I do personalize. I am a legal professional. This means that I have to analyze my feelings and then basically trash them when it is time to make a decision. I air my biases so that I am aware and that is perfectly okay. In this situation no matter how you look at it..the bad actor was Billy and to some extent Claire…

He should have waited a year after the kid was born. Past post partum. I don’t think he should have lied to her about his intentions but he should have made this transition as smooth as he could. I had legal guardianship of my nephew (his mother was adopted so no blood relation). The judge awarded legal and physical…

Yes because African Americans rule the world....stop the contrived story of African Americans as the gatekeepers for lgbt civil rights.

I am desperately trying to understand how you can expect her to take comfort/help from the co-parent who left her while she is super hormonal. She can’t even just the hand the baby over to him at that point. And I for the life of me never understand the cheater introducing the person that s/he left the co-parent for…

I think we disagree about what a relationship "not working" means. I don't see it is a reason to give up or get out. Especially when your partner is 7 months pregnant.

I feel like about the Angelina and Brad thing. I want them to be happy because of all of those dang kids but they are kinda done for me (in terms of spending my money.

When you have temptation (whatever it is) staring you in the face you really can’t rightfully determine whether a relationship is working. That is why cheating sucks. Ultimately you are cheating yourself and your left partner out of weathering the storm and having a more fulfilling relationship. Relationships take…

I don’t really care how shitty it is. Until homosexuality is seen as normal (something not secretive or to be covered up shamefully) we will never progress. I think that for some lgbt people there seems to be this desire to live in the gray area when it comes to illicitness of gay sex and it almost seems like a boys…

I do think there is a bit of homophobia if the worst thing you can do is out someone as gay. We will let a man cheat on his wife in order to maintain his straight persona because God forbid he has to be exposed to the world...

I disagree...I don’t need to be quiet and only keep it to personal friends/family...again why is the person betrayed made to feel as though they have to continue being the caretaker. I don’t think people realize how much pressure they put on women to basically be the caretakers for all men no matter how much dirt is…

I agree it is in extremely bad taste to share. But don’t be surprised. Especially with the casualness that we pick sexual partners nowadays. I do get upset when people talk about outing though. I wonder, if I were married to a closeted guy (I had no idea) but then found out that he cheated on me with men (blindsided)…

We live in America...which has always been kinda bad for people of color. When do you think that America will be friendly enough for LGBTQs and how do you propose we get there if people refuse to come out?

We aren’t in a place where 50 cents life is in danger. And outing is only bad if you believe that sexuality other than hetero is bad. I don't.

Again too much time on their hands.

I too thought the story was compelling for all the reasons you listed. then Cuba Gooding Jr. starred in the film and then Ben Carson started speaking more. I feel bad for people who genuinely think this guy should be President.

Me too. I have a love/hate relationship with Vicki. I actually loathe her daughter. My loathing comes from the fact that she participates in this crap. Her brother is actually better. He just stays out of it. Oh and her husband is psycho...So I am wondering if all that crap happened with Brook’s how come her husband…

The sad thing is that I hated the women's reaction to his possible fakery than I hated the actual fakery. All I could think was, get a life ladies and work on your marriage Shannon. My mom actually had an illness that resulted in her demise and I still don't care what Brook's does.

That was my take away.

Yeah but this is Rikers. I think they would use the "f-word".

Who uses the word "homosexual" as an epithet? That feels off.
