You said it yourself, there have only been two episodes. Fictional pieces either resonate or they don't, and if after two episodes this one doesn't for you then you have the option of not watching it. But to slag it off as being as meaningful or not as a piece of shlock soft core porn is a bit much on so thin a…

That's not a complaint about what was actually said, of course, just more of the same piss and vinegar about the concept rather than the content.

Both shows were/are really good.

Yes, and I think that's why it can resonate for a lot of people. Give it a try. I found it refreshing and moving and complicated — in just the way life can be.

No one is forcing you to care about anything. The real question is can you see that these fellows had something interesting to say, or are you too wrapped up in your outrage to judge the piece on its own merits rather than on what you think it symbolizes?

This was great and delightful. Thank you for bringing a bit of fresh air to the commentary about the show. I loved getting a male perspective and for once not getting some bilious rant about how this show is TERRIBLE because it doesn't serve one agenda or another. Thank you to all involved.

My male is constantly cleaning my two females' eyes. It's just the sweetest thing ever. And they all groom each others' ears and even their teeth sometimes.

eh, I don't mind it from my wee ones. I'm tolerant of dachshund love.

I'll drink to that!

The dog is not being dominant. Dachshunds just love to lick faces. It's an act of love.

Dachshunds rule. That is all.

I happened to catch the story of the steralizations on npr the other day, and it is genuinely appalling. The government is sterilizing women without their knowledge or consent and doctors basically are told they have to sterilize women after a second pregnancy or if they are pregnant and over 35. The reason…

It did happen to me, and I promise you I hated both parties. And unless it has happened to you, don't presume to tell people how to feel about infidelity by a spouse.

This woman had a choice to stay or not stay in a relationship that clearly was not at a level that Mr. Wang was willing for his family to come into contact with her. She had no legal right to expect money from him, and she had no moral right either.

Why? I see no real value in arguing that we should somehow blame one party to infidelity more or less than another. What does it gain us except to somehow excuse the non-married party to the cheating, and the only person who has the right to do that is the spouse who has been the victim of the cheating.

I agree. It's total and utter bullshit. Ethics are ethics, and participating in infidelity is not blameless.

Ohhh yeah. Thanks.

What does CEFAD mean?

Of course it's economically AND statistically possible.

Because people are not perfect and insisting that we see life only through nice, appealing people is not really a reflection of reality. Do you ask these questions about Larry David?
