Are Anderson Cooper and his 20-somethings consenting adults? Yes? Once they hit 18, it may not be the best idea in the world but it's legal, consensual, and something we shouldn't judge.

it's apparently not a rumor:

Yup, pretty racist/classist urban legend too— like Limonjello and Vagina.

You know, I'm the first person to take Xtians to task when they do something dumb (I'm equal opportunity) and though I thought her constant praying was a bit ridiculous, I really liked how sweet her daughter was (and that the judges commented on it!) and how the mom really seemed to want what was best for her…

I can't imagine wearing open toes with pantyhose unless I were doing it with an opaque tight. In the winter. Who wears pantyhose (the sheer nude tights) anymore?

trust me, they need a wakeup call for many things BEFORE the glass steps, sadly.

Clarisonic. Seriously. It changed my skin life.

and they have people going up and down them with kettlebells. Recipe for tragedy!

no kidding. it's not just stupid muscleheads and elliptical injuries.

Yeah, they shatter and then they tape them up, because they haven't shattered completely. It's still freakin' scary.

My gym has one. They shatter constantly. It's kind of scary.

yeah. I look at my thinner friends, same age, and they are all showing more crow's feet/laugh lines than I am. I'm overweight— not morbidly so, but could stand to use a few pounds.

neither mormons or catholics are considered christians by many fundies.

true! but why are only "Samanthas" able to be sexually up-front? It kind of also implies "promiscuous". I wish "sexually knowledgable" and "promiscuous" weren't always so synonymous.

And now any woman who is up-front, open and can discuss sexuality (or sex toys!) is called a Samantha. sigh.

This is exactly what I was thinking.

There's a difference between "it doesn't pay well" to "it doesn't even cover minimum wage".

I can see that leading to lots of mis-turned pages; one of the reasons I was distrustful of the BB Playbook when I got a demo at CES.

It would be great if a) stars were of all sizes and b) those who were of more diverse sizes did the same sort of thing.

You're welcome. My mom was adopted in 1951 and I was adopted in 1980, so it tells what were probably both of our stories.
