[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok this latest post about how her boyfriend is a “6’2 black man with dreadlocks” and so NOW she experiences the world at his side. [/quote] So many of the comments: I’m also dating a 6’7 man; as the MIL of a 6’5 black man; my husband is a beautiful 6’3 black man…. So weird. Nobody saying, “My husband is 5’8.”[/quote] My guess is that this is one of those validation by association things, like where you're in a conversation and someone shares something about their life and you recognize something similar from your own life. That's often a way people connect in a conversation. The additional factor here is that Jen has a level of celebrity beyond the average person which probably makes some people feel more validated when they recognize the similarities. [/quote]
