This magazine has phrased normal eating habits in a scandalous way. It’s why I stay away from glossy women’s magazines.

I’m at a healthy weight and I’m almost always trying to loose a few pounds. I have an eating disorder, right? Not since my attempts to loose weight involve eating a healthy breakfast (a thing I skip too often) and keeping away from so much caffeine and not if my goal is still within healthy.

And yeah, about 40% of the time I do a few turns in front of the mirror and decide I look fat in some outfit: and it takes the wind out of my sails for a sec. Big deal. I just change and put on a little extra lip gloss and I get over myself. Again: not an eating disorder.

And I wonder if vegetarians and vegans fall under the 26 percent of people who cut out entire food groups.

This isn’t a crisis. This is just the beauty industry trying to frame us all as crazy so they can help us buy telling us what we need to buy.

Because this poor women who jumped out of a window was wearing skinny jeans? That was a really, really bad play on words. Yikes.

It’s an awful story. I’m sorry to see so many ignorant comments in response to it. But I don’t think joking about it is the cool either.

“It is not out of the ordinary for my friends to let me know that my husband has let them know his struggles with me in our relationship.”

Guess what? A fried would tell your husband to stop. A friend would say, ‘No. You’re talking about my friend and all this personal information is making me uncomfortable and its making you look bad. Stop.’ A friend would not sulk back to you with gossip that’s just made to stress you out. This is painful to hear: but if your friends are listening to him and going back to you with hurtful gossip they are not your friends. These people are just acquaintances.

I think these two got in a bad pattern: she runs, he chases and the friends get rotated out in favor or new ones who don’t know this crazed history. Rinse. Wash. Repeat.

I think therapy is the only answer. Even if the marriage can’t be saved the LW really needs to examine herself more carefully to make sure she dosen’t slide right back into this comfortable pattern.

Diamonds don’t hold their value at all. Every failed relationship I know of was shocked to discover it. Maybe you’ll get 1/10 of what you paid for it. It’s so little compared to the purchase price most guys don’t care enough to deal and most women end keeping it and using the stone for something else.

If you’re planning on getting married this is the best piece of advice ever: buy used or fake.

Because it makes your daughter responsible for protecting herself. Can you imagine you child being attacked in a public place and the police shrugging and saying, ‘Not our fault. She should have called us on her ankle thingy.’

When I saw the letter count I thought this might be a good one for a change. But this is another totally normal problem. This girl would be having the exact same issues out West – it would just be sunnier while she was having them. The only reason the letter count is high is because of that East Coast/West Coast war (yawn).

Not 4K cute but I'll bet Coach is working on a knock-off in real snake skin right now.

when the third tier designers (9-West et al) start knocking off this bag in variety of vinyl colors at $80 EVERYONE is going to be carrying it (I’ll take mine in bright green, please). And that’s what Gucci is all about – this bag isn’t supposed to be for everyone. But it is supposed to set a larger trend and I’ll bet that happens with this bag.

Of course - by the time it's out on the street the fad is as dead as a black, Kate Spade box tote.

And regarding the snake skin – animal rights issues aside natural skins are certainly preferable to pressed vinyl. No?

Why call him out as old and fat in the header? Is this how we show sympathy to people now? Harding sounds like a real jerk in this post. Not at all cute.

But none of these people look younger. They just look skinny, tight, shinny and freakish. It’s like all of Hollywood came up with this alien standard of beauty that we’re all just supposed to accept as ‘young looking’ even if it looks terrifying.

Renee Zelwegger is a good case in point – something is actually seriously wrong with her face but we’re all supposed to accept that she’s this standard of beauty. I do hate to come down on her (I realize she has feelings too) but on the other side we can’t just let this deformed look pass as glamorous.

And men are doing this too. It’s funny that someone said Dustin Hoffman hasn’t – because he looks like a victim to me. And has anyone seen Kenny Rogers lately? YIKES!
