I remember a family that served cut fruit with sour cream and brown sugar... you dip the fruit in the one and then the other. I tried it at home and got screamed at for putting sugar on perfectly good fruit by my *ahem* diabetic father.

I drank milk with EVERYTHING growing up. Cold pizza with milk was my favorite combination. I only stopped because I diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis at 16 and my doctor told me to cut back. WOMP WOMP.

We had a mostly-no-sugar/junk food policy in my house, so it was eat the white bread - Lucky Charms - candy - potato chips - jam festival otherwise known as the sleepover.

An article on Jezebel actually giving reasonably critical analysis on Beyonce? Oh, honey, where do you think you are?

I do love the term sexy sex for exactly this reason. That they are selling a special brand of life that includes better less sweaty, less awkward, more beautiful, more perfect sex.

I think you misread me, I really do agree with the dailymirror on 99percent of things . The daily mail no, the daily mirror champion the working classes so I buy it and yep I agreed with that article. I wasnt aware of the Tina Turner situation but thats just fucked up.

Ask someone in marketing and they'll tell you the ad is 'selling a lifestyle'.
This lifestyle is uhh....indulging in their freedom to be nood out of choice, rather than circumstance (maybe?)

Yeah, I got confused the first time I encountered people saying grace. Then a while later my parents decided for some odd reason to introduce it. It only stuck for a couple years, but those were awkward years at dinner because I just wanted to get that part over with. So when I was asked, I'd mumble something like…

Although, to be clear, I wouldn't associate white Feminists with sex negativity, or assume that all the sex negativity comes from white Feminists. I am a sex positive white Feminist, for instance. Sounds like a tiny-bit of confirmation bias there.

It's so heartwarming and refreshing to read these kind of outcomes.

Did you read that they raised enough money for Orlando to stay? :-)

I was thinking the same thing. Because didn't the mom inherit everything after Brittany's husband died? I can't believe this wasn't more deeply investigated after his death, 5 months later of the same thing. Last I heard the flu doesn't incubate for 5 months.

That was The National Enquirer.

My mom is a cosmetologist so I've been getting my hair done professionally literally my whole life. I tried out a lot of "adult" beauty stuff young like perms when I was 8, manicures at 10, hair dye at 12. My cousin's birthday party when she was little was at the salon my aunt/her mom owned because playing dress up…

I had my first (and only, so far) at 31. It was amazing, because my feet are normally cracked and callous-y, and they made my feet look like model feet. I wish for them all the time now. So maybe you should get a pedi done, if you want, but they are addictive.

Oh god one of my friends growing up had a dad who loved to make the most unhealthy, delicious breakfasts ever after sleepovers. Going to her house to spend the night was like the night before Christmas. We'd wake up to the smell of fucking M&M pancakes wafting through the house.

God bless that man.

But Black women keep making white feminists feel bad about being white...that's racism! Can't Black feminists just stop creating more racism! You would think of ALL PEOPLE Black women would want a race-free space LMAO at all these foolish comments.

We also made facial treats out of crap out of the fridge — oatmeal, avocado, mayonnaise (mmmmmmmm). One time we boiled a bunch of eggs so we could extract the shell membrane to apply to our skin, as we'd read it would tighten our pores up so we could look more youthful than our 12 year old selves. We read about it in…

Totally different. I still can't get mad about it. I am, like, physically incapable of being mad about it. You can be mad about it if you want, I just think it's a fun thing to do with your girlfriends. Or your mom.

My mother is in seventies and grew up on a farm. She can kill and butcher any animal you can name. I'm a pretty butch six-foot woman. My brother's wife gave us, as Christmas presents, gift certificates for pedicures, which neither of us had ever had in our lives.
