Oohhh, yeah. You have really put your finger on the weak spot of women’s lib. We hetero women left behind a lot of things that actually made us safer and secure like needing a man to actually have a job before marrying so he could provide, waiting to cohabit until after marriage, and stuff like that. Free love threw…

Hm. I think waiting until marriage to cohabit is a good idea, even if everyone on here thinks that’s crazy. After all, you can get used to unexpected habits like snoring. Better that than think you don’t need the security of marriage, then find yourself on the street and all the hours of labour you put into creating a…

Oh god, I’m 24 and they’re raging. Its like being chained to a lunatic. I lurch from one dumb decision to another. I think i will REALLY, really enjoy being older and getting to do the things I want (peaceful monogamy, gardening, classical music...)

Maybe try and take the focus off him and think about you instead? Do something you like and make it a treat. We all deserve time to ourselves. Have a bath, watch a movie he wouldn't like and try and fall asleep before he's even due home. Or have a girls night the same day.

Just cut it. Honestly. Butt-length hair on a woman of your age just looks tragic, it would be SO much nicer for everyone, including you, if you tried a bob.

I have nexplanon (contraceptive implant) under the skin in my left arm and its a dream. No fuss, no muss, super straightforward insertion and it lasts for 3 years. It can be located on xray if you want it removed at any point before then, you can travel and not have to remember a pill, etc. Plus any insertion in the…

Hey! Don’t pressure yourself, you will be quite vulnerable emotionally for 6 months to a year. Give time a chance. When the time is right, you will segue into dating again, but for now just concentrate on lifting your mood and sorting out the practicalities.

Your dad is an abusive control freak. It is sad not to be able to depend on a father, but such is life sometimes. You can learn from this and never put yourself in a situation where you have to depend directly on him again. Good luck!! Take hold of your inner strength. You ARE worth it. Anger is your friend right now,…

Bar soap is a lot better for the environment bc you don’t have a plastic bottle and pump to throw away every time. I’d rather see bar soap for this reason

Hi! I had horrible ‘undiagnosable’ IBS for like a year and a half a while back. It turned out I am lactose intolerant and also allergic to some kind of bleaching agent they put in flour (the flour industry gets away with putting loads of crap in it and not telling you what). My parents had to pay loads of money for me…

Apparently there actually isn’t any noticeable benefit to drinking red wine once a day; it was just pushed hard by the wine lobby. So it wouldn’t hurt, but a glass a day isn’t going to help you either. So yeah, no need to bother/worry about it.

I’m a Londoner, mid-twenties. I’m practically teetotal. I don’t like feeling mentally blurry, and I have to navigate getting home when I go out which involves getting on and off the tube. Plus expense and calories, like you said. I usually get tonic water and juice when I go out. Oh, and last thing; there is a myth…

Babies don’t feel ‘hunger pangs’ then get over it. They are literally tiny, they have no resources to fall back on. If they are not fed frequently in the first 6 months they will feel starving and in pain. They are NOT adults, they do NOT have adult stamina.

Totally agree. Also it can start looking a bit mutton after a while.

So? One isn't enough. Only children aren't exactly the most well-balanced. Let me guess, you're one of them, probably writing the above from your parent's basement. Poor sweetie!

You're just one of those supercilious twats who lurk around jezebel when you should really just eff off and go back to wanking to pictures of bacon on reddit. Over & out ;-)

Seriously, a mid-size Sedan is just fine for a family of 5. I don't think I've ever even SEEN at 8 person car in England

Lol, Americans!!

TBH, there is probably no 'wrong' decision here. Maybe the maternal age factor is something to consider (increased risk of some disorders) but there is risk in anything.

Of course you will do what you think is best. But if I was your current gf I would be pretty damn resentful that you were curtailing MY reproductive future because you married the wrong woman in the past. I'd give her two kids. Unless she is one in a billion, she'll want them, and if you love her you will meet her…
