@andra no, don't give a pass to men on this. Yes women have a role too, but so do men. Without men stepping up this behaviour will not change. Responses that deny their role and responsibilities are contributing to the problem. So disappointing to see this comment.

This isn't new though, it's just a ploughman's lunch by another name? I appreciate the commentary around modelling poor eating habits, but one meal showcased on social media doesn't really tell you the broader eating pattern - maybe on a day that I eat a big lunch, I lean into cheese and crackers with a gherkin and this is ok?

Thank you for sharing this, it is touching and so so relatable. I'm very sorry for your losses and the ongoing burden that you carry.

This seems like a flex - whilst there may be some Gen Z decision makers in these companies, the majority are probably Gen X. It's this generation that deserves the credit, not Gen Z.

Does a spouse get a say in sperm donation?

@vivi.s I think it's more about being treated as equal, to have same sex love regarded as equal to hetero love. The choice a couple makes re marriage is a personal decision, but it's about that choice being available to everyone

Beige, tan etc - no thanks! These colours do not suit everyone, unlike black and navy. As for white shoes, ah nope, nope and nope. Never. Maybe a wedding. But on reflection still no. Ages you instantly.

The unspoken aspect of this is that so many women feel uncomfortable not looking their best in photos - if society makes you feel like you are unable to look tired and drained after giving birth, we have a problem.

Last year, two days after Christmas my father died after a long and debilitating battle with melanoma. Needless to say, Christmas 2021 was not a happy time. This year is our redemption year - we need to ensure his life is remembered and celebrated, but we don't want his passing to overshadow Christmas. I'm taking the opportunity to re-evaluate what Christmas traditions we enjoy, and which ones we do out of a sense of obligation. It is very freeing, and I highly recommend it!

This is brilliant on so many levels, but mainly the dishwasher stuff. Spot on.

I apologise for my judgement - but why, really why, would you pay for someone to deliver a block of chocolate? THIS IS MADNESS PEOPLE

Thank you for being so open about a time that you weren't your best self. I hope you are kind to yourself for the mistakes you made during that incredibly difficult time. My sister opted for ECT, and it was a good choice in her circumstances (that's her view, as well as mine). Thank you for writing about this topic so candidly.

A beautifully written story about incredibly sad circumstances. Thank you for sharing your story.

So my twin brother forgot my birthday once and didn't buy me anything. He remembered it was his birthday, just forgot it was also mine. We were 16 - both pretty self-involved at that age tbh so it's something I like to tease him about rather than feel any ill will. But truly, how you forget your twin's birthday is something I'll never understand!!
