jufty18 asked:


One of my beauty tips is brushing my lips with my electric toothbrush . This makes my lips super smooth and swells them just a little. It works way better than any lip pumpers it doesn’t cost anything and it doesn’t taste bad like some lip pumpers I’ve tried.

Tami G asked:


I am just curious, because I swear that last night I felt the fetus move, but I am not sure, as it’s my first pregnancy. So, just wondering how far I’d have to be before I would be able to feel any movement.

Do women possess maps or the ability to seek and follow directions to a location BEFORE setting out?

women
jefelum asked:


BTW I do not hesitate to stop and ask for directions when I have not had the foresight or wherewithall to have obtained a map or accurate directions beforehand…AND I am not alone as a man who is tired of hearing the negative stereotype that men don’t stop to ask for directions. Is it time yet for women to realize that ALL negative stereotyping leads to misunderstandings and negativity? When will women become equal to all the millions of men who already get it?
My soulmate and I - both humanists…not feminists nor male”ists” - were wondering how many of you obsessive instant answerers were poised at your keyboards on a Sunday morning answering inane trivial questions…I said many, she said almost none. We also wagered on what percent would attack the asker instead of even attempting to answer the question…we both thought more than half. We wondered if anyone would connect this to Queen Clinton’s reference to this negative stereotype on Letterman last week. Result…we were both right and both wrong. Thanks for the survey.

How many Western women feel funny hanging out with women who wear the hijab?

women
Incognita asked:


I have a nice figure ( but I don’t go overboard) like the girls on Southwest Airlines. However, I feel funny around women who wear the hijab, as if by their presence I am made to feel morally lacking in a group. I feel insulted because I am naturally attractive and I feel that they are trying to force their beliefs (Allah) on me. I think a little fun is okay. I love my freedom to independence, and no matter what women say who wear the hijab, they are giving up a bit of freedom. I love wearing heels on a bright sunny day and wearing my hair down, hanging on my shoulders. Also, as much as a woman who wears the hijab wants to believe she will never experience the wonderful feel of running along the beach with her nice sexy muscled legs, enjoying just breathing and being herself. I know other women will answer this by saying they can run along the beach with a hijab which I feel is BS -never in the same way, it must be stifling-literally and figuratively.
