Why is it the woman’s job to ensure a man stand up for a child?

I don’t fucking understand how they can endorse “natural family planning”, while disfavoring birth control. MOTHER FUCKERS IT DOES THE SAME THING FOR THE SAME REASONS, ONLY NOT AS EFFECTIVELY.

I have a hard time on a feminist blog finding a way to be anything but Team Taylor on this one. She may have an incredibly planned public persona and is annoyingly twee (can we PLEASE retire #squadgoals forever ??), but Kanye is the literal worst.

My goodness, had no idea these movements were so sacred I’d get snark just for disliking them... At any rate, I’d prefer the “dancing” be done away in the tumbling period, since male gymnasts don’t have to do this kind of stupid pandering. But I guess we need to emphasize that female athletes are still appropriately…

Meh. Not necessarily, but like you say, once it’s a partnership. One member of a partnership (of any gender) can make a choice to financially support someone who is going through grad school or raising a child, for instance.

I recently started talking to a guy I lost touch with post college. We’re talking about his rocky marriage, and I am all “if your that unhappy why not leave?”, and him “she will take me for everything”. Later I find out that well they were dating and living in different cities he bought her a house to live in. I kinda…

Why such a fatalistic view? I’ve lived with my girlfriend for 3 years, we more or less share household income, and yes, she makes more money than me. I work two part time jobs and dont really have a way to go back to school or anything. We’re in a loving relationship, we both contribute what we can, and we’re happy.

It’s terrible to be on both sides. I have an ex who was obsessed with making things even. To the dollar. If he paid for coffee in the morning, I would have to pay for lunch. It drove me crazy because I felt like he was keeping a running tab on expenses. To make up for this, my last ex was the schlub who took my car…

Yeah, I always use the expression “fair does not always mean equal.” Sounds like her arrangement is perfectly fair and works for them. :)

Unless you are married and in a community property state, even if your spouse gets a credit card in their name, you are on the hook for the debt.

Not necessarily, I’m not a big proponent of demanding equal income from both partners.

For real! I was scanning the comments for this. The ads have gotten out of control lately. But that’s too much of a coincidence to be a mistake.

MrStu’s whole family lives in Wisco. Our niece was about 4 when we got married and while in the car alone with her, she told me how great it was to live there (it was as adorable as you might imagine). I said, “what’s the best thing about Wisconsin?” She thought long and hard and said, “Was gonna say peoples. But it’s…

they were prob fired because they have tacos, not bro-ritos.

Calm down there, Satan.

Animals that manage to escape should get a pass on slaughter. I like burgers, but I like sneaky animals more.

Why do you think we haven’t had a woman as president yet?” First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton asked her guest over their lunch at the White House in 1995.
