I don’t want to defend Gwyneth at all, but this particular case couldn’t turn around into a lawsuit for her gang of snake oilers. This woman was following the advice of her “traditional Chinese doctor.”

This is why Canada has universal health care. Everyone is covered, no matter how stupid.

Prolapse is one of those side effects of childbirth people didn’t ever use to talk about.  It happens!

As a vagina owner I have the same questions. I suspect that the answers are 1. It hurt but she ignored the pain as women sometimes do, 2. Yes, and 3. Don’t think this is a real thing.

non-vagina owner here, and I have so many questions.

My vag has been through enough already, thanks.

For the benefit of male pleasure. Well doesn't that put paid to all the nonsense about "well other traditions do it so criticizing it is racist!"

she tried the practice as a way of remedying vaginal prolapse.

Why are they specifically targeting Down Syndrome?

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, women are horrible to each other in the workplace when it comes to pregnancy. Honestly, its not enough to have paid leave. You need temps so other women on the team don’t feel like they’re “doing someone else’s job” when a person goes on leave. Because its always women that…

It’s almost like civilized countries with logical policies are better than far-right shit-holes like the U.S.

My daughter (who works in HR..!) used to work for a French Gas Exploration company here in Australia - GDF Suez.

Some of the City Targets around me currently have pharmacies that provide prescription medications. When I say pharmacy that’s what I mean. When you have a chronic illness, access to a pharmacy to fill your medications, like insulin, your antidepressants, or your asthma inhalers, can be the difference between life and…

Yeah I don’t understand why everyone is directing their anger at her. She’s getting exposure and money, and she isn’t doing anything wrong. Good for her. Get your name out there, and get better jobs off of the back of this! 

This!

Her philosophy should be the same as anyone who had Moviepass last year (like myself)-get what you can, take full advantage, make no commitments, and ride that ship until it stops paying.

Fucking hell, why couldn’t my university have a Target store on campus when I was there? I didn’t have a car, and it would have been super-convenient to have a grocery store on campus where I could walk to it in 5 minutes. Shopping was always a huge pain in the ass, especially on sundays when the campus shuttles…

The majority of students on a lot of campuses don’t have access to cars. My school, on weekends, ran an hourly shuttle to the local shopping/commercial areas.

Yes, there’s food, clothes, cheap furniture, popcorn that makes the store smell like the movies, I can’t find anything wrong.

Having a Target on campus isn’t the worst thing considering that a lot of schools still won’t let you have a car on campus during freshman year. Unless you’re friends with upper classmen, you’re shit out of luck if you need something. I specifically rejected quite a few colleges because of this ridiculous rule. The…
