He could also take my mom’s tack. She was always afraid we’d get too cold trick-or-treating and, no matter what we were dressed as, would make us wear sweats under our costumes. Disney snow white...with sweats, Mary Poppins...with sweats, groovy 60s chick...with sweats. Just buy the sexy nurse costume two sizes too…

I have never agreed with anyone more than I agree with you right now.

it drives me bananas, but i’m terrible at performance. so when people ask me if i’m “so excited” i answer them truthfully that “i do apprehensive way better than i do excited” or “moreso worried, but it’ll probably be fine” or “i don’t like to count my chickens before they hatch” or “more scared than excited, but it…

Trick choice. Never wear pants. It’s the one social advantage of being a woman. I haven’t worn pants in years and yet have remained gainfully employed.

this white person’s hysteria is hysterical laughter. (i thought the movie was funny and felt like i won movie-going for the year by picking it over whatever dumbass movie my husband wanted to see that night.)

I’m your size and sincerely anywhere between a 2 and a 12 depending on style and store. I’m a 10-12 in pencil skirts and a 2-4 in high-waisted a-line skirts. I’m a small at Old Navy and a large at H&M.

That sounds like a plus size fashion magazine to me.

I want her life to be fictionalized in a series of kids’ books, with a crossover novel in which she befriends Harriet the Spy or Anastasia Krupnik.

I misunderstood your first sentence before I finished the paragraph as referring to speed as in amphetamines. That might also work.

Gestate.

Yeaaaahhh I was a 32DD/34D before also. I hope you have a larger breasted sister or friend. It’s been a godsend. More patience for shopping than I have might do the trick also, but I wouldn’t know.

When you’re starting from fairly sizable, getting bigger isn’t a great time. It’s just like “PLEASE STOP.” I’m only 25 weeks pregnant and I’m already a 34F. I don’t know how I’m going to afford bra while breastfeeding given how expensive specialty sizes are (currently running on my larger-breasted-sister’s…

1. When you look back on it, do you only count people you had heterosexual vaginal intercourse with or anyone you climaxed with or what? It was never clear to me what people meant.

I went from D to F when I got pregnant which is the worst. I’m suddenly in the million dollar bra world but I can’t buy a few and hope they last me a while because my boobs keep fucking growing. So if I buy one, it’s obsolete in the course of a month or two. I already had mad rachmones for large breasted women, but I…

A Separation was the scariest movie I’ve seen in a long time because it hits so frighteningly close to home.

I have a very thoughtful, liberal friend whose policy it is to respond. He plays into the debate every time. Not in a “you’re a dumbfuck” way but responding with a salient question or scientific article rather than disengaging from his crazy old high school friends. He says fb trolling is his main way of keeping in…

I know that it’s mostly about making things look skinny, but I tend to stand like that in general, photo or no, to deal with being a sweaty monster. If I put my arms down, it’s immediate pit stains and then I am not allowed to lift them again. Most of these women are probably trying to look skinny, but I can’t imagine…

First reaction: OMG “BEING MARY JANE” IS NON-FICTION
If I were cool enough to do anything important, I, too, would want Gabrielle Union to play me in the tv show about my life.

I’ve been in that position! A dude was condom-on levels of about to have sex with me and then sighed, said he missed his ex-gf, and made it clear we weren’t going to bang. My inner monologue was like “ugh I don’t care about your emotions and BETWEEN MY LEGS IS NOT THE TIME OR PLACE FOR MISSING YOUR EX. Rude.” But my…

I stand by not wanting to talk to my parents about sex. They didn’t instill hang ups in me except about discussing it with family members because they never talked about it. They didn’t shy away when asked questions, they gave full and accurate explanations to things, banned no books, passed no judgments, but only…
