There's a huge difference between dress that has cultural significance to the wearer and a costume. What your cousins are wearing? Not a costume. When a random White girl with no Native American cultural heritage wears it? It's cultural appropriation, a costume, and that's not okay. No one's policing how much of a…

That was GLORIOUS. Wow.

I don't even like ice cream and I would by the shit out of that.

This, exactly. A strap across the throat doesn't exactly seem safe to me. And even when you can adjust the seat belt height, it never seems to go down far enough (That's what he said.)

Safety is what actually got me thinking about this. Looking at the mannequins used for crash testing, safety ratings, etc., the female mannequins tend to be fairly tall and flat-chested. They really don't look that much different from the male mannequins. I know my seat belt sits very differently on my short and busty…

A style of seat belt that accommodates the fabulously busty ladies. Every time I get in my car, my boobs get in the way. DESIGN FLAW.

From what I can see online, it looks like Lulu tops out at a size 12. Zellas has a plus size line which is really helpful, but I think a lot of women are priced out of both Lulu and Zella. I was thinking more along of the lines of being able to find plus size workout clothes at Target, or the sporting goods stores in…

Here's the flip side of that argument, and one that's always baffled me. People go on and on (and on and on and on) about the obesity crisis and how people who are overweight need to get up off their fat asses and eat healthy and exercise. This is me! I'm one of those fatasses who's trying to eat healthy and exercise,…

This could be the beginning of a fun game: Preserve blog post or excerpt from a gay romance novel? You decide!

Consumer Reports would quibble with you about that, at least when it comes to nail polish.

Blackstreet! Yes.

Let's get some ladies up in here.

True, but business partnerships dissolve all the time for reasons that don't go that far beyond, "I can't stand to look at your stupid face anymore." Business partnerships and romantic partnerships aren't really all that different.

I hear you on this. I moved from an area where everyone friends with the person standing in line behind them at the grocery store to an area where talking to strangers is something you just do. not. do. I can't (and don't want to) shake the habit of talking to strangers and I've found that if I'm respectful and quick…

Here's the thing: Street harassers aren't telling women they look good. What they're really saying is, "I have more power than you do, whether I recognize it or not, and I'm going to exercise it by saying something sexualized and inappropriate to you." There's a world of difference between, "Hey, I like your shirt!"…

I agree with you here. I keep coming back to country because of all the genres I listen to, it's country that seems most relatable. It's not perfect, but it's the best I can find.

I don't really understand the anger in this article. Country, like other genres of music, is a game artists have to play if they want to be heard. Steve Grand wrote a gay country love song but because he's not backed by a label, it's not really getting heard.

For me, because it seems out of sync with the situation. I don't generally expect to see an adult's underwear outside of sexual situations or specific types of performances. As I said, if that shirt were worn with a sports bra or something that provided more coverage, I wouldn't think twice about it. But it feels…

You're right, the fact that I find it impractical is irrelevant to whether it should be allowed. The question you asked, however, was why it bothered people, and I think the impracticality of is part of what bothers people. It's been mentioned several times in different threads on this post already.

I haven't seen it on my campus, but it could certainly be something I see a lot of in the fall. It would skeeve me a little bit, though; I don't want to see someone's most recent Vickie's purchase. When it's a sports bra or something with more coverage I don't mind, but a lingerie-style bra just feels like it crosses…
