I just hate the term diet. If you are going to change how you eat, aim to change it for good. Diet implies that it is temporary. What helps me choose healthier food is to have a goal other than losing weight. I cut out sugar because it is bad and addictive. Then, after a while, I get used to it and sugary foods taste

Crap. Apparently Urban Decay tests on animals too. There goes all my eyeshadow.

Yea, they were removed from PETA's cruelty free list. Apparently some companies aren't completely disclosing their testing policies: http://www.news.com.au/lifestyle/fash…
Companies will say "not tested on animals except required by law" the problem being they manufacture in China where it all IS required by law.
I was

I'm totally a lipstick girl. I have nice, full lips and I like to accent them. Often it will be the only makeup I put on-although now I'm becoming partial to a swipe of blush and bit of mascara.

I used to love MAC. I have red vivaglam that they discontinued as well as hang up ( cremesheen), cravin (amplified) and Goes

I love purple as a lip color. I think you could do it, perhaps a light purple? My suggestion is to go to a department store (like Macy's) or Sephora, a place that will let you try on a few lipstick shades. Sure, you can end up splurging on a tube of lipstick, or you can keep that shade in mind and find the cheap

Whoah, what was in your high school health class? Cuz yours sounds way better than mine was. We didn't learn much of anything about sex and sexuality (except STI's WILL KILL). I think the most I learned about the female/male reproductive system was this awkward video we watched in 5th grade, but that was pretty

I saw her at Bonnaroo, and she has a really great voice-stage presence, not so much, not yet. She was fun to listen to and it looked like she was having fun, minus apparent mic problems which kind interfered with the whole set. I was also thrown off that she was on a stage, which is for bigger crowds, instead of in a

Why have I not listened to Oh No Fiasco before this? They sound awesome!

Its a well accepted theory in psychology. Implicit attitudes can be difficult, but not impossible to study. It is often measured using the IAT, implicit association task. It measures a persons automatic associations. The test has been shown to have predictive validity, test-retest reliability, internal consistency and

Please explain. What is so absurd about implicit attitudes? Do you not agree that many people have them? That they are based on the stereotypes that are prevalent in our culture? That many people likely have these biases?

Its called implicit racism (or aversive racism). Our culture has a bias toward light skin and this bias can show up in our actions, even if we aren't conscious of it. Even minorities can have biases against others within their minority, that's how prominent these ideals are in our society. Although, it's not only a

I agree with you and Martha_Jones21. White people (myself included) need to be more active for all injustices against black people (and other races t0o). We can't just be present for this one case, then go back to our white neighborhoods, feeling like we've made a difference.
It really comes off as. . .insensate when

This is a perfect summation of my feelings at the end of a week of terrible news.

redtube and affiliates are pretty basic, but after some searching you can find things. Also my friend says orgasmsxxx and dane jones are good sites, although I haven't checked them out myself yet.

Academic Men Explain Things To Me http://mansplained.tumblr.com/?c=upworthy
Awesome Tumblr, quite relevant here I think. I'm not sure if anyone else mentioned it. I did a quick glance and didn't see anything.

That's what I thought. Having worked in a couple restaurants, I just thought-how little he must think of the people who work there. Then I realized, he's probably so self centered, he didn't think of anyone else at all.

Maybe she thinks she's in a different kind of court. . .

I agree with you there. I read a post on reddit the other day in the PUA section (hate reading) and came across a post talking about doing a face like that (they called it the "underlook") said it totally had the power to seduce women. Or creep them out, in Bieb's case.

bunnies can be litter trained! Mine very reliably uses her litter box and has only had marking issues once or twice.
