economy, they talk about the stock market and corporate profits.

I get great pleasure from listening to skinny people swear when I ride past them up a hill on a bike that costs less than their wheels, so I hear you.

I am going to have to look that up.

I discovered during my first ultra that the best meal I have ever had was bowl of boiled potatoes, M&Ms, and pickles, sprinkled liberally with salt.

I started doing endurance sports in the last few years, and one of the things that I have learned is that there is always someone crazier than you. My friends insist that I don’t get to call anyone crazy because I have run ultramarathons and done Ironman’s, but I am not the nut who runs or bikes the Iditarod or who…

I think you probably could. I am an overweight, 45-year old woman, and I have done two ironmans and two ultramarathons. There is no way that I could go out and do it again the next day, but a single one is certainly doable. I could get in better shape if I watched what I ate and really dedicated myself to the…

I think that is one of the big reasons we need to get rid of tipping and make restaurants pay at least minimum wage. Servers should not have to tolerate sexual harassment or be psychological profilers for every customer in order to get paid.

That first quote is so gross.

If you get derailed, you won’t be a professional anymore and will stay home raising babies and cleaning house like god intended, so the two categories become mutually exclusive.

I have noticed that too. The people who are saying it isn’t that bad always focus on straight, white man doing something to a straight, white woman.

Agreed. Plus, even a single drop of water at a time will eventually erode granite. The small slights like men constantly talking over you or expecting you to take notes for them wear you down.

I get annoyed by how many people try to define feminism and say that it has to fit their definition of it. However, as a general rule, if your argument is the same one used by MRA douchebags, it is not feminist.

Same. I haven’t really paid attention to him since Freaks and Geeks, but he has always seemed like the type of entitled, arrogant jerk who would sexually assault women and pretend that they should be flattered by it.

Keanu Reeves can’t act, but I have never heard a bad word said against him as a person.

It is good to hear that he did that. I remember when Bill Cosby went on the Colbert report shortly after people were really starting to pay attention to the accusations. Colbert stroked his ego and never mentioned the accusations. I lost a lot of respect for him.
