The funny thing is that my husband and I have pretty much the same exact split when it comes to household tasks, but this guy feels like his wife is doing more than he is, and I often feel guilty that my husband is doing so much.

You don’t spend very much time thinking, do you?
No. How fucking dare she imply that these two soldiers, graduates of West Point, an MP and a helicopter pilot, who worked so incredibly hard to even get the chance to attend Ranger school, and then completed it against all odds, how fucking dare she even think they should just shut up and go away and do ladylike…
Household chores and child-related duties aren’t something extra to offer in a trade, though. They’re what happens when you live in a place and have a child.

Okay, I literally just rewatched A Scandal In Belgravia today where Sherlock Holmes looks at Irene Adler’s safe and says ‘I really hope you don’t have a baby in there’ and I feel like this is some spooky cosmic shit and that these parents put their baby in a safe just to make weird coincidences happen for me.

@Rachel Vorona Cote - I read down through every comment and nobody mentioned this: The majority of Western women who keep their original family name upon marriage are still keeping a name of the male lineage.
I had a boyfriend who told me that he needed to be 51% of the relationship, especially when it came to making any important decisions involving the household and our future. Apparently this is stated somewhere in the Bible. Being Satan’s daughter, I rejected the idea.

If you're gonna make a Buffalo joke at least put a little fucking effort into it.
This is a former governor and Fox television host. He’s not making some crazy rant on the internet. He is the Republican party. He is not a moron. He is a cruel, calculating man in a position of power.
His rationale for such a decision is two-fold Huckabee explained, it protects both fetus and mother: “There are two victims. One is the child; the other is that birth mother who often will go through extraordinary guilt years later when she begins to think through what happened — with the baby, with her.
To do this in the first place makes you kind of a dick. To do this in a public forum to children makes you kind of a legit psychopath.
wow. Talk about missing the point.
Flu shot instead of the first dose, it sounds like.
Meanwhile, in real Australian news, our absolute prick of a Prime Minister put his foot down last night, effectively banning members of his party from voting on their conscience regarding Gay Marriage. Instead they have to vote ‘along party lines’, which is anti-Gay Marriage. Australia is the last English speaking…
Somehow the most horrifying thing here is that a 30 year old man told his mother to go to the store to get him a sandwich and a soda - AND SHE DID IT.
Umm, Canada!
