Food fad fetishists have truly lost the plot The art of eating is being lost thanks to a growing army of health nuts and food police.
If we are what we eat, great swathes of the population are fast becoming a herd of crashing bores. Dining has, in recent years, changed course. Eating together was once a uniting social occasion. It now takes the form of cosmopolitan congregations of what would once have been considered eating disorders. I was recently invited to a “Vegan Feast” – a blinding oxymoron if ever there was one. Yet such events are increasingly commonplace. Friends gather, hungry, and nibble at an array of superfoods, antioxidants and obscure grains that promise to hold the secret to eternal youth – now described as “wellness” or “clean living.” More ingredients are verboten than…

On travel safety and white privilege (and why they’re basically the same thing) Feeling safe is a privilege granted to me because I’m white, middle class, non-disabled and straight.
I recently received a comment on one of my solo camping posts asking me if I ever feel unsafe while I’m camping alone. This is probably the number one question I get asked by family members and friends and blog readers when I talk about going solo camping. They don’t care about the tent I use. (Until recently, my tent was a clown-colored hand-me-down with leaky seems.) Or if I have any tips on how to cook over a fire. (Don’t! Just go to a restaurant! Buy a huge pizza! And eat the leftovers for all your remaining meals!) They don’t even ask me how to make a fire. (Fire…

How ‘Catastrophe’ revolutionized the rom-com Raunchy and hilarious, the show extracts laughs from sexual harassment, breast-pumping, a dead dog, and overdoses.
Everyone knows how the rom-com formula works. Boy meets girl, they don’t get on, they fall head over heels, adversity strikes, they live happily ever after. If you’re watching Catastrophe – and why wouldn’t you be? It’s the best, most brutally funny, comedy to come out of the UK or US in years – things run a little differently. Namely: boy meets girl in a bar, they have a one-week stand, have frantic sex in stairwells, girl gets pregnant, they decide to stay together – this is all five minutes into the first episode, by the way – argue, suffer quite a lot, and have a blazing row on their…

He regretted sex with a fat girl, so WSU found Rose guilty of rape Rose's life has been devastated by a complaint made after her partner was teased about fooling around with a big girl.
Buzzfeed has a long article on the plight of a young woman identified only by her middle name, Rose, who was expelled from Washington State University after the school’s Office of Equal Opportunity (OEO) concluded that she had subjected a male student to “unwanted, nonconsensual sexual contact” and was “a danger” to other students. Documents published by Buzzfeed show that on a night in January 2014, when Rose was midway through her freshman year at WSU, she joined the complainant and several friends of his in drinking games a lounge at the dorm. After a while, Rose and her “victim” went back to her room and started kissing. Rose asked…

Melbourne U limiting academic appointments to women is a disaster—for women It’s going to do exactly the opposite of what they hope for.
In an effort to promote the tired, stale and just plain wrong idea that women and men are equally capable of, and equally interested in university level mathematics and statistics, Melbourne University in Australia has limited three academic appointments to women applicants only. The head of the School of Mathematics and Statistics, Professor Aleks Owczarek, said the decision had been taken to promote change. “We clearly have an issue with attracting female applicants appropriately to our workforce,” Professor Owczarek said. “So this is an agenda to attempt to address that.” It’s going to do exactly the opposite of what they hope for. See, here’s the thing: in every occupational category,…

After 50 years of communism, Cuba finally gets the Kardashians The Kardashians are among America's first ambassadors to Cuba after thawed relations.
American relations with Cuba are only recently thawed, but our latest ambassadors to the Castro-run island nation might cause Cuba to rethink their new alliance. Thanks to the State Department, the Kardashians—Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, Kanye and their offspring—are among Cuba’s first vacationers. Hasn’t that country endured enough? The reality television family took a tour of Havana on their first official day, visited the Museum of Rum, and dined at a state-approved restaurant. Although the family is notoriously fashion crazy, they did not ditch Havana’s main drags—which lack in good shopping thanks to the ongoing trade embargo—for Chanel’s Cruise 2017 fashion show, also on the island. The family, who being Armenian should be familiar with the…

The rise of the brocialite Honies with money — and the boys who love them.

In the past six months, Huebl’s hectic social schedule has included going to several parties during New York Fashion Week, a bash thrown by the NFL, a Tommy Hilfiger-hosted dinner in London and movie premieres for films ranging from quirky Brit comedy “Eddie the Eagle” to veteran auteur Terrence Malick’s “Knight of the Cups”.

What it’s like loving someone with anxiety Loving someone with anxiety has been one of the most educational experiences I’ve ever had.
Before meeting my current boyfriend, I had never been close to someone with anxiety. I never really knew much about the disorder and to be completely honest, I passed it up as people being over dramatic about things and creating a problem simply to have a problem. After starting to love someone who has anxiety, I realized that it’s a real issue. Loving someone with anxiety has been one of the most educational experiences I’ve ever had. Yes, I’ve learned a lot about mental disorders and illnesses, but I’ve also learned a lot about myself. Let me just start off by saying that being in love with someone who has…
