Crying? What if she has a baby in the middle of the debate!

Wow. Seriously? At no point did I say I had no sympathy for the younger generation, but you seem like you might benefit from exercising a little. Do you think we didn't take out loans to pay for school? Would you like to see the 6 figure student loan debt that my husband and I are paying off because our parents

I always thought of millenials as the children of Gen X too — probably because I have a daughter and she's a millenial, and I'm at the absolute tail end of the generation, so other people were having kids way before me. But somewhere in the media, the story became that millenials are the children of later Boomers, and

I do, but it's because I feel we disappeared off the map. We were the first children of the boomers, but when the Millennials came along they were described as 'the children of the boomers'. So, where did we go? No one is interested in us, it seems, and I certainly never here about the problems Gen X has advancing in

I was born in the 70s and would like you to get off my lawn now.

No problem! It happens.

She's linked in the post.

Did you ever read Ferret's posts about it on lj? Reading the comment section was just.. mind blowing. Especially when they were implying that its women's duty to allow nerds to fondle them because they had rejection in high school! The whole thing is mind boggling.

I'm absolutely going to suggest it when we get there. Which will probably be sooner than I think. Thanks!

In this case, Valentine was approached by this man on 3 separate occasions, despite having already told him she did not wish to speak to him any longer, and she physically removed herself from his presence. I think you have to be awful dull or, conversely, awfully full of yourself, to not know you're making someone

I did notice that in your article — I just wanted to give a little more information on it. The idea that her fellow models stuck up for her in an industry that's often characterized as indulgent and secretive at that place and time just really struck me as amazing. It's something I wish we saw more of. (Not

Beverly Johnson, Carol Alt and the director were on NPR yesterday to discuss the documentary. Johnson had a lot of fascinating things to say including the story about finding out she was paid less than her white co-models — she said it was the white models who both told her about it, and stuck behind her when she

I'll go look.

The exception that proves the rule?

One of the reasons we haven't made a dent in our loans is because we spent the last 8 years putting my husband through his PhD program. When he went in, academia was a much different place and the idea that she could go to school for free wherever he ended up teaching seemed reasonable. Fast forward through our

My daughter is 14 and I want to vomit every time I think about her college coming up in 3 years. My husband and I are paying off a combined 100,000 school debt and we haven't made a dent in it yet.
