I can't really say there's much about that part of my life I would care to repeat.

Yeah, from grade school to high school, the boy's change room for gym class is basically the homeroom for group sexual assault.

Yes, but it also sounds like par for the course for male adolescent experience.

I would substitute "relationship" for "marriage" in the "strong, loving marriage" portion of the "having it all" concept, but yeah, it's something I value a lot. The attribution of that value to traditional family values or having a "sexy butler that you also love" left me quite confused though. Before you wrote this…

Yes and no. In the big picture, 22 is still pretty damn young. The frontal cortex, which controls such things as decision making, social control and concern for consequences, isn't even completely connected until you are in your mid-twenties.

That's about what I would expect. I'd rather see untouched photos that reflect reality myself, but I accept that for whatever reasons there's always going to be some amount of "cleanup" going on.

Gah!!! WHY are they stretching her??? What the holy fuck? WHY? WTH is wrong with people?

I have a small amount of understanding for "touch ups" like smoothing, blurring, deleting stray hairs etc... but the shit being done to this image is just fucking *wrong*.

Am I the only one that sees the glaring omission here? This study shows that both men and women look at women's bodies more than their faces. Ok, fine, I can accept that. But what does it even mean?

Can we please ditch the US-centrism here? And maybe talk about shows when they are actually released instead of only when they first air in the states? It's getting rather annoying to read "news" about a show that I already saw like a year ago.

Is this really a surprise? To anyone?

If he is upset for the "perceived waste of time" thing, he may cease being upset if you explain it to him.

"...He always gets upset and says that I look nice in whatever I'm wearing and that I don't need to wear makeup. It's very sweet of him, but he doesn't realize that I don't make myself presentable just for him..."

Is there any theory out there like this (benevolent vs. ambivalent) applied to race?

Wait a sec. Am I reading this wrong?

care to disagree with examples?

Jackie Brown, Buffy or Willow.

The truth is that EVERYONE wants to be a good velociraptor, but NOBODY is :(

...implicit in advocating (which is what you were doing, let's get real) for allowing men to abdicate parental responsibilities pre-birth by using the justification that women can use safe haven laws to do the "same" (even though it's not) is, by necessity, making a value judgment that the latter at least on equal…

...Here's the thing you are conveniently forgetting in the La La Land you seem to live in: Safe Haven is hardly an option that falls on equal footing to a man's option to simply walk away from a pregnancy prior to actual birth...

...Tell me more about how it is good for society to laud the Safe Haven option for women and pretend it is a good one...
