That makes sense. I could get down with that. I just think it’s cute/annoying when people are like “Oh I never wear tampons” or “Pads are so uncomfortable!” I’m like, Well, bully for you that you get to choose. Mine is definitely a YES OKAY I’LL BE WEARING A SUPER PLUS TAMPON AND AN OVERNIGHT PAD AND ALSO SOME TOILET…

I’ve seen too many weird tabloid cover photos of Blake Shelton, and now his face always appears to be a thick latex mask glued down around the eye holes.

I say this, with tmi for all of you, as someone who currently is gushing like a broken dam out of my wherever.

I’m the “period” teacher at my school. If a girl is having her period, other teachers send her to me and I take care of it. I had to have supplies on hand because of a student who needed help with her period. It would be great if they were free and stocked up.

Yes. Tampons and pads, for women, are like toilet paper.

You know, I could see myself doing that, but I wouldn’t write a blog post about it. That’s kind of the dividing line for me. Everyone has less than gracious moments, and everyone tells their friends salacious things from time to time. But when you put that story up on the internet so strangers can confirm your…

Spiritual predators like Driscoll prey on the desires of good people to do good, and enable fellow opportunists to weasel their way into positions of control in a tidy, morally-approved hierarchy. That audience is filled with lots of hardcore type-As, hardcore type-bs, abuse survivors, people with poor boundaries,…

As a mom by adoption, it really disturbs me to see so many folks equate motherhood with biology. This child would not exist if not for Sherri Shepherd. She’s chosen not to act like a mother to the child, but she IS responsible for the kid being on this planet. The child may be lucky to NOT grow up in the same house…

It’s like she wanted the “Latin” nanny to be a threat, but couldn’t quite make herself go there and imagine a real person. She really needed us to know how much skinnier she is than the “thick” Latin woman.

Isn’t it pretty much agreed upon that when you see this:

This is my favourite pic from the timeline. You know what you actually made me crave now? Pupusas! Those things will slay tamales any day. I'm a pupusa stan and refuse to acknowledge there's such a thing as gorditas.

How little we expect of men when all they need to do to achieve LEGEND status is reject a (maybe?) proposition to cheat on their wives. Like, isn’t that just fulfilling the very basic premise of marriage to begin with?

I get the cover-your-ass reason, especially if his wife wasn’t due home for a while. Depending on CA state law, I guess (it’s illegal in PA without the other party’s consent). But sharing it with anyone other than his wife and lawyers is a snotty move.

“How dare this person, who we were paying very generously to care for our young daughter–”

Between this odd story and the Ben Affleck nanny situation, I feel bad for actual nannies. I feel like more often than not, they are dealing with advances from their employer rather than coming onto the employer.

This is a massive over-share, in my opinion. Why does the world need to know this level of detail about why you fired your nanny? This has a my-husband-is-hot-and-would-never-cheat-on-me-let-me-show-the-world-proof vibe.

Ok obviously sexting the boss was entirely inappropriate, but calling your husband a LEGEND because he recorded the firing of her? And then listening to it with all of your girlfriends? That’s kind of just immature and cruel and unnecessary, grow up, you fired her and ended the situation, the humiliation isn't really…

Now at this point in Kyle’s story, the part of me who is the teenager who came of age in Brooklyn started bubbling up– and my hands started itching to take my earrings out and hold them while I got CRAZY.

So this Nanny didn’t sext or proposition her husband so much send a text meant for her friend extolling his hotness to him by mistake?

She demonstrated knowledge that what she was doing was wrong, would cause his family to hate her and for the police to come after her. Even in the presence of serious psychological issues which I would argue are not evident here, this ability to discern right from wrong prevents her from using the insanity defense.
