The Cost of Being Stubborn
We all have times in our lives when we are stubborn. This is very normal. I used to be a very stubborn person, but gradually, I decided to rethink my attitudes and see if they really fit the issue or situation and if they were valid for me as a person.

God Bless These Hookers
I saw a hooker on the train. She entered the cab with her tiddies out and quickly tucked them back in. That's how I noticed her. I'm sure it was a business tactic and it seemed to work--for a time. It worked right up until she began to nod off into what looked like a drug induced trance.

Nudity and Tattoos
Growing up in the Soviet Union, until I turned 17, the three of us – my mom, me and my younger sister – lived in what was called “institutional housing” provided by soviet institutions to their employees. It meant that you could live in it only for as long as you work for the institution. My father was a police officer who got our institutional one-bedroom apartment and when he walked out on my mother, she had to quit her beloved job of a dressmaker and work for the police, not to lose the housing. She had worked at their telecom center until she retired in 2002.

My Partner Has PCOS - What Should I Do?
It's hard having PCOS, so I can only imagine it's hard to be with someone with PCOS. I say this as a woman with (polycystic ovarian syndrome) PCOS and who also has a loving supportive partner that I am constantly apologizing to for my moods. If you are in a relationship with a woman who says that she has PCOS, it helps to know what that exactly means. Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome has been known to affect relationships, the woman's self-esteem, and thus ultimately her confidence in even her partners.

family hatred
The Johnson family was famous in Cedarville, but not for the usual reasons like wealth or power. No, the Johnsons were known for their legendary family feuds. The story of their hatred had become something of a local legend, passed down through generations with the same relish as old ghost stories.

While it is a celebratory year as this year is marked as a renewal of the cherish of romantic comedies with movies like Anyone But You, Idea of You, Players and many more, Netflix's most recent romantic comedy released in the week of Mother’s day, The Mother of the Bride tries to sell the second chance romance in the exotic location of Phuket, Thailand, yet its formulaic plot and half baked characteristic execution makes it dull and cliched. Let's dive deeper into the nuances of the plot.
