Obviously, our hearts go out to those teenagers out there who have been bullied for being different. Ultimately, high school sucks for most people and it doesn't help with the adults around these teens aren't helping.
Today, I read about two girls that were kicked out of high school for being gay. Their principal made the false assumption that their sexual orientation would debilitate them and prevent their success. Unfortunately, this isn't the first day I've started out annoyed and disgusted at educators. As a school official or a teacher, your job is to protect, enhance and teach students. Homosexuality is not a disease that needs to be cured!

OMG TEEN MOM
I'm sure not of you are surprised that I LOVE Teen Mom. I'm so glad they brought back the same girls and didn't follow the 16 & Pregnant Season 2 girls. I seriously worry about these girls. So here's my Season Premiere recap:
Farrah- So glad we get to see the mom beating drama. Sophia's cute as ever. Not that it's ever ok to hit your kid, but is anyone who watched last season surprised? Farrah is totally one of those people who will never believe that anything's her fault. And wow, Idaho must have cheap housing if her mom has two houses across the street from each other. We got to watch Farrah "parent" Sophia. Farrah, you don't need to fold anything. You need to feed your baby! Not that I'm a mom in any capacity, but I'm pretty sure you don't use the same tactics to train your baby as you do a puppy. I wish we could hear Sophia's thoughts. When Farrah's mom was fussing over her you wanted her to go all E-Trade baby and say something hilariously sarcastic about the situation. Also, incase you were worried, Farrah's still using her parents' first names when she addresses them.
Catelynn & Tyler- Tyler, why'd you say you're not ready to be engaged? I feel so badly for these two. I really hope these two are keeping up with their therapy. Tyler helped remind me that sometimes boys cry this episode. I can't imagine living with my high school boyfriend/fiancé. Crazy. Catelynn moves back home :(. So hard to do the best thing for your bf/fi and yourself when it involves living with her parents who are cuh-razy! I'm proud of Tyler for not being a pushover and actually asking for space, but it's a crappy situation for everyone. At least Spike's mullet is back.
Maci- OMG how cute is Bentley? Maci struggles to pay the bills and Ryan continues to be an a-hole. I'm glad she's back in a classroom and not doing the online classes this semester. We got a nice lesson in child support which I hope legitimately helps some of the real Teen Moms out there. Maci has to live with so much regret, it's awful. It's a nice lesson in not trusting boys in HS. So Ryan gets smacked with $230 a month in child support. Maybe that's a lot of money wherever they live, but really?
Amber- Maybe it was my screen, but she looked Orange. How are you affording to tan, dear? OMG pregnancy scare. Heat of the moment? Are you serious? Gary finally said something reasonable "It's out of the question to have another kid right now." Very good, Gary, very good. Having Amber make a face at the plastic cup about to hold her urine reminds me that you'd think there'd be a better way to do a pee test in 2010. What was up with the way the nurse's delivery of the pregnancy results. It was totally a Maury paternity test crossed with a Ryan Seacrest American Idol results. So glad she's not pregnant.
Next week's episode looks ridiculous. I love this show.

Farewell, Hills!
So this episode was like any other, just with more hype and more expensive commercials. You can't tell when they're more expensive? I can! Anyways, we're still on the Kristin/Brody break up. No wonder this show was canceled. Boring! Lo finally admitted her rules for moving in with a guy requires some bling. Thank you, Lo!
Then there's more of Stephanie's bad acting as she pursues her motorcross or whatever guy. Lame. Her acting coach needs to teach her to say "like" less. Also, I'm pretty sure you shouldn't call your prospective bf a carebear. Just saying.
I'm still annoyed with the way this season is so choppy and they cut from forced scene to forced scene. Moving on, do people still ask other out like they did in 7th grade? Maybe I've been off the market for too long, but I think at some point, we realized we were boyfriend/girlfriend. For the record, we weren't "facebook official" for a while due to my facebook rules that he forced me to break.
Am I supposed to really believe that Kristin is up and moving to Europe for real? Oh, maybe those tears are real. Why didn't Speidi crash this party again? I don't think Brody's entrance was dramatic enough for a finale. I thought Lo was going to get engaged for half a second, but I was relieved. And btw, Brody, the world isn't all about you. Kristin is leaving for Europe for the show, not because you're dating Avril Lavigne (why wasn't she shown?!).
And my favorite part of the episode: Natasha Bedingfield's slower version of "Unwritten". I think a lot of us forget she can really sing since she's a pop star. Followed by them full blown admitting that this is a sham and was filmed on a sound stage. If that was supposed to be the surprise twist finale ala Lost or ala Dallas, I'm appauled. It's not a surprise!
Goodbye, Hills. You will be missed..........until something just as craptacular comes along!

