[Mother proudly teaches her five daughters that 'virginity doesn't exist' and it makes total sense]( The concept of virginity is a very loaded issue in American culture. If a woman loses hers when she's too young she can be slut-shamed. If a man remains a virgin for too long, he can be bullied for not being manly enough. There is also a whole slew of religious mind games associated with virginity that can give people some serious psychological problems associated with sex. Losing one's virginity has also been blown up way beyond proportion. It's often believed that it's a magical experienceâit's usually not. Or that after having sex for the first time people can really start to enjoy living lifeânot the case. What if we just dropped all of the stigmas surrounding virginity and instead, replaced them with healthy attitudes toward sex and relationships? Writer Cayce LaCorte is going viral on TikTok for the simple way she's taught her five daughters to think about virginity. They don't have to. LaCorte shared her parenting ideas on TikTok in response to mom-influencer Nevada Shareef's question: "Name something about the way you raised your kids that people think is weird but you think is healthy."

[Don't know what 'daddy privilege' is? One mom explains it all in a hilarious takedown.]( Chloe Sextonâbaker, business owner, motherâknows all too well about "daddy privilege," that is, when men receive exorbitant amounts of praise for doing normal parental duties. You know, the ones that moms do without so much as a thank you. In a lighthearted (while nonetheless biting) TikTok video, Chloe shares a "fun little story about 'daddy privilege'" that has now gone viralâno doubt due in part because working moms can relate to this on a deep, personal and infuriating level. Chloe's TED Talks-worthy rant begins with: "My husband has a job. I have a business, my husband has a job. Could not make that any clearer, right? Well, my bakery requires that we buy certain wholesale ingredients at this place called Restaurant Depot every week. You've seen me do videos of it before where I'm, like, wearing him or was massively pregnant buying 400 pounds of flour and 100 pounds of butter, and that's a weekly thing. The list goes on and on, like â it's a lot." [Read the Story](
[A group of Broadway greats sang a triumphant tribute to Stephen Sondheim in Times Square]( Success is measured not by a list of our accomplishments, but by a legacy of people inspired by our passion. This past Sunday (November 28), Broadway royalty gathered together in Times Square to pay tribute to Stephen Sondheim, the composer and lyricist who created legendary works for six decades, and whose name is practically synonymous with musical theatre. The tribute came after his passing on Friday. The entertainers sung âSundayâ from âSunday in the Park With George.â Some think that Sondheim wrote a fictionalized story about George Seuratâs famous painting A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte, but it would be more accurate to say that he captured the essence of an artistâs inner battle between pure passion and toxic obsession, and simply set it to music. Such was Sondheimâs talent for encapsulating the human condition into breathtaking lyrics and dynamic composition.
