This is exactly what I struggle with. You are 100% correct. She does have an exceptionally beautiful singing voice, a deep baritone which is complely underrepresented in pop. We want more from her. We want her to be exceptional and a beautiful feminist. We expect so much from women who have a universal platform. We…

Yeah, my sentiment exactly. I do not know how excruciating growing up under the lime light would be but stop pretending like every emotional experience is so provactive and mind blowing. Exceptional experiences to you might be exceptionally average to others.  Learn to share your "mind blowing " thoughts or…

I think you know why...Women have to be 4×(or more) greater than a man to be recognized as a facilitator/leader to be recognized and on the flip side, they can fly under the radar before being called out for shitty behavior because we still see men as the standard and women who succeed as outliers. Outliers are…

Thank you for expressing your understanding of why women struggle to unite. It is not as simple as I suffered and it made me stronger and you must also silently suffer to rise above and have influence or even just internalized misogyny. It so much more complicated than any of those over simplified explanations. I have…

Taken right out of my playbook!

I always dreaded taking my boys to the rat’s nest aka Chuck E. Cheese until I had a flashback of my youth. We did not live anywhere near one growing up and I had no idea what I was going to for one of my classmate’s birthdays. From the minute I walked in, it was magical (keep in mind, I was 8) and I was completely and…

I doubt he has been fucked in a long time. He does not deserve to be fucked (I do have a hinting suspicion that a good fuck would probably convert him to Democrat). He deserves a sexless life.

So cliche, but distance makes the heart grow fonder. It is so easy to become romantically intwined with a man that you have such amazing chemistry with and gives you the tingles. Since you have a child, you have an extra layer of responsibility as to who you allow in your child’s life. Children are extra super duper…

I was pondering this as well. Not specifically about his cavalier attitude, but this general talking point adopted by right wing pundits and angry people who want something to be angry about: these are old people that were at death’s door step anyway. It really made me re-evaluate what is healthy. I know that I suffer…

Almost as bad as, if you smiled you would be so pretty. GRRR

The whole men not understanding what six feet looks like is baffling to me. I was at Rite Aid yesterday and got the last 12 pack of toilet paper (no kidding, down to 3 rolls at the house)and waiting in the check line when the man behind me was less than 2 feet from my body. I turned around and said to him, now I know…

I wish I could see your eyes to stare into your soul. Hang in there, your desire to help young natives navigate life is so valuable and needed. I am raising two boys and though I think that I am kinda a girly girl, I would really struggle with raising girls. I just dont know how to navigate the complicated and multi…

Wow, what a great step in choosing your health over an artificial high! Secondly, think about how much money you are going to save. Your hard earned money in your bank account...natural high. It sounds silly, but I have been really annoyed with celebrities touting this message of using this time to develop yourself.…

I have been reading your comments for years and find you to be an incredibly interesting and exceptional person. Your deepest fault and were I find myself shaking my head, is how these fucked up, depleely beneath your your emotional skill set, pathetic people grip you and make you feel less than. I just don’t get it.…

I have read your input and commitment to this site for years. I am responding to you tonight because you have focused on an aspect of your life that you have gained great insight and understanding of in the intellectual realm, but still suffer and hurt in the emotional realm. You KNOW why your family has used you and…

Maybe it is a dual eyeliner/vape pen? Double panic!

I hope I am not projecting, but do you think you might be a narcissist magnet? The way you gave so much of yourself to a man who gave so little of himself to you. Please take a hard look why you attract such a narcissistic man who thinks nothing of all of your efforts and emotional contributions. It would be really…

Yikes! My mom is my rock and a great resource to bounce ideas off of. My heart hurt reading your comment. I hope your daughters come around and see the value in sharing their lives with you.

One insecurity that you just shared really needs to be focused on and needs a new perspective-That he broke it off with you to be with no one. What a blessing and mature step to take. Most ppl will not break up with their significant other until they have found someone else. If he had done that instead, more than…

I read it is a coma instead of a comma. Makes equal sense though.
