I’m in my early 40's and I have had a crush on him also. I do wonder if he sort of was saying it because he’s a guy, so to him, he can’t be a true feminist. I know a lot of older men who feel that way, they don’t understand that the term can apply to anyone.

I love Robert Redford too, he was soooooooo dashing handsome back then and I’ve binged on his movies on Netflix. I am also puzzled by his feminism comments, he always seemed like an advocate of feminism (and civil rights) and was also the founder of Sundance Film Festival.

Bobby, I know people will decry my sentiments in defense of your poor soul, but I am beyond delighted that you are willing to sacrifice yourself so that we may have these entertaining posts. It’s selfish, I know, and I do apologize for that, but you are doing a service for us all, so thank you from the bottom of my…

Hooray for you guys! That’s really heartwarming and great.

“Write a goddamn thank you note.”

Hard disagree. Write a goddamn thank you note. 3 lines: “Thank you for your sweet gift. Junior loves the [whatever]. We’ll think of you whenever baby [does thing, looks at thing. whatever]. Love & kisses/gratefully/humbly, New Parent. Same script for all gifts, so don’t worry about being that personalized (unless your…

YUP. This is what people don’t tell you when you’re trying to decide whether to marry someone (at least, no one told me). You need to consider what you’ll need in a partner over the course of your whole life and it’s pretty likely that your sexual needs are going to change. Age is a factor, as are kids, a busy job,…

Its a backhand way to justify her own sexual choices. By putting down others. It’s cool and fun right?

Usually I don’t care, but I didn’t even get past Letter One.

Agreed. Check out Dear Prudence over on Slate, much better IMO

Check your moral compass and consider your options:

“seven year friendship”

I...am so sorry. Holy shit. My mouth dropped open while reading that. That’s so fucking abusive.

This will never show up. because I’m gray, but it is the shittiest prank anyone has ever pulled, IMO. Partly because it happened not on April Fool’s day, but on my birthday.

This headline is so misleading and it’s so, so shameful of you to frame the situation like this. The GIF caused him a seizure. He’s epileptic. Yes, that is assault when you do something with the intent of hurting someone else, whether it’s just a GIF. That troll put him in danger knowingly. Epileptic seizures are…

Alternatives thread.

I'm sending this to my cousin. She insists on telling her toddler that her vagina is called her "body" and now the kid is so confused and freaked out when people use body to mean what it actually does that it is sad and potentially extremely dangerous. Not to mention, it is utterly disturbing on many levels to reduce…

We've always used the proper terms with our kiddo (I'm a biologist, I'm not going to call it a wee-wee or a hoo-haa or whatever). She was then told by other kids she was saying "bad words." Her teacher started to tell her not to say those and she proudly said "My mommy says those are the right words and not to use…

I don't even like wearing too tight pants. Man.
