Once upon a time I used to watch The View a lot. It's not my thing anymore, but I have a soft spot for it, you could say. I like to watch on a super rare occasion for nostalgia reasons of a sort. Anyway, I tried with this new "rebrand" and it is all just...off. Even the visual rebranding is wrong. I made it about 3…

wow. Creepy.
My sister once made a comment about TS and all the dating. And I was all, "Um, if I were a young single hot rich pop star, you better believe I'd be making the rounds ...and loving it! I gotta list of men I'd spend a weekend with!" She gave me a scandalised look. I responded, "and if you say otherwise you're a…
Holy shit. This Hale woman is straight up nutballs.
My situation is similar. I do like to manage my finances, but it's so much more complicated, in every sense of the word, when it comes to incorporating a different income and spending, joint vs individual wants/needs/habits. I am a more responsible spender AND he makes more. It is all "ours" 100%, but I feel weird…
YES, this! Gaaacccck!
Well, I still ask "if" I can buy stuff (ok, over a certain amount JUST for me on a whim). But it's more a politeness an an obligation. I know I can buy it! But the money is both of ours now. Asking recognises that and respects that money out of my pocket is money out of his. That being said, he'd never say no either.…
I picked a couple of things I cared about/found fun (e.g. dress, venue pick) and let my MIL do everything else (with obvs veto power retained ;). She was thrilled, the wedding was great and "letting go" of so much up front means it kept temptations to get weirdly obsessive about shit that won't matter in a year, to a…
I'll wait for 20min if I have no word, then I'm out. If you're at least respectful enough to call/text and let me know what's keeping you (and it's not a regular thing with you) I'll wait. But not letting me know? NOPE!
Thank you! I don't know shit about anything, but I know that wasn't tweaking! Garh!
I see some people's issues with it and, as mentioned, it had occurred to me. Then again, it also feels disingenuous to totally isolate desirable body images (whatever they be for a person) from sexual attractiveness. It shouldn't be what it's *all* about, but they are intimately related.
yes, totally ( ...But my GOD it stuck in my head!!!)
One acquaintance friend left designing for I-can't-remember-whom (but it was a big deal name, IMHO) to now designing underwear for Fruit of the Loom. When I met her I was of course like, "I can't believe you left [whoever the hell it was!] for Fruit of the Loom!" And she shrugged and said, "that's the dirty fashion…
edited because it think my comment was not that interesting, actually!
And I just ran across the episode where Aiden takes Carrie to his cabin in Suffering, NY and I was just like, "She's such a lame asshole!" Wearing stilettos to the cabin and screaming her lungs out at the sight of a squirrel. Just, UGH!
I can see that. That much had occurred to me previously but I didn't feel it was saying *only* because boys like it so I let it go. But to whatever extent it does say/mean/encourage that, yeah, fuck that particular noise!
What sexist bs? (I don't doubt, because my gut suspects it's there based on some of her other songs but examples don't spring to mind)
