Jesus has to be the biggest commie of all in that case; I wonder why she doesn’t talk about that.

To me it seems like he didn’t hear her response, she was saying she does dress up for dates and has no issue with her appearance for dates.

well theres an old saying: 8 out of 10 therapists are useless, 1 is dangerous and 1 is actually good. thats almost exactly my experience

The thing is, women aren’t stupid. I’m sure Greta knew this, and I’m sure she’s been inundated with how women should look her whole life, just like we all have. So if she was dressing that way, there probably was some sort of reason for it, you know? And rather than sit down and discuss possible reasons behind why she…

Or conversely, “It seems like we’re not making headway on an issue that should have come to a resolution some time ago, which makes me question whether you may have more success with another therapist. I’d be happy to make a recommendation.”

Yep a good therapist says “It seems like the issue(s) that brought you here are solved/dealt with, let’s talk again if you need to but for now you are doing great”

If the therapist or patient honestly thought it would make her feel better, I would be all for it. I have days where I dress up and feel absolutely fabulous about myself, and its even better to dress up with spousal unit and admire each other. But the other great part about that relationship is we can also look like…

Yeah but let’s be real. People look for certain markers of attractiveness. Women are as superficial as men. Attractiveness is a subjective and dependent on your target social group. So someone who is looking for a meat head is not going to date a thin hipster in skinny jeans ( I’m not sure if people still wear this).…

I’ve been reading up on the Dee Dee Blancharde case and keep thinking the whole premise sounds vaguely familiar. If it wasn’t a V.C. Andrews novel it should’ve been.

I mean, as a fat girl, I totally sympathize. 6’9 is tall by anyone’s standards. When you are not a “normal” size, no one lets that slip by you. And when you literally don’t fit somewhere, it’s embarrassing.

Jezebel is desperately trying to find something they can make fun of, forgetting how that worked out for Sam Biddle.

Seriously.

Wow, stop snarking on people because their problems aren’t yours. Just... be better. You are not being the person Mr. Rogers would believe you could be.

Snark against tall women, snark against short men, its all snark sometimes around here.

This article is tone-deaf. Ugh. Just edit it and we’ll all pretend you didn’t take that approach.

Yeah...no. As a person who is maybe 3-4 inches taller than you, this article wouldn’t have been written about the fat or the morbidly obese, because according to Jez, every scientific article talking about the dangers of obesity is just trying to fat shame.

So no, it’s not okay to make fun of anyone’s height.

As a society, we really REALLY need to get over the “boys=tall/girls=short” expectation. I am on the tall side of average and so am usually around the same height as people I date, but I try to make a deliberate effort not to dismiss dudes based on height or baldness (another thing we need to get over). I have a…

So someone faces a different set of issues than you and your response is to say “oh boo hoo”? How are their problems somehow less valid than yours?

Height on planes is a non-issue for those around you. Width is the real killer. Like, I’ve sat next to guys who were 400 pounds and maybe 5’8”. I’d much rather sit next to an 8 foot slender person.

I’m around 5’2” and I really don’t get your sentiment here. Just as short women face their own problems and annoyances and being told that they’re “so cute” and “little” or whatever, very tall women face their own set of problems. Didn’t know that this was the Battle of the Heights.
