"just tell us what we can do with it in our everyday lives" - that's what they think they're doing, and that's the problem.

Awwww. You're doing it again! *cheek pinch*

I really like this point. You can apply it to other crimes, and I'm not sure why we can't just apply it to rape too. The reasonable thing to say, and the thing that most of our moms tell us, would be "It's safest to assume the worst of people and protect yourself accordingly." However, this does not automatically mean…

Thanks for mansplaining, bra.

They need a teet to suckle.

I'm confused. Under what law (in the US anyway) could you possibly be arrested for refusing a surgery? It seems like a slippery slope. I understand the doctors' misgivings about letting the women delivery vaginally after previous C-sections and that doctors always worry about getting sued, but it seems terribly…

Also, judging by the fact that all my favorite "big girl" bra brands are based in the UK (where the study was done), they probably tend to be on the larger side too. But I could be wrong.

I think I've read that 36C is the average bra size in the US, so D would probably qualify as "medium."

I'm assuming that happened to you once while drunk at a bar, not every day on your way to work in the morning. Also, that's pretty vile, so I guess you've made clear that we should agree to stop applying what dudes like to women?

I'm gonna start asking guys on the street to show me their dicks. Hope they like it.

It's like if you go up to a stranger in a yellow sweater and tell them they should be wearing blue, because blue would look more flattering. It's rude and it's none of your business, it's my life, maybe I like yellow, maybe it's the only sweater I own, go screw yourself. And it's always men doing it to women, it's…

They have a number of ads, and one is specifically targeted to teen dads too. They're harsh and mean but they're meant to be. They're in line with other NYC health department ads against things like smoking and obesity. I didn't like seeing that lady with the amputated fingers, and it was probably insensitive to…

Do they get contradictory messages about professionalism too? Asking for her number at the door would have been unprofessional, but she probably would have brushed it off. Getting her number from the caller ID at work? Creepy and a misuse of company technology, and grounds for termination. If I use confidential client…

Basically what I'm saying is, imagine you're a teenage boy. You forgot your belt today and your pants are sagging. Your male teacher comes up to you to say something, but instead of "pull your pants up that looks sloppy," your teacher says "pull your pants up because the sight of your exposed body is distracting me."…

Lol, wow, "harlot"? Are we in old-timey England or something? No one is arguing that appearances don't matter in our society; in fact, if you had read my comment through, you would have noticed that I stated that. What we're arguing is that the application of the standard is sexist and arbitrary in nature. I'll use my…

One of the purposes of school is to prepare kids for real life. In real life, sometimes you will see sexy people, but you will have to resist the urge to whip your genitals out. You will, in fact, be expected to carry on whatever you were doing. If you are doing a bad job because you are aroused by the women at your…

Just checked. 8oz (1 cup) of plain Fage has 23g of protein. The same amount of plain brogurt has 25g. The amount of sugar and the calcium content is identical. Not sure about the flavored varieties. Not sure whether they are adding zinc (their nutritional chart does not offer the info), but yogurt is generally…

Right... but you're not a rapist... and your intention wasn't to rape that woman. I imagine your boner would have softened if she'd just said "I do not want to have sex with you," too.

I worked in a restaurant for a year during college for extra money. The only previous job experience I had was cleaning horse barns in my rural hometown, so restaurant work was the best I could get. It was hell and I would never want to do it again, ever in my life. I currently work a part-time office job (again, best…

Your dad sounds like a pretty cool dude. I try to tell myself this, but on the opposite end. I work customer service jobs (not restaurant, a clothing store) and when people are rude or yell at me, I try to imagine what could be going on in their lives to make them so unpleasant. I also try my best not to begrudge…
