So, perv = someone with an opinion I don't want to espouse in public, but won't actually do anything about? Handy definition.
Well, it's more like he fails to see "the pervs" as existing in a continuum with a whole bunch of other toxic elements of western culture, like the madonna-whore dichotomy, and the sexualization of women in the media, and the push-back against feminism. That stuff's all inter-related, and in fact includes things that are toxic to men, like the way sitcoms and commercials (and Judd Apatow) portray men as emotionally immature and irresponsible, and women as obsessive goal-oriented harpies.
... argh. But hey, the work day is over and I can go home and do dishes like a responsible member of society! (And then make oatmeal-whiskey bread.)
And he seems to think that if we can just isolate and shame "the pervs", that everything will be all better. As if there's a bright and definable line separating the pervs from the rest of this culture.
I bet he also thinks rape is only a stranger jumping out of a bush in a dark alley (I know, shut up, it's a weird alley) in the wrong part of town.
Typo,
the one time I bought them, I got them at Target and I felt like I was getting mugged in the store.
I kinda love this news story for how ludicrous it is. All it's lacking is a llama or something. Guy gets pulled over by police while texting while driving. Er, driving DRUNK. And when the police physically got to the car, they discovered he had a mobile meth lab. [link]
The funniest part, actually, is that among the list of charges he was cited with, one was "failure to notify address change." Yeah, he probably would have walked on all those other charges, until that one. That'll get you every time.
Well, failure to notify of address change is Serious Business.
Wacoal wearers, Teppy has inspired me to get serious about this bra thing. Do Wacoals run true to size? Could I buy one online and not regret it?
Tep, what's the verdict on the one you bought?

I still need to re-try it on. I'm all manky from the gym.
Failure to change address got me out of jury duty until I was 37 (and then I really wanted to be slected and was denied!!!)
Thank you all for the birthday wishes!

Did you buy the target brand? It is only the target brand meters and target brand strips for the target brand meters (or the walmart brand meters and walmart brand strips for the walmart brand meters) that are cheap.
