@JohnAgamemnon: So you'd rather have a guy who was good in bed but lousy when it comes to conversation and taste? That, my friend, is called a fling. I would never, ever have a long term relationship with any man who was only good for sex. Honestly, I would rather have a guy who was only ok in bed, but who is…

@JohnAgamemnon: I've heard that the only mainland guys HK women go for are those who have some sort of foreign degree or have spent some time abroad. It's all about the accomplishments....

Wait...these ladies take the money and run, right? Do they serve the guys with divorce papers? Because they should. That way, they can take the money and run many, many times....

Religiosu institutions can do whatever they want. If a religious institution refuses to marry gay (or interfaith or divorced) couples, so what? If a religious school requires a letter from a priest/minister/rabbi/imam/whatever before a prospective teacher can be hired, once again, so what?

@PetiteGal: Should have said that I wore the school uniform for graduation.........you miss things when you post at 12:11 in the morning!

@FurrierAndIves: Nope, it's public (I think this is the school: [www.lex5.k12.sc.us])

I went to a girls-only university preparatory school and for graduation because it was the last time we would ever wear it. I was always jealous of one of the other schools where the girls wore white and carried bouquets - like debutantes. I always thought the wearing of white by girls was much more traditional than…

I think Lorelai Gilmore is more of a feminist than her daughter, Rory. After all, Lorelai had a child at the age of 16 and had to work her way up from being a maid to running an inn. She did this ALL BY HERSELF. Rory, on the other hand, did not. She got into Chilton and Yale through connections, no?

@splenda: Vanity sizing. And many companies started making their regular sizes longer when they launched petites. In the late 1990s, regular length pants looked fine on me, especially if I wore heels. Now, I wear petites.

@Scout 3.0: But what they don't realize is that the so-called "little emperors" and "little empresses" might not take care of their parents later-in-life. If homes for the elderly specifically targetting Chinese-speaking people are popping up in Canada, I wouldn't be surprised if they are in China (especially in the…

@chinaplate: Your standard math classes are probably harder than American (and probably many Canadian) schools. I don't know about the US or other parts of Canada, but in Ontario, kids are streamed to university prep ("academic") and non-university prep ("applied") in Grade 9 (around age 14). In the old days,…

The one child policy is really a one biological child policy (unless you have a girl first). Families can adopt as many kids as they want. Also the one child policy only applies to Han Chinese (which make up the vast majority of people in China). Minority cultures are allowed to have more than one biological kid.

Canadian House & Home was a sponsor for the Junior League of Toronto's Showhouse this year (and I think they have been for a few of them, including the last one in 2004).

Have you guys seen the video with SJP where she, um..."loves the word sigh"?

@HereComesMyBaby: I don't have an iPhone. I carry a separate phone and mp3 player

Didn't you guys post a similar video a few months ago?

@that's what she said: Wait, you can be 13 to marry in NH?? WTF? I thought the general accepted age for minors is 16.

I'm just as confused as a lot of people here. Shouldn't religions have the right to refuse? I mean, I can't married in most synagogues or Catholic churches unless one of us converts (my bf's sister married a non-Jew and had a lot of trouble finding a rabbi who'd marry them (they finally found one)) My mom's friend…

I think a lot of non-white women have more issues with drugstore brands than with department store brands. I(medium-ish skin for someone who is southern Chinese) have never had trouble finding foundation shades in brands like Stila, Bobbi Brown, Lancome and MAC (most people don't have issues with MAC, anyway), but…

Hey, at the age of 18, I had my first peck on the cheek from a guy who wasn't a relative (I went to an all girls' school, didn't go to dances until I was 15 and was not involved with school plays or anything (I sucked at acting) where boys were around). I had my first "real kiss" when I was in my early 20s and lost my…
