Now you understand how some women feel when all the ads show skinny women. Never mind that beautiful ladies come in many different shapes - no! According to the commercials, if you're not a skinny blonde, then you're butt-ugly. (Not that I have anything particular against skinny blondes - skinny blondes can be beautiful, but then so can full-figured brunettes, too).

You tell 'em, MHG!! (Dang! You posted just as I was writing!)

He forgot tall Redheads.

Yeah, that bugs me, too.

To me, they don't look very pretty at all. They just look very, very artificial.

Especially like Paris Hilton, Pamela Anderson, and Jessica Simpson. F! A! K! E!

Yes. Mustn't exclude WHF. (I didn't know she was tall).

What about tall, geriatric brunettes that moonlight as pirates?

WHF has more brown hair than red. I can't believe you totally forgot about Queenie-C.

That's because all the pictures in those magazines are airbrushed. Here's one example. You can find them all over the place; this isn't the first such site I've seen.

How about the way girls are portrayed in advertising? Skinny, big-chested, white-toothed and gorgeous. No wonder so many young girls have eating disorders and self-esteem problems. :rolleyes:

i am not a female, but i'm not like all the other boys. the ones that are always like "ohhhh. sweet! look at that chick's butt!" the point is, how come in all the soaps and shows, the girls walk around bikinis? just because they have to look good on TV, they can have some dignity. no point writing to our TVguide, the ed doesn't care.

Oh, I never forget Queenie. Trust me.

Just I figured her hair color was already covered by MHG.

I agree, Prime Time. I'm a red-blooded male with typical red-blooded male type desires, and I'm trying to live a chaste and decent life here! I DON'T need artificial lady-types prancing around in their underwear! So, Stop it! No Underwear Prancing, please!

Most people aren't like that. I don't judge women by their looks Unless it's long hair XD. And I agree with MHG. Those people who want to look like them need to get a clue >_>

ModestlyHotGirl · **Posted:** Sun May 28, 2006 1:41 am

I found the original site I was thinking of.

Lotsa bikini gals here, just so y'all know.

when we got to watch a reward movie, i wanted to watch Howl's Moving Castle but all the boys voted Fantastic Four because invisible girl takes off her clothes. once that was over, they didn't want to watch it.

Shaving commercials.

Why is is that they make it seem like shaving for a boy is the best thing in the world?

IT HURTS!!!

IT DOESN'T HAVE A NICE FEELING!!!

Ugh, it's the same for girls. I tried this hair removal cream for my legs a few weeks ago. IT BURNT MY SKIN LIKE CRAZY GO NUTS. The effects of it still show to this day. I'll stick to razors, kthx.

How do you think us guys feel? If we mess when shaving up we can't cover it up.

There is always the old maskus.

But yeah, I see your point but still... the pain!

Capt. Ido Nos · **Posted:** Sun May 28, 2006 7:48 pm

A-yup. This is exactly why I often put off shaving for as long as my parents can stand it, which is roughly (no pun intended) about a week.

My peeve: not the people doing it, but the buzz going around about the forum being less fun at the moment. Well, it's the end of school and the start of summer! People are busy wrapping up loose scholastic ends and starting p summer jobs (something I have to start doing soon >.> ) and as such can't spend huge amounts of energy bebopping around here. I say give it a couple of weeks or so. Everything goes in cycles, and we're just at a low end at the moment.

My compy's screen is 3" larger than my lappy's, yet they're the same resolution.

IantheGecko · **Posted:** Sun May 28, 2006 10:40 pm

I hate how I've been turned down for 4 job apps so far because "my answers didn't fit the minimum requirements" for the job. There HAS to be a job for a 17-year-old without a car! Whether I have to take the bus or walk, I want a job. I can work basically all summer, but once school comes along again in the fall, I obviously won't be able to work that much.

So I didn't put "flexible schedule". Holy crap; now I can't work!?!?

Underline, highlight and bold 'shaving for a boy'..

Thankfully, I have no real reason to shave, since my facial hair is just starting to grow. But I do hate clipping fingernails! Ever since I stopped chewing them they have reached girly statis of long. But I always clip my flesh to pieces when I try! It stinks being mechanically challanged.
Top'd!!! :eekdance:

Alexander · **Posted:** Sun May 28, 2006 10:54 pm

Yes I use that, but it doesn't matter to me.

Whatever has the smallest amount of pain will do for me.
