Don't feel guilty about that. I love receiving presents too. It makes me feel thought-of, loved. And I love surprises. If you tie a lot of expectations to presents, that wouldn't be cool. But enjoying presents isn't anything to be ashamed of.

I am not defending this, because I think it is super fucked up too, but they aren't making out. It is clearly fake-kissing happening. I want to reiterate - it is still not okay. I don't want to fake makeout with my dad either, its horrifying.

Echoing many other commenters. Body positive, and I don't read it as slut shaming. I liked it.

And directing their bizarrely shorted crotches right into the camera. Wearing safety blazers without shirts under them. One topless guy amidst a sea of warm-clothed ones.

I don't want the toddler to be "connected to the sex business."

Well, there is the lesbian make out session that she said happened because she was drunk, but she doesn't look that drunk to me and it seemed very passionate.

You made my clitoris cringe.

I would like to see fetuses prosecuted when they harm the women who have to carry them. Assuming we can figure out that "jury of their peers" thing, I expect to see them sentenced to life sentences or even capital punishment if they commit a capital offense in Virginia, like horse rustling or treason or the murder of…
