007b.com saved my life in high school.

Obviously different cultures are nuanced, and generalization is bad, but I have a question. If "a menstruating girl is a powerful, polluting thing," is there not a way to use that power in a different way?

YES! While these women do have autonomy, they live within the confines of a culture that keeps them from expressing it fully. BUT, it's not like they're alone. We live in a culture where girls are blamed for wearing XYZ after they're raped. I see these scenarios as similar to one another.

That lots of girls want to have it done? Yeah, we know that. But why do you think they want to have it done? Just as well, I feel perfectly okay criticizing boob jobs and the associated risks because I think the idea behind them is very similar.

Yes! This was intelligent and very well done! Enough fluff. Let's talk about what's real.

I agree with many of the other commenters. Before my great grandmothers died, my father sat down with them and interviewed them about their life...their family, their childhood, everything! But that was in the early 90s, when home-video cameras were the new thing. Things have changed! Now, it's even easier to do…

I'm pretty sure they're synonyms, but please, someone correct me if I'm wrong!

"I also enjoyed dancing and clapping around the house when I was 18 months old. That was because I had just discovered clapping. And dancing. And peeing behind things. Sassy!"

Made my (albeit short) day.

Is it just me, or did anyone else only see JLaw after seeing the whole pic? The eyes are Watson all the way. Mouth is Lawrence.

TBH, I would go see them. I saw *NSYNC 3 times. I think I owe the Backstreet Boys at LEAST one...

This disgusts me and makes me sad. Good thing I don't read magazines.

I agree, but I actually feel kind of bad for her. I mean, I don't exactly follow the tabloids, but I got the impression that they started dating a long time ago (in teenager years, when he was probably less of a douche) and that he slowly degraded. And because she still cared about him, she put up with his…

I'm sorry, but I ENJOY having pussy lips where that girl has air.

Hell yeah. I can't cook or bake for my life and if I'm gonna date someone, they're going to have to know that information.

Nailed it.

Yeah, I'm starting to feel like an asshole for being confused before looking at the comments. I would have thought something was medically wrong. Either way, being a bystander is a shitty thing to do.

This is really interesting having just flying and commenting to my parents that I rarely see female pilots (which, has been true, in my experience. I honestly can't think of one). One said "most pilots learn to fly in the Air Force, which has more men" and the other said "well, not so much anymore."
Just…

Wait, are we reading the same article? Did editors change it? Because I'm either super blazed or those comments aren't there anymore.

Simple for the win.

Haha yeah, well, as I grew up and learned about "meritocracy," things got more complicated. I mean, I know a guy who got a degree in Arabic from Yale and ended up working at Chipotle because he couldn't get a job in politics or education....or much else for that matter. If that dude couldn't get a job, how does an…
