Thanks for bringing up some good points. I will continue to try to keep the perspective you bring up in mind and be more sensitive to it, because I think it is very valid.

It's fair to bring up that it makes it a lot more about men perpetrating - and then discussing - the violence than the women who are being victimized. I'm not sure how to deal with that issue, because the kind of racism that is being shown is hard to get at and I tend to think it's worth talking about, but in every…

I don't care what everyone else says, I love the b coops cover and I love all these. Let those freak flags fly, actors! You don't always have to be fresh-faced kids next door! Be creepy goth little house on the prairie dolls for once!

Yeah I mean I agree with you on anything that is repressive of calling out violence, and I think it's bullshit. Facing oppression doesn't exempt a person - man of color or not - from criticism for perpetrating oppression. But I do think that the nature of the discussion is open to critique, and here I'm looking at the…

I cook almost as much as Gwyneth requires, and it's usually pretty damn good food, and I set off the smoke alarm and/or light pans on fire a ton. I think if you aren't having small catastrophes you just aren't cooking that much, or adventurously enough.

I wouldn't make the argument that everyone has to care about every issue equally. But if it is the same issue, and one time you care about it and one time you don't - and the difference is the time you care about it is when it's a black man who done wrong - well, that's another issue entirely, wouldn't you say?

100% right. He is just saying that it seems like he is taking particular rage and even some kind of pleasure in the downfall of a black man due to wrongdoing, but didn't do the same in similar cases for white men. I don't remember who said it and google-fu is failing, but the idea that true equality is when men who…

How I wish I could see the original comment!

I'm not "Team Hart" generally because his standup stopped being funny to me and started striking me as very sexist, but yeah, I'm Team Hart on this particular matter.

So I have been dying laughing since my friend's 3-year-old referred to her vagina as a "ladybutt." Then, when she went to a public restroom with her dad and saw his penis, she called it a "silly wiggly man-butt." DYING.

did you put dry mustard in it? I like this recipe: http://theclothesmakethegirl.com/2010/06/03/the…

BAM

Well, I read, I believe in WSJ, that Just Mayo is claiming that this is the reason they are called "mayo" and not "mayonnaise" - also technically correct. So really it comes down to intent.

I also thought maybe, "FACE IT!"

Sounds like a conversation I've had at least 8 million times this year with Mr. T! I have faith it will get better. But for now, it's a tough gig. I am working on compassion for myself.

Hold the baby in. People said that to me when I was out and about and about to pop. It's crazy that this guy did this because most people do not want to risk a woman going into labor and disrupting their days.

Even if I didn't agree with you, I would love this article for working "folderol" into the prose. Let's make that happen.

Y'all can bitch to me. I'm a working mom and I totally feel for you, SAHMs. We all have a tough time sometimes and it's OK to have a hard time with your life choices. I do sometimes, too. I'm sure everyone does.

Good point. Thanks for making it. I will be mindful of mentioning it in future conversations - it's definitely something that there is much less focus on, probably because it hasn't been as well understood. I'm glad we are getting better at this science thing!

It's just because biologically, prioritizing your career and delaying pregnancy past your 20s and 30s means that, as a woman, you are risking infertility and complications. And if you do have kids, you really do lose out (see many recent studies on the penalty in salary and advancement that women pay when they have…
