GAHHHHHHHHH As a plus sized women who actually has a waist, when I want to buy clothes and look at ‘plus sized’ high street collections, it’s all ‘baggy tunics’ and blouses. On an average day, my clothing makes me look easily larger than I actually am by virtue of the fact that ‘plus size’ clothing for average and…

Exactly. Based on previously linked interview transcripts, it seems as though Alexis preferred to identify as both male and female depending on Alexis’ feelings at the time. So Alexis’ brother was reflecting that dichotomy in referring to Alexis as both his ‘brother’ and ‘sister’. When I read the brother’s statement,…

Exactly. This is not an event that is exclusive to countries like India, either. It happens all over the world!

This happened to a woman in my home town, literally outside the building I work in. This kind of thing makes me so angry!

I tend to agree - although this eye for an eye justice is mainly used in Sharia law https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/mar… and despite the fact that I think it IS right to make the perpetrator of a crime suffer through the same experience, you inevitably get into the ‘Merchant of Venice’ type situation where the…

Agreed - you hear one of the tracks used, and your mind immediately goes to GotG regardless of whether the original track was released 20 or 30 years ago.

Borderline? I’m pretty much there with this tbh...

The hypocrisy is strong in this one. Especially for someone who was most likely not a pure Native American...

Without confirmation from the directors and script writers etc, I’d have to say I agree that this character was a deliberate ‘Boy George’ type - which would be consistent with the period in which the movie is set. The fact that the actor portrays the character without a Gender or Sexual Preference bias I think is…

I always cringe when people bring out the children to sing happy songs. It’s so cheesy and BAAAAAD

Unfortunately, the answer to that sign is going to be ‘Nope, because it was premeditated’. They have demonstrated intent... The defence for Brock would argue ‘stupid kid made a mistake in a drunken moment of idiocy’ and ‘it wasn’t premeditated’.

I would tend to agree - a 17 or 18yo (or even someone in their early 20's) having consented (albeit statutory rape by law) sex with a 15yo, is not even in the same league as Paedophiles, and you’re right: they should not be handled the same way, and I feel that by ‘easing’ punishments for these ‘lesser’ crimes, the…

Exactly this! I love me a good soft scarf, and when it’s pissing down with rain, I’d like to wrap it around my head like my Nan used to do in the 50's and 60's. But nope: Appropriation. Mocking Muslim women. Blah blah. No, I just want to cover my fucking hair because water dripping down my neck is rank.

I know, right? As a society we should totally wear more head-related clothing. I love me a good Hat and I adore those structural African head wraps. I totally think we need to revive the hat-wearing culture!

Women with dark skin can pretty much get away with any colour at all - Everything from Pastel pales right up to Neons - I think it’s the fact that the colours work so well against their dark skin. A pale skinned person would get ‘washed out’ by brighter shades, or they ‘clash’ with hair/skin. I’ve literally NEVER seen…

I clicked on this article exclusively to drool over and admire Lupita in that GLORIOUS dress... The pale shade against the contrast of her beautiful dark skin, the subtle shimmer, the simplicity and beauty of the outfit. GAH! I can’t even.... *drool*

If the skill of a ‘medium’ is based in asking subtly probing questions and observing body language and facial indicators, then you could arguably prove or disprove the validity of a medium by removing their visual cues - don’t allow them to see the face of the individual they are ‘reading’. Have the individual prepare…

I had literally never heard of this before you mentioned it, but that WOULD account for some weird shit that happens in my parents house!

I like to think of myself as open-minded on the subject of what happens after we die. As an Atheist, logically I feel the answer is ‘nothing: you die’, but I’m open to the idea that our scientific understanding of how life (and death) works is limited by our technology and the capacity of our minds to comprehend. So…

It’s the ungreying! I’m hoping it was based on my contributions to discussions on the particular blogs that started following me rather than a mass action.
