Re: Sexting in the bonds of holy matrimony
I think it's possible that she was just doing boudoir shots in her undies and the person is calling them nude shots in the same way that a lot of Mormons call anyone who has more than a glass of wine a month an alcoholic. HAHA! That would make a lot more sense. And I could see it as even less awkwa...

Re: Sexting in the bonds of holy matrimony
I'm more bothered by the idea of asking friends to take your nude photos.
"Hey Amanda, take my picture."
*takes of clothes* *poses*
"Amanda? where'd you....go?"

Re: Women in STEM
If we do happen to find an unusually large correlation between having a male family member in STEM and girls pursuing STEM, then I think we can make a next step to find ways to encourage non-STEM men to show and share interest in STEM related things. My dad was a commercial airline pilot, which may...

Re: Vote-shaming
I can relate. Also, someone got up at the pulpit and actually bore their testimony mentioning Evan McMullin. I got up and walked out. Inappropriate. So much inappropriate. Ugh. I also saw mcmullinites on facebook proclaiming that the church letter (the one about encouraging members to participate in...

Re: Answers I liked
BQ 87935 about someone processing their father's early, but not totally unexpected, death was answered very nicely, however, as someone who has had major medical issues and has been mocked for taking preventative measures, I can completely relate to the question asker. For some reason, my family th...

Re: TMI questions
The common thread seems to be a profound and neurotic discomfort with one's own body. Between that and the comment about anatomy, you pretty much nailed it. Even if she saw a therapist to help her process being sexually abused (which she should really do!!!), it still doesn't fix how they want a so...

Re: aggravating coworkers
This guy at my office sprays lysol disinfectant spray (the cleaning product) around the entire place like it's an air freshener (it is NOT). There is so much in the air that I can taste it all day and it sets of my migraine problems. Talking to him about it (for that last 10 months) hasn't worked. I...

Re: #87448 - Seven deadly sins
When I clicked on the link to the question I half expected to see April Ludgate bashing fat people. I did not see that. And then I was reminded of why I haven't been on the board in a while.
Re: Obamacare
If our hypothetical single payer system would look anything like the VA, then a big fat no thanks to that. This is why it's bad: http://www.huffingtonpost.ca/bacchus-barua-/wait-times-canada_b_5505110.html And this story doesn't look great either: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3435131/Frie...

Re: Most/least polite dating turn-down
So the most recent interaction involved her sending me a message out of the blue that basically said something like "I know you're probably dating someone, but I just have to say this. I think you're cute and I like you." Um. After much deliberation, I just responded back with a lame &quo...

I was waiting for an answer to rip him. But you guys were nice. I can't help but wildly speculate as to what brought his ideas on.

Re: secularism and the pursuit of happiness
Ok, so I finally looked the address up online. "Exes" - maybe a good idea, but kind of an odd thing to throw in. I figure it's too much to expect for young graduates to have good enough judgement. Or I'm just grumpy because I live in a college town and I hate them and their loud stupid voi...

Re: secularism and the pursuit of happiness
When I read 1984 in an English class, the teacher had us explore the themes by comparing them to historical movements, governments, revolutions, and the like. When we presented our findings, I remember the teacher pointing out something that has really stuck with me. She said that while the AP exams...

Re: Naked Roommate
That's....pretty messed up, in a lot of different ways. I love how the question-asker totally implied that her boyfriend was uncomfortable too. I'm sure she didn't even ask him whether or not he cared. I really hate when women police other women's bodies "for the sake of the men." Like, i...
