fetishes
I’ve been photographed in 13 countries and four states, tied up everywhere from stunning church ruins to secret underground dungeons below country mansions and have stomped down catwalks in just about every kind of outfit imaginable.
travel
A routine check up at the OB/GYN could not be that complicated, I reasoned. Besides, nowhere in the United States does a specialist visit cost $16.

The very fact this question occurs to me is a sign of just how skewed the thinking is on mental illness in this country: my mind is framing it, even if unintentionally, as a personal weakness
mother
I never thought I would succumb to the motherhood comparison game. But in the end, I was wrong. I did judge myself harshly. But it wasn’t against other moms. It was against my own husband.

I asked one of the women if she, as a heterosexual person, was attracted to every man she saw. Of course she said no.
first world problems
I've started seeing #firstworldproblems cropping up a lot more when women were talking about all those things that get labeled “women’s issues.”
pickup artists

I’m still struggling to accept that I’m truly bisexual, not gay.

I would like to state for the record here that I believe engagement stories are never that interesting to anyone other than your parents and maybe your very best friend.

I am a dude who is straight and cisgender (that is, someone whose gender identity matches their biology) and who seems to have no stake in this fight. Here’s why I take transgender issues personally.

I wish and hope and pray that my son won’t grow up to be a rapist.

You hate your job, but aren’t even looking for a new one? You want to meet men, but refuse to join an online dating site? You’re upset with your weight, but won’t change your diet and exercise? I can’t help you. Only you can.

Let's celebrate this very small victory with a selection of eight classy, subtle products, from bougie candles to a soothing body cream, that are either made from or inspired by Cannabis sativa.

I began to ask some existential questions like, “How do women wear these things and not fall down the subway steps and kill themselves?”

I am that asshole I used to make fun of people going to Home Depot on Sundays and cooing over glossy paint. It used to seem so, so dorky to do stuff like that.

I don’t know when I learned it, but somewhere along the way to 26, I had very deeply, very seriously internalized the idea that after I got prettier, things would be better.
