I don't know. As a woman in my 50's I think her emphatic insistence that she is still a sexual being can be viewed as kind of revolutionary.

That's exactly my issue with it. She's not allowed to be sexual or try to post something sexy because she's over the hill, right? Older women should not ask for attention because they should know better, aka they should know they don't deserve it. Silly old hags. What right do they have to demand we look at them?…

There's more than a tinge of ageism in those accusations. She should act her age, I guess. I hope she never does.

I wonder what percentage of comments about Rihanna's naked pics were about how she's "desperate for attention" as opposed to Madonna here, who has been doing this shit since before RiRi was a twinkle in her mother's eye (and looks just as good, IMO). And by the way, of course Madonna is trying to get your attention.…

How so?

All she's trying to say by this is to have some respect for what other cultures treat as important or sacred. If they feel disturbed about seeing foreign people changing the meaning of the things they do, or wear or whatever, just don't do it. That's it.

Can you imagine the frustration of sacrificing four years of your life in pursuit of your dream to be the best in the world, only to have all that sacrifice and progress rendered moot by an uncooperative, Russian winter?

Call us when lots of people died.

My best gaming-while-XX story:

Oh god! Topical! At least in my house it is.

Cheetara. Absolutely. But there is one animated character that rises above the rest.

Alistair!

I hate working, but I hate being at home cleaning the house all day every day EVEN MORE.

I've always used the works of Émile Zola to illustrate how nearly all women have always worked, whether in cottage industry (literally, manufacturing jobs done in the home), factory work or farm work. All of my grandmothers and great grandmothers worked in a capacity that made money for the family (housekeeper,…

As a man I can go out and get shitfaced to my heart's content and not have to worry about whether I'm somehow contributing to my own rape. Why should women have to change their entire behaviors so that they have less of a chance of becoming a victim? There are lots of reasons not to go out and get shitfaced, but if…

Well, sure. They'll be at a disadvantage if their hours aren't as convenient for their customers.

Opening the store for 7 days a week doesn't mean that a worker has to work 7 days a week. For that matter, letting stores open on sunday doesn't mean that every single store is forced to be open on Sundays. Store owners can determine for themselves when their stores should be open, don't you think? And isn't…
