Appearances can be deceiving. Someone I know was diagnosed based on looks alone. The doctor didn’t bother to run any tests. Almost 20 years later it turned out (confirmed via tests) that she never had herpes at all.

I agree- DBT changed my life and really should be a required course for graduation. I wish I had gone much, much sooner.

You nailed it. I can’t stop laughing at paper towels now.

If I were on a date with a friend, it would still be deeply offensive and disgusting for the chef to offer to go home with us. Still extremely inappropriate.

Iam sure it’s way harder to get id’s and such as a non-american. However, I know it’s still a huge pain in the ass as an American. It costs money to get a birth certificate. I have to drive downtown to a records building during business hours, pay for parking, walk blocks and blocks with two small children, then walk…

I was so engorged after my second child (he was in the NICU when my milk came in, and pumping was not nearly as effective as breastfeeding), i requested to see the lactation consultant at the hospital due to latching issues. She took one look at my rock hard breasts and called in the nurse. They both massaged and…

“How did your baby get pinkeye?”

I thought you couldn’t be awarded reward money if you were involved with the crime? That’s bizarre.

I know someone with an IQ of 70, like Avery. He has difficulty feeling empathy- he can’t imagine how other people feel. He doesn’t think about how his actions affect others. And he does some impulsive, stupid shit. While he seems like an average person at first, he actually difficulty navigating everyday situations.

I have a pressing question. What if, in this exact situation, the woman was actively saying no but not physically resisting?

This reminded me of high school, when a the popular kid would laugh as I walked by, then stare at my ass until he remembered he was better than me and continued being smug.

Prestigious schools don’t teach street smarts or common sense.

I’m on medicaid, and went to urgent care for severe back pain one weekend. The one closest to me had a 2 hour wait, so I drove an extra 20 minutes to a location that was less busy. I sat in the room for what seemed like ages, until the doctor walked in and started interrogating me about my history with pain meds.…

Why am I not surprised this happened in Tennessee?

Is his brother... Daryl Dixon?

All men are capable of not raping. It’s not that hard. You literally have to do nothing.

I’ve been in the same situation but I still think it’s about power and control. They might be horny, but it’s the power and control that they’re getting off on. I view your described scenario as very much having to do with power and control. There’s a big difference between consensual sex and raping someone. What is…

When I was 12 I hit puberty. By 13 I had B cups. One day my mom lost it on me and started yelling at me to quit stuffing my bra. It was completely humiliating.

But she didn’t have any of those things- medicaid, etc. So there was no insurance fraud.

I had friends who saw some seriously insane prayer happen in a very dire situation.
