I actually had this boyfriend. FOR 8 YEARS. Also, no sex unless I'd had a shower. etc.

I'm Canadian too, and I wasn't allowed to be in Girl Guides when I was a kid in the 80s. I got to do Pioneer Girls instead, a christian version with no camping. Even I knew it was kind of lame, and I was a pretty nerdy kid. Awful thing- I can still remember the song:

I really like this mascara, and I don't wear makeup every day (maybe 2x per week). I do find that I need a lash brush, and I need to use it right after the mascara, but whether I want to tart it up in a corset, or look totally natural, it always seems to work.

More GOT stuff, but does anyone else think she looks a lot like Brienne of Tarth in that hand bra (~2:13)? The face and hair, not the outfit, obviously. :)

OK. I'll bite. Yukoner here. It's been -50-ish before wind chill, but I agree that -40 is pretty cold!

I don't smell either, and I am a runner! I only start smelling bad after about 20km. This has been confirmed by many running partners and both my current and past romantic partners. I don't sweat a lot, either. Maybe just luck/biology?

Too funny. I've just spent almost a month taking care of my entitled ex who was dumped by a girl he was dating for a year. Long distance. I've called him an entitled dick over and over again.

He says tht it's instead of linens, but NO. IF YOU ARE SLEEPING IN IT, IT IS YOUR LINENS. It doesn't mean you don't have to wash it.

Yep, it's weird, because I am 33 and still have a gap at 120lbs and 5'4", hardly super-skinny. I just have wide hips or something?

Me too! I am probably at my least fit of the last 10 years, but in the last month I ran a 50km race, and I was an egg donor, which makes me so, so, so grateful for what my body can produce and do. I'm looking forward to regaining my fitness, but knowing what my body is already capable of is awesome.

The nice thing about the spoon thing is that it's the CHILD'S perogative to do it. I they want autonomy over their own lives, they can choose to do this. If they are OK with their arranged marriage, they won't do it.

I don't fault you for writing about cartoons- they are important. Only in my 30s have I started to wonder where I got that idea that being a girl was "bad", why I have always wanted to be a boy, why I shunned female characters, singers, artists, while embracing male ones. Could it maybe be that I was taught it so…

My ex told me regualrly that I was not attractive "to him". That was his way of keeping me in line, since I already knew that I was 24 and relatively conventionally attractive. I was with him for nearly 8 yrs, and now, 2 yrs later, I think my self-esteem is pretty much back to where it needs to be.

Hm. This gets me thinking. This class has to be taken "...not more than 30 days..." before the abortion, so does that mean that any woman can just sign up? If I lived in TX I would totally just sign up, go to the class, and be like "well, this is just in case I might want an abortion soon. No, no, I'm not pregnant.…

The following article also applies to balls:

I'm already showering her with love. She sleeps with her head on the pillow next to me for most of the night. I woke up the other night in the middle of the night, and she was looking at me, annnnddd... LICK.

I am about to have a new addition to my family- she is 18months old, a german shepherd. My ex-boyfriend is going through a mid-life crisis and just can't take care of her right now, and although she and I have bonded (I've been staying with them for 2 weeks now), I don't really know what will happen when I take her…

This is along the lines of what I thought too. It's amazing, really, that people are even considering the future sex lives of baby boys, and trying to do things to ensure they have more and better sex when they are old enough. Can you imagine a similar conversation being had about baby girls?

I am pale ivory-skinned and it is pretty much the only lipstick I own. I don't wear a lot of makeup and I have a small-mouth/big-eyes thing going on (like an anime girl) and bright or dark lipstick just looks weird on me, I think. I had no idea it was perfect for everyone!

I stated this above, but I'll let you know too. No disrespect meant, OK? I know kids hate the med alert bracelets, but I'm a first responder and it terrifies me to think of a day when I have to go on a scavenger hunt of a kid's body trying to find the medical alert to try to figure out what I'm dealing with. Make it…
