Mr.Infinium and I got married after being together for 5 years, and for some reason the first year was still hard. I honestly have no idea why, because we'd lived together for 3.5 years prior.

Mr.Infinium and I got married at year 5, and that first year was hard. I don't know why. It was just unusually contentious. Partly because of chores. Seriously, I don't think his mom ever made him do chores around the house.

As an ag researcher, I feel like organic is just doing farming the hard way with crummier yields per acre.

Boys are hurt by the patriarchy too. Boys are subject to unfair standards also (sure, not as many as teh ladies, but that doesn't mean they don't burn men just as hot as standards for women do). Encouraging this sort of judgement of peoples' body parts is (I'm about to say it) bad feminism.

Knowing how bad hearing people disparage really small boobs (re: me) makes me feel just sets me against the idea of mocking men for their penis size all the more. I think it's actually worse for guys because they can't acknowledge that those kinds of comments or mockery hurt them, because to admit that makes you a

Yup. It's patronizing, and it reinforces the standards the patriarchy places on men.

Really? As the president of the Itty Bitty Titty Committee, basically no one even considers me to be female at all, let alone attractive.

Nope. Women can change our boobs. Sure, it takes surgery, but we can (kind of) change our boobs. Penises are fundamentally unable to be changed, so mocking a body part that can't be changed is shitty. We tell people not to comment on others' bodies, so why on earth is disparaging others' genitalia ok?

Thank you. This post is so, so hypocritical. And for the people saying that penises aren't the same; fine, switch to vaginas. Yeah. It's not funny, it's not cute to say that you don't think small penises (saggy vaginas) are attractive. It's shitty and you're hypocrites.

I'm going to hope you're being sarcastic, in which case, I fucking applaud you.

Ooh, you're a member of the ATA? Neat, I teach taekwondo in the ATA!

And people wonder why I'm such an angry feminist.

Oh thank fuck. Every single time I read about the terrors of babbys, I get more and more convinced that they will destroy my relationship with my husband, even though we both want kids. You seem like a pretty cool person and it's nice to be reminded that people CAN retain their individuality after spawning.

Lucky! I don't have any offspring-evidence that I'm fertile so maybe I won't have to be a brood mare.

Well, I'm definitely not classy enough to be a wife, so it looks like it's either handmaid or housemaid for me.

That sounds awful, I can't imagine putting myself through that to have a kid. I actually can't even imagine wanting a kid that much.

It's his wedding, too.

Names like Lindsay and Addison were both originally boys named that morphed into girls' names, and I'm so disappointed because I LOVE Lindsay as a man's name. It's probably Lindsey Buckingham's fault.

Ew NOPE.

Likewise; I love to read, and every now and then my husband will read something from the bookshelf, but it's a rarity.
