It may not cause him bodily risks, but it poses just as much risk to his mental health and financial stability. I’ve had male and female friends that don’t want kids, tell me that if they had an unwanted child they would commit suicide. After a broken condom and issues with my period, my boyfriend was so freaked out…

I wonder if some of the pain/ lack of sensation men experience when wearing condoms is due to lack of knowledge about the range of sizes available. In my experience, during sex education they taught that if a guy complains that condoms hurt or don’t feel good, he is lying.

If you don’t mind, can you explain how people manage to get pregnant with an IUD? From what my doctor said, the copper should make the environment acidic it so the sperm are killed. And as a second precaution the presence of a foreign object (the IUD) should prevent implantation.

All the men in my brother’s wedding party wore salmon colored vests with cream button-downs, and custom ordered Levi’s and boots. No kidding, they spent 6+ months looking for “classy” jeans. Bridesmaids and my sister in law all wore boots with formal dresses. Needless to say, I had to hold back my thoughts on her very…

Apparently IQ’s of that time period are considered about 20-30 pts lower than a comparable score today. So he would be around 120-130 on the modern scale. This mostly has to do with advances in nutrition/ childhood healthcare raising the average IQ.

And of course there’s probably no concern about citizens being forced to pay for wars the vast majority of us don’t want to be involved in. If they don’t want to subsidize healthcare, I don’t want to finance the death of people overseas.  

I believe it’s in response to certain laws/ policies around fast food/ junk food. Some large cities have proposed limiting the size of sodas, or the amount of calories in combo meals. While I do think the size of drinks in the US is ridiculous, I have to side with the conservatives on this one. Obesity has so many…

I think one of the issues is it’s very hard to distinguish whether the person telling a joke is making fun of bigots, or if they’re expressing their beliefs in a genuine way. Some of my most progressive friends make jokes involving stereotypes or violence. We all understand that it’s to make fun of the terrible people…

Even though I agree with most of the issues people bring up in award speeches, I don’t think its appropriate unless it has something to do with that specific show/ movie. For example, I see it as genuine if  people involved in a movie that explores racism, or has a noteworthy amount of minority cast members, talk…

I don’t understand how it is inherently patriarchal to be in a relationship with a man.

I think that all people should be encouraged to look in to and become involved in activities that help men and women gain equality. I think the confusion comes from exactly what Stassa mentioned: there isn’t a way for us to determine if someone is a feminist, besides the very broad definition of someone who fights for…
