In “Baby Reindeer,” Gadd’s stalker is portrayed as unattractive and mentally ill — someone whom her victim actually feels sorry for. “Baby Reindeer,” rated TV-MA by Netflix for “language, nudity, sex, sexual violence, substances,” only has a viewer discretionary warning before “Episode 4” wherein Gadd’s character is sexually assaulted. Information is also available on sexual assault, sexual violence and relationship abuse. Neither Netflix nor the “You” and “Baby Reindeer” teams responded to CNN’s requests for comment. Fleitman hopes “Baby Reindeer” can raise awareness for stalking victims, like men and so-called “imperfect victims” whose stories may not look like the ones we’re used to seeing.

In November 2023, she died, and I can't shake the guilt I feel for moving away.

In honor of the real Groundhog Day, you can choose to watch the original time-loop film, 1993's "Groundhog Day." Bill Murray in "Groundhog Day." "Groundhog Day" has prompted much discussion over the years, including how long Phil was stuck inside the time loop (guesses range from a few weeks to "a lifetime"), and if the movie is a religious allegory. We can't say for sure, but we can say that "Groundhog Day" is a stone-cold classic. "Groundhog Day" is streaming with AMC+.

PARIS (AP) — An air of surrealism enveloped Chanel’s Spring Couture show Tuesday as celebrity guests including Naomi Campbell and Kendrick Lamar faced a navigational challenge: walking past a towering pair of open metal scissors. Here are some highlights of Tuesday’s spring couture shows:BUTTONS AND BALLETThe button is a humble icon, but it was not always so. Viard used the button-jewels as a spice for the drama of the ballet stage, scattering them across contrasting and often segmented silhouettes. The house was keenly aware of its history: 2024 marks a century since Coco Chanel first ventured into ballet design. In a world that often seeks the innovative, Mabille reminds us of the enduring allure of classic couture.

☆ This One-Piece Is the ‘Mom’ Swimsuit of My Dreams
▼ + stars: | 2023-04-26 | by ( ) www.wsj.com time to read: +4 min

At my sister’s prompting, I tried a suit from Boden, but the fit was off. Unlike a lot of one-piece swimsuits I’ve worn, I never find myself tugging down the bottom or pulling up the straps. The Tulum suit also kept its elasticity and shape for far longer than my old bathing suits. I’m not the only one who loves The Tulum: I’ve received many compliments from other moms who I imagine admire not just the suit, but my obvious comfort in it. Its popularity is also reflected by the fact that I’ve noticed that The Tulum often sells out during peak swimsuit season.

☆ As accomplished, high-profile female leaders step back from their careers, I wonder whether any woman can have it all

I don't fault them; they're women who achieved much and then, it appears, made the best decision for themselves. Women face bias when they're leaders. McKinsey & Company recently said it found that "compared with men, senior women leaders report higher rates of burnout, chronic stress, and exhaustion." A report last year from LeanIn.org and McKinsey said women leaders were leaving their companies at the highest rate ever; the organizations started tracking the data in 2015. "You're not promoting enough women into the leadership ranks, and now you have more women leaving leadership roles," Thomas told CNBC Make It in October.

Prezervativul este cea mai bună și sigură metodă de contracepție și de prevenire a bolilor cu transmitere sexuală. Este și cea mai accesibilă, prețul unui prezervativ pe piața din Republica Moldova variind între 5 și 15 lei. Deși există mai multe tipuri de prezervative, cele mai populare și mai răspândite sunt cele din latex. Acestea conțin și latex sintetic pentru a putea obține prezervative mai subțiri și mai elastice, și sunt acoperite cu lubrifianți – ambele făcând descompunerea și mai anevoioasă. Desigur, producția materiei prime și a prezervativelor, precum și distribuția acestora, au un impact major asupra mediului, iar creșterea arborilor de cauciuc este asociată cu despăduririle.
