Disagree -- paints are made from pigments that are real-world things, that show many colors. Why would it be hard to get the color right from paints if you can see more colors? Probably tetrachromats are overrepresented in the paint-color-c

"don't have skin in the game" -- can you explain what you mean by saying that journalists don't have skin in the game of journalism? Your first paragraph says that content-based websites are easy even for poor people; yo

I feel like you're agreeing with the previous poster: "masculinity would be called into question throughout their life", and "far easier for femininity to coop[t] masculine concepts than the reverse." That's ex

I gotta say I don't get the article. The paragraph with the quote by Dakota Bracciale about witchcraft being practiced by people who were outliers -- may or may not be true. But how does this claim impunity for magical attacks, as the

Yep, like lonelappde says, it's so the buses can do * an hour-long route for high schoolers (6:30-7:30) then * 45 minutes for junior high (7:45-8:30) * potentially a last route for elementary (8:30-9)

My bus came at 6:27 am all of junior high and high school. Yeah, I was still valedictorian, but I sure as f(*7 brought a pillow with me and slept through the bus ride and sometimes first period.

In some countries, schools exist to teach students, rather than simply warehousing them and saying it's parents' fault for not teaching everything in the hours from 3 pm - 10 pm and weekends. Truly, your comment does reflect the a

A late reply, to be sure, but I was reminded to check back by the new article about RMS on the front page now. The point (in this discussion about talking about feelings with friends and supportive others) is not to discuss sex with underag

It serves some women, too. Moral Women can cement a higher place in the patriarchal society than Immoral Women and pass a lot of unpleasant tasks to them.

If you have the idea of the "independent entrepreneur", that adult woman who is proud to use sex as a creative expression, it's true that she's making her life better. If it's a scared 15-year-old whose mom kicked

Part of it, historically, is the "reproductive" part. Cooking food for you doesn't result in a pregnancy and a kid who then grows up with a mom who was by definition in the position to consider sex work the best choice. And i

The newer newer viewpoint is to support sex workers in self-determination and labor organizing. Edited to add that this is discussed explicitly in the article, as it mentions for instance the migrant sex worker collective Red Canary Song.

I think some of the articles recommend you find some good guys to talk to in a private setting, rather than posting things on your doorplate at a university, for instance. Talk with some good guy friends first if you think having sex with 1

Point of logic: it's a mainstream idea that there exists a type of masculinity that is toxic (strict subset) not that all masculinity is toxic.

It's worth noting that many institutions you would not have thought of as "men's colleges" per se were indeed all male -- Caltech didn't admit women as undergrads until 1970.

And docs honestly believe that the test will help. Many are not scamming you, they really want to know the result. The single most helpful question I have if you're deciding on whether to take or refuse a test is this: "How will k

There can be a lot of psychological pressure. "Don't you want to get to the bottom of this? If we don't figure it out now, this could come back and be worse." Or with a kid, "The responsible thing to do would be to

Before you get to neonatal biomes, you have the problem that BV can result in premature birth.... which has its own side effects.

Check out probiotic deoderants! I think "mother dirt" probiotic skin spray is the first one I learned of.

Your first paragraph is not quite accurate. The high iron levels that occur during menstruation tend to retard growth of some of the problematic flora (although this is more true of yeast infections).

There are some probiotic blends that focus on lactobacillus that some have found helpful. These can be used externally or internally. See papers like https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1198743X

The last WeWork I went into had a whole maze of frosted-glass areas in back. I was visiting a company doing some pretty fancy math with mortgage servicing rights, and they had some privacy.

I guess I don't agree with your idea that this is a reflection of the idea that it's a good thing to go after rich white people. The problem with analyzing college admissions to this point is that there's no one else to go af

I agree with you, overall. So why dance around it? In this country (the US), white people by law got to win more often than others. In India and China and other places other rules were in place. Every place has its rules, and in most, as yo

Omitting a job is not lying on a resume -- it's very common to prune your jobs to respect a one-page limit, and the resume is supposed to present what is relevant and persuasive to the hiring manager.

One significant factor is free or low-cost healthcare. Medical bankruptcy is the single largest type of bankruptcy in America, even among people with insurance, and bankruptcy can lead to homelessness. Untreated mental illness is also huge,

I don't think this is true. The sibling comment is about Freemasons, but you can join Toastmasters, the Rotary Club, and any number of other social & community groups with no negative consequences (and even positive ones!). What ar
