I am really hoping those three people go to jail, too. That is so far beyond messed up...there just aren't words.

I change my underwear twice a day (daytime-thongs & nighttime-comfy undies). I change my sheets when I feel like it (never more than twice a month). Jeans are worn until they get too loose, shirts are worn a couple of times, and bras...well, I wash them occasionally. They're just so expensive & wear out so quickly…

LOL, I totally thought that. I figured maybe it was a new, edgy storyline?

You are so hearted for this!

I disagree with you; I like it a lot (when done slooooowly). I've even had orgasms that way. And some guys are just curious about it, not really interested in doing it for reasons of degradation.

Well...is that something she really wanted to do to him? Because if it is, yeah, he should be willing to return the favor. But if it's not something she really cares about, I could see him not wanting to do it.

Do you normally talk about sex in this kind of detail? Is it the fact that she's so open about her sex life that bothers you, or is it b/c of the specific act?

Light cotton sun dress. Remember to use antiperspirant on the insides of your thighs, though.

LOL, very whitewhines.com.

I have lost 2 people in the last year to drug addiction. It's very sad. I'm so sorry for her family.

Adorable fur ball of death!

HA, yes. THIS! I have been saying that for ages.

HAHA, have you read some Beppe Severgnini? He is hilarious & as an ex-pat in Italy, you're pretty much obliged to read his books.

This whole article (and every single comment) is the biggest white whine (wine) I've ever seen.

I lived in Italy for several years. It was so funny when my male friends would INSIST on paying, but then be really grateful when I'd slip them the cash after we left the restaurant. It's definitely a machismo thing there. The men are absolutely expected to pay, whether they can afford it or not.

I sometimes say "my bad" when I feel like being obnoxious. You know, just to annoy other people. 'Cause I HATE that phrase & I hated it when it was popular. Ugh!

I lived overseas for several years & definitely picked up some Brit slang. Also, my grammar & spelling have deteriorated. (Lived in Italy, spoke Italian for work, all of my friends had studied British English, so that's how they spoke, wrote, etc...) So I SWEAR I'm not being pretentious.

That would be awesome...but no. Not quite THAT much of an exhibitionist.

I STILL do this. I am 32 years old.

I saw it at a film festival a few months back. Freaking great film. Definitely loaded, but the film maker was at the festival & she admitted as much. She said it's her opinion, but that she felt it was something that needed to be said and usually was not. I totally agree with her.