This Week's Hills episode
They should have titled this episode: Super painful date scenes with the Crew.
First we had a totally forced new boy for Stephanie (who I'm starting to hate less). She immediately went on a first date with this guy. It was super forced and awkward. It's scenes like these that have me convinced that the show is scripted and they couldn't find better actors. But, am I happy Stephanie can date someone sober? Yes.
Then we see Lo out celebrating her first anniversary with her bf we haven't seen before which leads me to believe they're actually dating. He asks her to move in with him but in a non-committal awkward way that seemed scripted. She obviously wanted to say "Fool, I'm not moving in with you until we're engaged AT LEAST" but she's not a cast member from Engaged and Underage, so obviously she was wishy washy.
So then Kristin and Brody finally talk about how she's missing him and he's a man-whore. That was painful. A lot of us have been there, in those relationships where you just can't quit each other. (See Sara Bareilles' Gravity) Sad.
Somehow Stephanie and Lo managed to discuss this whole thing in yoga class ala Sex & the City. I've never been to yoga with my gf's but I've never been able to gossip mid downward dog.
The best part of the episode was the whole Darlene, Holly and absent Heidi storyline. That would have made a good episode on its own.
One more episode of this show I can't seem to quit. It's totally my Brody.

Our thoughts on Lindsay Lohan
We're going to try a collaborative post here:
This is what TechVixen emailed out this morning:
So I saw a few quick clips of Lindsay in the courtroom and this is my personal version of what went down:
Judge (who's my hero of the day): So, we told you that you had to attend Alcohol education once a week or else you'd be violating your probation.
Lindsay: Yeah, but I have to work.
Judge: Are you aware that violating your probation can land you in jail?
Lindsay: Just regular people right?
Judge: So you expect me to believe that you've actually landed a job in the last six months that didn't involve making an appearance at a club
Lindsay: Um, yeah!
Judge: Alright, enough of your bs.
Lindsay: I did my best! (Legit quote)
Judge: Yeah, whatever, the world will be a better place if you're MIA for 6 months. To jail and rehab with you!!
TV and PV are seriously concerned that LiLo is aiming for early tragic death. We've been begging for a Papa Spears intervention ASAP.
LawVixen adds:
Probation is sort of the Judge's way of doing you a favor. He/she is saying "look, you earned this jail time for what you did, BUT you're young, you've got a great head of hair, and if you could get your life back on track you have a lot of potential. I'll give you the chance to do that". Violating probation is often not unexpected, but it's the courtroom version of an ANTM contestant telling Tyra that she's not really sure she wants to be there. The wrath from the Tyra is fierce. Lindsay Lohan's reported overconfidence that she would receive a "slap on the wrist" is not a good sign - DUI is a pretty serious offense and has actual consequences, even for movie stars.
Now I am - all three of the Vixens are - really big fans of Mean Girls, and I hope that Lindsay genuinely dedicates herself to recovery and is able to get her life and career back on track. While showing up for court this time looking healthier and like she's taking the court proceedings seriously was a big step in the right direction, ultimately the Court is going to require for her to take responsibility for her actions - which includes accepting her sentence with humility.
Now that I've gone there: don't you think Tyra should get her own court judgeship?!

Movie Thoughts: TiMER
So once again, the boy isn't home for dinner so I'm entertaining myself with a movie he wouldn't approve of. In fact, I better finish this one before he gets home to save me with air conditioning or I'm surely going to be made fun of. ANYWAY....
So this movie is available to Watch Instantly on Netflix. So it seems to take place in present time, but there are these devices that get embedded into your wrist (as soon as puberty) that count down until when you're going to meet your soul mate. Una, the protagonist, has a blank timer, meaning her "one" isn't on the TiMER system. The story follows them as Oona and her sister Steph meet people with or without TiMERs and see their point of view on finding their "one".
The creepiest part, is the TiMER store (why do they spell it that way?) looks eerily similar to the Apple Store and is staffed by the actress who always plays the obnoxiously peppy lady on tv shows.
The movie isn't great, but it leads you to think. Not to go all Carrie Bradshaw on y'all, but would you want to know? Would you "waste" your time sleeping around with people on the clock, or would you wait around for your one?
There were times in my life when I wondered what arranged marriage would be like, since I wouldn't have to deal with the whole dating nonsense. No break-ups or whatnot. But, what if your chosen one is completely unattractive or you have the worst first impression ever. I, for example, am very particular. I called myself vain and my boss corrected me and said I just have high standards. It sort of felt like the time my mom told me I was eclectic, not weird. Anyhoo....I don't mean to offend anyone, but I find hairlines really important and prefer a lack of body hair. I also like 'em tall and not fat. What if I met my "one" by accident during his fat phase before his Rogaine kicked in? I'd mess up EVERYTHING with my vanity.
My other main beef with this system, is that your setting for sexual preference seems to be set when you get your TiMER. So what if you don't know who you're into at 13? Does this mean there's no reason to experiment in college??
So what do you think? Would you want to know when you're going to meet "the one"?

