It could have been something they'd discussed at least once over the course of their relationship. I know I mentioned to my husband, more than once, that a big public spectacle like this would embarrass the hell out of me. I think I went on a big ole rant after watching that surprise Disneyland dance number proposal…

I do have to echo tallgirl and say that my dress fit perfectly right off the rack. Zero alterations. BUT the woman on GMA does have a far curvier figure than mine (I have almost zero boobage) so I'd assume it'd be a bit harder to find a dress off the rack for her.

If you're not so into girls in the first place, it's not like Natalie Portman is going to change all that. Add that to the wooden dialogue and an incredibly inept, lazy director too focused on his ideas for what he will CG into the background next and you have a recipe for complete lack of emoting.

This is how I feel about the Notebook. I find the romance when they're young to be boring, forced, and shlocky, lacking even an ounce of chemistry. Two people who shouldn't be together.

It's possible that Scientology may destroy their careers (because it sure as hell helped build them) and throw all sorts of mud their way if they choose to stand against the machine. Remember the recent troubles Travolta had with the whole gay masseuse deal? The conspiracy theory is that he was going to leave the…

I only have an anecdotal bit of evidence here, but I'll share anyway. My bff was on birth control for around 10 years. It took about 2 years to get pregnant after she quit the birth control and began to actively try and make a baby. She had some hormone levels and such that needed to be brought up/down through some…

I would feel so bad for little Edie if her ghost was stuck there after all that. Big Edie though, she'd better be haunting that place until the end of time.

I was lucky enough to see one of these amazing golden wreaths at the Getty Villa in California, before it was returned to Greece. Of all the amazing pieces in that museum, the wreath was my favorite and the image of it has stuck in my head for years.

Agreed. I have had such amazing, honest, emotionally binding experiences with my husband while on any of those. I think it has really helped us understand each other and learn to communicate well. Not to mention those amazing trips where it feels like our souls are dancing together. So awesome.

Also in California, my parents went through their divorce and my dad BEGGED my mother to take her maiden name back and leave his alone. It didn't work.

My own mom finds the word 'vagina' disgusting. Last time she freaked on me (I'm 30, btw) I asked her if she would prefer the word 'twat' or 'pussy'. She thought about it for 3 seconds and nodded, saying very seriously that, yes, those are less offensive to her.

I will admit that I did have a bit of a height hang up for a while myself. I'm 5'11" and usually wound up with taller men (the tallest being 6'7") because, though I wasn't aware of it at the time, shorter guys often went on weird insecurity trips whenever they were romantically/sexually interested in me. I've never…

I'm sending you a major internet high five. As a tall woman (5'11") I've had to deal with men who were anything more than 1" shorter than me acting very weird and occasionally aggressive towards me. I wound up marrying a guy who is 5 inches shorter than I am, and it is way awesome. I was (and am) instantly attracted…

I have pretty much the same thing going with my husband. We are open with pretty much everything in our lives and I cant imagine wanting the stress of having to hide anything, especially when it comes to things like masturbation and porn.

Fully agreed. Especially with such tenacity over such a long period of time. The child I spoke of earlier had gone through this for years and years before her family started to fully transition her. I don't see kids getting that attached to various whims and fads.

I didn't either. It blew me away when I heard for the first time. Glad I could be helpful, at least a little :D

It isn't really a 'whim' though. A friend of mine has a transgender cousin who I believe is approaching 10 now, and started transitioning from male to female at a young age.

I think that one just means she's been henching for the Monarch.

It's probably more along the lines that, with everything that's going on, tattoos should be the last thing this girl should be worrying about. Bad decisions when one is on food aid/continually arrested/etc, as it shows a bad idea of what to prioritize.

No worries. Now you know why men love 'gold' diggers, eh? Get it, get it? *wink wink nudge nudge*
