That's so weird! I remember when I was a 34 A and seeing lots of 32 As there and 36 and 38 As, but my size was always missing. Same now that I'm a B. Also, 32 would be considered small to normal sized shoulders. I guess that shows how much things vary by store!

I know that saying "But I have ____ friends!" is thought to be a bad comeback for accusations of racism/anti-semitism/_____, but what else are you supposed to say? If someone accused me of being homophobic, my first reaction would be to say, "But one of my best friends is a lesbian!" It's a hard thing to disprove, so…

It can be a struggle, and involves trying on lots of different brands. I'm always a 34 B, but each brand of bra fits me completely differently. Most of them gape terribly, even in a cup size down (which is too small in other areas), but there's usually one line in ten that fits me properly. If I wear a non padded bra,…

I would wear bikinis and tankinis to the beach when I was little, too! If only because one pieces made it SO HARD to go to the bathroom. Now that I'm an adult/teenager, I feel uncomfortable running around in what amounts to my underwear, so I go with the fashionable looking one pieces.

Sometimes padding isn't just about getting bigger boobs, but about having shapelier boobs, which is why I use padding. Padded bras are the only bras that allow me to have rounded breasts underneath clothes, and not two small, pointy triangles. It looks like I'm going bra-less when I wear a non-padded bra.

I'm 18, and I've worn a padded bra for years. They're the only kind of bras that keep my breasts from looking either pointy or completely flat (and pointy). My clothes fit better with them, I feel more confident and prettier, and honestly, i like having a pillow in front of my breasts. It's comfortable. I hate being…

Out of curiosity, how did you manage to feed your kids that way? I'm trying to work out the logistics in my mind, but I'm having trouble.

Wow. Did they not realize that going to the games by yourself would make you seem a hundred times worse than not going to the games at all? And why couldn't they make you just join a club instead? Sheesh.

Well, as I mentioned somewhere else waaaay down on this page, one of my best friends met her girlfriend via Tumblr, and it's going pretty much as well as a relationship can go. So, there's that.

I'm leaving on the 20th! I'm so excited, because my school is also my dream school (in Ohio, though), but still super, super nervous. I'm leaving behind my two puppies plus my boyfriend, which makes me sad, but hey! New friends! Interesting classes! I can't wait.

Your nails remind me of Kate Spade colors and patterns. I think they look fantastic!

This looks amazing!! I don't even normally like ombre hair that much, but you somehow managed to make it look like the ombre *should* be there, and the color is fantastic. You look beautiful!

And by "everything" I mean the biggest obstacle. This still sucks and seems like a big headache you get for being kind and responsible. Your family could at the very least be grateful to you, which it seems like they're not being.

I say good for you for throwing a fit! Classes and health insurance are too important to lose over what is basically logistics. I'm so glad everything worked out for you!

Congratulations, you have made me desperately want to be a librarian! For tonight at least, anyways :).

Could your grandmother maybe stay at your brother's during the day? Or maybe he could take public transportation, borrow a friend's car, or get a super-cheap old secondhand car really fast? Do you have an out of work friend who could babysit your grandmother at a discounted rate or for food?

Because it's the internet, it's easier to idealize him, and that could maybe be contributing to your feelings. However, one of my best friends met her girlfriend through tumblr, and they're practically engaged now (and not even 20).

Actually, I think what you're talking about is kind of the point of Slutwalk, at least as I understand it. Slutwalk is trying to say how ridiculous it is to use the word "slut" to define women based on how they dress, because what state of dress is too little or what sexual behavior is too much so subjective and…

I probably would have ignored it, had it not been the very first sentence of the article.

Ah! Reading it that way makes it much less bad. This is why I, too, love the comma.
