I love that!

I'm not. She has body dysmorphic disorder. It's a terrible thing to have and will likely lead her to do horrible things to herself, like mutilating her genitals, and avoid certain situations, and that will lead her to be unhappy. How can she have a normal romantic relationship? How happy are lonely people? Don't be…

There's no excuse for that. People aren't awarded bigger or smaller parts because they're smarter, nicer, or have done things that earned them genitals of one size or another. It's cruel to treat another person like that, laughing. Anyone who laughs deserves to be thrown out! Unacceptable! That is a bad human being…

If a guy reacts like that, there's something wrong with him, not with you!!!

I don't understand why Anastasia thinks that men won't say "ew" when they see that she cut it off. How much therapy will she require then, having mutilated herself and then seeing how men react to that?

How much therapy will you need when guys see your "Barbie" and saw "ew"?

+1000000000

I agree. I feel sorry for this guy because of how people are being so irrational over this. Poor guy.

I agree. The reaction is ridiculous. I see nothing wrong here either.

Exactly.

I saw that on another comment and I commented on it! I wonder why it isn't offered to younger people. People can get shingles before the age of 60. It can cause significant pain for a very long time. I need to look into that.

I said "for most people" because I know that it's not a symbol for everyone, and I am fully supportive of not using a ring if it's not what you want. I wasn't saying how people should feel towards engagement rings. Obviously you wouldn't be posting a photo of an engagement ring on your Facebook because it's not that…

Yes. We all said, "YOU GOT ENGAGED!" He didn't have to spell it out. We're super clever like that.

First of all, you're assuming that it's a diamond. A friend of mine just recently posted the ring he used to ask his girlfriend to marry him with, and no, it was not a diamond. I thought it was sweet. I was happy for him. I would have been happy for him if it was a diamond, too. It's not about the ring, it's about the…

That's good to know! I had the chicken pox when I was young and I am at risk of getting shingles some day. It's apparently not completely effective, but it would be good to lower the risk at least.

There's the scarring, and some kids do actually die from it. Also, once you get the chicken pox, for the rest of your life you're at risk of getting shingles. There is no way to prevent shingles once you have been infected by the chicken pox virus. You don't actually get over it. It stays in your body, dormant, ready…

In the first quote she said out loud all my fears about having a second child.

Yes.

I had the same thought. How are we going to change the way kids think if we keep reinforcing that the way they think is correct?

Yes, it's a symbol of something larger and more important, which makes it completely different from any other large purchase.
