She's also actually still pretty young. She started in comedy when she was a teenager, so maybe it just feels like she should be a lot older than she really is. But yes, she is gorgeous and is aging really well.

My friend is very Nordic looking married to a dark complexioned Filipino man and their kid looks East Asian (black hair, almond shaped eyes, fair skin). People always assume he's adopted.

I got the nickname when a very narcissistic and needy friend got mad at me when I wouldn't cancel my plans on a Friday night to come sit with him when he had a cold. Seriously, a cold. Oh, and his boyfriend was home too. He yelled at me and said I was just like the wire monkey in the Wisconsin experiments and it…

I know we've gotten a little off the original topic, but here's a link to the SNAP (food assistance) figures from that era through 2009:

Ha! Yes! You are the first person to guess Harlow even though the avatar is an image from there (most assume that since I work in IT, it has something to do with computers). All five of us turned out pretty well (and pretty good too) and my brothers are the absolute best fathers and uncles. I actually went back…

My mother went from being married to a successful lawyer in an upper-middle-class neighborhood (which, for a variety of bizarre reasons, we were able to continue living in), to having five kids, receiving food stamps (what it was called before EBT) and medicaid and tearing her hear out trying to keep us healthy,…

Single-malt scotch is bipartisanly delicious.

My father, who split when there were five kids between the ages of 6 months and 6 years old (the youngest less than a year old and in very ill health—his twin sister had already died), has never had any contact with us nor paid a penny of child support. I think we sat down and worked it out one time and figured it he…

You're right. I guess I was taking issue with the OP who I'd bet dollars to donuts does not give one crap about the rights of the people being profiled, but just looking for a round to fire at those man-hating ladies who prance around in mini-skirts all day, nor does he, I'm assuming, have any interest nor…

Huh. You're right, that is interesting.

Breanna was probably her screen/user name. Most of us on here don't use our real names either.

No worries. It's a (justifiably) touchy subject.

Gleefully corrected! Thanks. I had no idea.

Maybe they could go an East Asian route and decorate the baby's room like an opium den?

Ironically, almost every new parent I've known in the past two decades has decorated the baby's room with a Winnie The Pooh theme, which is pretty British.

No, I didn't, I'm agreeing with samethingwedoeverynightpinky. I'm saying that *in addition to* the problems that stated regarding referring to Africa as a monolithic wilderness and not the most ethnically and genetically diverse continent, the national borders of Africa are in and of themselves a legacy of colonial…

Naming individual countries would be just as problematic as Africa's borders were pretty arbitrarily drawn based on colonial holdings and not traditional, cultural affiliations. This in and of itself has proven to be at the root of a lot of political turmoil that continues even today.

The angle of the join between the colored and the black part leaves me confused.

There are plenty of feminists (including the author of this article) who think that Quinn is full of shit for this. Christine Quinn is not "all feminism" and the OP said "the hypocrisy of feminism" which, by its very syntax, implies all feminists. So yes, there are some women that identify as feminists that don't…

Be sure you don't smoke around that straw feminist you're building, the sparks might jump and set you on fire too.
