Every parent is a child pornographer.I mean these rapist men are being allowed to change the diapers of kiddos.

What is “pedobear” are people so obsessed with naked kids that you need to see all the pictures posted so they can protect us.

So you support someone who is a racist? Wow. You just killed any ability to be taken seriously in these pages.

Well, there are a lot of creeps who do want to see that.

Can you tell that to my mother, who shows my baby pictures to every girlfriend I have ever brought home?

When corporations start doing the same shit we’re all going to live in fear of copyright. Suggesting plot out of Shakespeare will likely be a copyright infringement before long.

My partner’s insurance ensures we have enough if there were an accident.

*If all this career thing doesn’t pan out for me, I can always find me a woman with a promising career and good income, settle down, have children with her and let her take care of me for the rest of my life.*

If my partner ever ended up in a bad spot I can get work easy. This is part of the consideration. But I believe that being in a bad spot because one partner got laid off is against every American ideal we hold.

What are these people babbling about.

Well, in my own case I do a bit of contract work from-home that keeps my mind sharp. But that is a 5-10 hour-a-week job (mostly because that is all it takes... billing goes higher realistically as I spend time confirming my results and I also know I finish things twice as fast as any other contractor they worked with,…

Absolutely! I don’t mean to say that it is inherent or, uuuhg, “natural” at all.

I hate the idea that partners-in-life are also “fallback plans”. I mean that it just sucks that we (you and me) know we can exist under a single income but the assumption and desire is always to find ways to provide one’s energy to a corporation and not to one’s own family.

Absolutely, but why not aspire to a middle-class where working for other’s benefit is one’s life work? For a short while in American history there was a single-income option. I simply do not understand the resistance to aspiring for such now as our tempered and developed social justice means it would be far less…

:D I think it was... 1995? I was 11 and I have strong memories of watching with my family on first run. It was kinda a big deal in ‘95!

haha! That sounds perfect, actually. AWiT is very much like Dhal novels. L’Engle wrote about “adult” ideas in a means that made children “understand”. Think of every time on TV or in film a character has demonstrated a wormhole by folding a bit of paper to make the “entry” and “exit” points the same as a means to…

Absolutely. I don’t mean to propose that a single idea is what works for everyone. It doesn’t. Being a single parent is the hardest permutation of working and is absolutely something wrapped up in shitty political/social views that seriously hamstring single mothers (often specifically!).

That’s a huge assumption about “all women” that just isn’t true. My own experience has been that women are just as success-driven as men, and when provided with the ability to be taken seriously they’re indistinguishable from “men” in corporate settings. Hell, the women I’ve worked with as peers ran the gamut from…

She looks so young!
