I thought this was a series that was actually about yellow fever and i couldn't figure out why that was a problem.

yeah yeah, this is a nice idea. the pretty but approachable women learn they're prettier than they are. super.
you know what i'd like to see? an ad that doesn't say, "you're prettier than you think." i'd like to see an ad that says, "your beauty is not the only fucking thing that matters."
A woman in the ad actually…
I like working in rougher neighborhoods, I think I'm some sort of masochist-idealist hybrid. I'm working in a wealthy town in south jersey right now and I'm bored out of my mind. It pays the bills but I can't wait to get back to a high needs population. I'm glad your kids are in a good school and that you're working…
i'm starting work as a special ed teacher in philadelphia next year, but i've worked in new orleans, camden and haiti and run into the exact same thing. there's so much talent and potential out there that is completely wasted. plus if a kid gets slapped with a SPED label, even something minor like ADHD, they're…
I think the people who are really pissed about it are unable to figure out how to use the format. that's been the case for me, anyway. Plus i can only read the first 3 or 4 comments before i scroll into a clusterfuck of overlapped text. I haven't been reading a lot of jezebel this week.
it seemed like it might be a fantasy he has, and she's decided to indulge it.
agreed. i'm all for it.
"i know cooler heads should prevail, but..."
it's not for everyone, simple as that. do your thing!
that is some ridiculous shit.
i had my beloved at "health insurance."
i'm curious to see how that idea plays out in my circle of friends. i've been with my partner since we were 18, and we've lived together since 21. on the one hand, learning how to be adults together was really hard, on the other hand almost everything we know about running a household we've learned together, so we've…
FUCK! Missed the boat by two months.
fuck, that sounds awful. i've been with my fiance since i was 18 (25 now) and while there's a lot of perks to it, i can't imagine being that much of an asshole to people who haven't been in a long term relationship or aren't in one at that moment. who cares? everyone has a different life trajectory.
i think you're right.
"hey, no need to put yourself down, you've got amazing blahblahblah. wear what makes you feel good!"
i have a general preference in guys. i like them to be my height or taller, on the thin side without being super bony, and with a general scruffy rocker vibe going on. i tend to like blue eyes more than brown eyes. that being said, i've dated guys who were a little shorter than me, guys who were kind of chubby, brown…
i've always liked playing with my looks, changing my hair dramatically, playing with clothing/makeup, and less intentionally gaining or losing a bunch of weight. it's amazing to me how differently i'm treated if i'm blonde v. brunette, fat vs. athletic, conservatively dressed vs. dressed like a hippie... it's kind of…
if you're acknowledging a bias and actively trying to resolve it, then you're doing something good. a lot of people don't even get that far.
i worked in construction and demolition intermittently during my undergraduate studies, and while i didn't have a problem with the amount of strength/stamina necessary for the work, the sexism i would have to deal with drove me up a fucking wall. i was constantly given jobs tidying up and fetching tools, and i…
