I thought it was Miley Cyrus at first before realizing her hair is short now. Her lips were never that thick. My 5th grade self is sad that Ask Ashley is in such bad shape. She was supposed to take over the world!

It's not mean in that her jawline is square and as she gets older her face becomes more angular, which she says she likes, but I find her strong features attractive and her curves balance that out. But beauty is subjective.

Exactly. It pains me that people may not take a really valid point seriously because she didn't capitalize all of her Is. There are still people who won't take what she says seriously no matter what, which is her point, but I can't help but think it undermines her.

Well said. Now if only she could capitalize all of her Is. The writer in me hates that but the substance in what she's saying is there.

I'm glad there's some progress going on. I remember shopping for a new game besides DonkeyKong, Zelda or Mario Bros in the game section, which had rows upon rows of games that all looked the same. They all had some woman wearing barely anything with boobs the size of her head. But I tried to convince my parents to…

Right, I understand what it means applied to a man, but when people use it for women, which sometimes happens, I don't get it. And it's usually used along with terms like "classic beauty" and "all-American look." Sometimes it's just a "clean, fresh look" or something. But I rarely see it used in reference to women of…

Not calling racist, BTW. I know you're referring to People.

I hate that term, along with "clean cut" and "All-American." Um, please explain what makes her clean-cut or all-American? Oh, right, it's difficult to explain because you know it's racist.

Yeah I don't know many blue-eyed people. Brown, hazel or green but blue I don't see often. And I'm one of those weirdos who really pays attention to eye color. It's probably better to have brown eyes since I heard they're least likely to develop cataracts.

I think she's beautiful but as others said, not someone I would not be able to take my eyes off of. I've seen her beauty pretty often. If I ran into a woman with the face and figure of Salma Hayek it would be hard for me to look away. Or Penelope Cruz. I once heard someone say she (Hayek) was "too ethnic" for him and…

It always amazes me when people assume The New York Times is a bastion of liberalism when its paper published the rape article I'm sure commenters are familiar with. You know, the one about how a child was asking for gang rape. After it happened, a couple men from the paper came to a forum to talk about editorial…

I appreciate that you're being more respectful than others. I just think the artist wasn't necessarily mature in his response either, but others have said so. Peace out.

If that is the line she recited then she must have gone to school in the 70s because none of my high school friends recited it. My friends had an "itty bitty titty committee" that I could not join but desperately wanted to be in! Nope, women want to be thin and have late Bs or early Cs but I don't know any who wish…

Wow. If you think women aren't naturally competitive...and not with each other for male approval but for everything...you have your head stuck up your ass. Women and men aren't as differently wired as you seem to think. I'm sorry you have such a lack of imagination not to mention lack of female friends. No, none of…

Okay, I see you're deliberately not trying to understand. The porn star physique I was referring to was not for men it was for women. Think Silvia Saint. Mainstream porn, and by mainstream, I mean easily accessible and free on the internet, does not usually show men most women would like to watch. Usually they are not…

I don't understand why you think women's idea of a hot guy=emotionally broken. You think all men who aren't gymrats are emotionally broken? If that's the case, I'm not sure where to start with you. A lot of women find Ryan Gosling attractive and he's not flabby, he's toned and has some muscle, but his muscles are not…

You don't get it. It's not about taking out all sexuality. I'm a very sex-positive person who thinks women should be able to walk around topless on a summer day without being slut shamed if they want to. But the hot male is often not the pumped up Mr. Universe image of men in video games, it's a more subtle look…

Yes, totally don't get the outrage. It's silly to even cover a female child's breasts and stomach in the first place. I had teachers get angry at me for not buttoning up my shirts high enough at a mere 7 years old, actually having them act huffy as if I were a child slut. I mean, what the hell? There is a point where…

I can't say that girls are always as physically abusive but certain groups at my middle school were. There were the Mean Girls who used psychological torture, by laughing and using hushed verbal insults and then there were the poorer girls from "broken homes" who pushed and threatened injury, and in my poor…

I think being told they're being told they'll never understand women's feelings as a way to dismiss them. It's a great excuse to say you're not being insensitive, it's just that women are too exotic and complex for the human male to understand. Men who say this generally tend toward misogynist statements in general,…
