This should not be happening in 2024. He equivalent would be a liquid paper colour for white skin. 

@mjte it makes me sad when I read  people explaining away the PM exercising his dominance over a woman. Isn’t male dominance the root of the problem l? Now I don’t know her politics but if she is able to gather 100000 people on an issue why should we pick apart whether she is for labour or liberal? I think you should check your own comments for political bias. 

I have mixed feeling about this issue. I think that rolling up shorts etc is not about practicality but about fashion trends. Schools could handle it better but some parents could too. It appears to be about girls but this is because boys don’t feel as much pressure to flaunt their skin. I imagine that they would the same reaction if they were walking around with their shirt buttons undone showing their pecs and sleeves rolled up etc. 

@laura__palmer I understand the sentiment but as a teenager I hated pants. I was chubby, had a big but and pants made me look like a middle aged US tourist in Bermuda shorts. There is nothing wrong with dresses. I used to wear thin bike shorts underneath and was comfortable and much happier.

@efffsteele this is a very biased opinion I had 4 children privately with no trauma fortunately. My BFF had 3 publically with multi day labours and Caesareans refused despite knowing that she had trouble in prior labours and no pain relief given apart from gas despite asking for it. Sometimes a traumatic birth can be due to hospital sometimes  it can just be circumstances but I would not write off public or private completely based on what you have stated.

@anonymous you can’t talk yourself out of schizophrenia. Therapy may help, but talk therapy is not going to stop a psychotic episode. 

@snorks it is a shame that she did not get a rape kit done or keep the dress for DNA samples. However I am with the judge on this one. When you see the evidence he refers to it is more likely that he took her back there to have sex with her rather than to annotate speaker notes. What happened after the media has to take some blame. They were so hungry for a political coverup that they ran with it irrespective of the consequences for Brittany and anyone else. 

@anonymous we need to keep the community safe first. Trauma can be processed while on medication. In fact i think that it is impossible to treat trauma while experiencing psychosis. 

I was glad for the result. However I think that the judges comments regarding a coverup were pertinent too. 

I really wish the media would leave his parents alone. I am someone with an immediate family member that has the same illness. Linking family members to the actions of an adult is not appropriate. 

@laura__palmer I use cards and phone for most payments. However I use cash if there is a surcharge. I started doing this when I added up my annual surcharge amount and it was over $1000. I also find that I am more mindful when using cash. 

@gu3st talking to kids and that’s what they are about situation appropriate clothing should. not be considered body shaming.

The clothes someone wears doesn’t make them any less of a target and you can still get sexual comments no matter what you wear as I know from personal experience. I believe in the right clothes for the situation. For me at work, church or professional and educational situations I don’t wear clothes that show skin. I’m happy to have it on display in the evening and on the beach. Each to their own for adults. I’m a bit different with my kids. While they are under 18 I am not supportive of g string bathers and things like that. Over 18 it’s their body, their choice. 

I don’t know what to make of this. What he did was wrong. She is now benefiting from this but it is strange. 

The cons are valid with the exception of the sibling not getting enough attention.  This would not do them any harm. I have 4 kids and any sacrifice of attention is a long term investment in a sibling bond. However there is nothing wrong with having just one child. If that is your path in life. 

 I think  that posting a photo being on holiday with the caption about being child free is inviting comments and a bit of click bait. I travel with my kids who are seasoned travellers. Do I post a photo of all of us with a caption stating ‘fulfilled life full of travel with my family’?  Of course not as that would be inviting cyber outrage at my privilege and rubbing people’s nose in my lifestyle. My husband and I take turns to travel alone for our own interests and so have I have no envy.  My mantra is ‘you do you’. However if you brag about your situation then don’t be faux outraged at people’s outrage. 

I’m Gen x. I reckon millennials look great for the most part due to less smoking and healthier living. Botox and things like that play a part. However doing it too early is aging. 

The other women mentioned are the stereotypical cool girl that has always been popular. The internet is toxic and it is sad that Anne was hated on for being earnest. It’s jealousy. Do these haters actually think that those other women don’t work hard? Of course they do.  

Thank you for sharing. However I do not think that a child has a place at a psychiatric nursing home.  Nothing positive would come from a visit. 

This article appears to be using the royal We.  Some of Us actually had a bit of heart and felt that if an individual said leave me alone until after Easter that We should respect that. Perhaps is it Us she is thanking.
