Woah, major herp derp on those comments about "Adele sized mannequins" by Telegraph. But anyway, also perhaps an increase because more retailers that order from that specific company are stocking greater amounts of UK 12+ clothing?

Obviously there is the POC issue with this show, but I do agree with you. As a 20-something my problems are pretty real to me (especially the money one) even if they're "first world problems" to everyone else. I've had a hard time reconciling my frustrations about topics like this, because I do understand that my…
For reference, what is the "average person", what exactly does the demographic consist of? Also, actual nutritious content is more important than straight calorie numbers, I only eat about 1000-1200 calories per day but I eat a very dense vegetarian variety of food (bordering on vegan) and take a multivitamin every…
I just got the best visual of a man leaping across a room like an animal. Thank you for that. Also glad that mine are never longer than 3ish days. I'm seriously hoping that when I start my egg donation cycle that the hormones don't ruin me forever as far as that goes...I would be SO mad.
Ergh, he was just a jerk, I should have broken up with him right when he revealed the reason that began our fight. He purposely put his phone in airplane mode instead of rain-checking with me and when I arrived at his place, assuming we were still going out dancing/drinking, he proceeded to ask multiple friends of his…
Ooh Helios, you just made me so glad my periods have always been super light, I would hate to have my pubes stewing in blood.
Totally agree with you. I think, however, the reason that the "women should go natural and anyone who doesn't is XYZ" gets tossed around so much is because (from the people in my age range that I've had this convo with) a lot of young women think that's what they have to do to be sexually appealing. I'm all for doing…
I once had a horrifying experience (which I now believe was this guy taking advantage of me being ridiculously drunk though I did want to have sex) where after a fight with a boyfriend we made up in time for his friends to arrive then continued drinking. After they left we started to have sex, at which point he…
I have also only heard it referenced in pop culture and the media, never from actually watching the show. I'm too busy keeping up with Teen Mom, duh!
If anybody ever used the phrase "average smoosh" to describe sex in real life I would probably puke right on them. Just saying.
Oh, I was just thinking that his jowls are a great argument for contraception...for him.
Well...I guess I'll just run down to the cupcake boutique now.
Protections absolutely have to be in place as there are far too many situations where children in any entertainment industry are at an obvious disadvantage, especially when they're surrounded by a glittery vision of being the next big thing. But yeah, photoshoots are where I would say the absolute majority of abuses…
I would agree with that, even as an adult working in the modeling industry you have power struggles in your career. I personally don't have a problem with underage models walking the runway though I do think there need to be limits on how many shows per day these girls are allowed to walk in. Runway offers the least…
Yep, all major fashion weeks happen twice per year basically back-to-back. New York is always first in February and Paris ends the season in March with London and Milan in between. Same goes for September through October.
Historically the reason we have mandated education in the US was that labor unions recognized if factories employed young teenagers they would accept lower wages, thereby damaging the bargaining power of the unions. The unions then pushed hard for mandated education through high school. So really, as much as we want…
She's pretty good with stern words, chis are smart dogs, so I guess I'll stick with that for now. My only hesitation to using a spray bottle is that we spend most of our time snuggled on furniture and I don't want her rubbing her dirty little face all over my comforter or couch to dry it off! I mean that…
Unfortunately she squeals and wiggles away if I do that, I also use the pointing method which seems to work pretty well from time to time, I find if I keep a running conversation with her she barks less. She's a needy little bug!
