I collect old Playboy magazines, and I agree wholeheartedly. Plus, I don't even particularly like Kate Moss, but there is so much airbrushing on her face that she doesn't even look like Kate Moss any more. Why bother?

I can't believe all the mushroom hate on here! I recently discovered the ultimate mushroom pizza at a woodfired pizza restaurant (very sadly a long way from where I live, and probably even further from you!): It had a mushroom-paste base (I forget exactly what they said it was, but it contained very finely chopped…

Correction: That's that GIRLS are for in those large families....

You know, as a general rule, celebs do very nicely out of their 'foundations'.

It just makes it all the more mind-boggling that someone so genetically blessed in the looks department can be insecure enough to go and mess around with cosmetic surgery/other alterations. As over-exposed as that family is, Kim was easily one of the most stunning women I've ever seen- her childhood pictures show that…

Except the difference isn't as big as you'd think. Something like 45% of women who have a c-section experience all those pelvic floor/prolapse problems, compared with 55-60% of women who have a vaginal birth. A good part of it is just all that weight and pressure effing up your internals when the baby gets big. Plus a…

I just... my son has never got poo on his hands. Although he was TT'ed for more than a year (started at 17mo, mind you) before I plucked up the courage to let him wipe his own bum. I'm not sure I could have coped with the toilet training stage if he had been messy child. Incidentally, our iPad has been a godsend for…

Well good for them. But I think the point is not that 'everyone should do it!!!!', it's that maybe people shouldn't get all Judgey McJudgerson about the people who do.

I always thought Beyonce was a pretty fantastic singer, until she went solo and discovered she could phone in her performances, wear next-to-nothing and make squillions more $$ than when she was singing "Nasty put your clothes on" with Destiny's Child. I have zero respect for Adele's abilities ever since I heard her…

Right on. If Madonna, with all her money, can't get good results when she can afford the very best, high-end help out there, why are we supposed to believe that we would look any better? Hype. This article really should have been accompanied by a recent image of Madonna.

Wow, a good deal of which have everything to do with ancient cultural practices (often preceding Islam) and nothing to do with Islam itself. There's a huge spectrum of cultures and religious practices across the Islamic world, just as Christians differ hugely across (and within) cultures. Please do yourself a favour…

Not the only one! I subscribe, and I collect old issues :)

I'm a slim, not thin, person, and it would take me about a week to look gaunt and starving on a diet like that. If I worked out too, my body would probably be eating itself alive... ew.

Not that many cyclists blithely ride out in front of cars while on their cellphones. Most have had enough near-death experiences from asshole drivers to be hypervigilant all the time. US drivers seem to have possibly even less respect for cyclists than Australian drivers do. And it's pretty darn bad here. I haven't…

I understand there's actually pretty good recent evidence supporting a link between PMDD and severe depression/suicide in women. I know this is DirtBag, but it might be worth the writers occasionally not jumping to conclusions on an issue like this...

Nup, when I look at him I see a young version of Simon Cowell. And I am always bemused by how many women apparently have slept with Cowell...

You know what, I don't like Lady Gaga, or Bieber, or Miley Cyrus. But I still read Dirt Bag, and I don't pretend that the occasional item about them is because someone at Jezebel is bent on shoving stories about people I don't like down my throat. I read this site often and I generally think you seem well-spoken and…

I think that's great, I actually understand where you are coming from here. But the post is about another woman, not you.

Well here's my own piece of anecdata. My little boy had natural dreadlocks for over a year. We didn't have to do anything particularly special to keep them clean other than regular old washing and conditioning- which we did way less often than I need to do for my greasy white-person hair. I slept in the same bed as…

Anecdata, sorry.
