I have similar feelings. Do we continue to infantilize people who were young victims, saying that even though they are much older now they are permanently damaged? Or do we accept the possibility that they are making informed, consensual choices as an adult? I don’t have a good answer, and I think it’s probably…

At that time, and even now in some places, the most important thing was that if you knocked someone up you married them. Made an “honest woman” out of her and all. There would always be backhanded gossip, but society at large would forgive the transgression if it was righted in that way.

You can tell which brands are mineral-based if you look at the ingredients. Anything with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide as the active ingredients are mineral-based.

Yep, of the big bands from the era, he’s the only one left. Hang in there, Eddie!

Some radio station was playing “Say Hello 2 Heaven” and I was like, goddammit, I am not going to go into work crying!

I’ve tried a few of the other BR products I got as samples with my P50 orders. Nothing else really jumped out at me as worth the money.

Its really not that bad to get it. And worth it if it works for you!

I have been using the Lotion P50 for a couple of years now and it’s completely cleared my hormonal acne. No shame in using it or spending a bunch of money on it. It works.

It’s not a synonym for orange, but I’m partial to Donny Moscow.

Yikes. I also had a “what did she do to her faaaaaace?” moment.
