Yeah, I already said that. Nobody is saying that you look like a little girl because you shave. But hairlessness does signal prepubescense in humans, so it's not really a stupid connection. It's the immediate desire to attack people for making that connection that bothers the shit out of me, along with poor analogies

So is jumping all over someone who hasn't actually expressed the sentiment you have such an obvious aversion to. The OP is not saying you look like a little girl because you prefer to shave. Biologically, the lack of pubic hair DOES signal prepubescence, which is why so many people make that connection.

There's no need to be so nasty about it, the OP stated she didn't mean it to offend anyone and wasn't trying to tell you how you should manage your own body hair, only that she personally found it difficult to approach mentally for both men and women.

Depends on how the rest of their face looks and how old they are, but sometimes, yeah.

Yeah, I also don't see anything abnormal happening. She doesn't look too thin, her hair looks totally fine and her clothing is a little emo. Sounds like a lot of people I know from 15-30. She can't be a Disney star for her entire life.

It's okay, I'm still waiting for flying cars.

That we have a recessive trait for hair color? Why yes, that is true.

Probably an "Irish temper" thing. Personally, I believe my bad temper comes from having to deal with the type of people who insist my hair color is anything more than microevolution, but it's just a hypothesis.

Ugh, and then redheads are either virgin gingers or sexual bombshells. Stop with the weird sexualization of me based on my hair color, thanks!

Can we please use anthropologically correct terminology? For example, providing the actual time period that Frost's work is centered on, which is the Late Glacial Maximum, not the "Ice Age". Not difficult to retype that when the Discovery article lays them out for you. Also, caveman is an obnoxious misnomer.

Neither will I, but I have some weird food pickiness that people always obnoxiously question me about. I swear, I actually am allergic to eggplant! It's a nightshade! I do love my Brita filter though.

Cool! Another PA person! Which side of the state are you on?

Yeah, I hate to buy bottled water, my Brita does a pretty good job of filtering out any weird tastes, but I also prefer my water to be very cold. Philly also has a good filtration system so I don't notice any metallic taste so much as just traces of chlorine. Yum to home brewed iced tea!

City water and bottled/filtered water actually have pretty distinct tastes to me, but that's not the actual flavor of the water, it's the chemicals added into it. Well water also can taste a bit sulfuric or metallic depending on where you live.

I have a friend who actually does not like the taste of plain old water. I kid you not. She drinks a lot of soda and those gross flavored waters to this day, and we've known each other since the age of 14! I drink water almost exclusively, and when I want something flavored I just soak tea in ice water or have

Ugh, "for all intensive purposes" instead of "for all intents and purposes".

Florida: suddenly she's not YOHO NO MO.

Haha, I just type "how tall is X" into google and it's the first result every time!

SJP is 5'3", Jen is 5'6" and Justin is 5'9". But in SATC I think SJP is probably wearing 3-4" heels.

That actually happened to me last December, I was meeting up with one of my girlfriends and we got separated somehow, luckily another few friends of mine showed up at the same bar/club and upon noticing that something was wrong with me (as people who have seen me drunk many times) they sent me home. I don't remember
