I buy myself jewelry. Nothing wrong with that.

People say that rape accusations are treated more favorably than other crimes, but I’m more concerned about car theft reports. Like, if someone says I stole their car, the police just assume that because I have their car, I must have stolen it, even with zero evidence! Does anyone ever consider that maybe these people…

Mental illness is an illness. And you have peaks and valleys. And there are times when your behavior isn't the person you'd like to be. But as a person who has a mood disorder, I both resent and reject your position. Having a mental illness does not preclude being rejected for friendship any more than alcoholism does.…

Do people forget that they were put on this show as babies?

That HIV/AIDS is almost entirely preventable is a fact. That a little personal responsibility is all that’s needed to prevent it is not.

Because when you don’t live among racists it is genuinely shocking. I live on a little lily white island of the UK mainland that had a load of grandmas knitting a “Welcome to the Island” banner for the Syrian refugees that were sent over here. And it was great. Also there was cake.

Some people are just ridiculously fertile. My BF wondered why I was so paranoid and use as much BC as I can, then he met my enormous family and was totally onboard.

Or you can just by a bottle of Aleve (or generic equivalent) and take 800 mg. It’s the same drug.

Very grateful for the ferocious winds in freezing nyc right now, or I’d be the only person sniffling and tearing up on the sidewalk.

This story is so moving. I hope Ellen finds out about this.

They should have to prove to the doctor they can’t get an erection. An in-office masturbatory exam. The doctor should be required to assess the ‘hardness’ of erection, if present. In both flaccid and erect penises, exact measurements must be obtained of length, girth, etc. and then compared with national averages to…

Real beautiful.

For me that person is Madonna, and that’s why I’ll always adore her, no matter how ridiculous she becomes. Being a gay teenager in the 80's, at the height of the AIDS epidemic and the gay panic it created wasn’t easy. To have somebody as big as Madonna being a HUGE advocate for AIDS and celebrating gay people the way…

I don’t know why, maybe it’s the stomache flu, maybe it’s the sleep deprivation, but this gave me the emotions. Thanks.

That is a rad story. I bet if Ellen heard it, she would be proud.

I think a lot of people shared a similar experience. I’m glad she’s been such a positive role model (and I kind of hate to retroactively put that scrutiny on her but that’s what it was). I’m so glad you were able to come out, I assume - hope - comfortably to your family because of her influence.

Worst children’s story ever!

Law student here. Essentially, you are right, privilege (spousal) trumps most relevant information. However, because she is also his businesS manager, she can be made testify about that particular relationship. Communications as husband and wife will likely remain privileged and she might not be made To answer those…

I thought this too but I guess that's not the case. You did however give me an idea for a future world with huge crime syndicates all being big poligamous marriages that can't testify against each other because they are all married. You get the dedication when the book comes out.

In civil cases, it depends on the jurisdiction and other specific facts.
