Down syndrome is actually pretty awesome. Until my 2year was born, I'd never really had any experience with anyone with disabilities. Now, Im amazed at my own ignorance before she became mine.

This movie is one of the main reasons my 5 year old is obsessed with space and becoming an astronaut.

My ex husband was abusive. He resents our daughter who was born disabled. He's chosen not to pay child support or spend time with his children. I know firsthand how destructive a misogynist can be. But I still refrain from blaming men for his actions. Bein male is not why my ex treats myself and his daughters poorly. He does it because he is selfish and narcissistic.
I've met far more men that were great people then were jerks. I feel it's unfair to place the blame on those that are good, simply because they are also male.
If we want change, if we want the world to be safer and better for all women, we need men to help. We can not change the world by fighting against men, we need men and women to support each other to enact the change we all need for a better society.

No, you just look at women as liars. You see men as better then women. You have made sweeping allegations based on nothing but a superiority complex. The first wrong assumption being that women wear make up an high shoes to lie. When women wear it because we like it, andost really don't care what men think of how we dress or if we wear makeup or not. Women do not exist to appeal to you. If you think make up and high heels are a lie, ok. Then go date someone who doesn't wear any make up. But don't think calling half the people on the planet liars is going to go over well. Both men and women can be liars. You just think male lies are justified, while female ones are not.

Isn't that the same logic as a women wearing make up because some men want a trophy to show off to others?

"Not all men are jerks but all women are treated poorly by men." I have to say, feminazi, I don't agree. It's not a women vs men problem. It's a jackass vs good people problem. Jackasses will use whatever they can to stand on others, and to defend themselves and their selfish actions. Misogyny, racial predjudices, homophobia, and even religious hatred, all come from te same ideology that some people are "better" then others. And these jackasses believe that they really are better. Which is why they fight so hard to keep things the same, to keep their "status" above others. Men are not the problem, jackasses are. So don't assign all men as the problem when there are women who are also jackasses.

Not only was that extraordinarily incorrect, it was really mysogunistic. You just claimed that men look at women as stubborn, that we "shut down" instead of improving ourselves, and that women are immature and don't ever mature beyond 18.
You just said more about who you are then I think you want the world to see of you.
If you can't treat others with respect, you don't deserve it. You sir, are a mysogunistic ass.

Sounds about right. We hijacked Anglo-Saxen spring fertility festivals for Easter. We kind of have a history of this type of thing.

Oops, thank you. I feel like my spell check might have it out for me, it does that a lot. Sadly, I've never been a particularly good speller.

Yes. Because formula is not vegan, some vegan parents choose to not use it, health and nutrition only become an issue when ideals are placed above what's best for a child. Using formula would negate any worry of nutritional problems for both a breastfed baby who's mother is vegan, and one who is unable or chooses not to. It's a really good option for any mother, even mothers who have a vegetarian or omnivore diet and breastfeed. Not everyone is able to breastfeed or can produce enough to feed their child.

No it's not. You've taken credible information and extrapolated the data to serve your own conclusions. That's not how science works. You can not cherry pick fact and reasoning to create an argument. You have to use all the data, and all the results, or else you wind up with what you have presented here; misinformation and conclusions not supported by what sources you've presented. Your basic lack of knowledge about influenza, vaccines, and how viruses work in the body, shows that you're not nearly as knowldeable as you would want us all to believe.

No respectable doctor or medical facility should ever recommend not vaccinating. I'd be interested in their credentials, and what sources you're using for you're misinformation.

And actually, once you get vaccinated, you can not get that disease. That's the point. People still get the flu when they get vaccinated because the type of vaccine the flu uses is dead, and can degrade, as well as there are literally thousands of strains of influenza A and B. The vaccines they administer every year protect agains the 3 strains that the CDC and WHO see as being the most likely to be widespread, bases off of their research.

We don't vaccinate against small pox anymore because it has been iradicated. But most have not. Even in 1st world countries, very deadly viruses are still present, just in significantly smaller numbers. If natural immunity were possible by letting kids eat dirt, we wouldn't need vaccines. Letting kids get dirty helps develop immunity to allergens, and bacteria, but viruses act very differently. Which is why the medical community treats them differently.

I'm honestly not sure anymore if posts like these are simply jokes, or are really just passive aggresive rants.

My older sister, an electrical engineer, found out about a year ago that she was the lowest paid person in her area. Even though she had been there for years more then many coworkers, even though her credentials were superior to many coworkers, and even though she was above many of those coworkers. Her manager tried to get her a raise to equal it out. It was denied because the requested raise was for a 25% increase in her salary, to reflect what her male colleagues made. It was denied because, even though she deserved it, and her boss agreed that she did, they had a policy to deny all raises over 5%. Tell me again that there isn't a wage gap.

A lot of trade work has actually gone up in salary because so few people go into it now.
