I always only wanted to be Nzingha. Yeah she was a princess, but she was so bad ass. I think obsessions with a specific historical royal figure is fine, rather than obsession with the whole concept. If I had a kid who idolized King Christina of Sweden or Boudiccea or something I'd be fine.

Are you French?

It's very manipulative- part of their trip is building homes, but they're only doing so for Ethiopians who've joined the church or will agree to join the church. In essence, they're building homes as church property, and the church gets to decide who lives there or not based on religious affiliation. I think that's…

Makes as much sense as anything. My evangelical sister often says that Catholics aren't real Christians, while I'm like

Ew to that guy.

I was thinking the same thing except with my race. All the Internet access in the world could not convince some black men to fall out of love with girls they call thickems.

You can both drink and you're both part of the same generation. You're fine. You're less than 2 whole years apart!

Does anyone just not like missionaries? My friend is going on a mission to Ethiopia with her church on a mission, and I only wish her a good time and don't say anything ( when she asked for me to help sponsor the mission I just declined without voicing opposition). But I don't like religious missionaries. It's not…

As she should be. As we all should be.

A better example:

Everyone thinks David Bowie is hot, albeit femme, and everyone thinks Christina Hendricks is hot even though she's not stick thin. So accepting a pic of Bowie but not Christina is hypocritical. They add to the discussion in the exact same way. A picture of Christina Hendricks is not a threat to you.

I wish people would stop confusing body shape/type for body size. Those two women clearly have the same body shape (hourglass) at 2 different sizes. That's what curvy means. But fat girls can also be flat chested (which is a bane to them, as plus sized clothes often employ low v necks and assume all fat girls have…

You see very few very fat women in portraiture of the time, and even Rubens women weren't as big as people think. The fluctuation between weights considered beautiful by European standards don't deviate all that much, and the trends were actually more about where that weight was distributed ( a trend for small breasts…

Yeah, but with Playboy I think more boudoir-y, come hither cheesecake. This is just girls hanging out, but naked. They don't even look like they're trying to be sexy or enticing, just kind of goofing off. I didn't realize that was a "thing" that Playboy does.

You need to read W magazine. It's the standard purveyor of what is known as "fashion tit".

If you scrolled down, then you scrolled right past the NSFW warning. Someone was in a hurry, weren't they....

This isn't actually about the internet though. It basically boils down to saying that richer people tend to have a different standard of beauty than poorer people, which makes more sense than saying it's the internet's fault. The people with more Internet access also have more access to TV, movies, magazines, and…

Mine are that high. The pic is taken from a low stance.

I feel like it's some hipster thing. Which is why Terry Richardson makes sense. Imagine a bunch of hipsters talking about how print media is dying and how they only listen to vinyl, only see movies at the indie cinema, don't watch tv and only masturbate to real paper magazines, with all natural ethically sourced…

Maybe you have to be a straight guy or lesbian or bi to get it, but I don't even get how this is porn. It's just naked girls standing around. I always assumed playboy spreads were sexier.
