    TrueBlood-Twilight-Harry Potter

    The Harry Potter series is quite Christian in its themes, and while it's not focused on, the characters are clearly Christians (they celebrate Christian holidays, there are Bible verses on Harry's parents' headstones, etc). I hate Twilight, but I'm fairly certain the author never...

    Lady Gaga's Judas -- Spreading the Occult Gospel

    Bit late to the party here, but yes, Gaga was raised Catholic and remains religious in her own way (even going so far as to outright state in one of her songs, "There's only 3 men that I'ma serve in my whole life: It's my daddy and Nebraska (her boyfriend) and Jesus Christ"). She may not...

    Wedding favors!

    Kind of a late reply, and I'm still not engaged yet (it's coming...sometime this year, it *is* coming lol), but I've started looking into wedding stuff and I think I'm probably going to do caramel apples with a crunch topping from Daffy Apple (wedding will likely be October 2013). Also...

    School Lunch

    Not a parent, but just wanted to say that kids being able to choose their lunch isn't new. When I was in elementary school, I think there were 4 meals to choose from every day (Option 1: changed daily, Option 2: changed daily, Option 3: bagel, Option 4: salad). It wasn't very healthy...

    Talking about things with your companion before marriage.

    You need to resolve these issues before you propose. My boyfriend and I discussed baby names, sex, finances, etc before we even made our relationship official. It's really important to have an ongoing dialogue about that stuff.

    Who all is supposed to go to the rehearsal dinner?

    When my brother got married, it was just the wedding party (bridesmaids, groomsmen, flower girl, ring bearer), parents, grandparents, and the parents of the ring bearer and flower girl. If any siblings hadn't been in the wedding party already, then they would have been invited, too. I was a...

    Honeymoon

    We're not engaged yet, but we're probably going to honeymoon in Salem, Massachusetts. He loves the paranormal and I love old time-y towns, so it should be a good choice for us.

    "I Love You"...

    I wouldn't be able to date a guy who would not/could not tell me he loved me...but I also wouldn't bother entering into a relationship unless I could see myself marrying the guy and he could see himself marrying me. My boyfriend said "I love you" two days after we met in person and decided to...

    Yep :). You're welcome to join the BBW world if you want to, though :P. We have cookies! Lots and lots...and lots of cookies :P. Just joking around :P.

    Not all of these people are "stupid," "have issues," or are "sick"...

    It's more common than you think. It doesn't surprise me at all, but then again, I'm familiar with it.

    Just to show things from the perspective of an FA and to highlight the "closet" feelings they experience...I found this "article" of sorts online. My boyfriend and I do not agree with everything the author says (the guy is a rather dramatic (some of his "facts" are probably wrong), makes...

    I wouldn't live in Australia, either...too hot and full of creatures that can kill you :P. It can also be a really pretty place, though, so rock on to anyone who lives there or wants to live there :P. If it's an obsession or rooted in a mental issue, then yes, there's something wrong with...

    That case is an example of an FA who is obsessed with weight and/or a jerk and a user. My boyfriend loves my weight but he also loves me, so he would never leave me for not being fat enough. I wouldn't be so quick to call it a fetish...if you go nutty/intense with it, it can be a fetish, but...

    You're welcome :). I will say that obsession on either end of the scale is bad, though (I think you would agree with that...since what you seem to be saying is that the true obsessions (the bad reasons for being on either end of the scale) are equally bad).

    If she is truly happy the way she is, then I'd imagine she feels that she has a great quality of life :). It might not be what others would consider a great quality of life (just like a wealthy man may never be able to comprehend how poor or middle class people can be happy), but she's happy...

    Even people involved in feederism and stuffing worry about the health aspect. A lot of BBWs and FAs are even opposed to it. I'm not super fond of the idea and my boyfriend thinks it's hot in theory, but not so great in reality. As long as everybody's happy, I think it's okay, but the fact is...

    No, it wasn't offensive...I understand that a lot of people have not been "taught" or exposed to these issues. I'm not sure that there is an increase in FAs because they're rebelling against the emphasis on super-thin models...I think it just seems like there are more BBWs and/or more FAs...

    Like the line between BBW and SSBBW, the line between chubby/plump/etc. can also be fairly blurry and largely dependent on the opinion of each individual FA. Size 14 is especially tricky and it really depends on how you carry your weight. If you carry it evenly or you're tall and have kind of...
