Because that's when she's most attractive. So what?

Some women delight in looking as plain and frumpy as possible (it magically increases your intelligence). Take that misogynistic men!

Surely, women, there's a better way?

Your interests and aspirations and dreams should always come after your children's interests, aspirations and dreams. And the primary job of both parents is to care for the children and bring in money for that purpose. How they choose to divide the jobs is up to them. Lots of people do gain weight because they put their children first and when children are young, there is little time for doing your own thing.

Totally disagree. My dreams come after my children's needs, but there is time and money for all of us.

No fault divorce!

Absolutely oppose.

Also, the widely held concept that the only way to avoid having children is contraception and abortion because people are entitled to have sex whenever and with whomever they please. Thus, I oppose any version of Obamacare that uses my $ in any form to pay to accommodate someone else's sexual appetite, foibles and accidents.

So glad I could afford to have my tubes ties. Now I have sex whenever I feel like it. So there~

You can't be serious. Unless you are a native American you better make plans to self-deport.

That comment is tired and has no bearing on our needs today. Too often, in our zeal to be a free and open society, we sacrifice US citizens for the comfort of (sometimes ungrateful) foreigners.

You know what, I never do this, anonymous or not, but just go fuck yourself, OP. You bigoted, ignorant, self-centered asshole.

So, you don't think the US has its fill and should instead focus on those who are here? We should just keep letting folks in until we resemble India & China?

No, kidding! PP, stop living and breathing through your kids! My god, you are a living being, too.

Add to my list: parents who have lost all perspective.

I saw a program, maybe from NatGeo, of a matriarchal society where the men use makeup hoping to attract women. And some of the ladies were chauvinistic, saying things like, why shouldn't the men try to please them. Very interesting.

Wow. I just wear makeup to hide my horrible facial scarring, because it hurts when I overhear little kids asking their parents "what's wrong with that lady?" and "was that girl in a fire?" The worst is "What's wrong with her face?" Sorry, but I'll keep on with my makeup.

I'm sorry for your pain. But this is not what the pp is referring to, I'm sure. I think she is referring to society's expectation that women must wear make up to be appropriately presentable. Especially in young adult social gatherings and then later law and business/professional settings.

Get out of DC. I live in Berkeley and while I do shave and don't ever wear Birkenstocks, I also don't wear any makeup beyond sunscreen and lipgloss on a regular basis to work. And I look completely appropriate and presentable in business and professional settings, and I am a young adult.

Wait until you're 45. You'll NEED makeup by then. Trust me.

Focus how? I don't even know what you are asking? Who is stopping the Congress from passing the law to increase the minimum wage? Who is stopping the American business owners from hiring strictly American workers? Legal immigrants aren't taking anything from you. If you knew anything about this subject, which i guarantee you don't, you would know that in order to get your permanent residence you have to have someone guarantee for your financial future so that there is no risk to the US government of ever supporting you. Most of the illegals are so scared of being deported that they never ask for the government to help them. So again, what the fuck is your problem?

The US would do well to take a look at a society that is more equitable than present.

Sorry, but nope. The fact my great grandparents busted their humps to build a business should have some benefits for their heirs.

In other words "I deserve to profit off of the hard work of others, just because of how the random genes fell."

The fact that you are cruising along on the success of your great grandparents is probably making them roll over in their graves.

Legal immigrants do take American jobs. While not necessarily bad, I'm not sure why you are denying this fact. And don't give me that "Americans don't want the job/aren't qualified" bull.

If you think that illegals are so afraid of deportation that they don't seek government help, I have a bridge to sell you. Are you completely unaware of the ID fraud that takes place among illegal immigrants? Are you completely unaware about how they're raping govt resources? Surely, you're not this unaware.

Amen, sistah! Let's be friends!!!

Wow, just wow. You sound like judgemental harpies or Evangelical Christians or both.

No, no, just women who don't enjoy sex.
