Rihanna and I have the exact same hair. We are also both currently bra-less. What I am trying to say is that I am basically Rihanna, you guys.

I have feelings of horror when I think of never have I ever. I joined a sorority in college (I know, I know but everyone was doing it) and there was this sleepover for the pledges. And we played the most frightening game of never have I ever EVER. No one could think of things they hadn’t done after a couple of rounds…

What the absolute fuck. Why would anyone think this was ok? Jesus Mary and Joseph. I hope the airline took proper measures on training, or sexual assault laws (since that is very much what happened). Or at least, AT THE VERY FUCKING LEAST, offered an apology.

Holy. Shit. At least nowadays you can just take pictures of the guy and shame the shit out of him and the airline on Twitter. That is fucked up.

I got physically tense and my heart rate went up reading that. I feel livid for her! I’m really impressed that she was brave enough to speak up for herself. I’d struggle to make a scene, and I’m 30.

The flight attendant should have asked Mr. I Need Quiet to switch seats with your sister.

Ugh, a guy did this to me when I was flying home from college once, a cross-country flight. I am still proud of myself for telling him to move back, because I was not a very assertive teenager. He was pretty huffy when I told him to move back.

My wife and I were cozied up next to each other on our flight back from our honeymoon, sitting in isle and middle of a 3 seat section.

Polite, shy teenage girl sitting in the 3rd (window) seat, laptop and earbuds etc. keeping to herself contently.

The Helicopter-poster parent, overprotective mother a few rows up asks…

My little sister called me upon landing after her first cross-country flight in TEARS. She (16 at the time) was so freaked/icked out by the much-older guy seated next to her. He raised the arm rest immediately after taking off, and proceeded to rub against her the entire flight. She said he used his arm/shoulder to…

I had a woman do this! On my way to Dubai (then onwards to Baghdad) from DC (looooooong flight), evening flight, mostly empty. I had the most blessed thing occur - I wound up with the middle row all to myself! I developed immediate plans to drink several vodkas and pass out, for once, comfortably. I stayed in my end…

As the daughter of an older Asian woman, let me first congratulate you on making her happy, and then let me congratulate you on winning her as an ally. Trust me - they may look cute and dainty, but piss them off and they will find a way to exact revenge.

I mean, I’m educated enough to make my own medical decisions based on whatever reasons I want to. And so are lots of women. Based on the (mostly poor) data available about FASD, drinking while you’re trying to get pregnant (and in the period of time—about 2 weeks—before you know you’re pregnant) presents negligible…

This is my favorite cultural exchange ever. I love when two people who can’t really talk share something that everyone loves, and that’s the empty middle seat. Bless y’all.

The only time this happened to me I was on a flight to Korea and had the window, while a kindly old Korean woman had the isle. We exchanged pleasantries (nods, es she didn’t speak much english) and I silently helped her untangle her earphones. After the plane took off and we both realized there was no one to sit…

WTF? Reminds me of the weirdo on my first flight (at age 18) who spent the whole flight showing me the LABELS in his clothes. They were all DESIGNER from ITALY he said. He was sooooo sweaty too eurgh.

I was once in the window seat of a row of three. There was a gentleman in the aisle seat. As the boarding process ended, it became clear that the middle seat was to remain blissfully empty and I felt immediate relief, until the gentleman picked himself up, scooted over, and started to lower his ass into the vacant…

Yup, malpractice is the 800 lb gorilla in the room.

Well, we have these things called periods. It’s a cycle where our uterus sheds bloody tissue for a few days, or a week or so, for the unlucky among us. With a few rare exceptions, we don’t worry until we notice that has stopped, which happens during pregnancy. Women are much more worried about disease and unprotected…

My mom likes to tell the story about how great her second delivery (my sister) was. Because she was completely stoned. My delivery was a 36-hour nightmare, so as soon as she starting going into labor with my sister, she smoked two joints and THEN went to the hospital. She had no other drugs, no epidurals or anything,…

Also: my son was conceived amid the height of holiday party season. I drank a lot during his first month of nascence. When I found out I was pregnant I called my doctor and started sobbing and she was like “This is literally the most common response I get from pregnant women after the initial surprise or happiness has…
