Lindy, this diet sounds like it is a little bit too high in processed foods. You should consider the Paleo Diet! It's changed my entire life since I started it two weeks ago.

"I understand that fat shaming is wrong". . ."go get some exercise, it will help shrink your waistline as well as help improve that shitty attitude of yours."

You are aware that many mothers have to work while their children are at school? And many mothers are raising kids without a man in the picture? You might want to check your privilege for half a second before you declare that mothers who don't have time to exercise are all just lazy.

What exactly are we to believe she's saying as she prances in front of him on the sofa, before he sweeps her off her feet? It is hard to imagine that: "Oh darling, I just bleached my vagina!" would elicit that sort of reaction. Does she flash him real quick and I missed it?

"It's not all magnificent highs and crushing lows as depicted on television dramas". I mean, OK, but giving birth doesn't involve 5 minutes of dramatic yelling followed by the delivery of a clean, calm, three-month-old baby either. Television isn't realistic; not a big news flash.

I'm really enjoying how basically every comment on this thread starts with "Losing weight is easy and there is one simple answer about how to do it! It's (insert thing that is totally different from what everyone else said). It worked for me so it will work for everyone!

Ugh, seriously. I mean, I would say in my platonic friendships the sex question was 'taken care of' in that, when we met, we both probably thought for a minute 'hey, this is a person I think is cool who is of the gender to which I am attracted, any chemistry? Nope, OK, moving on'. But there was no hookup or advances.…

The burly Austrian man who led me through the cloud forests of Bolivia told me that chagas mostly hang out in really old houses with a lot of grossness and moisture. So you're not danger in most decent accommodations. I will choose to trust the burly Austrian man and not panic. His name was Olaf.

Yep! My ideal is actually that both my best friend and I find long term partners and we all raise kids together. Since both our partners would be male, my kids would have a mommy and three daddies. Can't wait to see how THAT goes over.

Ummm, prostitutes can refuse sex at a brothel. I imagine they don't do it often, but brothel aren't rape-is-OK houses.

There's nothing I hate more about American working culture than the idea that "I will prove my worth by working ridiculous hours". I work in the most hippy-dippy profession we've got (nonprofit youth activism!) and it's still really prevalent. Fortunately my organization actually values work-life balance and my work…

I find the asexual movement really exciting because I think it could lead to a movement of people creating family units that are not necessarily based on sexual partnership. I'm sexual, but I'm in a relationship with my best friend that resembles a marriage more than any romantic relationship I've ever had. We plan to…

What EmpressZombie said. Not to mention, even if non-blonde women were considered for the role, nothing the article said would qualify as blonde "hate" still. It said they replaced Rachel Dratch with a pretty blond. It didn't say they replaced Rachel Dratch with a pretty blonde who didn't deserve it because all…

I don't have anxiety attacks, insomnia, IBS, or apathy. I have lots of energy. But that doesn't mean everyone should be eating the exact same diet I eat (although the "Relax and eat delicious things!" diet would be a refreshing book to see on the shelf). Bodies: they're different!

Yknow. . .I don't know anything about how you look, or what guys think of you. But I can tell you that for a long time I thought "guys would never touch me at this weight". So I lost a lot of weight, and everyone told me I looked so much better . . .except the boy I had had a huge crush on but thought would never like…

I. . .kind of want to know what the hell that means, but kind of don't.
