In my experience, once I got the hang of it, it was super cute. And mine did these little bulldog-like grunt-y noises, so he was like a little, hairless, pink puppy...

I'm looking forward to a calm and polite discussion about this. Articles about breastfeeding, birthing, and child-rearing bring out the best in everyone.

I sent in my resume for the Science Editorial Fellow! Hope to hear back from you soon! :-D

This is kind of weird but I'll share it anyway. I've always been very open about my body and never really tried to hide it. Some people think that I might be a little too open about it but whatever, it's my body. Well, one time a website offered five figures for unaltered pictures of my body and then they made a post…

It's also full of shit. It wasn't because she didn't like Beyonce, it was because she said some surprisingly shitty things and refused to accept they might be shitty when people were like "uh, that's shitty."

If you were as "down for the cause" as you purport to be, I would think you'd be a little more careful how you, as a White woman, interacts with a Black person, given this country's legacy of treating Black adults like children. My 36 year old brother gets called "boy" at least once a year by some White store owner or…

As a Black woman living in the U.S. of A. I'm so used to being talked down to and patronized on a daily basis...that's just part of the deal living in this country and in this skin.

Am i right?

I think it matters because it helps to normalize homosexuality. There are wonderful, successful, celebrated historical figures that some might be surprised to learn were homosexual, and it might persuade them that it's okay.

Had to laugh at your comment, because as a kid I had...glasses, freckles, a funny laugh, weird interests, red hair, and mixed heritage (irish/hispanic).

You're assuming that sexual reassignment surgery is basically frivolous, like getting breast implants, or as you say, hair transplants. It's not. From what I've heard from transgendered people, sexual reassignment surgery is like someone with bipolar disorder getting their lithium. I heard someone describe it as "the…

This is the fundamental problem with America. "I don't want my tax money to pay for X..." (and it's everything but bailouts and wars)

Seriously. My taxes pay for a lot of shit I don't believe in or sanction. It's like these people just realized that thanks to their affluence, they actually have to invest in their country?

For 40 years, the somewhat more well-to-do segments of the public in the US and UK have been told that they are not citizens who participate in a democratic system that tries to do the best for the most people, but rather that they are "TAXPAYERS" who have special privileges and are entitled to get everything back…

I don't want my tax dollars (or tax fractions of a penny) to cover Chelsea Manning's incarceration, because I don't think she should be incarcerated. I also don't want my tax dollars paying for the kind of war crimes she exposed. But here we are, @dfbaskwill. Here we are.

I'M NOT CRYING! SHUT UP! YOU'RE CRYING!

Eek, I'm gonna be in the grey zone forever, but here I go:
