"I tend to see all negativity and criticism as a good thing because people are at least talking about me, so they must care in some way."

It's strange how a healthy person @NefariousNewt: That's how it started with me, but then the weekends started to become shitty, too. It sucks, because I've never been like this before, and now it's like someone just turned off the feel-good valve in my brain. The Lexapro works wonders, though.

They even airbrushed out her moles and freckles. I had no idea that this much PhotoShopping was going on in the world.

@PetiteGal: Yes, the eggs age and become unvieable. It doesn't really matter if you're 40 with a full set of eggs because most of them work. Freezing is an option, but I don't think that most women realize how expensive all this stuff is. Invitro has a very small success rate for women over 40. Most of the…

so many awkward body postures, so little time

It looks like she's going commando.

My husband is so in love with her it's disgusting. She's so adorable, I can't hold it against him.

@gigisinatra: zing! how very relevant of you

@EdnasEdibles: Jesus that's funny. You just made my day.

@and Begorrah: I totally agree with the dislike of "you look so thin" comments. I also dislike, "you look great!" because I have friends who say this no matter what I look like, and because I resent that they think I need that kind of constant ego boost about the way I look. I'm average size and shape, neither…

I agree about the hypocricy of the magazine, but saying Monsanto is somehow better because it "offers some benefit to society by spending money on the research and development necessary to make the food supply more efficient" is a little naive, I think. Just ask a Monarch butterfly.

@summerwheatley: I was just going to ask if anyone actually knew someone who got a brazillian. I thought that "trend" was just for celebutants.

The "power" of going bare? How about the power to refuse being made to look pre-pubescent? The power of being a real woman, with a real adult body?

@AllanaSmithee: Yes, like Kitty Genovese. Of course, I wasn't murdered.

When I was in high school a friend and I were assaulted by a "gang" of girls. It was awful. But the worst part was that there were a lot of passersby that did nothing to help us (we were in a public park). At one point I called out to a middle-aged man who was walking with his wife to please call the police. He told…

I think she's pretty adorable. Even though this outfit is a bit of a miss for me, I admire her chutzpah. Reminds me of when I was 15 and wore ties, high-tops and lots of buttons - and short, short hair. Let's hear it for the short hair.

@melinderr: whenever I see him I think of his line in Walking and Talking, "Do we have to listen to this vagina music?"

@blackbirdfly: I really think it's the weight. An extra 5 pounds can take 10 years off your face - that is, if you're starting from the weight of a hollywood actress.

Oh, my god. They totally got me. I read that post with utter despair and a churning stomach. I turned to the comments section expecting to see a bunch of outraged readers, but clearly I'm not as bright as the rest of you.

What's up, Doc?
