Are they marketing to gay men or straight women?

I hope the baby is going to be ok.

@hortense: Sorry, but I have issues with websites always talking about plus sizes, but rarely (and I mean rarely) about petites. This is a body image issue as well, yet unlike plus sizes, we aren't really allowed to talk about it (in fact, I've heard some people say that petite celebrities are advised against

Can't wait to see magazines do a petite/short girl issue (I know, I know....any issue with celebrities can be a short girl issue.....but when they feature, say, Lady Gaga or Eva Longoria, they're not emphasizing their height!)...if they do that at all. I think celebs are advised against talking about being short!

@ShanaElmsford: Haven't Italians been worshipping light hair for like a zillion years? I'm pretty sure my Latin teacher once said that upper class Roman women used to cut hair from their Scandanavian slaves for wigs.

@Lymed: Actually, it was an actor, not an actress for Miss Saigon. Jonathan Pryce was cast to play the Engineer, who is supposed to be Eurasian. Except for some Scandanavian or maybe local productions, no Kim has ever been played by a white actress.

@Penny: True. Her "good eye" might be very strong, too. I have about 80% hearing loss in my left ear. I've never worn a hearing aid and if I started now, I'd probably feel like I'm at a concert.

On Tiger: I never hear the Asian communities criticize him (who he dates, marries, etc.....), even though he seems to have more Asian features than black (he kind of looks like an Asian with a deep, deep tan). I don't think the Asian communities have ever "claimed" him as their "own" either.

I *LOVE* Eloise!!! She's such a brat, but fun at the same time. Since Kay Thompson played the editor in the movie Funny Face, I often wondered whether a grown-up Eloise could be worse than Anna Wintour! LOLOL!

Sephora VENDING MACHINES? I thought the whole purpose of Sephora was so that you can spend hours and hours there playing with make-up!

@harperpitt: Probably a little embarassing from Patrick's POV.

@Zombie Ms. Skittles: But isn't the Best Supporting Actor/Actress Oscar cursed, regardless of who wins?

@taranwanderer: Mulan isn't technically a princess either.

@HarpMadness: They actually DID say that they only wanted English-speaking press. This post said that they didn't want FOREIGN press. *CONFUSED*

@HarpMadness: But it still isn't accurate. The Globe and Mail (Canada) and even the South China Morning Post (English-medium paper in Hong Kong) are foreign publications and they probably wouldn't be barred.

FYI: They didn't say "no foreign press." They only wanted ENGLISH SPEAKING PRESS. Still xenophobic, though.

@BeckySharper: Alex may be a conservative, but would he go rogue?

@MerryLilly: Same. I know a girl who claims to be an alumna of a school that didn't have her program as a degree major - only as a continuing studies program!

@LoSpaz: Do you think that's why some guys from boys-only schools aren't married even though they're pushing 40? I know a guy who is 39 and still likes to party like it's 1999!

This is what some people have been saying: alumnae from girls/women-only institutions tend to be more confident, while alumni from boys/men-only schools linger onto frat boy behaviour well into adulthood. I know parents who want to send daughters to girls' schools, but sons to co-ed.
