With all the media coverage related to women changing the size of their breasts, how come spam is full of email offers related to changing the size of the male you know what and you never see offers for breast reductions, implants in spam. This stuff I guess is meant to fill up your head, so a person doesn't have enough space to question the possible misuse of Anti spcyhotic drugs on seniours in Ontario for example, and how possible it is that any government uses that to quicken people's death, especially diabetic seniours. This other stuff degrades people, and makes especially single people, appear to be only concerned about this stuff. People are being trained I think, to treat each other pornographically and to act very insensitively to seniours.
exploora.
I found your post interesting for some reason.
even though I can't explain the reason-
because I don't the "why" part yet.
Still you raised some valid questions, unlike a lot of the more, so-called, better writers, often don't.
I have said more than once that the most interesting things I have read on the web, come from non-native English speakers.
So, although their grammar may not be perfect, they manage to more effectively frame a position or feeling. I first experienced on the nytimes.com, on a comments section, where I was viciously attacked for a brief but apparently volatile comment.
However.
The most sincere and most beautiful and moving comment came from a woman who was not a native speaker of English.
It was 2 line longs.
Maybe the shortest of all on in the section...
Pretty sure about that.
I'll get the link when I'm done with my comment here, and you can read it, if you are interested. It was about the suicide of a relatively young and highly gifted and talented writer.
His name was David Foster Wallace.
What a name, I thought, for a writer.
Elegant.
I'm jealous!
But, anyway.
DFS has a devoted following....
many of them nytimes.com readers.
I had never heard of him.
Which isn't unusual because most great writers rarely achieve fame during their lives. Rather these are those souls who continually suffer while alive. Often rejected, mostly rejected, because they don't fit in with the rest of society. Something sets them apart.
DAMN.
TOO DAMN BUSY.
Have to finish this another day!
I went to a private bilinugual school, so I landed up doing french before english, my english is perfect after I put lots of effort into it, the sentence structure is different right, so my background acedemically technically is math/accounting/management anyway, but I got exempt from one english if I tried really hard in the second english, which I did, and never took the third english, but I took the three maths, stats, econ, accounting. etc.
It is not natural for me to write in english sentence structure, i think I am the majority :)
when i am in the states, some people call me french, though i speak english better than french, cause I have so much more practice.
So that is what happens when you are in a bilingual country. I guess.
I think the way sentence structure, is thoughts are framed by it. That is why poetry is so interesting, cause it seems to connect the force of electricity and rythm. This has nothing to do with A B cups, accept I could say my cup runneth over, and I am content with mine :), life is too short to worry about this stupid stuff, especially if sagging matters, we should probably be standing on our heads :) when presenting ourselves, then we would all be at an equal playing field.
Please don't tell me Jennifer Connelly reduced those puppys, She (In my eyes ) is the most beautiful actress ever bar none !!
I'm thinking of reducing the size of my johnson
I've wondered why somebody hasn't done an expose on the penis enlargement scams, I seem to remember awhile back that ex-stends or whatever its called got sued and lost, In the ruling it said the stuff was snake oil and they had to pay out some big settlement, But even today I've seen no less than 10 commercials selling the stuff ????
This is the most selfish surgery known to man.
God gave them a wonderful gift to share with the world, and they selfishly get rid of it....
Idgit.
I think the after pictures look much more flattering for all of them.
Anyway, my comment is that having an oversized implant removed is not a "breast reduction," it is a breast implant removal.
Thank you Lord for Thelma and Louise. I would never alter your handiwork!
Just a reality check regarding Kimberly Stewart's claim to have "gifted" her implants to Jack Osbourne. I was a paralegal at a law firm working on the Dow Corning Breast Implant litigation for 3 years, and, sad to say, we had a closet full of removed breast implants in containers. They were disgusting and not at all suitable for gifting. After a few years, breast tissue and muscle fuses to the implant casing. Yuk.
Very misleading title. Removal of implants is not the same as breast reduction surgery.
And some--Drew Barrymore and Jennifer Connelly (who now looks a bit emaciated)--have lost weight. And we all know that is the first place one loses weight!
Thank you.
