i had times where a guy would stand there and wait for me to finish squatting instead of just going to another machine and it just made me slow down and take my time even more.

Sorry to inform you, that men (including myself) frequently grunt when lifting weights, even when no women are present. It's not a show of bravado, sometimes if you're exerting yourself all out you need to let a grunt out.

Damnit! And here I was all excited about having a response for something I know a bit about - I'm an anthro grad and studied eugenics. Oh well, intense page long responses on message boards is a good cue to take a break from breathing in the literature fumes and talk a walk outside. At least I didn't go so far as to…

The author quite clearly wrote that he boyfriend is unhappy "most of the time." Whether their relationship is based on sex or not, and to whatever degree it is or is not, she acknowledges her boyfriend is unhappy. My suggestion is that a person who is unhappy "most of the time" can probably do better and should at…

If a person is unhappy, he or she should leave. This person wrote that her boyfriend is unhappy "most of the time". Seems like a slam dunk case to me.

Right, but she does not write that "he is happy with that." She writes that he "feel[s] shitty...most of the time." That would seem to make my point for me and invalidate everything you just wrote, would it not?

Unless your boyfriend is a complete loser, he's got to be able to do better than once per week. Dude needs to move on.

Left Eye's arson and fatal car crash inspired T-Boz's 5-point asbestos seat harness.

Huh? So what do you think determines the quality of any given school? If the kids and the parents suck, there isn't much that can be done to make the kids learn. If the kids and the parents are committed to learning, there isn't much that can keep the kids from learning. Kids' and parents' motivations are the biggest…

Looks like poor people really should have thought twice before being caught in the geographically and socieconomically paralyzing cycle of inequality.

I'm afraid that would have to be an overseas destination for me to be able to pop twice on the same flight.

You scoff, but if a woman destroys a plane using a vagina-mounted bomb, you'll be hailing this guy as a hero who tried to warn us.

You know, I've known two men that took their spouses last name, one was a buddy from high school and one was my uncle. I wouldn't go so far as to question their sanity but I'm pretty confident in saying that they are some of the weakest people I have ever known. I imagine that if you think "there must be something…

In my opinion, It all comes down to self esteem. If you are overweight and don't like it and aren't doing anything about it, this might offend you. If you are overweight and happy with yourself, you wouldn't really care about what she is saying anyways. If you are making an effort to In the end, shes some lady, who…

Actually, how people react to her is EXACTLY their problem. She can only control what she writes/says. She can not control the stupid coming from other people's heads. That said, what she said was aggressive, and i can see where insecure people could interpret what she did, that way.

"Always remember: How you react to her is your problem!"

I am going to go against the grain here and say that I like what she did. She looks like she worked hard for that figure and good for her! I don't think she is fat-shaming anyone. The image would have had the same effect (on me) had it been someone 40 lbs heavier, but still firm and looking like they had done the work.

This is where I find a bit of fault with Jez. It's one thing to promote a point of view by saying, "hey, a young girl at a catholic college may need birth control as a solution to dealing with endometriosis, and she should be allowed that right." However, calling religious people non-sensical and suggesting that…
