The Olympics are a gross cash grab, including for this reason. The women’s “uniforms” are meant to draw viewership, in turn leading to sponsorship and ad revenue. Women’s bodies are commodified in a way that men’s are not, in this an other sports. 

The purple gingham is actually super cute on you, but you’d have to be in exactly the right sunshine-and-kittens mood to pull it off. The yellow floral is nice too, and would look great with a super bag and shoes. But, I can totally get behind not feelin’ ANY of these, especially the frilly abomination in slide 3.

Thank…

Respectfully, Big Dick Energy (BDE) isn’t solely about having a big dick. It’s about the no-fucks-given swagger, the air of power hidden under a calm exterior. It’s a boss aura. For instance, Rihanna has all kinds of BDE. So does Oprah. Neither of them needs to tell you they’re alphas or whatever, they just are- and…

Don’t forget the tattletales and slut-shaming that made it even cringier. 

Rumour has it that Nick Cannon is actually really good at putting a condom on a banana; however, he never quite got that banana-ripeness-protection is not what condoms are usually for.

Agreed. She’s a great model, and seems like an interesting person. But my gods the woman cannot act. Her face is so very striking, but it can’t carry a show.

However... that house! It’s so incredibly extra, I love it! It’s strangely refreshing to see a rich person who’s unafraid to really, really have fun with their…

Years ago, a woman on the street where I lived had breast cancer. She had a lumpectomy followed by chemo and rads, and afterwards called her breast “the Frankenboob” because it now had a small concavity.

Then I got breast cancer. Mine was different, with a complete mastectomy followed immediately by a reconstruction…

He was the thinking girl’s crumpet in “Real Genius”, a charming film which has mostly not stood the test of time. His work in “The Saint” ages a little better, but it’s right around the time it became known that he was an absolutely insufferable jerk to work with, alas.

I think I love you.

That kind of silk is just crisp enough to hold its puff from the pleats. If not, a layer of silk tulle inside the sleeve would do the trick. I can pretty much guarantee that dress was not itchy at all. 

Boyfriends perhaps, but not lovers. Diana’s virginity was, horribly, a much-discussed requirement of the day, as it was said that “no man can say he Knew the [future] queen before the King did.” Unless of course The Firm let that be discreetly released to the ever-prurient Press as part of the fairytale story. Ugh. 

Unl…

Agreed. I prefer anything like the Paper Bag Princess, let’s rescue our own damn selves. :-)

That dress was So Much that I can well believe it was as hated as it was loved, and my heart goes out to your friend. Diana was many things in life, and goes on to inspire women coming into power. But also, her image still sells magazines, which makes me wistful.

The reason why I personally think Diana’s dress…

The frenzy over the Royal Wedding and what the dress would look like is difficult to describe in modern terms. I was the same age as Diana, and remember walking along a high street in Toronto just before six pm on the big day, and came across a shop with television in the window. The coach was arriving, and me and a…

Today, in Bucket List Items I Never Knew I Had: Dream Job Edition- to be an International Makeout Superstar.

This whole “main character of your own life” is just fine until you expect the unsuspecting public to be unpaid extras. Boldly public declarations of love come to mind. Remember the triumphant scene in “Love, Actually” where Colin Firth stumbles into a busy restaurant to confess his love in halting Portuguese? The…

As it happens, a close friend is a longtime manager of movie theatres both large and small. They say that auditoriums are ventilated, and take outside air as well. The caveat is that they’ve seen very few theatres that are very good at refreshing the air when at full capacity, as some HVAC units are better than…

Not to be that guy, but the room is climate-controlled which means it has ventilation. If you mean “open windows and fans circulating air” then that lets out shopping malls, museums, office buildings, and most every public indoor space.

Don’t get me wrong- I’m in no rush to hit the clubs when my province finally opens…

“Mildly attractive dirtbag” is objectively the best description ever for Pete Davidson’s physical charms, or at least the ones on display for the general public.

Angelina Jolie was allegedly told by her father that tattoos are bad for a movie actor’s career, because the extra time and money needed to cover them for…

There are men who spend the cash to roleplay rugged survivalists, and do I have a story:
