To me, the WORST is when people say "she looks great...for her age" - why do you need to qualify this, why can't you just say "she looks great" and leave it at that, why qualify it as if it was a miracle that an older woman can be stunning?! I never understood the whole youth = beauty bullshit. To me, someone like

Thor gif!!!!! Though, sadly, the wrong brother for me... Um, sorry, what were we talking about...?

But, but... Why would you want to take away the need for salad dressing?!? That's the BEST PART of any salad!!!

Now if only all those American companies that solely ship to US addresses would extend the same courtesy to us poor Europeans deprived of their awesomeness. I'm looking at you, Urban Decay!

Lol, I hope so for you as well, awesome metabolisms are awesome for sure! But actually it is difficult for almost everyone to maintain - in fact, 95% of people who lose weight on a diet gain it back again because of that.

Thank you for this! I wanted to write a reply to this bullshit racist comment but you already said everything I wanted to say far better and more eloquently than I could have. The whole "all gypsies are thieves" stereotype is as old as Romani culture itself, and it mainly relies on a misunderstanding of how Romani

Losing weight is easy, keeping it off is an entirely different matter. Will she now eat chicken and watermelon for the rest of her life? If not, she will likely gain the weight back again. I once lost 30 pounds on Weight Watchers, now, 10 years later I am 20 pounds heavier than I was before Weight Watchers. I have

You honestly think only gay people remark on the Pope's bigotry here? I'm a heterosexual Catholic woman and I find it laughable that everyone is so enraptured by the Pope saying something that has been the official stance of the Church for a while now - being gay is not the sin in the eyes of the church, but daring to

This is poorly summarised, especially when it comes to the idea that the Pope is "totally cool" with being gay. Yes, he says BEING gay is not a sin, but he still considers openly living a gay "lifestyle" (as in: having a same-sex relationship and having sex with a person of the opposite sex, things that any

That was my first thought as well - why is this even featured here when the "boyfriend does my make-up" tag is a few years old by now (and even back then I'm not sure it would have been newsworthy)??? Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel, sometimes words fail me...

If you can spare another 7$ or so I highly recommend you also get Claire Weekes' "Complete Self-Help for Your Nerves." It was SO helpful to me when I went through a very, very bad case of anxiety and panic-attacks that caused me to have severe vertigo and become near-agoraphobic! Man, this shit really isn't fun at

Oil and banana for the hair?! Intriguing!!!

Overcomsumption of red meat MAY be linked to a greater risk of colon cancer, but there are even studies out there that have shown a possible link to certain cancers and eating vegetables, so really, if I were you I wouldn't take studies on nutrition too seriously unless you want to stop eating, period. Of course, that

My mother met the love of her life at age 61 and now, at 67, she is as happy and fulfilled as you can be - the two are ridiculously in love with each other, travel the world together, take care of each other in the most adorable ways (my "stepdad" rocks!). Whenever I obsess about ageing I think of how she had to wait

God yes, same here! All throughout my Phd I would usually drop into the office by 12, but hour wise would work just as long as any of the 8am people, and still I would get a snicker and a passive-aggressive "good MORNING!" whenever I walked in. Ugh!

I can assure you it is NOT an age thing - my dad is 67 and he is the owliest owl there ever was. And I am 34 and will most definitely NEVER magically turn into a morning person with advanced age!

...including the ones professing to be morning people. So...your point is...?

Yes and YES to that! I always found it deeply unfair that we poor night owls are forced to get up in the morning for our jobs, doctor's appointments, official document hunts, etc. My brain doesn't wake up until 11am at the earliest anyway, so why inflict this torture on my poor body?!? Once I take over the world and

Welcome to the dark side, we have plenty of chocolate and cookies!
