Uhhh, right, but these women weren't his significant other. That would be Huma. These women were simply 'others', sometimes completely random. He had no relationship with these women. He literally picked them out of the ones who responded back to all his spamming. Just because you trust someone from that dynamic,…

It's also a shady, indirect way of blaming the women for 'getting' him in trouble. You know, like, 'my wife wouldn't have been hurt if only the women I was sending dick pics could be 'trusted'."

Maybe in your experience, not in mine.

Please don't be disingenuous. You know I don't think calling people 'white' is offensive, so kindly don't imply otherwise. Calling people like me "clueless" because they (I) don't agree with your singular opinion you're trying to state as fact is NOT merely wanting to be considered; it's wanting to control the…

If you skimmed though the name calling then you didn't read the whole thread because she did a lot of it, in every comment she made.

That's not what she said though. She made it very clear that her opinion was fact and that if anybody disagreed with her it was because they (me, included) wanted to "defend crappy behaviour", were "clueless", "idiotic" and "cretins". Not, 'I think this is wrong and here's why', but 'I'm right, you're wrong, and if…

"Hindu Council"

And just because you personally agree with someone doesn't make you right.

Didn't many Indian people also come out an defend Selena's use of the bindi, including Priyanka Chopra, and Indian writers, and even Indian commenters here? I specifically recall the main 'controversy' being propelled by one person, Rajan Zed, who is a very controversial person himself, and then white bloggers…

People mock it, but it really was a good, useful class. I learned how to scramble eggs (it's harder than it looks, it was even a challenge on Master Chef!), how to write a check, how to create a home budget on Excel, how to iron a shirt, and of course, how to sew. You would not believe the amount of adults I've met…

I like M.A.C. Fix+ Spray. It's good for setting your your makeup and making it look less dry and cakey, especially if you use heavier, powder-based products. It's also good for 'freshening' up your makeup over the course of the night. Plus, it smells nice and feels weightless.

I read that when babies babble, they pronounce all sounds of most/all languages, making it easier for them to pick up sounds and pronounce words from another language. Conversely, if a baby is only spoken to in English, for example, as they get older, the available neural receptors (from something like 100 trillion…

Hello, fellow Ontarian!

"Sometimes, people who know less than you do will have power over you, and you will have to take their shit."

"My life's going okay now. I found school difficult but I'm in a better place at the moment."

Put it this way, it's more of a stretch to suggest that, based on how this mother has presented herself, there's any way she *is* helping her succeed in school, because that would at, bare minimum, involve listening to your kid when she tells you what she wants to be when she grows up.

If you're the type of parent who takes time out of your day to teach your daughter to lie about who you are in the deluded hopes of getting "famous", even though your daughter clearly stated she wanted to be a doctor......

Ugh, please don't pull the sexism card. Home-ec/Sewing is a mandatory class in many schools for *both* boys and girls (mine included and I went to co-ed public), so the only reason why only girls had to take it was because you went to an all girls school. In our class, for our final project, even the guys had to sew a…

Your example isn't mutually exclusive though. I took mandatory home-ec (where we sewed a stuffed animal and clothes) and I still found time to "read and write a bunch". You know, like in English class. And Creative Writing class. And French class. And during class breaks. And at lunch. And at home. Furthermore,…

Yeah, getting your (by all the" yours", I mean whomever's parent is this) mother to argue with teachers over YOUR shitty grades and your mother arguing to take a book off the reading list doesn't sound too different to me. In fact, I think the former is *worse* because it promotes the self-entitlement mentality that…