I love/hate the Hills
So I don't really enjoy watching the Hills, but I can't stop. I at the very least need to read the episode summaries. I really appreciate the sarcastic tone most bloggers, even the MTV.com one, take with the series. Anyway, as most of you know, the show is on its final season.
So I've decided the following:
1) I hate how forced the dialog has become. I know it's scripted, but I don't need to be reminded.
2) I sort of miss the Heidi/Spencer drama, that was the best part of the train wreck.
3) I'm super jealous of the cast. Their lives consist of: fake working at awesome places, lunching, sitting around on couches gossiping, clubbing and my most favorite: taking impromptu vacations on a private jet.
I think I could totally whine about how Brody won't sleep with me and I'm not sure if my sister has been eaten by aliens if it meant I'd get shipped to Costa Rica to force interaction with a hot bartender the production crew lined up to make out with me in a bikini. Rough life.
I'm going to go back to eating my fruit roll-up at my desk at a company that doesn't have much celebrity appeal now...

Random Current Events Musings June 23rd
Disclaimer: I haven't fully researched any of these fun news facts, I'd just like to comment.
Botox freezes your emotions
I heard at the eye doctor that they had approved Botox for preventative maintenance so the idea of a 20 something getting Botox wasn't completely shocking to me, but I find it hilarious that Botox also makes you a Stepford Wife. Do we all forget it's poison injections? But, what I DON"T understand is how Heidi has enough emotion to divorce Spencer after all her Botox, but don't get me started on them.
Man Has Successful Double Hand Transplant
So this guy in Poland blew his hands off at some point and they successfully reattached two hands, that belonged to a female donor. It's like reverse Man Hands! Yay for medical technology though, apparently his fingers move and everything.
Obama fired the chief Army guy in Afghanistan
I heard he ran his mouth in Rolling Stone and Obama called him home because he was pissed. I just like that Obama is willing to fire big effing deal kind of guys. Sometimes the only thing that will help, is a big shake up.
The Naked Cowboy is mad at Naked Cowgirl
Nothing really to say there.

How We Met: Part II
I (PsychVixen) first met LawVixen in college. We lived one floor apart, and it was friendship at first sight. Over the course of our collegiate years we (along with our cracker jack group of friends) saw each other through break-ups, melt-downs, and existential crises of every form and fashion. Two years after graduation, I followed in her footsteps down to our nation’s capital when she offered free housing while I job-hunted.
I first met TechVixen in college as well, when she came to visit LawVixen. Although we hit it off right away, our friendship didn’t really blossom until after graduation. At some point, LawVixen got tired of Gchatting the same stories to both of us, and looped us into group Gchats on a regular basis. Behold the power of Gchat. We’ve been in constant communication ever since.
As TechVixen mentioned, we so enjoy our witty repartee with each other we’re putting it on the internet. Although this blog is ostensibly about psychology, business, law and reality shows, we hope it proves to be about so much more… everything from current events, personal experiences, politics, faith, sexuality and anything else this little triumvirate of vixens can think of!

How We Met: Part I
Feel free to sing "Memories" from Cats in your head as you read.
Along time ago, in 1997, TechVixen (me) and LawVixen were assigned to the same homeroom for 8th grade. We soon became fast BFF's and bonded over their ability to talk about the Knicks with the boys before morning announcements. We were striving to break the gender barriers even then! We remained friends throughout high school have been known to randomly reference the morning after senior prom on occasion.
We continued to be close friends throughout college despite the 2 hour(ish) driving distance. While LawVixen was at Smith, she met PsychVixen. I'll let them elaborate on that.
After college, we began our hot and heavy email relationship that involves occasion in person interaction (more often for LV and PV). We email each other about things as important to dates/relationship drama to Real Housewives. One day we decided we were witty enough to share ourselves with the world and here you have it.
