The UK is kind of an exception though, there's all these countries within the UK itself in the first place and anybody who's British by descent at least two generations back can claim dual citizenship and get a UK passport, and all you need is a birth certificate from the British relative to prove you're somehow…

Parents. My friends dad was born in France while is parents were on vacation, but they were from Italy. As it was just vacation he was officially born an Italian, and his parents went back and raised him etc. Being considered a French citizen wouldn't make sense since he probably spent all of 24 hours there as the…

I ONLY buy rosemary foccacia. It's the best thing in my life.

AHHH I have the same bathingsuit from ModCloth! It brings out my green eyes, and despite being super pale the contrast on my skin is really nice. I always get compliments.

That IS your vagina. The area you can see between your legs is the labia majora, and the long "tube" that you insert tampons and penises into is your vagina. The cervix is the wall at the back that stops tampons and dicks from going anywhere else, and has a role to play in pregnancy or birth or something, that's where…

Sexism, dude. You been here before?

That is SO COOL. I want a house with really old stuff between the levels.

That confuses me though, 'cause if they menstruated less often, then doesn't that mean they were less fertile or had a fertility problem? I just can't buy that in 100 to 200 years the female reproductive system alone evolved to be more fertile. I just... don't buy it. I do buy that there would've been confusion back…

Hell, up until the early 1900's I'm pretty sure even doctors didn't look at lady parts directly. They just kinds shoved their hands under their skirts and felt around, 'cause it was so "indecent".

Well aware of the Wiki info, and I've been to the Museum of Menstruation page before too. Both offer suggestions for what women did for pads and tampons before the 19th century, but even the Museum doesn't have many quoted historical writings on the subject. It's mostly guesswork pieced together from random bits of…

I buy the "flying under the radar" thing, I think early tampons and pads pretty much went the same way. Since men wouldn't deign to involve themselves in the garments and necessities of women, and history was pretty much just a recording of *important things* (ie: shit men did) there's pretty much no history of the…

I put most stuff in the side of the bra, basically in the armpit area. Grosser because more sweat, I know, but then my arm covers up any lumps and I find it's tighter there than in the cup itself, so stuff won't fall out or move around. It's also just the teeniest bit more discrete and less note-worthy when I reach…

I don't see why selling these online would be illegal as long as they didn't claim to be part of VS and user their logos and such. After this point is made, why can't they direct people to a legit online store?

"You don't want to use a condom? Oh, so I guess you really want to be a dad then, eh?"

If you've ever participated in a life drawing class where you drew a woman, you will see that there are always curves. Sometimes they're blatant and sometimes they're subtle, but you'd be hard pressed to find a woman who is made up of nothing but straight lines and hard angles.

I'm pretty sure that's supposed to be six months; they say so at the beginning and the coach checks in a few times throughout, and they say how far along they are in the time period. They set goals like losing 60 pounds in 6 months, so the audience can watch and see if they do lose 10 pounds a month or not.

I would've told him his math was wrong, I wouldn't want to work for an idiot like that.

Yup, I knew he'd had some bigger roles more recently, the Buffy episode was obviously at the beginning of his career. I know some of the actors from Buffy have come onto HIMYM because of their connection with Alyson; I was surprised to see that Kal was also on Buffy.

Did you know that *kinda old HIMYM spoilers* the guy that plays the therapist that Robin dated for a while was also in Buffy? I know he's a bigger name now, but I was rewatching Buffy and he's in an episode in season 4 where the beer on campus is bewitched and makes people (specifically Buffy and four guys she meets)…

That's why I included the "discussed or agreed upon beforehand" caveat. 'Cause yeah, lingerie (whether aesthetic or practical) can be a thoughtful gift. A practical bra for Christmas would be great 'cause they're stupidly expensive and I can always use more. But that's not the kind of lingerie I think most people are…
