  • I love model's bodies.  I don't think they are too skinny...I think hip bones are sexy.  

    I think the heroin chic photography of the early 90s was beautiful.

    IVF (and many forms of infertility treatments) creeps me out

  • I don't like Don Draper.  I think he looks like he likes to smell farts.

  • I don't like unpopular opinion threads.

    :P

  • I think that the Dugar family should stop having kids. 19 is too many, especially when the last one came out so premature. It seems like a sign if you ask me.

    I feel like most "unpopular opinions" are really just random thoughts. Nothing anyone says is overly shocking nor does it go against the grain.
  • I want to slip and fall on the beach toooooo!!!   I swear if I did not have a new job that did not let me take vacations whenever I wanted like my old job did that I would have to make a little weekend trip to wedding crash.  :(

    More opinions:

    I hate Glee.

    I don't understand how so many people made fun of Kate Gosselin's hairdo, yet I see versions of it walking around every. single. day.

    I think splurging on frequent vacations is not a waste of money at all because life experience is way more important than paying off your house early.

    I agree. She also had pre-eclampsia in a previous pregnancy. It can happen to anyone.

  • My friend has it right now. They are treating it and they say she and the baby will be fine but it still seems scary.
  • I don't mind the Duggars at all. I don't see how them having more children, whom them fully financially support and have solid moral values, is at all controversial. That's my unpopular opinion. :)

    I believe that behavior is a response to the environment, and most all behavior can be modified. That being said, I think prison should focus on rehabilitation, and release from prison should be contingent on said rehabilitation.

    <p> </p><p>It was SO terrible. To make things worse, our university (the PSYCHOLOGY department, which just beggars belief) specifically told everyone to not mention the baby, which was clearly the wrong way to go about it- they had all of the staff and students tip-toeing around her pretending that nothing had happened. My colleague <em>wanted</em> to talk about her daughter, and didn't want to feel as though she was forgotten. She brought pictures of her into her office and tried to normalise it as much as possible, but there was such a stigma, which made things harder for her. She went on to start doing research on reactions to grief because of her experiences. </p><p>I don't know how she continued to go on after it happened; she was back at work a few weeks later, trying to keep herself busy... it was just a terrible situation. </p>
  • I think there are some post topics that should come with warnings on them about the subject matter. I've opened 3 or 4 posts in the past 2 weeks I couldn't close fast enough.
    There are some topics that are incredibly sensitive and too close for home for some folks, and without knowing it ahead of time, a reader could open something she (or he) doesn't need to read.

  • Sun...that is too sad.  Everyone deals with pain in their own way.  I think it should be up to that person whether or not it should be discussed.  I could definitely understand her wanting to talk about it rather than ignore it.

  • Sun, that is so awful. I bet her research yielded some really varying responses. When I've gone through hard things, I don't want to talk about it. Grief can manifest itself in so many ways.

    Also, I don't think infertility has anything to do with Darwinism. We have so many environmental factors that can cause infertility that I think little of it has to do with genetics anymore.

    <p>Posted by number55[/QUOTE]</p><p> </p><p>It is scary, but if it's managed properly it's usually ok. The issue with what happened in this case was that the midwife knew that the BP was elevated but failed to call the OB/get help until the situation was really dire. My colleague knew there was something wrong and was telling the midwife this, but she disregarded it (needless to say, she was fired afterwards and I believe there was a financial settlement from the hospital for my colleague). Given it's recognised, I'm sure your friend will be fine. </p>
  • Here are mine:

    I think the Duggars should have as many kids as they want as long as they can afford them.  If we let drug addicts and drunks have babies, then who are we to tell them what to do.

    I dont like address labels on invites (even the clear ones).

    I dont like fake flowers of any kind.

    I really dont like cats.  At all.  Not even kittens.

  • Missy- Do you mind giving some examples? I agree with you, but I don't know what you are referring to. I, for one, would like a warning for posts that involve animal abuse. (Like Lala's post with the video, but that did have a warning.)
    So if you don't mind specifying, I and maybe we, can make a point of doing that.

    Yesss! Me too! I bought a new scarf yesterday and wore it today even though it was 90 degrees outside because dangit, I'm ready to pull our my winter-wear!
  • Posts involving things like suicide, detailed posts about self-harming, etc. I think animal and child abuse too. If the post itself is the topic, then it's my opinion there should be a warning in the subject line. If the post is just a link to a news story, the warning could be there. Know what I'm saying?
