Totally. I didn't use to care, and thought if someone was into me, it didn't really matter what they identified as. I guess I still don't really care what people identify as, it's their business and I will not invalidate their identity, but I sure as shit will not date anyone who is bi/pansexual/fluid/open to dating

As a lesbian femme, I do feel the effects of invisibility, and hope to not perpetuate it. I also realized I am prejudiced against bisexuality, and honestly, I feel like it's been learned through experience, rather than through ignorance. Burned once, twice shy and all that.

I disagree. I have a rather huge nose, and very sharp dark features. I like my face, but it is not subtle. I also have thick dark curly hair...so when it's long, it sort of competes with my face. I feel like having short hair lets my face just be, and my large nose then is not "too much", but just is.

YES. I don't think there's a "right" face for a pixie cut. There are lots of styles of pixie/short cuts. And how many times do you hear people say that about men? "I don't know if he has the right face for short hair". Oh...never.

I love short hair on younger women. I don't really like cuts like this though...sort of a faux short cut - long, face-framing in the front! I can keep the security of my long hair! Oh but it's a pixie in the back! Short hair confidence!

Thanks. I kind of feel that too - that it's better to prevent before it becomes a big problem! and it's also really scary.

Daiya - the mozzarella kind (the others kinda suck, IMO).

Hi guys. Wondering if you have some insight.

Jenny Saville! Love her work. And Freud. Was pleasantly surprised to see his painting as that title image.

I did not make that original comment, but this is what comes to mind:

Oh man, I used to read her fanfiction. Very Secret Diaries, anyone?

So, I noticed the post a little while ago about Kim and Kanye's baby being named North West, and figured it was a joke post by Lindy...sort of "let's pick a name because they haven't said what the baby's name is yet". I didn't read the post.

I'm torn.

Yes, as in made from python skin. :) I can totally understand buying a first edition Nabokov! That's a big deal.

I think "normal" people buy them. I just recently bought a pair of $1000 Ferragamo python pumps, and consider myself pretty normal, as in not wealthy.

My cat does that too! I didn't know it was called chattering. It's like a weird clicking sort of sound at the birds on our balcony.

Ah, running. I too hated running, and wanted to learn how, just because it bugged me that I couldn't do it. I also like the simplicity of it.

A boozy painting class is nothing new...though it seems to have become a "thing". It was how I learned how to paint! And, I believe, is quite common in art studios. With the way it's portrayed here, and in an article I read here, people seem to be doing it just for the novelty.

Yikes. Though I'm sure it exists somewhere in the dark corners of the internet...

Exactly. Smut is sort of the *point* of fanfic, and I say that as someone who had a solid obsession with Merry/Pippin slashfic (OTP!!!121!1!) when the LOTR moves were coming out.
