relax! he probably means he hates to agree that such a disheartening interpretation of things is probably true!! Scott, Ian has my meaning spot on, as does crfriend: Taosit was not even remotely offering insult or perceived offence toward Scott -- quite the opposite in fact! He was agreeing, in ver...

I hate to concur with Scott, but in my 20+ years of working closely with college students of both genders, I see much the same thing, perhaps even more so in recent years. Of course it is not unsual to see a lot of intolerance and conformity in this age group. And that has given me some pause in my ...

. . .Soaking in a little warm water with some Epson salt in it for 20 minutes 3 times a week and before long that yellow nail fungus will be gone, your feet will be clean and the skin under your nails will be pink again. You can do this while you’re watching TV, eating supper, etc. One of my de-str...

I had to do this once in the '70's as I had a fungus growing on the hairs. I went to the university clinic and they had me come back for a bunch of med students to get a look at it; that was kind of embarassing. Never found out why it happened and wasn't for lack of hygiene. It never came back. Than...

I shaved mine off after about 15 years. The next morning I spotted a stranger in the bathroom mirror and remembered why I'd grown it in the first place.:eek: :covereyes: :eek: :covereyes: :eek: :rotfl: :rotfl: That's me!

Sarongs are wonderful and I think one can wear them with less flak than skirts, although they will attract attention. My neighbors got to watch me tear down and rebuild a stockade fence while wearing a sarong (along w/hiking boots and a tool belt). I do basicly what WS says, although I take the left...

I've painted finger & toenails off and on for years, mostly for my own amusement. I do have brittle nails, so I will occassionally apply a hardner to them. I used to have a nice matte finish, but now only have a clear gloss for the fingernails. Old, yellow, bunged up toenails tend to bother me, ...

seem to me to be acting out almost a parody of society's notion of femininity. . . . It seems to me to express "don't take me seriously, I'm just a silly girl." This reflects the idea that feminine women aren't really grown-ups. . . . this doesn't seem to make them any more empathic with ...

The above logic also opens the field by a bit. If you "take it off" at the end of the day, then it's not something you're pretending to be; if you "take it to bed" with you, you may be obsessed by it or it may indicate other "issues". I wonder what the psychologists/ps...

Here's a few pictures The sarong is what I typically have worn at home for the past few years. At first my wife wanted me confined to the house, but as time went by it has become normal out and about our street. All the neighbors are used to it by now and we'll all be chatting in the street or in th...

My out and about is mostly limited to around the house, yard and occassionally to the neighbors. After several years they are very used to seeing and relating to me in a sarong. This morning though I was out front in a black stretch tank and a white tiered broomstick skirt with shiny white embroider...
