We youngest GenX-ers (late 70s) also have Boomer parents and Greatest Generation grandparents. We’re a really weird little low-birthrate in-between generation — in a lot of ways we have more in common with millennials than GenXers (e.g. we’re the oldest people to have been fucked over by a lot of student loan debt),…

Maybe you should sit down for this...

The average number of partners for Millenials is 8? Like ever? My friends and I must be making up for whole platoons of celibate-until-marriage fundies.

oh god we need more of you

I'm gonna assume some places would tell her she is too old too adopt? She gives me a weird vibe from a previous interview I read. Seemed like a collector of children and obsessed with pregnancy and youth.

The records were destroyed under laws protecting the identities of victims of sexual crimes. The petition to destroy them was submitted by the parents of a minor child who lives at his parents address. So we know who petitioned for the destruction and why, the worst thing is it confirms one of his sisters as a victim…

I’m of white European descent. I got the enzymes. I’ll eat all y’all’s ice cream.

Its not normal, at all. However (unpopular opinion incoming) considering the family he is a part of I don’t necessarily think its so outrageous to think he really did not understand, at 13/14 years old, the impact of his actions. What do you think he was told about sexuality by that age? Not defending him or the…

My memory is fuzzy now, but when they caught him, he was sent off to whatever fundy re-education camp and came back with a shaved head. There was pretty rampant speculation online at the time over just what it was, though the consensus was something sexual since it was never addressed. I’m surprised it took this long…

I’ve talked to a number of such women, and really what happens is they are in jobs sort of like that, but they do want to take a year or two off. Or maybe they go back and it’s just crazy working so much with a baby at home. In any event, they start staying home, and then the husband starts working more and more.…

Either it’s an allowance and you’re treating your wife the same way you would treat a child, or it’s a bonus and you’re treating your wife the same way you would treat an employee. These are not great options.

The reason I like Stan and Peggy together is that, unlike Mark (remember him?) and Abe, he loves he for who she is and not who he thinks she should be. The woman he knows and loves is the “work Peggy”, the REAL Peggy. He won’t hold her back because he understands how important her work is to her. I thought it was…

Not to pull strings on your feelings about the episode. But, his first reaction was to come home immediately. Sally told him not to and to convince Betty to let Henry take custody of Bobby and Gene. Then Betty tells him she basically doesn’t want him there and that its in the best interest of the kids if her brother…

See, I thought respecting Betty’s wishes and not rushing home was incredibly unselfish of him. That conversation they had on the phone was the most agency he’s given her. Both his daughter and the mother of his children wanted the kids to have stability that he knew he couldn’t offer, especially in the state he was…

How FABULOUS did Trudy look? :-)

You surely understand that this is fiction, not reality, and that liberties are expected to be taken?

I too had been thinking / hoping when the other female execs at McCann seemed to have it out for Peggy that Peggy and Joan would team up. They’re still looking out for one another, I imagine. But Peggy is so good at what she does, and if you think back to when Don asked her what she saw for her future: Peggy wants to…

I was actually very happy with Peggy and Joan’s final stories. The characters are foils for each other. Joan has historically relied on her looks or on the men in her life in order to get ahead, and here in the finale, she says goodbye to a perfect man offering her anything in order to forge a new career path alone,…

I really don’t think Sally hates Don. He might think she does, but I don’t think she actually does. She just sees him as a flawed person, and she’s also angry and sad and scared.
