My sister and I both have favorite holiday made for TV movies that the other hates. Nevertheless, every year we eagerly wait for them to show up on ABC Family's 25 Days of Christmas so we can watch them together.

She also played Janis in an off-Broadway musical about her!

Hm. I like Hilary Duff and I loved the Lizzie McGuire movie, but didn't Disney do the TV-star to pop star thing way back in the day with Annette Funicello? I don't think that's something Hilary Duff invented. Plus, Miley Cyrus is a whole different kettle of fish - she was on a show about being a super famous pop-star,…

The point is that it doesn't matter how it feels. I can acknowledge that it is personally devastating and can have a huge effect on a woman's psyche. But the fact of the matter is that women are not losing out on jobs or having their children taken away from them because they don't have a "womanly" figure. Thin women…

I actually didn't realize that dating sites had options like that. All I had ever seen was the state your preference type thing, where basically you could choose to check or not check every race, every body type, every religion, etc.

I think the people who have a problem with it are people who literally don't have curves - boyish figures with no boobs, no hips, no butt, etc. It is hurtful to be given the impression that society does not think you have a "womanly figure." I get it.

World's most perfect comment. I hope people read it and take it to heart.

So basically Aziz Ansari likes to write fanfic in which Tom is a Mary Sue.

:(

That's not the overwhelming sentiment on this site. And you'll certainly find way more women on this site fantasizing about, say, Charlie Hunnam (there was a post about how hot he is earlier today) rather than Kevin James. No one denies that we all have our own standards of attraction.

I actually got turned away from a game once because of my purse. It was a normal sized purse and the guard would not let me in. I had come on the Metro so there was no where for me to put it. I get gifted one set of season tickets a year, and so it was my one chance to go to the game that year, and my choices were…

I don't think you're going to find anyone disagreeing with you on that.

This is a great response to him that I didn't have the energy to try to do myself. I kind of got the feeling that no matter what anyone said, he wasn't going to listen, and he proved that to be true. Thanks for fighting the good fight though! :)

Ugh, is that really what it is? I had heard it was a "safety" issue, but my first thought was "they don't want people sneaking in food."

Thank you for an awesome response! It's particularly awesome to hear from a straight guy when a bunch of them seem to have come on here to pull the "you're being too sensitive" and "but men are the ones who WATCH football, obviously we should cater to them!" cards.

!!! I used to do this too, and it sucks. I would do really crazy stuff like order a pizza and when I opened the door to the delivery guy, pretend I was talking to someone else in the apartment so he wouldn't think I was going to eat it all by myself.

I think you're maybe taking the white person thing a little too literally. I am a completely flat-chested woman, so I understand how it sucks for us in society. Obviously it would be great if we did not judge women's bodies AT ALL. But being flat-chested does not affect your life in the same serious ways that being…

Here are some other things a thin woman is not allowed to say: “It takes willpower to stay slim”; “Of course it would be easier just to eat anything I wanted but I don’t” ; “Yes, I'm often hungry midmorning but I wait until lunch-time.” And here, above all, is what we must never say: “I prefer being slim.”

Yup, I was coming here to make exactly this point. Sure, I'll buy that as a white person it sucks to be called cracker, or have people assume that you're preppy, or whatever else people like to talk about when they talk about reverse racism. It's not right for people to do that and they should stop. But it's sort of…

Yeah the purse restriction is crazy and ridiculous. And in my opinion, a fairly obvious attempt by the stadiums to force people to spend more money inside on random stuff that they would otherwise have in their purse.
