Dear Loud and Proud Members of Women Shaming Society,

A little bit of your disgusting is showing, check yourself.

Dear Loud and Proud Members of Women Shaming Society,
Chyanna Scherer.

Dear loud and proud members of women shaming society,

Ahh, summer. Tis the season of body shaming, victim blaming and "Eh, you probably shouldn't be wearing that maybe."

On behalf of the woman you think shouldn't be wearing "that" outfit let me start with 3 basic questions determining your ability to have an opinion on that matter-

Are you that woman?

Do you buy that woman's clothes?

Do you dress her for a living?

No?

Then you have lost your right to have an opinion on what that woman should wear and not be a total asshole in doing so.

I've said it before I'll say it again- you are revealing more about yourself in these comments than any outfit could ever reveal about a woman.

Secondly, if you find yourself talking about the recent stories of sexual harassment and assault or any story of these things and at any point you find a sentence of blame coming from your mouth not ending in "because the assailant is a rapist, sexual predator, monster" or some variation of that idea, just stop.

I don't care if the victim of a sexual crime was streaking butt naked across a field of 45 men on Viagra after she had 42 shots of tequila - aside from giving explicit consent- no human can do anything that warrants someone else putting their hands on them sexually, ever. Period. End of story. No debate.

Word of advice,

If you find yourself putting the blame on alcohol, clothing choices, previous hook ups, dancing, relationships or any other factor aside from a disgusting human doing an inexcusable act you are now victim blaming and a little bit of your disgusting is showing, check yourself.

You guys can do better than this.

Sincerely,

The "bigger" girl whose done with your shit.

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
