I agree. I often see local stories and wonder how Jezebel would react to them, mostly thinking about the commenters. Please no com.au!

There have been a few nice tattoos, but mostly it just seems like people going on to be mean to their “friends”. On one particular episode a girl didn’t agree with how many people her best friend had slept with so she picked this tattoo for her. I have no idea why anyone would want to go on the show other than to get

A few years ago when these rumours really began to swirl around him I made the decision to stop watching his show, because to me they had a ring of truth to them. When telling one particular friend of my decision he told me I was being “hysterical” and becoming “one of those feminists that nobody likes”. I would love

One day when I was about 10 or 11 my mother came home with this little poodle type dog she had bought from a pet store. My mother didn’t like dogs, especially little yappy ones, but said she just felt a connection to it and felt she needed to bring it home. The dog stayed by her side constantly, and slept beside her

I have been extremely fortunate and have not yet lost anyone close to me but I just found out that my mother (who I cut out of my life 13 years ago) is dying of liver failure. I’m not quite sure how I feel. On one hand I feel sadness about the prospect of losing a parent, on the other hand a small sense of relief that

Oh lord. What a bunch of babies

Wait.. So do you guys have to choose between midwife care and OBGYN/pain relief? That’s awful if that’s the case! I birthed my daughter in a hospital and my midwife stayed by my side, even when I relented and asked for an epidural (that didn’t even work anyway) and coached me through pushing/contractions until my

I have a 9 month old myself with very similar sleep patterns. I’ve tried sleep sacks, white noise, shushing machines, you name it. I read up on the Ferber method and cry it out and decided it wasn’t for me, because like you I don’t want her just crying herself to sleep. You know what? Some babies just don’t sleep

At 9 months there should absolutely be at least two meals a day. From about 6 months old babies don’t get enough iron and other important stuff from breast milk alone, that kid needs food.

This is my theory too. Perhaps he will give a brief explanation/apology to the people who have been worried about him at the end of the series and then bow out of public life completely.

Yep I completely forgot about that. She is horribly transphobic.

I love this so much

I think a lot of it comes from the fact that she is not only cocky, but at times a bad sport. Her refusing to shake Miesha Tate’s hand after their fight really solidified my dislike for her. I was at the UFC event in Melbourne when she lost to Holly Holm and cheered her loss along with everyone else in the crowd

If she’s going to stay with the same camp/coach then yes she should probably retire. She’s made enough money so she shouldn’t subject herself to more brain trauma. Edmond Tarverdyan effectively killed her career by convincing her to abandon her base (judo) and try to box with far more talented strikers. It’s quite sad

I found a relatively small (15cm span) huntsman in my daughter’s baby swing last week, I’ve been having nightmares ever since. No way could I sleep knowing that was anywhere in my house!

I’ve seen plenty of snakes, been bitten by a spider (not a killer one thankfully), chased by an aggressive kangaroo and had a box jellyfish swim in front of my face. Still wouldn’t live anywhere else though!

As someone who gave birth 6 months ago the image doesn’t make me angry but it certainly helps to reinforce the bad feelings I have about my body post birth. Deep down I know it’s unrealistic to think my body would “snap back” but seeing celebrities on the cover of magazines bragging about how they got their body back

I was once approached by two very lovely looking old ladies who tried to sell me tickets to this! They told me it was a community play and I asked what it was about, they started telling me that it was a redemption story of a wonderful man who had been falsely accused of sexual assault by evil, twisted women etc. I

It is currently 5am local time as I write this. My 4 month old has just started teething and is also doing the whole ‘sleep regression’ thing, so I’ve been awake every 45 mins since I went to bed last night, and I’ve not had more than 3 hours of unbroken sleep since she was born. I’m at the point where I’m prepared to

The very last time I ever went to a nightclub was for my partners birthday. The place has a reputation for being pretty gross but the music is good and drinks are $5 so we always had a lot of fun. On this particular night I went off to the bathroom which had three stalls. The first two were occupied so I pushed the
