If anyone is looking for absolutely wonderful, sane, non-judgemental makeup advice (including contouring!), I highly recommend Lisa Eldridge's site. I only recently discovered her, and man, I wish I'd had her calm, easy-going reassurance when I was a teenager. I get really exhausted by the arbitrary laws that some…
You're friend needs to grow up and end the relationship. He knows he's leading her on, which is a dick thing to do, no matter how flawed she may be.
I think men and women are both discouraged from expressing their feelings, but in different ways. Generally, men are discouraged from expressing positive emotions, like hugging or saying I love you, whereas women are discouraging from expressing their negative emotions and expected to keep quiet about things that…
I regularly want to shout this point about the other gender being human beings at guys who have bought into the whole Mars/Venus fallacy and ask, "But what do women WANT?"
My answer nowadays is usually some variation on, It varies on the woman. In general they want the same basic things that guys want: to have fun, to…
My ex was always convinced that I was using some kind of secret woman code. I am pathologically honest, I will bluntly tell you exactly what I mean if asked. Imagine how hard that relationship was.
Him: What's wrong honey?
Does anyone else find that like 100% of articles or videos entitled "One thing that every girl wants," or "The things that all girls want you to know," or "Every girl's dream," or any variation on that theme, it is completely wrong and antithetical to your experience like 100% of the time?
What the alien twins actually share is a living, walking faux-hawk.
Good for all of them!
I think it's only okay if you are super tight with this person and they've been talking to you openly about their efforts to lose weight. Otherwise, nope.
I would really like people to come up with more exciting dance themes. Like, Alien Invasion, Prehistoric, or the very romantic 50's Bomb Shelter theme.
Yeah, I agree that it is nuanced — I'm not exactly jazzed about what is (IMO) an oversexualized 15-year-old while being simultaneously cognizant that we shouldn't shame girls for their body/sexuality/etc. Those are all very valid questions, but not entirely relevant to the central part of this.
It's totally the "Stride of Pride". Or it should be. :-)
I am a mama, and proud to be one. It's the best thing I've ever done in my life.
Why should it be celebrated? You do realize the crux of your argument is your personal feelings about how other people should feel about pregnancy and birth? YOU may feel like it is beautiful and wonderful. Other women may feel like it's gross and parasitic. Feminism is not championing one view over the other. You're…
...the only mention of children and babies on this article is in your comment.
You know when those bee-hive wearing ladies say this in public, do NOT smile your sweetest and then ask "But, what about rear entry?"
See. And you guys laughed at me for knitting all my own clothes and accessories out of cat hair I stole from my neighbor. WHO IS CRAZY NOW?
A former coworker is a Sikh who wears a turban. He was at an anti-poverty protest once, when a woman with a Central European accent came up to him and after chatting a bit started asking about his turban. After he explained that he was Sikh, she said "No offense, but you look like a terrorist."
Without missing a beat…
You know what I think? We need a mandatory World Religions class for every fucking highschooler in America. My Catholic school required it. Junior year — world religions. I believe the archdiocese required it for all the Catholic high schools. I got to college and someone was spouting off crap about Hinduism that was…
And more importantly, sometime in the near future someone will win a scrabble game by playing cuntish.
My sister believes that I am optimistic and positive online, but really I just don't post negative crap unless I'm ready to laugh about it. I swear I'm not hiding anything- I just don't need a reminder when something sucks.
