I tentatively feel the same way. I think she's simply not very introspective, has followed her greed and maybe has dug a hole that is starting to feel so deep that she feels she needs to continue with what she was doing before (lying, etc.) to try and get out. I think I feel bad because it seems like she needs help…

YES! When I was in college, I'd go out to this empty courtyard at night just so that I could sing and dance without anyone seeing me. I'd like to say I have enough guts to actually do it in front of other people...but it's never the same.

I do remember reading somewhat about that. And that's why I worry about her mental state now and in the future. You hear about runway models and women renowned for their beauty who come out as struggling with their weight constantly. And for someone with a history of being overweight, the whole thing feels bad to…

My father went through a similar period back during the Atkins craze. He had (reasonably) gained weight after marriage/kids, and started the Atkins + working out. He lost too much weight. Everyone was asking my mom if everything was ok—if he was sick—and looking back at pictures I can see why. But soon afterwards,…

Something I think everyone should know that I found in other articles about debate:

Neither of these men think that they are going to sway the other. They have both made it very clear that they are doing this debate to try and sway average individuals who are on the fence.

THIS. THE BEST. THANK YOU.

The irony shines bright.

You're right. I just think he's the cutest fake newscaster that could be.

Well, sure made me cry. I wish Seth Meyers the best with his career, family and life, but I'm going to miss his adorable face so damn much.

It sounds like she had a lot of issues with herself.

PLEASE don't apologize for this post! I think you are so right about the whole situation. Most bad parents are not bad because they don't love their kids; it is that they were raised by parents who did not know how to appropriately/healthily express love and so they "love" just as their parents did. Every one of us…

AAH MULDER/SCULLY GIF YOU MADE MY NIGHT!

I apologize if it came off as condescending; it certainly was not meant to be. The acknowledgment of white privilege is an ongoing process for me, and I appreciate you calling me out on what you did. Another woman responded with a very similar opinion to yours—that whites need to just be quiet and we will hear the…

As a white woman who has become aware of the issues surrounding mainstream feminism and the lack of black women's voices, I'd love to get your opinion of how to better popularize intersectionality in feminism, or simply, what do you think it would take to amplify black women's voices and experiences? What steps can…

Indeed. My mother always called them "Blubbas" which I liked because it seemed like a humorous way to talk about something that we were both self-conscious about. I don't think there are real people who actually lack them..?

You're definitely not delusional. It all depends your body type. I'm very straight-figured (barely any waist) and I also am thin, but tend to carry my weight in my lower tummy, thighs and hips (pretty normal?). I find peplums cover my problem areas and also make my waist look smaller. I think a lot of women with…

AMEN. The peplum to me is the holy grail of masking problem areas and making my waist look smaller.

As a very straight-figured woman with almost no waist, I can say that yes, the peplum certainly works for me. It makes my waist look smaller and makes me look more hour-glass, which has obviously been deemed to be more attractive by media.

Oh, absolutely; I don't think it's conscious at all. I believe it to be utter brainwashing (as you put it). Underneath the feeling that they did it for themselves is the echoing of quotes from commercials and everything else the hegemony cooks up to make us feel bad about ourselves. Are there women who…

I'm really glad you said this. As someone who has not given birth, a labioplasty seems really silly to me. But thinking about it within the context of having had kids, it definitely changes, and I think that perspective is often missing from the conversation.
