DISAGREE. She was waving at me. Totally cool, because I'll invite you to our next BFF's brunch, but don't get all up in my RBG moment.

Not a nod to Claudia's earrings (generally mis-matched but thematic and totally on trend for 2014)?!?!?!?! I'm astounded.

That's kind of my point. The only way for a woman not to be penalized for having children is, in the current society/climate generally not to have kids (not to say there aren't great dads out there who do the child raising work and/or stay home (and probably suffer the same job consequences as women)).

This would be more spot on (but probably not funnier) if she decided not to procreate to close the "wage gap" because a parent taking time to raise children is one of the biggest factors in career advancement and consistent or higher earnings.

Well, true. His version of the Bible is, well, a version, I guess. Everyone takes different things from what they read. And omits somethings. And is maybe wilfully blind to other parts . . . . . whatever. And no, marriage per se has nothing to do with it - you could just be monogamous, but in Duck Dynasty world,…

He has a lot of wrong and terrible opinions and the delivery is, well, off, but the fact is — two virgins who marry and then only have sex [ed to add: Duck Dynasty/Duggar Family/extreme(myopic) Bible interpreted sex: no kissing before marriage sex] with each other ever and ever for always til death do they part will…

Why are all sex crimes the same? Each and every sexual crime is equally reprehensible? I mean, certainly, at a point, the ability for a human to feel disgust and revulsion by a crime must max out, and probably not at the worst thing a person could imaginably do, but there are certainly, from a criminal law…

Not for welfare - a since it's not necessarily strict a scrutiny scenario. Probably rational basis review. Voting gets strict scrutiny (I believe, someone closer to this can feel free to correct me). The type of burden will be measured by the appropriate test that is applicable to the scenario, type of rights at…

I am so old I do not have any idea who many of those people introducing themselves are but I still love this. I am unsure if, like Lena, I will vote with my trainer, or in my underwear (pjs?), but I'm all over November 4.

The intention of the theft was to profit on the sale of images of a woman's naked body without her consent. The intent, the mens rea, is driven by the sale of sexual pleasure. The intention behind crimes matters - a lot - enough that we criminalize certain acts when they are done with different intentions. For…

But, "substantial burden" on religion under RFRA does in fact take things like time and effort into account — as well as the moral/religious burden on a deeply held belief (which is how we got Hobby Lobby). So, while I agree, the article doesn't highlight both points, it still sort of comes down to ND having to argue…

"You should cower with shame."

In a rational, non-Scalia/Roberts/Alito driven world, a 2-page form would *never* be a substantial burden. In fact, these lawyers would have convinced their client that it was not worth the hundreds of thousands (maybe millions) of dollars in legal fees to keep fighting this fight all the way to the Supreme Court. …

Unfortunately, so many women are in our same shoes. I really wish people talked about it more.

I was 20 yards from a fire station, 50 yards from my apartment and there were street lights. I don't carry pepper spray, but I have a strong confidence in my ability to hold off jackasses. Also, there was a group - which to me is far less threatening than a single individual. He was showing off for his group, I…

If you're at a bar it's an entirely different scenario. Bars are social places where people meet each other and if you've entered a bar, part of the social contract is knowing that strangers may talk to you - it's how people meet each other. Obviously, respond however you choose. Guy says "you have nice eyes" to me…

Thank you, and SERIOUSLY!?!?!?!? Handmaids and we didn't even know it. Where's my cloak?

Having just experienced a miscarriage of a very-much wanted pregnancy and then read about this, I would actually wish miscarriage for these poor teens. The pain and difficulty of that seems far preferable to having to GO ON TRIAL for pregnancy with the very real possibility of losing (though this structure doesn't…

This seems to me to be the best "make everyone happy" result. I suppose that's why people are unhappy. They can't handle the compromise.

Between this and Amy Schumer there has been a great uptick in hilarious and spot-on feminist commentary. It hits home - at least in my wholly unscientific review of people I know who don't usually think about these things (mostly dudes).
