This is a bad idea. You aren't going to be around your kids 24/7, and they will have access to the internet at school/libraries/friend's houses/etc. If you strictly forbid them from using these sites, which we know they will probably sign up for anyway, you wont be able to monitor/coach them on how to do it safely. …

It took me several months for me to gain the courage to report the man who had been sexually assaulting me. I was terrified of going to the police, fearing that somehow I would be in trouble, and that the man who had been assaulting me would find out and cause me great harm. It wasn't until months later when I had…

It's really interesting that this came up. I JUST went to see a Van Gogh gallery, and I was fascinated by his personal story. The man was clearly batshit insane (my guess is schizophrenia as he was documented to have had hallucinations etc.). In fact, many of his paintings were done while in the asylum.

I dunno... I think people would be so shocked that I broke the lady-code of being polite, nice and never using naughty words that they would be pretty offended. Maybe not so much for what I said, but the fact that I said it. And that would probably give me enough satisfaction.

I fucking LOATHE it when people try to delegitimize my concerns by chalking up my bitchiness to PMS. Excuse... fucking... me, but I have a reason to be pissed off. This is me NOT on PMS... piss me off when I am PMS'ing and you wouldn't know what hit you, and you SURE AS HELL wouldn't get away with making a douchey…

I know this makes me a horrible human being, but I found this funny and felt they got what they deserved. Lay down in front of a moving vehicle... prepare to be run over. Simple as that.

Thank you!!

This was about 6 years ago... and I have since been taken off of birth control pills for signs of TIA. So you're probably right. I didn't really think much of it at the time. Anyway, thanks for your reply.

I was only 20 years old (read: stupid), and figured I had pinched a nerve in my sleep or something. But being disoriented and confused kind of diffused my concern (I was too busy being confused), and it returned to normal quickly enough that it didn't really cause a lot of alarm. Not to mention that my room mate at…

I woke up one morning and the right side of my face had completely dropped. I was disoriented and confused, and consequently, wasn't making much sense.

*roll eyes*

If you choose to have children of your own, despite being fully aware of the problems our earth (and by extension, millions of people) are experiencing, then IMO, you are being selfish. One of the greatest things about humans is our ability to exist outside of our evolutionary whims, so to chalk it up to evolution is…

I *KNOW* this is true for me... I find that if I start reading too many depressing/disturbing/stressful articles, I get bad anxiety (mainly because of the 'mean world syndrome' and the fact that I mull over it for hours, worrying about how shitty our world is and how there are so many people suffering, and I feel…

This!! So much!

I feel it's the exact opposite. I am being unselfish by NOT adding to the over-population problems we have. I am being unselfish by NOT demanding to have my own genes on this planet. Now excuse me while I go solve world-hunger or something important like that.

THIS!

I made the decision at 15 years old that I would never have natural children. My reasons are as follows:

I should have known better... but nope, I just HAD to read it. Ugh.

That's not ugly... that's just straight up scary. No joke, I was scrolling through the comments and when I saw this one, it scared the shit out of me. Haha!

This has to be one of my biggest pet peeves. I ESPECIALLY hate it when we do it for genitalia: "doo dee, pee pee, wee wee", etc. NO! It's a penis or a vulva/vagina! There is no reason to make up a cutesy word for a part of your body. We don't call our arms "flailies, army warmies, danglies", etc. so why do it for…
