I agree

I dislike gender reveal parties not because of the AW-aspect but because of the gender aspect. Why must we start imposing our gender stereotypes on our children before they're even born?? I'm all for celebrating a new life but I don't agree with all of the focus on its genitalia.

Ditto. I've never been a huge "baby" person. Of course I'm looking forward to (hopefully) having one but what I'm really looking forward to is when they're old enough to have conversations with and take to disneyland and run around the park etc.

Perhaps because calling it a "sex reveal party" would send mixed messages to your guests.

(P.S. I agree with you.)

This - but also, you can't reveal a "gender" before a baby is born anyways. You can know the sex of the baby, NOT the gender. As a wise person once said - "Gender is between the ears, sex is between the legs." I guess my UO is that it drives me bonkers when people talk about finding out the gender of their baby. People need to be educated on the correct terms.

I don't understand why people get fake nails. I think they look really trashy and tacky. I think either plain or painted natural nails look fine, I just can't stand fake ones.

DLpanda08 · May 2013

I don't get twitter. I really don't. It seems incredibly dumb and useless to me.

I also think adults who get into arguments on FB (especially in the comments section of a photo posted by an organization) are a little pathetic.

I think Winnie the Pooh can be cute if it is done well and the Pooh related stuff is kept minimal. If the room is in soft pastels and plush fabrics with vintage Pooh characters as stuffed animals or accent pieces I think it would be sweet!

That said, bright colored WtP stuff all over the place is definitely ugly.

First let me say that as a person with a research background, I think proper funding for breast cancer research is very important. However, I can't stand companies that profit from slapping a pink ribbon on something or selling something in pink to increase sales without providing any details about where the money is going, and how much. I also find the slogans that sexualize breast cancer (ie "save the tatas", "I love boobies", "save second base") to be reductive and disrespectful to women battling the disease. We don't need a bunch of people driving around with magnets for "awareness" - at this point everyone is aware of breast cancer, and I think the focus needs to be on prevention and treatment options for all women (not just those that can afford to access the health care system).

I'm so glad you said this. I've been looking for the right words to say this for quite some time, but I was afraid it'd come off offensive. You worded this extremely well.

I think people say "gender" instead of "sex" because it's a more polite word to use in company.

I don't like male strippers. (I don't like female strippers that much either, but I don't have as strong of feelings in that matter) I don't find them sexy, they do nothing to turn me on, and I'd much rather see a guy in a pair of boxers than a speedo.

I've never been a huge fan, but I just see it as kind of dated. I have a fb friend who also went with Winnie the Pooh. Just doesn't trip my trigger.

I agree. Our nursey is WtP and although I might do something different if I were doing it again, I think it's a sweet theme. Ours is cream, light yellow, and sage green. It was something DH and I both remembered from our younger days.

I agree. I also hate most themed nurseries though, as well as pastels. But, I realize I'm in the minority there..

I don't like Winnie the Pooh-themed stuff either. Although I did by a Winnie the Pooh Pack N' Play for DD - only because it had all the features I was looking for and it's gender neutral so I can use it for the next kid, no matter the sex.

I'll take this one further. I don't like any character themed baby stuff. Mickey Mouse, Minnie, Winnie the Pooh, any kind of Disney, etc. Gag me.

I will say, though, that the one somewhat character theme I like is The Very Hungry Caterpillar. That one is cute.

I don't like wine. I keep trying to make myself like it so I can be a classy drunk, but no success yet.

I don't really like it either. I have found one that I can stand to drink and oddly enough for it to taste good it has to be at the right temp and I have to be in the right mood. I'm clearly weird.

vadarling · May 2013

I hate how so many movies are in 3D now. Did the Great Gatsby really need to be in 3D???

I'm so sick of hashtags. Like, cool you need them for instragram and twitter and stuff, but on random facebook posts it's freaking annoying and pointless. #juststop :P

Ditto!

Also, I was really bothered by how many women I know went apeshit over the movie Magic Mike. The posts saying "who cares about the plot, I'm going for the eye candy" particularly bothered me. I know for a fact that the friends posting that in FB would be hurt/offended if their husbands made comments like that about a movie about female strippers. If you and your DH are into strippers, that isn't my business, but the double standard on this issue pisses me off.

I'm not a wine fan either, but I found a red one I can actually deal with. It's sweet, but not too sweet.. and it is slightly carbonated so there are some little bubbles. My friend likes it too, and wine usually gives her headaches. If y'all are interested in trying here is the name:

Roscato
Rosso Dolce
2011

Here is a random site with a picture of how the bottle looks:
