In my line of work, if I bring up my child, work-life balance, or whatever the response is “Well you shouldn’t have chosen this line of work then!”

“I pay $7.30 a day for my kid, it’s about to go up to around $15 a day for people in my income bracket”

I just want to add that parents aren’t the only ones who need flexibility. Primary caregivers (read: usually women) of other adults (e.g. sick parent, spouse, sibling, even friends) also require flexibility. This is an issue that can effect anyone, regardless of their procreative status.

Time that is their own, time that is not being quantified by an employer, time where they can be human adults and parents and find the mental space to look around and feel the blazing fullness of being alive.

It was my Fantasy Basketball Team name for about 4 years.

Hey man, it’s always nice when you don’t get any Santorum on your Caucus.

I always feel like I’m overshadowed by the Lauren B.s and the Beccas

It never ceases to amaze me how people can try to “stand up to something” and “prove them wrong” by acting in the exact way they are being accused of. “Women are claiming we harass them, I’ll show them through, oh I know, a campaign of harassment. That’ll prove my point, I’m a freakin genius!”

See, for me when I read that word I read it as WOMB-MEN as in little tiny men that live in your womb, on guard and ready to attack any foreign Womb Pearls that come it’s way

That’s something that a lot of this type of “rule changing” seems to forget. In cases like these it is usually a very much wanted pregnancy that’s given rise to the problem. A fatal fetal abnormality is generally not something that you find if you’re not interested in actually having a child. Suddenly being shunted…

White, well privileged with access to quality health care and support if she became pregnant but also with access to high quality birth control options and a complete inability to empathize or understand that some people may not be so privileged. That’s my guess anyway.

Who is the young woman in the front? Why is she doing this? What is her story? I can understand simply not wanting to have an abortion, even risking your own life to not have one, but I can’t understand taking the choice away from other women, even if I don’t approve. How can a young woman of child-bearing age mess…

I am currently in the midst of a very high risk pregnancy. I also had a “missed miscarriage” at almost three months. The miscarriage was totally traumatizing on every level, but the one blessing was that the D&C I had to have was performed by my longtime OB. If- goddess forbid - I find myself carrying a baby with a…

They each have a personal twitter account as well as an official joint account? The thirst is real. I have decided I hate them and I will not be swayed.

Now of course you MIGHT be wondering, well how can they “detect” impure thoughts so that they can prosecute her in front of a jury of her fears!?

Other parts of the bill include: if they can detect that a woman has had unpure thoughts about a man outside of marriage (as early as thinking the word “he”), they can cut off a hand. If they can detect she’s had unpure sexual thoughts about a man (including her husband) INSIDE a marriage, they can cut off two.

This shit right here is why I’m voting for whoever the fuck gets the Democratic nomination. There is too much at stake for this hyperbole that Hillary is just another republican. Tell that to my uterus assholes.

I fixed a door today. I fixed the fuck out of that door! I’m gonna reward myself with 4 orgasms tonight! Fuck yeah!

Fuck yeah. I love this.

She killed my Brother in a knife fight in Saigon, back in ‘73 and on that day I swore revenge. Now, 43 years later, my opportunity is here and bitchy internet comments are my weapon of choice.
