Or like they say in Utah, "Old enough to bleed, old enough to breed"!
Shut up you pedophile, I wish someone would come to their senses and introduce capital punishment for this abomination called pedophilia.
just because you've "got it" doesn't mean you have to show it around like you don't have an ounce of respect for yourself
I get so sick of being expected to be size 0-3 and wearing skirts that you can't move in or else flash people your panties
Just like guys need fancy cars and other things to boost their appeal. It's stupid. like people for people.

Women derive power from their bodies I don’t. I derive my power by being a respected lawyer and a good life partner, thank you very much. For your information, I cover myself from neck to toe and have never lacked power in my profession.
they have never had to go through the anguish of finding an outfit that fits in all the right places. you have never been bra shopping. have you ever worn a thong? have you worn high heels? have you plucked your eyebrows or shaved your legs?
i would stand up for a man in a split second if he was being put down by society, take for example all the "dumb husband" commercials
Mooncake, I think we might be sisters. I would have said exactly the same. Btw I have never done any of the things apart form shaving legs and haave still managed to get married to a man that respect a woman with dignity. He is from Punjab which adds nicely onto "if you are fat yu can only have a Mexican" which shows that beauty is subjective and that non-Western men are on average less shallow. In Punjab the only adorment women have is soap and water, not even leg shaving and the men don't mind. Why is the West so perfection, thiness and sex obssesed? Although I am neither chubby nor unsightly it's stuff like hyper sexualisation of everything, shallowness and lack of mutual contact and respect that made me abandon my culture for ever and find my place in a more beautiful one.
Oh, but that's okay to objectify them, because men aren't important... It's not. I hate male strip clubs as much as female ones, I hate the lack of honour these people have and general superficality. I would stand up for my partner with my life if need be as would he for me...
And last but not least
I think we need to stop pointing the finger at men, and start pointing it at SOCIETY. Men are taught just as women are taught that women are sexual objects, and have to be thin to be worth anything. Sure. most men are jerks, but we feed into it too. Society is a piece of shit, and affects all of us. The Biggest APPLAUSE The West has gone to Hell (metaphorically)
Btw MoonCake if you wanna know where to find dignified clothing, respectful men and not have to wear a bra, I can give it you in another post

Abusive comment hidden.
(Show it anyway.)
As I walk in the pink dusk
of the city the colour of a rose
I have but only one question to pose
What is it that draws me to this land?
Is it the syrupy sweetness of jalabi
the hot roti straight of the tawa
the dozens of sweet, wide eyed kids
gazing at the moon?
Is the rivers of Kerala mirroring the moonlight
or maybe the satin silky salwar khameez of every hue
could it be the surrounding mountain that when absent give me the blues?
It is neither of this.
It's something deeper
somehting that I don't find at home
It's the sense of dignity I see in the eyes of the elders
the sense of belonging amosngst the kids
the pride and self-respect of the mothers by the river
The depth of human contact, the message from a look alone, the symbolism of colour and that nothing is as it seems.
Here, everything has a deeper meaning
Nothing is merelt something.
