Note from the blogkeeper: Today's post by Jennifer Drake is in response to yesterday's post by Bill Albert. Do you have a reaction to what Bill said? To Jennifer's rebuttal? Let's hear what you have to say!

So is it the flippancy with which Jenna seems to answer the question about marriage, or our judgment about women and men in this industry that troubles us the most?

I ask because we typically don't hear the same opinions about the Jolie-Pitt family, which is now up to six kids... and zero wedding rings. Perhaps it's our perception that this is a healthy, wealthy (!) family with two successful, financially stable, and responsible parents. Criticism of Ms. Jameson's career choice aside, she has no doubt made a living for herself and carved out her own place in pop culture, much like "Brangelina." She's not married, but her child's father is one of the most successful MMA fighters in the business today. Chances are they're not struggling financially.

This is a thirty-something woman with a couple of marriages and even more life experiences under her belt, who according to some accounts may have badly wanted this pregnancy. Should her (former?) career/reputation automatically exclude her from the possibility of raising a kid, and all of the warm fuzzies that come along with having your own family? Or her marital status for that matter, when to our knowledge she has a supportive partner? As my dad likes to put it, "We all got issues," so I wouldn't count her to be any less ready to be a parent than Angelina "I-wear-a-vial-of-my-husband's-blood-around my-neck" Jolie. I'm just sayin'.

And perhaps we could have found a picture of Jenna that is less...well, just less. Tito Ortiz is much better looking anyway :)
