If you claim — as the people in these stories do — to already be in love with someone and everything they told you being true except for their physical appearance, yeah, shallowness in this case might be awfully damning. Because then you weren't really in love with the *person* and whatever their winning traits were,…

A totally fantastic project. I've been thinking about doing a library in my front garden.

"And it's sadly obvious that the women who have this thought pattern think this way because it's less painful than admitting that there are things they should and could be doing to improve their health but they just don't, so they convince themselves that healthy-weight women must use barbaric methods to achieve their…

"the point of the striptease was not to terrify Woman any more than any other rape method or threatened rape. the point was to give the men watching something to drool over. you don't REALLY not see that, right? "

"It continued to escalate until the Governor realized that raping Maggie wouldn't be the thing that would break her. Which says more about his character than hers,"
