I think you look like Botticelli's Girl With A Unicorn, except that she's a blond.
Maybe it's just the expression. Or perhaps you are like nothing so much as your own self, as me Mum used to say.

So, if you were 14 at Xmas, does this make you 15 now? Or was it an earlier Xmas?

And if you ARE 15, how come you're being tormented at this "zoo" you often speak of? Your life is very mysterious to me, T'Popsy.


And yes, you and Dis both need to watch this really silly youtube about body images in america (and earth in general)

http://youtube.com/watch?v=e19NrkUcFEQ

Will you cut that out? You keep acting like you're Quasimodo or something, when every image I've seen of you, you're an attractive young woman. So stop denigrating yourself, T'Poptarts ... or we'll have to make Mitchell sing to you or something.

You're not wrong. She IS lovely. However, Rigil, I have to say, no matter how stupid we (women) sound about our bodies when we whine and worry, we really do care that much. (Like we're not just whining to get compliments or to randomly complain: we actually feel awful sometimes about how we look). Most of us (even the ones with relatively good self-images) actually spend a little to a lot of time examining/noticing every stretch mark and varicose vein and cellulite pucker and fatty area with feelings of despair and self-yuckiness in our guts. Even when we don't want to. Even when we KNOW it's TOTally stupid.



But I mean, look at Jolene's bum. Just LOOK at it. We want that bum. WE probably want that bum more than YOU do. Even most of the ones of us who say "we don't like that look" and who say "we like a fleshier look" still have some little inner whisperer that quietly whispers and whispers and never really quite goes away. No matter how logical you try to be. No matter how airbrushed/corseted the supermodels are, we almost all secretly crave on some faint, molecular, back-of-the-mind kind of way to have that impossible perfect body that even the supermodels only are pretending to have. And I'm not talking anorexics or bulimics or people with serious body-image issues. I'm talking regular women. Tons of them feel this way all the time.

It's very stupid. But it's the sauce we're marinated in these days. Just LOOK at her BUM! All ya can do is get up every day and tell yourself you look great and try to forget about it.

Doubt it. Damn you, Jolene Husband (he doesn't deserve a name...)

I am quite aware of the desire to have a better body than one has. Lord, do I know that music. I share that boggle and I'm a guy. That said, T'Poptarts is just so consistently denigrating herself that its painful. She's attractive, yet keeps insisting that she's not. That was what I was responding to...

[TSara]

This may seem so clique...but T'Poptarts.....have you ever heard the song true colors?

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7xxJobqH ... ed&search=

Listen to it.....I mean REALLY listen to it. I think it describes you to a T.

My opinion though.

Seriously I think you are a very lovely young lady.

I remember what being a teen was like....it sucked.

And yes I was overly hard on myself....Hell I still am at times.


Things do get better when you get older. *Nods*

This is for you KTR ,from an auto-expo in my country

Now you've made me feel guilty for drooling over Jolene's bum, and even having that sig banner!

[Distracted]

No need to feel guilty, KTR. Without bum admirers such as yourself to plaster the ideal bum everywhere we look, how would we know what to aspire to?

I think she meant that the character she was playing was 14, not that she herself was 14 at the time.

It's not the bum for me - it's that I want a stomach that flat. But I also don't want to subsist on rabbit food.

Dude! You've read my KvP musical... you know how demented I am... and right now I've got Mitchell's farm as a Broadway musical playing in my head... yep that's Mitchell accompanied by his Amazing Singing/Dancing Cows!! And what's worse he's dressed in his beautiful catsuit!

Well and that's an excuse to post this pic again


RIGIL STARTED!!!

[prisocisor]

Oh poor, silly girls... Mine especially:

We DO "like a fleshier look"... at least I do.

Now go EAT something!

...before your boobs disapear

[evcake]

OK, am I the only one who found the hooker-butt pic somewhat offensive? Distasteful?Partiularly at just that point in the thread?

[TPoptarts]

^ That's not a hooker. That's Mitchell.

[enterprikayak]

No, T'Pops I think she meant the large closeup of the shortshorts, but I think it actually made an excellent non-intentional point in support of what I've been writing about the "sauce we're marinated in" as women in 2007. It's just everywhere. Unintentionally, all the time. But at least ktr is feeling somewhat guilty now. Ah, yer bumbanner is nice, don't fret. And taking it down won't prevent Paris Hilton from sticking her skinny body up all over the mall posters, so enjoy your butts while you can, me boy. Until we women take over and decide that an extra sixty pounds is just comfortable padding.

And Mitchell: as a social experiment, you should take that Photoshop of you in your catsuit down to the feed store and see what all the menfolk sittin' around on barrels playing checkers think of you and your saucy duds.

[evcake]

Those are not shortshorts - its a denim thong. Thanks a lot, T'Poptarts, now I'm picturing this denim thong made from a pair of overalls...accessorized with huge muddy wellies...
As to the bum banner - I'm used to it, but I have to wonder if one emailed Jolene Blalock, would one sign it with such a banner? It seems disrespectful of one's Goddess. Really.

No.
