I quit his special around the same time. He wouldn’t let go of his abortion bit, and it just wasn’t funny.

As a feminist, I do not like princesses and I don’t let her participate in princess culture.

Letter writer seems a bit stifling. Only letting your kid wear neutral colors is just buying into the silliness! Anyway, when it comes to the gender draft, girls won on colors. We can have all the colors or none at all! #winning

Parents banned videogames > I snuck in video games to the house and bought every console imaginable when I moved out

For whatever it’s worth, I was a total Disney girl growing up - I had all the princess costumes, I went as Jasmine for Halloween once and wore the costume as pajamas for a solid year after, until it didn’t fit anymore, I had Barbies, I liked the color pink best. I played with makeup starting at age 12 and was

I feel like princesses is a weird ass hill to die on, too. Save that battle for vegetables, or dating boys with goatees.

Jesus I know I’m gonna have my own weird parental hang ups but for fucks sake like let your kid enjoy the things that they are naturally drawn to. Unless it’s like knives and dirty needles.

Not letting your daughter go to a party because you don’t like the theme seems really petty. You don’t need to prove anything, there’s no feminist jury on the sidelines judging your every decision, and I think you should let go of the pressure you’ve put on yourself because it seems counterproductive. Forcing her to

I might be a bit unqualified to offer this advice outside the fact that I was a kid once. Anyway, why not take your daughter’s love of all things princess and turn it into a learning experience? Princesses were often very well educated women, and were expected to know multiple languages, and all other sorts of useful

I am a strong feminist who loves having sparkly nail polish. I wear jeans and flats or a fancy dress. The thing about clothing for women is that we need to stop letting it define us. As long as we are choosing what we want to wear, there really isn’t a wrong, and buying into the conflation of wardrobe and feminism

You know why my daughter gets amazing grades? I only dress her in neutral colors. If she would go full grayscale, she could be valedictorian but I pick my battles.

Trying to deny your kid a thing is the best way to guarantee that they want nothing but that thing.

IS THAT WHY I’M STILL SINGLE?!?!

I have this great home theater set up in my living room. I have maybe used it at moderate volume once since my kiddo was born. Otherwise, I’ve gotten very used to the idea that media is to be consumed with headphones or subtitles.

I’m really not a baby person but OMG THAT BABY. The cheeks, the suit, the totally over it expression, so adorable

And don’t forget the government can also claim it’s anti-crime policies are working.

And don’t forget Trump can also claim his anti-crime policies are working. It’s easy to eliminate crime when you punish the people who report it.

“She believed this manager,” says Gibson, “Because when he was making the threat he was wearing the red hat—the ‘Make America Great Again’ hat—and to her mind that meant, ‘This is a person who really hates me.’”

I assumed it meant that she was taking the husband’s name off the lease, and the landlord was using that as an opportunity to change the terms.

This is exactly as the government wishes it to go - the general environment is becoming far more hostile, and that will incentivize more people to consider returning to the country of origin or just going some place else. Like I’ve said before, the government knows it cannot round up over 10 million people. They are
