But I also think that is how she evolved in the books. I don't think that is just something they fixed in the movies. Katniss and Peeta see her reaction and that of the stylist team as a way of understanding that the Capitol may be less heartless than they originally thought.

What does it say about me that I wanted every single outfit of Effie's to be mine (and only the feathery dress of Katniss')? Did anyone else feel this way? Does this mean I'm all Capitol and would drink that stuff to make me puke so I can go on eating? Am I heartless?

That is why he did it too (I resisted, but my parents were sad about it). Although, I'm not sure I would say it was easy for him, since my sister-in-law isn't Catholic or Christian so they had to jump through extra hoops and were told their "marriage didn't have the dignity of a sacrament." It was all sort of the last…

Agreed. His Pre-Cana classes really turned him off of the church. I didn't help since I already stopped going to Catholic churches. He recently stopped too.

My brother asked that at his Pre-Cana class. They told him you weren't allowed to use natural family planning "with a contraceptive point of view," whatever that means.

Here she is: Pam Stenzel, only in the video she had a different haircut (and I just found that too: Sex Has A Price Tag - UGH! Could she be any worse?!).

THIS! If you can't talk to your kid about sex, you are GUARANTEEING that they won't be able to talk to you. Even talking about it awkwardly is better than nothing.

I think we had to watch her video. I tried looking for her on youtube, but unfortunately, there seem to be a bunch of speakers like this. i know I'd remember her though, because she talked in a REALLY weird voice.

We got this one too! I'm not a scientist, but even my high school brain was sort of like...but doesn't that still apply when you're married?! This doesn't make sense....

I think the most disturbing thing about sex ed at my Catholic high school was that we were forced to watch a movie where-in the pro-abstinence speaker was the child of rape, and said that she was for abstinence only education because it was THE ONLY WAY TO BE SURE NOT TO GET PREGNANT (even though, as I mentioned, she…

I can TOTALLY understand the sentiments in letter 3, but having watched my bff be that girl time and again (I've felt this way, but not acted on it), I would say DON'T GO DOWN THAT ROAD! Not only is he probably going to avoid answering your question at all costs, it is most likely going to make it impossible to then…

We got in a fight because he didn't like Love Actually. I NEVER thought he'd like it, if I'm honest, I just really wanted to watch it with him. But he called it stupid and I burst into tears and told him he was ruining everything that I liked and I don't appreciate being called stupid. Anyway, we just got married, so…

I was hoping she'd call him Joe Scrooge-pack.

This isn't going to be a popular opinion, but as someone who is utterly obsessed, i am SO excited! I don't care that it isn't going to be as good as the movie. How could it be?! I don't think any of the plays I've seen are as good, but I still love them all, even the high school versions.

Thank you! Even if he really did just hate "homosexual acts," that doesn't explain why he thinks it's fine to discriminate against gay people in the work place. It is such bullshit. If you just hate the acts, and they aren't being done at work (presumably), then there is no reason to prevent a work place…

For the ultra lazy: wrap some bubble wrap around your waist (I guess you could be slutty and do this over undies, but I assume you'll have clothes on). When people ask what you are say "I'm fragile." BOOM!

I agree with you, but what I don't understand is, aren't most jobs "beneath" us? I have a great office job at a big fancy law firm (I'm not a lawyer), but much of what I do is still not challenging. The new associates are often only being challenged to work as many hours as possible, but not necessarily in an…

Since you can prescribe meds, when you know that there is a medicine that is just being renamed so it isn't able to be generic, can't you still write the prescription for the original medication? This is a real question, as I'm not sure how this works, but it seems like that should still be possible, shouldn't it?

I don't think you could possibly be more sick of hearing about millenials than the millenials themselves.

I know. They are the most confusing and irrational thing ever. It's like the idea of a Scientologist becoming a psychiatrist so that they can then say they are morally against psychiatry and refuse to provide you services. It makes zero sense.
