In the hours to weeks after birth breastfeeding causes a gush of blood out of the vagina as the uterus contracts (suckling increases oxytocin).

I have friends who have gone to some of them. They ate, drank the booze, danced a little and left. They said they had a blast. The trick is to arrive and leave, before the festivities start. Sometimes the invite will give a clue and say something like: “clothing optional after 11pm” or “After midnight the outdoor pool…

My daughter is not with the smocked dresses anymore. She likes the shift dresses. I think the Target collection has soured her on Lilly. She called pretty much every thing she saw “yukky” or “ugly”

The only obligation an invitation places on the invited is to respond “yea” or “nay”.

My four year old loves Lilly Pulitzer dresses. I have been buying them for her, since she was a baby. She didn’t like any of the stuff she saw at Target online. I have a feeling that her love of Lily is about to stop.

I love Dolly Parton.

I was told by many nurses that my obstetrician is one of the few in the area, who does not pressure women into C-sections. He allows women to labor and only recommends a C-section if there appears to be an issue.

I am black. My daughter’s father is white. His mother took one look at her new grand-daughter and damn near sparkled, because our daughter looked white. Four years later she still looks white.

Loving Mos Def does not make you “down with rap”.

YESSS!!!!!!

The difference between saying nigga or nigger to a black person is: One will get you two black eyes, the other will get you two weeks in the hospital.

Keep your long winded diatribes about blacks also owning slaves to yourself.

Your one black male friend and your one black female friend are not “perfect for each other”.

If you see a black woman with a fair skinned-blue eyed child, do not ask her if she wants to pick up some “extra” nanny work.

Not only have I heard it - it has been said to me more than once. White women get a tan and love to throw their arm next to mine and talk about how they are “blacker” than me. I don’t even get mad anymore. I am in my 40s and too old to care.

Do not touch a black woman’s hair. It is not a compliment when you say “oh, it is softer than it looks...” or “Girlfriend! I had my hair cornrowed when I was I vacationing in Jamaica, we could have been twins, with my tan and all....

VERDINE!!!!!!!!! His hair game always slays. His bass lines are funky. So much to love.

I like that dress.

Labor costs are the problem of the employer, if the tipped employee does not make federal minimum wage with tips. If an absolute shitty employee never gets enough in tips to make minimum wage, the employer has to make up the difference.

I have worked as a waitress. My first employer made it clear that if we were not making federal minimum, wage with tips she had to make up the difference. There doesn't appear to have been many changes, since she told me that, so why do people keep saying that tipped people don't make a standard minimum wage? Are some…
