Don't let Suzanne Venker do any gathering for you, she obviously has no idea what it entails.

I sent Suzanne Venker out into the woods to collect a bushel of nuts, berries, edible bark and mushrooms that would form the staples of my family's diet and she just put on a pretty dress and danced around. My family will

I am. I'm made of fluffy-tailed little bunnies and rainbows.

He's pretty average looking compared to Lorde, but I wonder if there would be so much of an outcry if she were dating an average looking white guy.

The conventionally unattractive man with a conventionally attractive woman is such a common trope that I can't help but wonder if even the comments that don't explicitly

Of course, there is NO such inherent conflict between being a working man and being a husband and father. Daddies are supposed to bring home the bacon and momies are supposed to fry it up, blah blah heteronormativity, blah blah, idealization of a mythical past that excludes almost everyone, blah blah blaaaaaaah.

Gay,

FUUUUUCK, ALL THESE NINJA CHOPPING ONIONS IN MY FAAAACE.

I believe there are two or three female writers. A more accurate criticism would be to point out that the vast majority of writers are white men, a quality that the show often mocks in other groups (i.e., most Republican organizations.)

I maintain this isn't caused by texting, but by apathy towards reading and writing.

When I was in the sixth grade, most of the students in my English class also wrote with extremely simple/wonky sentence structure, bad grammar, terrible spelling, slang and casual tones inappropriate for a school paper. This was back

I'm so glad to hear that I'm not the only person in the world annoyed by all the pearl-clutching over text speak.

Ugh, I'm sorry. That sounds awful.

I only get asked why I'm single by relatives who are disappointed I haven't pooped out some babies yet. But seriously, there are two possible answers to that question:

Related question—have you ever encountered guys who are under the impression that women never get rejected ever? That the only reason single hetero women exist at all is because they either choose to be single, or there is no male within a hundred miles they deem worthy of their presence?

That sort of outlook is usually a sign of (cultural programming and) immaturity, and the self-centered attitude that often comes with immaturity...You grew out of it. Some people never do.

I thought his comments on the name were weird. I'm pretty sensitive to subtle problems in language, but I couldn't really imagine anyone outside of tumblr calling the term "manboobs" (stripped of context) transphobic.

You know what's really scary? YOU CAME OUT OF ONE OF THOSE. YOU CAME OUT OF YOUR MOTHER'S VAGINA. FEAR. FEEEEEEAR!

MRAs are homophobic as fuck. Where's he getting the idea that they're gay?

The important thing is that he took a very brave step of bringing his sexuality into the public light.

Truest goddamn story ever told.

You know, seriously, no, seriously—-if we HAVE to read some biological imperative into lipstick, why do we need to bring labia into it? Why can't red lips and blushed cheeks be there to mimic healthy, youthful skin and good circulation? Something that started out as an attempt to look healthy and became exaggerated by

Haha, yeah. Actually, it's with some shame that I admit that I responded to him. One of the many things I said was that, though there are severely problematic limitations on the possibility of testing that theory, one way to make a start at it would be showing heterosexual men engorged primate labia and monitoring

He must be a real treat at parties.
