I look like this, body-wise. I don't really diet or exercise, I have no eating disorders. Just a high metabolism. It was a beast when I was a child and teen and other children would make fun of me for being too thin, too tall, too gangling, and without the curves of "real women," as though I had a choice about it.…

No. Freedom of speech means that the government can't limit what people say. Private organizations can do whatever they want with their own property via user agreements and contracts. Facebook can kick people off for violating their user agreements. Companies can fire their employees for using foul language and…

I think "What's your excuse?" as a self-affirming slogan pretty much explains everything you need to know. It inherently places the value of her appearance in comparison to others. Her appearance is impressive and special not because it makes her feel good and she likes it, but because she looks like that and other…

The problem is not with the chubby lady in lace. It's with you.

You are conflating biological sex with sexual orientation and gender identification. Here is a primer on the differences between biological sex, sexual orientation, gender identification, and so on that might help to clear things up. http://www.hrc.org/resources/entr…

I can't tell if you are asking a serious question or not, but I'll respond as if you are anyway. Gender has always been fluid. Acceptance of that fluidity is what is either relaxed or rigid. I'd say that now acceptance is more fluid than it has been in the recent past for mainstream Western society, but is still…

Maybe just confused?

I'm really sorry your family has had to go through that. It's not fair. Similar things have happened to members of my own family who own small to moderate-sized businesses. The stringent rules and audits my own company goes through makes trying to process anything so time consuming and annoying. But honestly, having…

These lines are saying: "look at my crotch. LOOK AT IT."

Same. This is kind of why I don't want to ever be famous. I'm terrified of the photos old acquaintances will dredge up of me. This photo is fairly benign, but the age of the internet makes fame frightening to me — how much personal information can instantly be out there for everyone to see, and shared so easily.

Well, sure. I didn't say who was going to clean them, just that it looks like a cleaning nightmare. Break out the toothbrushes.

I agree, I think it rounds out his arc a little bit and makes Gale more complicated. His passionate desire to join the revolution is established early. That will highlight where he differs from Katniss [SPOILERS]: he is more willing to do anything to bring down the Capitol, i.e. the Capitol bombs, which basically puts…

Is there still no mention of Peeta's robot leg? I guess it's not imperative to the story and can be edited out without much harm done to the main plot, but darn.

Cool in theory, but I'm just thinking about having to clean them. The dirt all those little crevices... *shiver*.

I had the same reaction. Ugh.

That's cute. No doubt he still thought you were a genius for knowing how to search on Google, even if you didn't know the answer yourself. I know that I get a lot of praise just for being able to Google something quickly without taking a half hour to find it.

That made me raise my eyebrows as well.
