Yeah I don't get that. "Oh you must be such a total slut because..your genetics/hormones made your boobs grow big?" :raise: Like staring I can sort of understand (not that I condone it) but the comments and poo poo are just so nonsensical (and gross).

I also don't really get the obsession with having big boobs either. They can be kind of uncomfortable even at a relatively average size, so gently caress that.

this kind of fetishism is cultural and seriously regressive. fashion shapes the objectification of women in the culture hugely and the broad strokes of fashion have always followed the waxing and waning of political cultures. breast shapes and sizes in pornography have changed in accordance with fashion, and the only reason why burlesque and pin-up culture was able to have a resurgence is because of people's ability to express and consolidate a new kind of mainstream over-arching sexuality on the internet, and even then the culture is usually hella regressive

Only if there's a full sleeve tattoo edition for Halloween or something too. It's not always my thing, but it can be delicious on the right arms and with the right tattoos.

True, I usually enjoy everything on a decent looking guy. But those are the body parts that really get my attention for some reason. Good to hear I'm not as weird as I thought, since I usually hear ladies talking about butts all the time. Which are nice too, but not my favorite thing.

Re: cunnilingus - In my experience if you feel the need to brag about your skill in anything a lot, you're probably not as good at it as you think you are.

I've said this before but I like short guys: they generally try harder and are more charming. Tall guys are just like "I'm tall :smug:" and never had to develop a personality. But I can't date guys who weigh less than me, that's just weird.

Re: body parts, I agree with Anne Whateley that QUADZ are where it's at. Also weeds out the bros who never do squats. But I also have a thing for super skinny rocker types with those tiny flat butts. They're so cute.

Yeah I personally don't give a poo poo about a guy's height and really don't get it when I hear other women who are like "Well I don't care how great his personality is, he's not 6'4"' or something like that. But I'm 5'3" so I've really only run into one dude who was shorter than me in my entire adult life.

Short guys just make me self-conscious, because both of us are aware that they're getting a face full of my boobs.

Skinny rocker guys are my favorite, I can't help it. And they usually have nice hands, too.

I'm glad it worked out well, I was pulling for you!

My anniversary is tomorrow, and I'll probably pick up cupcakes from the place that did our wedding cake/cupcakes. The special flavors of the day aren't awesome, though -- chocolate orange (which my husband would like, but blech) and banana cream pie. It's ok because they have like, 15 more flavors, I was just secretly hoping they would have our wedding cake flavor.

I have to do homework all day. I do not want to do homework all day, you guys.

I almost never wear eyeshadow anymore, just liner and mascara. This morning I put on a little shimmery gold stuff, and it's really nice and surprisingly subtle. I fear I'm about to fall down yet another cosmetics rabbit hole.

It's not a pit, it has very nice, easily tread stairs. That are really easy to run down, and slightly harder to run back up, because gravity is against you.

Get yourself a good, old-fashioned Joy of Cooking cookbook, preferably an older edition. The recipes are by no means ground-breaking, but it's a great reference.

Seriously, this. I don't think/talk about cooking much, I just do it, and one of the reasons I can just do it is because my grandmother gave me her second-oldest copy of this book when I moved out on my own after high school and kept showing up at her house hungry.

Are there any pitfalls I should know about before I start shopping on etsy

Price shop whatever it is against non-handmade versions, if there's a cheaper version that serves the purpose, don't buy from Etsy just because it's handmade, unless you really want to. Use Google's Reverse Image Search, lots of times the resellers don't bother to take new pictures. Say, for example, you find a tiny ring with a small cat silhouette on it. Go search on eBay, Amazon, Google, and maybe Ali Baba for the keywords. I do a lot of gift exchange things, all year long, and about 75% of the 'handmade' things people put on their lists from Etsy are available on eBay for less than a third of the Etsy price.

There's a site called Zibbet that is basically "Etsy, but they actually kick resellers off." There's also Stanfordrow.com for handmade clothing, no resellers. StoreEnvy.com has less resellers, but they're not entirely free of them. StoreEnvy also doesn't charge sellers to list an item or take a percentage of what they earn, which I like.

QUESTIONS for the ladies: is it weird that men are so obsessed with boobs given they are just another body part i mean

is it like if you were all about the elbows and there were MENZ ELBOW MAGS for women with hot studs provocatively baring their surgically smoothed arm joints or w/e? becuase i guess I would find that weird were that the case

ACTUALLY that was the only question i had.

I'm a lady who likes both dudes and ladies, and it's not exactly a foreign concept to women, liking body parts. It's really loving annoying when anyone isn't polite about what they like, though. There's a difference between sneaking covert glances and blatently staring with your mouth hanging open and a little bit of drool dangling from one corner. Tits are part of a woman, a woman is not just a thing that comes with tits. As long as people are thinking/acting along those lines of thought, it's fine.

Fruity Gordo posted:

They do that because they want women to say 'prove it.' There are probably a lot of men who know they suck at it, who still brag, hoping for the 'prove it' reaction, which they see as a free ticket to Downtown Bonesville.

I do a full face every weekday but on the weekends, I mostly just do mascara and lip gloss. I like the change. It's interesting tho', since I got more skilled at applying make-up, I'm less insecure about not wearing it.

You're asking me to believe in sentient meat.
I was wearing full face 5 days a week. I quit my job and changed up the products that I use (CeraVe rules, for anyone who wasn't aware) and I've been wearing no makeup unless I'm going to an interview for three weeks now. ... I thought I'd see a difference in how clear my face was, but I really haven't.

Re. cooking -- another really good reference book is Mark Bitman's How to Cook Everything. Once you're familiar with how to do basic things, like roast or sear or braise or chop on the bias, all of which you can youtube, Bitman gives you something stupid like 700 over 1000 pages of very basic, very good recipes.

I'm also a lady who likes dudes and ladies. I can see why men like boobs, but I don't get the love for giant boobs. I guess it's because I prefer small to medium sized boobs.
