The girl in the front looks bored.

@AllieBaba: Yeah, but most people who wear 6" heels would have legs which are proportionately too long.

I want to know what Ms. Anna thinks of us shorties.

Aren't dancers taller than they used to be? I mean, is that why they're lifting their legs higher (or at least, giving the illusion of that)? Audrey Hepburn, at 5'7" was considered "too tall" to be a ballerina back in her day. Now, many dancers are 5'7" and I think that's a minimum height for several companies.

Welcome to the 21st century.

@Samanthrax is Sarcastic: How short people are often talked to as if they're little kids. How sales people at department stores direct women to the children's department for clothes, even though a girls' 12 or 14 would likely not fit these women properly. How tailoring is often suggested to people even when hemming

@Samanthrax is Sarcastic: People seem to complain that models don't "look like them" (especially when it comes to ethnicity), but they can always find someone (or at least sort of does) who does in foreign/imported media. Besides, why do people seem to have issues with me around here? Because I'm short and always

I'm short and skinny, so I don't look like anyone on the runway, but I probably have a similar body type to a lot of the shorter actresses/singers. As for people who actually LOOK like me, I can always turn on some cable channel which broadcasts imported shows from Asia.

People who use the whole Christian defense need to do their homework. A few denominations (or at least Churches within denominations) ARE gay-friendly. The Anglican church near my house has a rainbow flag (and I'm sure have blessed gay couples...not sure if they actually marry-marry them or if these couples need to

Why would an Aussie ad use an American-accented voiceover?

@HoneyBoom: Some prospective parents seek international adoption BECAUSE they want to adopt a child who is of their own (or similar) ethnicity. There are probably next to no Asian descent babies available for adoption domestically.

Aren't most of Anthro's stuff by other people anyway?

I'm trying hard not to go the traditional route, but I think I might be pushed into it. I already told my mom that I am going local for my bridal gown as well as for bridesmaid dresses (I was only going to have a maid of honour, but The Boy says he wants two groomsmen, so it looks like I'm going to need two) and she

You know, Little Edie would totally have her own reality show if she were from this generation.

@Jezebabe: If I travelled back 80 years, I wouldn't want to be in Canada nor do I want to be poor in Hong Kong or Shanghai. I WOULD, however, want to go back to 1920s or 1930s (pre Japanese) Shanghai as a society girl :) A lot of them wore clothes that were a cross between Chinese and western (or wore western

Wait a sec.....how could she have gone to Columbia? Wasn't it all guys then? She would have been at Barnard, no?

5'9" and 90 lb? This means she's 7 inches taller than me and 5 lb LIGHTER! Ew.

WNTW is the only TV show which recognizes that petite doesn't only mean short and skinny and that it means short, period. That's a good thing. :)

It seems to me that something is "diverse" if it includes someone who is black or hispanic, but not say, Asians. Why is that, anyway? I mean, people are more likely to say that a picture has a "diverse group of people" if it has one black person and eleven white people over a picture with three Asian people and nine
