I don't think there is anything wrong with voting for HRC only because she is a woman.
Replace HRC with Sarah Palin, still feel the same? I don't agree with voting for someone solely based on sex, race, age, or even political party for that matter. They all stand for something.

They stand for lots of things. so if the fact that you want a women president tops your list of what you want, then go for it.
This might be popular here but it is not in my office... Personal grooming should be done in the privacy of your home. DNW to hear or see you clip your nails at work...GAG ME WITH A SPOON!

I think that with Palin we again run into issues with "sane" and "competent". I think that voting for the female version of Donald trump would not be okay in my book because he doesn't meet the most basic minimum requirements, but if you take a sane, competent set of candidates and choose one based on wanting a female president I don't see an issue. If you said you were voting for Palin because she's a woman I'd side eye but if you were picking Susan Collins over Joe Biden because of gender, it's not what I would do but you do you. Of course they all stand for many things but having a woman finally in that role is one of the many things HRC stands for. It's not a terribly important issue to me but I'll say that if two candidates are equally qualified and I agree with them equally on the issues I care about I'll pick the woman over the man every time. Or I would if the situation ever presented itself.
This is totally random but based on a news segment I heard today: I don't understand why people get all up in arms about the Mormons posthumously baptising people. If it were me and my ancestors, I'd be pretty indifferent, I think. The way I look at it, they believe they're doing something nice. In my opinion it's nonsense, but since I think it's nonsense, I don't see the harm. And if it turns out that the Mormons are the ones who actually have everything figured out I guess I get a free trip to a magical planet of virgins in the afterlife or something, which I suppose is the best possible outcome if they're indeed correct about the universe. I'm probably missing something or maybe it's just my agnosticism that makes me feel this way.

I think it's needy for a single mom to be actively trying to date with a young baby. I understand they deserve to have as much fun as a couple with a baby, but it just seems a bit much to be purposely adding more to your plate.
It's incredibly hurtful, but you sound like an asshole if you have issues gaining or keeping weight on.
I'm not for shaming(or even commenting on) anyone's weight, but don't complain about being able to keep weight on to your overweight friend.
I think it depends on their intentions and tone. If they're trying to fish for complements or get attention... no. But if they genuinely feel insecure about being too skinny, I feel like they should have someone to talk to about their insecurities as well.
I don't like it when women with young kids become contestants on the Bachelor. I would never leave my little kids to go be a fame whore on TV. It just looks too desperate or something.

I have to disagree. Assuming the mom is responsibly dating and not out 5 nights a week while leaving her kid with inconsistent sitters, I see no problem with it. So much of parenting (especially when you SAH), feels like losing the indentity of who you once were. I think if I was single, it would be nice to date and hopefully meet someone to share my life with.

I don't really agree, but I would never do it. Too much effort. Unless I could date my bed and pillow.

I don't. That's my point. I don't complain about weight issues because I know it's rude. But I'm so tired of seeing Tess Holliday pop up in my fb feed being a true plus sized model. I'm tied of the extremes and I'm tired of being judged by my size. No matter what the number. Eta- I've been a size 14, I've been a size 2- all within the last 10 years. I have serious weight control issues and I'm seriously offended by anyone thinking that their size is best. I'm currently a 4 and JUST got comfortable being this small because I've been able to maintain weight. No one has the right to judge my until they know what my body image struggles are. And who are you to assume I complain about my size? (FYI- im not actually mad, I just feel like you need to quit assuming all women are vocal about struggles in their physical appearance)

I don't talk about weight with anyone because IDGAF (pro to growing up with single father?) But I certainly hate all the "you need to eat" comments I get. I eat. I eat all the fucking time. I eat just as much as the next person. I am constantly defending myself with "i eat!" Or "you know what my family looks like-it's pretty obvious why I'm this little."

I didn't mean you specifically, I meant a skinny person doing this in general annoys me. I don't assume all women are vocal about it; most aren't in my experience.
