Oh honey, the majority of dirtbag dwelers are blind spots to me, that’s what I get for being almost forty and out of the loop.

I really wish there was a process where people could nominate other posters for ungraying. I will never understand the process by which they make the determinations. So many excellent, substantive, long-time posters stay gray, while new posters who are quasi-trolls or spend most of their time insulting the site and…

These cases are relatively easy to prove, they are actionable under current laws in most states

Violent sexism is just “a reduction in compassion”?

This little docu was certainly entertaining. But it isn’t groundbreaking or unique at all. And despite what this author claims, it doesn’t focus on the lives of the dancers. It talks to the dancers but the focus is on these male musicians. All the dancer interviews were in the club. We saw Future and the DJ at their…

The whole empowered-stripper concept has always felt a little uncomfortable to me.

I see what you did there.

There are women out there who are still bothering with tampons? Menstrual cups are the key to period happiness, my friends.

I don’t use make-up, but if I did, the only thing I would really worry about was lipstick (http://www.fda.gov/Cosmetics/Prod… Lead is some bad shit, with serious life-long side effects, and it takes a really really long time for it to clear from the body. The FDA admits there is lead in most lipsticks, but says it is…

Actually, women are generally awarded physical custody because they’re the only one who wants it. When you look at cases where both parents request custody, the numbers actually often slightly favor the men

Then send the MOM to jail, or give full custody to dad or something. The fact that the kids are easy to jail shouldn’t me they have to pay for crazy-pants mom (if she is crazy-pants and not just gaslighted or whatever).

There's a reason MRAs are called "the abuser's lobby."

I have a friend who used to live on my street. Recently, she and her kids moved to a new apartment just up the road. Their landlord lives above them, and he is, it turns out, a bit nuts.

Jack the Ripper’s victims spent their lives at the bottom of the proverbial heap in Victorian England (maybe people in the workhouse or child labourers had it worse but it was all pretty bad). The fact that they're still being fetishized over 100 years later makes me really sad.

I get really squicked out when people revel in the macabre details of criminal violence. It’s sad, not titillating, and incredibly disrespectful to victims to fetishize their suffering and terror, I don’t care how many years later it is. This was just some cruel, sick fuck, who brought several human beings to an…

Probably because it was only created about 60 years ago.

I think most women can touch their cervix?? I mean I don’t know, I guess I shouldn’t speak for ‘most women’ because I obviously don’t know that- never talked to any of my friends about their cervix...But yeah, I can reach mine too. I also know that it changes position/softness depending on where you are in your cycle.…

Okay serious serious TMI ahead about my anatomy just in case anyone doesn’t want to read about that

Do I just have a shallow vaginal canal or something? I can reach in and touch my cervix with my index finger. (Maybe I have abnormally long fingers.)
But I was reading about fits for menstrual cups the other day and I…

Am I the only one who takes issue with using the word “sex” in the recent reporting? He wanted to incapacitate them, which would mean rape, no?
