That is just the surgeon’s fee, which is just one portion of the cost of surgery. The “related fees” attendant with surgical procedures is what puts them into the stratosphere. Like paying for the anesthesiologist, surgical nurses, paying for the operating room facilities, etc.

I was working in an upscale restaurant

I mean, you can raise your child to know that women are people but in today’s society every other person outside of your home will remind him that in fact we are not. With their actions, with their laws, with their assumptions, with their words.

Just a suggestion: it would be interesting if Jezebel did a piece on multi-level marketing, which as far as I can see exploits women’s desire to be both successful entrepeneurs and sexy stay-at-home moms. Personally, I think women are being victimized by the idea that a successful woman must 1) run her own company, 2)…

Because misery isn’t what I look for in my entertainment? I get that the possibility adds veresimlatude and suspense for you, and that’s fine. Major character death and the like adds days and possibly weeks of unhappiness to my real life, and that’s just not what I want out of something I do for enjoyment, sorry.

Did you read the article? Why are you using he/his pronouns?

I love this story so much.

She wouldn't tolerate this crap.

A+ everyone for multiple Jessica Fletcher gifs.

Be brutal with unfollowing and unfriending. It is possible to cultivate the best aspects of it.

It reminds me of the whole taking your husband’s name when you get married thing. As every Jezebel article on the subject illustrates, many if not most female readers either took their husband’s name or plan to, which is perfectly understandable. But way, way too many of them angrily insist that they did so completely…

My husband and I are the same height.

I know this line of thinking is popular but it makes me laugh. It’s basically just an excuse for most women to not date a man for his height by hiding behind the so-called personality flaw that comes from said height. Besides, short guys have every right to be furious that they’re not being selected because of their…

I don’t think most people want to face up to the fact of how much their ideas of beauty and what’s appealing is influenced by society’s ideals and what they’ve been exposed to. They’d rather throw up their hands and claim what they like is inherent, rather than examine their biases and broaden their horizons. While…

I would like to use this as an opportunity to promote Peaky Blinders on Netflix because it is awesome as fuck. Hardy plays a the head of London’s early 20th century Jewish gangs. I am giddy with excitement every time he is on the screen because he rocks the shit out of the role.

I don’t get making up hypothetical hypocrisies.

Handwashing is one thing. It’s the single most effective method of preventing disease and infection. And there have been plenty of clinical studies of that. Hands transmit all kinds of microorganisms, to all kinds of places we don’t want them to be, like on our food, for one.

How many of the women who are doing this have had boob jobs? Somehow I find it hard to believe that someone with regular boobies is doing this. Therefore it is not liberating because you aren’t even presenting a normal human body. You are pushing unrealistic norms onto all the people walking by. Take the implants out…

“It makes me really angry because I feel like the naked human body is a beautiful thing and nobody should be afraid of it.”

And if you are overweight and you criticize anything a thinner person does ever for any reason: you’re just like totally jealous. Overweight people are completely incapable of having legitimate criticisms of people slimmer than them. They are just totes jelly.
