Because that’s not the question at hand: the question is specifically about the biological function of menopause. For the vast majority of species on Earth, both males and females retain their ability to reproduce until death, whether that death is gradual over many reproductive cycles, or sudden after a single…

The problem with the study is that it only asks why older women remain alive while completely ignoring why men, infertile people, or gay people remain alive when they serve no reproductive purposes either. It’s as if women’s sole purpose is to have a baby and then they become useless. Males of many species fuck and…

I desperately want to believe that this is the result of a paralegal whose job is just copy pasting names and numbers from a spreadsheet into legal pleadings and that the mind numbing nature of the task means the person failed to register exactly who this was being filed against. And that the lawyer who signed this…

I don’t think that’s quite it. Because policy wise, I don’t see much difference between Hillary and Bernie on women’s issues. They’re essentially identical in supporting women’s right to choose, equal pay, paid leave, etc.

I don’t think Elizabeth Warren is boy-crazy, Steinem. I don’t think far-left women are boy-crazy. I think they’re just socialist.

It might not make you live longer, but eating this way will probably make your life *seem* a lot longer...

I find it delightful that she eats all that ridiculous shit, yet her name is Bacon.

can’t wait until someone tells her that she, too, will die like everyone else

Of course. Shitbags like this ruin the image of “compassionate capitalism”, and the notion that drug companies are altruistic in nature. Which in turn fucks up campaign contributions because revenues are off.

It’ll be YUGE!

It dies, and something else takes its place.

I like to treat myself to a “Sorry Men Suck” cake every Wednesday. Also known as just “cake”.

Work-life balance only became a thing when women flooded the workplace.

Agreed. I treat time like a bank now. Once I account for my 88 hours of *extra* time per year in traffic, work, parenting to the point that kids are asleep, then that miniscule slice of pie left in the bank is for me to budget out to somehow participate in the things that made me ME, made my wife like me, and led to…

I mean, what if I’m drinking because I’m not getting laid? WHAT THEN, CDC? You monsters.

At what point are we called what they consider us - potential breeding stock?

This is my story. Doctor said they get nourishment from the yolk sac for the first 5 weeks. Also, probably means you have fun friends :)

Don’t you have to drink, like, a LOT for this to happen? I was under the impression that a glass of wine or a beer here or there in your first trimester (and especially before you know you’re pregnant) probably wasn’t going to cause this to develop. I thought it was more sustained, heavy drinking all through the…

Almost every woman I know who has had a baby, planned and unplanned, drank and even did drugs and smoked unintentionally during their first few weeks and every single one of them has healthy children who don’t have FAS. It must say something about my friend group, but I seriously can't think of a single person I know…
