So accurate. I'm from a pretty racist area of the south, yet when I went to a college populated largely by northerners, I was shocked by how racist they were. Maybe because it was primarily rich white kids, they were the types that liked to say that they weren't racist, but actually were very much so when confronted…

Exactly. I'm religious in like the loosest sense of the word (I believe in a god, but I don't believe in organized religion), so religion is not a big dealbreaker for me. It is if a) someone expects me to legitly join up with their religion, or b) they won't humor my family, because I'm not going to date someone who I…

I feel like OKC needs a religious descriptor option that says something like "not particularly serious about it, but my family is so you need to at least be willing to tag along when they inevitably make me bring you to a religious event with them".

I'm a fan of co-ed sports. I feel like co-ed sports do a lot to improve gender relations.

When you take into account those pregnancy tragedies, this is kind of poignant. It like the women were saying, "No we're not going to have sex and risk pregnancy because with this shitty road that might mean death for us."

Ha, thanks!

That's the idea, though you can have different body types and races represented and still have the same effect. Larger figures wear certain clothes better than skinnier models and vice versa. Different skin colors show off different colors better. Like if I had a fashion show (I'm a seamstress and designer) I would…

Not really. There's not a whole lot of overall body difference between the waifish male models and the waifish female models. Sure, some designers prefer buff male models, but plenty of others don't.

Will this willingness to think outside of the box when it comes to what's "fashionable" eventually extend to seeing more ethnic diversity and more plus size models in fashion?

That would be an awesome Hell House. Terrifying because of the harsh truths, but effective.

Oops double post.

Omigod. Because Santa Claus is totally an alternative to "pagan" costumes. The ignorance both saddens and amuses me.

Oh wow, what a blast from the past. This makes me remember the "Judgement House" that my church youth group (when I was still in church) would go to every year (I never went, because I don't do horror of any kind). I had never heard of these as being called Hell Houses, but in retrospect that is totally what it was.…

I was discussing this with a friend the other day and we did some math- his wife I spent like 15 years of her life pregnant. 15 YEARS. Holy fuck.

A+ book reference.

Yeah, which is why I mostly limit myself to black or white for my neutrals. I do have a casual pair of brown boots and a dressier pair of brown boots, which means I only break out the brown when I'm going for a more outdoorsy or bohemian look.

Ah ok. Communication error.

The thing is that there is little difference between that for me. My fashionable shoes *are* practical. I very rarely buy shoes that I don't consider to be both stylish and functional. This is why I have a bajillion canvas shoes in a rainbow of colors. They're all practical dance shoes for me and I try to set aside…

I have a shit ton of shoes and only a few of my pairs are heels. Most of mine are different dance shoes with soles that are appropriate for different floors. Then I have several different pairs for dressy occasions, cleats for my athletic stuff, non-slip shoes for work, and different boots for different purposes (is…

Are you saying that you have one magical pair of shoes that's appropriate for formal wear, casual wear, soccer, running, swing dancing, ballroom dancing, and work? Because those are all things that I do that need totally different shoes because one pair will not work for all of them. If you think that one pair will…
