And those people would be.....

Ironically, we're the biggest prudes in the Western world. I think it partially is our pop culture. Not that it's more promiscuous than any other, just that it's so pervasive and widely-consumed outside of the US, it gives non-Americans the impression that they're all experts on the real ins and outs of American…

I've been married 15 years and did a fair bit of travelling beforehand and didn't get laid once :((((((

Even like 20 years ago when I was living in China, the stereotype was that American women are always free and easy. I was really baffled by it but some friends told me that the state press liked to emphasize that aspect of Western Imperialist Decadence. And I was like, that's bound to backfire. I mean, "Look at all…

FLOWER CROWNS FOR SOME, BIG FLOPPY BLACK HATS FOR OTHERS!

It can also be less than secure unless you are mindful of your security settings. There are multiple reports of creepers using unsecured IP security cameras being used as baby monitors to... well, be creepy.

Our two year old brings it to us and requests a nose -cleaning and tells us about the baby on the box getting “all clean”.

My picks:

Yeah, this is a really nice thing. Newborns nap (hopefully) like 923749 times a day, it’s great to have this portable thing you can take around the house or to other people’s houses so you aren’t constantly trapped under a napping baby.

Hell yeah. We’re on our second one of these (because they do get gross after a year or two). I have NoseFrida’d myself in times of rhinovirus desperation.

Babies start eating solids at 6 months or so, but milk (human or cow) is still a pretty big part of their diet. Toddlers who still nurse aren’t getting all their calories from breastmilk, they do eat solids. Typically they nurse once in the morning, once at naptime and once before bed.

Yes? Or longer? Often until 2-3 years of age. But once you get after 12 months or so it’s usually only a few times a day so nursing in public is less of a frequent and urgent need.

Yeah but honestly? They tend not to like it (even though it’s something that each and every one of us does). It shows “weakness.” What Americans tend to want is a leader who sticks to the same shitty opinion even after it’s been proved shitty over and over and over again. NEVER BACK DOWN! AMERICAN FUCK YEAH!

I think Miscavige is 5’2”? He’s really tiny, and apparently REALLY into bodybuilding. The chip on his shoulder probably adds at least 2 feet to his height.

Yep. We make $80k combined and have one kid. We live in a low cost of living city quite on purpose (aside from the fact that we just like it here all around and have family here). Our house is 800 square feet in an unhip (but safe, quiet, centrally-located) part of town and we drive 12-year-old cars. We are really…

Why not? Pittsburgh's economy is heavily skewed towards education, technology and medicine.

My parents are textbook authoritative parents (it was the 70s—they took classes!) and it has served me so, so well. I grew up independent, and to this day have a wonderful relationship with my parents. And they’re a great model for how I’m raising my son now.

Yes! We seem to be doing Huge Phones again and all of a sudden I need a purse because my tiny ladypockets won't hold my damn phone. And my favorite pair of pants (in all other regards) has fake back pockets. Wtf!

My career has really, mercifully been free of most of this bullshit but (and watch what I’m about to do here, MRAs and other assorted dudes) I completely believe the stories being told here. I’ve had enough sexism happen in other areas of my life that I know this shit is all fully, horribly true.

Hey, Lifehacker is already helpfully showing us how to live off the dividends of our investments, so all of our debt problems are solved now!
