Why does pointing out one religion's shittiness prevent the same from happening to another religion? Both are shitty, and fuck you or anyone else who wants to hide behind accusations of ”racism” as a means to give one of them a pass.

Or you know - we could hold both Islam and Christianity accountable. It’s not an either-or situation. And Islam is not connected to race, so there’s that too.

This was my immediate reaction too - how can parents do this to their child? But I think it’s clear that there are some places out there where there’s a huge difference between a ‘male child’ and a ‘female child’. It seems like when it comes to females, families feel a sense of ownership, which they don’t feel towards…

Belief that children are your property.

How can anyone do that to their own child? You spend all those years loving and raising her, and then boom, set her on fire? How?!

Insurance companies are just horrible when it comes to anything breast related.

This was the sentencing so the conviction had already been registered in the record and all that was to decide was the punishment. I’m not a lawyer but I don’t think you can get a mistrial if the trial is actually over. Any lawyers, you mind chiming in on this?

This makes absolute sense and my heart aches for this man. Having said that, that's a fucking amazing picture.

Was he arrested? If so I hope he won’t serve any time because he is all parents.

Fucking bullshit facebook. Get your shit together.

No need there either then, becuase I’m not conflating. We’re talking about different forests. You’re in the “is the procedure OK” one, which we share — unequivocally no. I’m also talking about the “what happens when a procedure previously allowed is outlawed and is subsequently done illegally outside a hospital”…

Let me stop you there. Abortion is nothing like FGM. Abortions are usually elective procedures by adults (and sometimes teenage girls) provided in a sterilized and accommodating space. FGM is a tool to restrict the bodily dignity of young girls and is akin to foot binding. It is meant to take the joy out of sex for…

The procedures aren’t parallel at all. Abortion is safe, optional, and purposeful. FGM is the exact opposite. The equation only works in the “if I can’t get this legally, I will just get it illegally and it will be a riskier procedure” sense, not if you think of whether it’s justified.

I’m not sure I agree with you on your abortion equation. I think that if parents are held accountable (along with those who perform the procedures) the procedure may fade away. Abortion is something women choose because they are not willing/able (for whatever reason) bring a pregnancy to term. FGM seems like it is…

Yeah dressing professional with big boobs is a struggle because high necklines make your boobs look bigger, and regular necklines and have accidental cleavage at any moment.

THIS. I have never been what anyone would call well-dressed, but I either wear nice jeans & a nice top, or a dress, because skirts that squeeze your belly all day are for the birds (and who has time to match TWO THINGS). I buy my winter tights a size too big, and throw an over-sized sweater over a dress. It’s…

I’m a print journalist aka jeans, t-shirt and if you’re lucky, I washed my hair. It’s hilarious when I got to press conferences and the TV reporters are all hot and sexy and then I show up and they’re like, who invited the homeless woman?

I wear dresses, leggings, and flats because they are easier to put on. A couple of months ago my coworker asked if I constantly wore dresses as a “religious thing” which I found odd because the dresses I wear aren’t very conservative. Her eyebrows reached a new level when I explained that I do it because it is…

I am 27 and have basically given up on heels cuz fuckkkk that noise.

“You need to dress properly - it’s about respect!”
