I have/had the same experience. I had standards, and I have a great husband.

That being said, my standards were not so narrow as to be truly difficult to fulfill. The very biggest standard that I have is that my partner sees me as a sovereign person with my own agency — you know, a real, gosh-darn whole person with…

"I thought of all the things I wanted from a partner and became that person myself."

Timely. I've just written snarky replies to two well-over-my-age-limit men who figured they should be the ones to let me know that after reading my profile they're sure I'll never find a man. And my reply was "that's fine - I'd rather be alone than settle for some entitled old guy who'll talk down to me at the same…

I've got this awesome hippie Wiccan facebook friend, and she posted a link to an article about vaginal steaming the other day, and no lie, Facebook's top "suggested link" underneath my friend's post was a link to a food.com recipe for steamed clams.

I don't know how women with those many skirts didn't die in the snow/ice.

I used to have a saturday job in a bakers, long before gay marriage was legal in the UK. It was a classy, nice family place, but we would also bake cakes in the shape of boobs, (in different colours, and with different prices dependent on cup size!) and wedding cakes of all sorts. We'd happily do 'wedding' cakes for…

Libertarian Troll. Not the most dangerous kind of troll out there but possibly the most annoying.

Are you just picking words out of a hat at this point?

My best friend used to do big business in erotic cakes. Real veiny triumphant motherfuckers. She does non-nudity pastries now, but says that she will gladly send this guy a gay erotic cake.

Any time someone talks about whether or not the terrorists have won, we've all lost.

It would be almost impossible for me not to respond to their complaint by mailing them a giant poster that said, "SUCK ALL OF THE DICKS, YOU ASSHAT. And stop wasting time and taxpayer money on this shit."

This post reminded me that I need to pick up my vegan uterus-shaped ice cream cake with "abortions rule" script.

Yeah, the whole first half of the bible is basically, "worship God or die. Painfully."
Of course, it's the second half that then comes around to the "don't be an asshole" idea, but that's more of an expansion pack, not the original.

"i'm not religious, but i know enough that most of the big religions started basically on the "don't be an asshole" premise."

Did they? It seems like most religions historically are pretty big on: "if you slight our gods in any way, they will fuck your shit up".

Good for Miley! Schwarzenegger is really hard to spell, plus misspelling/regularly forgetting your boyfriend's name lets him know who calls the shots in your relationship.

When I rented I was held liable for damage to my apartment that I created. Why would a man not cleaning up after himself thus causing damage to property not be held accountable? Absolutely ridiculous and I hope the landlord appeals. It sounds like this judge cared more about this guys masculinity and "domestication"…

I just do not understand how he's making the leap from "men must be allowed to pee standing up" to "peeing standing up means they can't be held accountable for making a mess." Like do we even need to start listing all the things you have a "right" to do in your home that can still lead to property damage and the loss…

My husband is Iraqi, and apparently no one pees standing there. I think he said the consider it unclean. Which is FABULOUS! The lid is always down and no accidents of missing the toilet. We lived with my parents for a while and my 16 yr old brother left the bathroom constantly reeking of urine. My husband was…
