Well I've never seen the show (as a rule I don't watch reality television when I could be watching quality sci-fi shows instead), but as a polyamorous woman in a happy, loving marriage with her husband of 14 years, and a happy, loving relationship with her boyfriend of 2 years, for me the experience has been extremely…

Wow. As a polyamorous woman in a happy, loving marriage with her husband of 14 years, and a happy, loving relationship with her boyfriend of two years, I'd like to remind you that anecdote is not evidence and your experiences are not everyone's experiences. Maybe you should take a long, hard look at the common…

"This muddling of gender identity is new and no one has shown it to be an "improvement" over what the world once was."

You're right. It's useless. If you really don't believe that women have been oppressed and forced into dictated “feminine” behaviors determined by patriarchal norms (established by both men and women) for thousands of years, and that in many parts of the world they are still being oppressed, and that efforts to…

Some did. Most didn't. The expected gender behavior was that housework and childrearing was women's work. That expected norm has changed/is changing in Western countries, thanks to feminism and challenges to stereotypical gender representations in media and marketing. Even now, however, you rarely see men in…

So to sum up:

Yes! For thousands of years boys have played with toy cars and girls have played with Easy-Bake ovens! In ancient Mesopotamia boys were playing with Star Wars Legos while girls were pushing toy vacuums! The way it is is the way it's always been and the way it will always be! Trying to push for equality or modify…

Gawker and Jezebel are liberal. But this article, as NoMoreMasculinity is implying, is not inherently liberal. Advocating for non-gendered toys doesn't have to be politicized, but NoMoreMasculinity takes great umbrage at the idea the boys might want to play house and girls might want to play car garage and so has…

Wow. I guess all my recollections, as a straight female who loves men, dresses, and make-up, of playing with Legos, toy guns, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles action figures, and video games are fabricated huh? And the times when my straight younger brother played house or Barbie with me? Must be made up. Gee my whole…

Yep. That's why you won't find any articles on here criticizing Sarah Palin, Jan Brewer, Michele Bachmann, Ann Romney, etc. Nope. None at all.

I didn't mean to imply that she wouldn't look good, I think everyone, no matter their shape or size can look beautiful, it's just there are elements of our culture who think that plus-size women being sexy is gross/funny/sad etc, and would turn her picture into a joke or insulting meme or something. That said, I…

I love you for your use of absconded.

Again. Thought exercise. Read the article again, replacing Kate and William with Princess and Prince to challenge your mind to think about these issues in a real way instead of salivating over Princess shiny hair.

I'll share my titties and beer with you if you share some CEO jobs with me. Deal?

Again, this is a thought exercise about the rights of Royal women, not a specific dissection of William and Kate’s relationship desires. Even if she was informed about the freedom exchanges before marriage, does that make them right? What if after the marriage she and William decided they didn't want kids, or she…

But that's not the question here. The question is what if she didn't want babies? Would she and William still have been allowed to marry each other? Would they be allowed to adopt or not have children at all? Not everyone wants kids, but with the Royals, I doubt the decision is up to them. It's less of a…

While I agree with you to an extent, I think we should still celebrate the fact that women are being given equal representation as comedians in this forum. Baby steps and all that.

Um, as someone who does not find Jim Carrey, Ben Stiller, or Will Ferrell funny at all, let me take your comment and reverse it:

Of the article which says:

Why don't you read the last sentence. Go ahead. I'll wait.
