I could not agree more. There's a pervasive misunderstanding of feminism on this site (not by all, but by many) that really disturbs me. Feminism is not about women getting away with whatever they can, because history owes us that. If a woman cannot victimize someone, how does that not set her up as lesser—less

Yeah, but if the roles were reversed, we wouldn't suggest that some man who can only get his jollies by exposing himself to unwitting and unconsenting women should be able to just go on about his business because that's what turns him on. I'm really bothered by this, not only because I think it's unfair to a man (or

I can't believe you were even able to dwell on the Jez insult, Jessica. I spent the whole time checking out Courtney's bod and how cool she is to be riding on a boat. That is what the article was about right? Oh, shit. Sorry, I mean it's about how she's friends with Tilda Swinton and Michael Stipe (that guy is all

Dear Aubrey Plaza,

I'm as uppity about proper dental health as the next guy, but I think Ms. Winehouse might have bigger fish to fry than some jacked choppers.

I will give Gaga whatever she wants to tweet back, "Okay, José. Why don't you get that room? Why don't you wash your face and take off all your clothes? And I'll be there in five minutes."

Yes, they absolutely are. Beyond that, I don't know why she even needed hose. It's not cold and approximately 2 inches of her skin are even exposed. This is one giant question mark for me.

My hate-hate-but-unable-to-walk-away relationship with Glee has gotten to the point where my mom called me to ask why I keep watching it. "You hate that show! Just stop watching it!" She begged. I remember a similar thing happening with the OC (don't judge) where I just couldn't give up on something that had once

You mean that she's obnoxious? Agreed.

Detective Stabler is hanging up his badge.

No, you're just too much of a prude for the Kardashians. Don't despair, I'm pretty sure Ron Jeremy is too much of a prude for that klan of miskreants.

Also, it's pretty obvious from the photo that both people were consenting to have the fact that they share a gynecologist go public. In fact, since it's not a violation of HIPAA, this makes me love both women more. It's just a tiny step in normalizing the fact that yes, women have reproductive parts and no, there's

You're hearted for me too! (Theme from "Endless Love" starts playing.) But I remember why I hearted you: your utterly brilliant screen name. (The two run to each other and embrace.)

Ok, but can you comment via the mobile version? P.S. I'm muchos jazzed about the hearts. I love seeing a heart appear next to someone's name and thinking, "I wonder if they even know I love them. I wonder if they know that when I lipsynch, 'Lady in Red,' I'm thinking of them."

On April 10th, I identified the Seychelles as the most likely of all the many rumored honeymoon locations - another huge coop!

You know what I can't handle? These 9-year-olds talking about how jazzed they are about their new "record." Joe Jonas, have you ever seen vinyl that's not in the form of pants? In the words of Ani Difranco, "People used to make records as in the record of an event; the event of people playing music in a room. Now

Yeah, but it's on Oxygen and has an obvious "I need to rehabilitate my image" bent, which always feels desperate to an audience and thus, almost never gains traction. That's a far cry from the Paris of 2005 who was annoying and ubiquitous, but an a-list star, no less.

Exactly. Doctors get impatient, but more than that, insurance companies do. They've realized that even with the extended time required to recuperate after a c-section, it's less time than a person being in labor for say, 2 days. The other option, as I mentioned, is the introduction of pitocin to speed the process

[www.npr.org] You're right; c-sections make up 32% of births. In the celebrity community, my (ultra-non-scientific) poll shows they make up about 90%. Regardless of the actual statistics, I took issue with Marathon Junkie's implication that it's none of our business why VB delivers the way she does. So a tabloid

Re #2: Well, except that this information is usually shared in the tabloids, so I don't think palegirl's question is inappropriate. I admit that the sheer number of celebrities who deliver via c-section raises my eyebrows, because it's so disproportionate. Breach babies just aren't that common, and neither are
