So instead of finding ways to get her resources for caring for her children, they... strip her of more resources by throwing her in jail? This makes sense.

The Dog thing is out of control. Dogs on planes and subway cars. Billions spent on dog medicine. That people love their dogs so much is a sign of how alienated we are from other human beings in our culture. Nobody loved their dogs as much as the SS loved the shepherds.

I totally see your point and mull over this all the time, I'm all for a woman controlling her own sexuality. Nicki paid for her ass and like, say a weave, she should be able to show it off whenever she wants to. It is her body. But is a woman controlling her sexuality ever out of the realm of the male gaze?

This is really dealing a blow to my belief in the reasonableness and modernity of the Mormon Church.

I'm guessing she said "nerds" because "soulless, amoral assholes" while accurate, isn't polite.

From a 2009 NY Times article, citing a defense department report:

Opting not to have cosmetic surgery is not called "letting yourself go."

Sexually objectifying and commodifying yourself the the point where you willfully enter a contest in which you prance around on stage and men judge the attractiveness of your body in a bikini and high heels = bad

Ermm, yeah, cue the sound of The Point whooshing over many heads at once...
