    Many, many years ago I went on a "football" weekend to Bournemouth UK. I'd never had a Kebab and on the three mile walk back to the hotel at the end of the evening I had my first one. Walked about two miles towards the hotel and decided that, I WANT ANOTHER! and walked all the way back to get one. I know that they are not the healthiest take out, but boy do they hit the spot!

    Wow. Breaking the unhealthy patterns of motherhood and womanhood from generations is just.... so f-ing rough on your entire spirit! I speak from experience and it really truly is hard. I hate that it was and is necessary. But I do the best I can so my kids can have happier childhoods than I had.

    This one was a bit lengthy. Best one-liner I've seen on this subject was, "There is no such thing as feminism. You are either a sexist human being or you are not." Simple and to the point.

    Meh, this is kinda apples and oranges. Yes, you won’t get that dramatic of a change with diet and exercise alone, you’d mostly likely need surgery, etc, but it’s still an effective method if you want to lose weight. You just shouldn’t be forced to lose weight if you’re healthy and happy.
