    What's with all the sour comments about SJP? Basically she's saying she's in love with her babies. Good for her. #sarahjessicaparker

    @BlondeGoddess: But she's saying it in a kinda gross way. I think that's why. I think it's gross to smell a wet diaper like a "baked good", whether or love your children or not. It's pee, not perfume! :) #sarahjessicaparker

    So that's what happened to Freddie Prinze Jr.

    Also, SMG? Listen. There are lots of "selfless" things a person can do. One can volunteer their time to helping others, advocating for a worthy cause, donating money to charity, or choosing to live in a socially-aware way. Having a child can also be one of them. Seriously, I'm glad you're happy, I wish you lots of happiness and love and all that good stuff, but having a baby =/= selfless. Having a baby = having a baby. Lots of people have kids and don't become selfless.

    I shouldn't even post this comment - it feels really mean and self-centered, but it just pisses me off when people have kids, and then tell me how awesome they are for it. People donate time, love and goodness in all sorts of ways. You don't have to be a parent to be selfless, and you don't have to be selfless to be a parent. #sarahjessicaparker

    @boxspelunker: I believe you do have to be selfless, in some ways, to have a kid and raise it. But on the other hand, in some ways, you have to be selfish. So yah, in this overpopulated world of ours, I am not going to praise the choice to have children.

    I love SMG but that comment bothered me. Even just the idea of her saying that people aren't capable of being good parents in their 20's. You might have not have been but others are capable of that - we all grow at different rates. #sarahjessicaparker

    @boxspelunker: Yes! And some people make very good, selfless parents even when they're in their twenties! If you're the kind of person who steps up to the plate you'll probably do it just as well in your twenties as in your thirties or beyond.

    Good for her, she's happy with the choices she made. That's really wonderful. But I wish she didn't have to imply that people making different choices aren't as perfect as her. #sarahjessicaparker

    @Elaken: I agree with your second point, I had a kid in my 20's and one in my 30's and yes, people do grow at different rates. People who want kids should have them when they're ready. I know many people in their late 30's, early 40's and they will never be ready and I know some parents in their 20's who are doing just fine. #sarahjessicaparker

    @Elaken: I can't bear it when people who have been parents for all of, ooh, five minutes, start sharing their 'wisdom' with the world. I'm glad they're happy but, seriously, they know fuck-all.

    As for the age thing... I've been a young mother and an older mother - had my first kid in my early 20s and my last kid in my late 30s. There are pros and cons to both, and a good parent works with what they've got. Yeah, I was more patient as an older mother but I had a lot more energy as a younger mother. I'm more stable now, I was more adventurous then. Different, not better. #sarahjessicaparker

    @Elaken: I think to be a good parent, a certain amount of selflessness and selfishness is needed (in the appropriate amounts and times, of course!). But the act of being a parent alone is not selflessness nor does it necessarily create selflessness. That's really what I take issue with. I know lots of kindof crappy parents, who talk big talk about how magical, wonderful and selfless being a parent is, when they are unwilling to make very many sacrifices for their child. Maybe that's why it burns my butt so much? :)

    @AnotherJenn: This is also true! Some 2o-somethings are great parents. I just didn't like how condescending it sounded, I guess.

    @metalkate: In a way, having a baby is completely unmiraculous - it happens every day, around the world, it is needed for the continuation of the species, etc., etc. I know when it happens on a micro level, it's totally different, but I hate it when parents act like they are the only ones ever who have experienced such a thing. It's like, on a macro level, this is nothing. Don't start lecturing people just yet. :) #sarahjessicaparker

    Dysfunction and/or splits in gay relationships always leave me feeling very conflicted and distressed.

    Growing up in the LGBT community (because of my lesbian mother), I always felt like there was this unspoken pressure to always put on the best front for any aspect of relationships, family, and behaviour, as if any conflict within your personal interactions and actions could cast shame on the gay community as a whole. Rarely did anyone say explicitly to my mother, "If you air your drama with your girlfriend to the public, you are doing your peers a disservice", but I could see she felt like she had to keep any 'negative' emotions to herself, lest she be responsible for someone thinking poorly of homosexuals overall.

    In a similar vein, I was never comfortable talking about problems at home, because I felt as if there would be immediate judgment--well, no wonder your child is doing poorly in school...look at the home she's being reared in.

    It's stupid. I KNOW it's stupid, in part of my brain. It boils down to my own selfishness, really--I don't want to have to defend the LGBT community from pinheads. But the same cultural meme that makes it known that same-sex PDA is unacceptable, even when heterosexual public affection isn't, and a delinquent child is caused by being raised by homosexual men, not because those men are just lousy parents overall, is the same one that makes me wince when I see a story like Rosie and her wife's. I want them to work it out, selfishly, so I don't have to deal with anyone's I told you so's. #rosieodonnell

    @Cafezinha: I, too was raised in an LGBT household, and instead of even giving us a chance to share our family experience, and things my sister and I did (which was to speak up and be generally sassy) was punished with a peer saying, "watch it, or you'll end up like your mother." It's a hard life, sometimes, but well worth the love and and affection that parents who really love each other can give. #rosieodonnell

    @Cafezinha: This really struck a chord with me, thank you for sharing. Writers like Jan Moir (look up the article she wrote for the Daily Mail last week) offer good reason for this "false front" portrayed by LGBT people & their families facing problems. A gay celebrity can't even die of natural causes without highly speculative BS being extrapolated onto the entire LGBT community, so I guess this has become an ingrained cultural response to homophobic analysis in mainstream media. #rosieodonnell

    @Cafezinha: Oh, I totally understand. I'm gay, and I do feel tremendous pressure to have a really super healthy relationship with my girl. But the truth is that we fight, and bicker, and are occasionally petty with each other. Just like everyone else, I imagine.

    But even my (well meaning) friends say things like "Oh, you guys are so cute. You're the perfect couple!". Which is totally sweet, but not accurate, of course. We're just humans. And we love each other, and I hope we're together forever, but what if we aren't?

    I do worry about perceptions. Plus, of course my parents think this is "just a phase" so I'm determined to prove them wrong too. Instead of, you know, just living my life. #rosieodonnell

    Anyone else want NOW to STFU about the David Letterman stuff? Nothing has been proven yet, except that Letterman likes to have sex with young women. Equating that automatically with a "toxic work environment" strips these women of any agency--or any possibility they wanted to sleep with him. After all, no one has said he raped them and none have come forward to stay he sexually harassed them. I think Dave is a dirty dog, but hell, there are PLENTY of those in this world. #rosieodonnell

    @quickqueenof: Sometimes I don't understand NOW. It seems like they often pick and choose smaller, specific situations and make an example out of them. This is fine by me if they use the situation to expose a problem to which a good deal of people are unaware, but if it distracts the public from much larger issues, I find fault. Somehow "TV personality has intercourse with younger colleagues" doesn't outweigh abortion rights, violence against women, constitutional equality, promoting diversity, gay rights, and economic justice. #rosieodonnell
