I am white, straight suburban mom and this post along with the discussion has been very enlightening. I'm a feminist, but I'm a bad feminist and I don't understand wanting to supposedly celebrate women but of only a certain type.

My son is now 11 and is allowed to stay home by himself when I go to run a quick errand or two. I understand the urge to hover over your child, but I've decided I want him to take baby steps toward independence rather than just turning him loose with no experience later on.

Your depiction of the comments section is right on the money. I use food.com quite a bit and the comments make me cringe and laugh at the same time.

Damn you Shrayber, I cannot unsee that. Lol

I had that house when I was little. I loved that house so much.

This is the best post of the day. Kudos to you for putting into words all of my dreams. Cumberbatch, geekery and junk food plus political cartooning, be still my heart.

Most vegetables should be roasted in my humble opinion. Many vegetables I previously hated I now love due to roasting.

Embarrassment by proxy indeed, this poor oaf needs to go away and regroup. For Pete's sake just stop it now

I'm sorry that happened for all involved. Hurting anyone never feels good. I wish you good luck.

Well I'm glad you are going to get to see them and I hope you find new living arrangements soon.

I hope you get to see your therapist soon.

Boy is this article a Shrayber or what?

This is a very sexy collection in the very best sense of that word. Also I think the use of accessories especially the gloves was quite good.
