Yes! I thought it was just that one hospital and program, but asking around the country had residents telling me they don’t like who they became during residency. The culture was malignant.

For one thing, the residency programs I talked with were ironically very against their residents taking maternity leave.

I was class of 2007. I think part of the problem is that Ob/gyns are expected to fill so many roles: obstetrician, surgeon, women’s health primary care, urogyn, etc. Gyn-onc has separated with a fellowship, and it’s been suggested that Ob/gyn go the internal medicine route with a shorter residency and multiple longer…

I was on my way to become big an Ob/gyn, when every single Ob/gyn resident told me during my fourth year of medical school to pick something else. They were miserable and those that were married (like me) were divorced by the end of their residency. There are cultural problems within the specialty. I picked radiology…

Umm, it’s not for lack of effort that cancer hasn’t been cured.

It actually helped me too. My class must have been assigned an exceptional officer, because he was really good. He even expanded the “just say no” role playing to other social situations, including saying no to a boy trying to pressure you to go on “date”. I didn’t understand until I was older, but he managed to warn…

I love Jennifer Lawrence’s hat in those pictures. Especially as we enter summer.

I took my 7 year old to the theater, after seeing it with just the hubby first to make sure it wasn’t too much. The violence didn’t bother him (on par with other super hero movies) but the fish out of water scenes did. My little sensitive boy was getting second hand embarrassment! I tried to explain that Diana wasn’t…

Another detail from Seattle NPR: the housing complex where this tragedy took place is for formerly homeless families. This family was trying desperately to make a better life.

I would like to formally submit Chris Pine as Jack Ryan as evidence that he is the number one Chris.

I agree overall, but want to point out that Black Widow would be a great solo movie. She was trained to be the ultimate assasin in the Russian Red Room as a child, partnered and possibly had a sexual relationship with the Winter Soldier, and specializes in undercover work. It’s Alias on steroids.

My mother told one morning while she was curling my hair when I was 9 that my parents would pay for plastic surgery, and that I shouldn’t worry about my nose. Well, I had never really thought about how I looked before that moment.

Somebody please make this a meme

That means we can all officially LOVE CS. He is Tim Gunn approved, and that’s all I need.

Yes! And Bobbi made makeup for a huge variety of skin tones long before that was more common.

My wedding makeup was Bobbi Brown, and everything I bought then doubled as my professional makeup for Med school.

I love that book!

Bobbi Brown is a godsend to young professional women. I’ve moved on, and can figure out what to buy on my own. But, for years I took advice from Bobbi.

As someone who attended both an Ivy League school and one less prestigious, and I can say that the athletes are more likely to be entitled, sexist assholes at the Ivies, not less.
