True. The people behind this video definately shouldn't have made the "real women" comment. They should have done better.

Oh hell, you just scared the living daylights out of me and my not-quite-awake brain. Please never do that again? ;)

I didn't really get your point in your first comment, but this comment clears that up, thanks. I agree with you on this, and dehumanizing is bad. I don't think many people do it on purpose though, real vs entertainment seems a very natural comparison to make, but ofcourse performers in whatever way are real people,

Whether someone doesn't like facials or does like them, that does not a prude/whore make. Let's just call them preferences and skip the whole (slut/prude) shaming thing? Everyones sexual preferences are fine, and none are digusting. As long as they go about it with a consenting partner (or alone) I'm not judging. (Or

Where is that gif from? I think I recognize the couple but I'm not sure from where. :)

Only some cultures (most notably apparently the US) consider asking for certain gifts and/or cash is bad form. Many (many, many) cultures (including mine, I'm Dutch) consider it more than fine. Giving someone a gift they didn't ask for is bad form.

This! It's not neccesary to completely empty your bankaccount for a wedding and then some (as some people here seem to think). Just that it's nice to have some money left after the party (and the mortgage payments/rent, and hospital bills, and insurance etc).

Ah, but even whether asking is tacky or not is different per culture. It is definately not tacky where I live (the Netherlands). Wedding invitations almost always include a gift suggestion with a picture of a small envelope (ie filled with cash). So it's completely acceptable to ask for money. :)

Exactly! I live in the Netherlands and it's customary for a couple to put a gift suggestion on the invitation, a picture of an envelope. So money. Most people then also give a small gift. or get flowers, but cash is absolutely an acceptable gift to give.

I had the same response! She is a HUMAN BEING, not a thing, not property, A PERSON! Jesus! He really doesn't get it, does he?

Oh that's the creepiest thing ever. "Who's your daddy?" Not you dude, I sincerely hope. that would be incest. I can't take anyone seriously if they say stuff like that.

Ha, my SO had a serious case of monobrow (and some errant nosehairs too) and I wasn't sure about him until date #5. We've moved in and I've moved past the hairs (but occasionally clip/pluck them away).

Oh man, I just read the piece about "undomestic daughters". Heaven forbid a girl actually dislikes cleaning and cooking and all the other fucking stuff she should do according these nuts. There is something wrong and you need to fix it - stat!

Or leave the top open en put a cami under it, like WinglessVictory mentions. :)

Exactly! My legs touch (like a lot) so wearing these shorts would be f-ing painful! I mean, it's hot, my legs are sweaty and sticky and they already chafe like crazy. I don't need to add to that by wearing these shorts.

As I'm reading a book on this issue, I've picked up something you said; raging hormones. Apparently this is a very American way of looking at puberty, the adolescent unable to control impulses because of hormones etc. I live in the Netherlands, and here the viewpoint is that teens are able to control and regulate

I am so glad my grandparents raised my mother and aunt pretty gender-neutral (my grand parents are awesome) they got dolls, legos, mecano, a dollhouse, a trainset, and books pretty evenly devided between boys and girls as intended audience. My mum gave me and my sisters all the toys too, gender-ignoring. :) I am very

I'd like to point out that the entire series of posters featured both men and women. :)

Exactly! I was frowning at the whole feet are gross stuff, am I weird that I didn't know it was a thing? :P I've never heard of feet inherently being gross. To me feet are feet. :)

Ha! I have the exact same feet! I like my feet, but the pinky toe escape is pretty annoying when you try to wear nice sandals. :P
