@gherkinfiend: Me too! But I wear sweatpants to work, so I don't know if my sartorial choices ought to be emulated...

@sassyredhead: That dress is fantastic! Wish I could get one for myself.

I'm a little confused. I can see why extensive (e.g. cosmetic) screening for embryos might create problems for us as a species, but I don't understand why it's so bad on an individual level. If, hypothetically, we could choose hair and eye color, and (also hypothetically) we didn't have to worry about things like…

@sybann: To be fair, it's a legit use of the word. [www.thefreedictionary.com]

@Rosa Scandalosa: Depends. There's incitement. [en.wikipedia.org]

@LaComtesse: Ah, society. Yes. Society made me a cantakerous whore, so can I get a pass too?

@graciousplum: What? *Several* people have never purchased $1K+ shoes?

I want the second one for my wall. And the colors in #5 are stunning. I may have to borrow them for a design.

@jeepgirl...is on Wit's End Road: Maybe she tends to get cold?

@intime: Quite frankly, how do you know whether she is "fine" or not?

@slowpoke.r: I think you are absolutely correct. A silhouette is a two-dimensional, black-and-white representation that can be positioned in a 'fat-thin' continuum. Real bodies are not at all like that.

Can't wait to see what legal argument he'll make to support this one. Perhaps the "women aren't allowed to do shit I don't like" law?
