Lindy, You have some really sweet, self aware friends :)!

Absolutely agree. Unfortunately, the terms wife/husband, girlfriend/boyfriend are very gendered. Just compare what it means to be "a good wife" and what it means to be "a good husband."

Such perfect! Wow!

Yep. But it's still a picture of a kid, right? Right? (Or are we ok with captioning a kid's picture with (contextual, snark) "orgasm?" I'm not.)

Dude, it's a picture of a little kid. That's so inappropriate!

Also, please. Can we stop with the ally bashing?

I wonder if employers will use this as another way to discriminate against female applicants.

Also love: How MO's belt buckles on the back of her waist!

Then my defense might just be a tad self-conscious, because I do something similar with my students and tell them that my name implies I'm magic. Just a silly first-day of class thing... :)

"My name is Bikram. I'm always victorious."

Having kids while in grad school hasn't been the greatest. But I still burn when I remember my grad school director shaking his head at me sadly and saying that I should put grad school "ahead of life like the other students."

I don't know if Morri implied a "thinly veiled insult." I read it as an affirmation that parents cannot be the only caregivers (indeed I doubt parents been the sole caregivers for more than a century give or take).

Cousin!
