If you're lucky, you're reading this from some snowy cabin somewhere, fortunate enough to have taken all of Thanksgiving week off in the name of consuming maximum turkey. If you're not lucky, you're probably at work and dreaming of stuffing. This edition of pantylines goes out to my stuffing dreamers.

Here's what happened over the weekend:

  • Sexual harassment is rampant on NYC public transit. [NYT] Wait, you're saying women aren't all sluts asking to be poked and leered at by middle-aged men? Glad someone alerted the press.
  • A R.I. judge says gay couples can't be buried together. [DTMB via Feministe] Conservative fear of gayness extends into afterworld; forthcoming commentary from LGBT rights groups in Middle Earth, Mars and Narnia.
  • Manolo Blahnik says he creates his heels from scratch. [The Frisky] Other designers use computers. How can we ruin women's feet in the name of fashion? Let us count the ways.
  • Amanda Marcotte wonders why fewer mammograms are so bad. [Pandagon] Someone send this to Christopher Hitchens so he can learn what an actually interesting contrarian article reads like?
  • Should binge eating be considered a medical disorder? [Jezebel] Because apparently you only have a problem if you also puke like crazy after binging?
  • Professor Foxy gives good advice to a trans man seeking sexytime. [Feministing] I love this: "... your cunt and your fabulous manhood!"
