Well I have seen it happen, though certainly not to "all women." A lot of young girls do have an idealized idea of what a marriage should be and ignore the warning signs when the wrong guy comes around.

Well, heh, I'll say this. There's nothing wrong with a woman saying her most important ambition is to have a family. I mean when men say it, we call them sweet and sensitive. So why can't a woman say it? It doesn't mean she doesn't want a career. Just that she wants a balance between...

I see them mainly as jerkwad human beings. ;)

Mmmmmmmmm....no idea, lol.

Yeah I thought about saying that earlier, you are correct. It's just that accidental or not, addicts do know what they're getting into know it's always a possibility.

D'Snowth, I agree, we shouldn't be bothering with this "accidental" stuff anymore. Everyone knew this woman was having these problems. And everyone let her down. And she let herself down. Now at the same time I do agree that addiction is an illness. It does alter brain chemistry and affect...

:: sigh :: How many more times will this have to happen before these industries and our society stop enabling and glorifying these people who clearly need help and not worship?

I saw a 1991 VHS of "Sing, Hoot and Howl" at my library book sale. I was going to buy it until a little girl saw it and said, "Ooo Sesame Street!" I recommended it to her father and they took it home. The kids come first, right? ;)

I don't think 2 hours is too bad. It's when it's 3 hours that most people get annoyed because it really takes up the whole day.

Oh I forgot all about that Hey Arnold episode, such a funny show, Helga was a great character, lol. A couple of super hero shows (Wonder Woman, Greatest American Hero, and possibly Batman) tried changing it up by having the characters not get complete amnesia, but just forget that they're super...

My great grandmother was a cleaning lady at a university dorm she could never dream of going to herself. We do what we have to do, you know? I remember a few years ago they had Miley on a TV show and all the goofy adults were praising her for being the one bastion of hope amongst all the...

LOL. I hear you.

Well in the past it's true that type casting was rampant and it was definitely unfair to many actors. But at the same time you know, acting is a job just like any other job, and it will have its ups and downs. People shouldn't be ashamed or depressed, especially if it was largely out of their...

Because he was, man he was! : D Lol, sorry. My ex didn't like Spongebob either. But I couldn't understand why since I didn't think Spongebob's humor was all that different from previous shows we had liked. I think it was the just character itself that rubbed some people the wrong way. Much like...

It's OK, I've had a hard couple of weeks too. Yes I do think it's the parents' job to explain these things. My parents didn't really limit the shows I watched, however they did make it clear what I could and could not repeat in school! ;)

Oh I agree, I don't mean sitting them in front of the TV and letting them learn it all on their own. Parents should be the primary source for learning and bonding. But arts and literature are there in society to inspire and teach us, so parents would be wise to make use of such things...

I'm sorry but I don't agree. 8 year olds certainly can recognize good quality (and bad quality). Much more often than adults in fact. We aren't doing kids any favors by underestimating them. And it doesn't make any sense. We're supposed to be preparing these kids to take over from us. We should...

Oh for sure, it's often said that more than any of the others, Mickey truly embodied what it was to be a Monkee (whatever that was, hehe). Oooo that is a good comparison I think. With the Monkees you thought, "Well it's TV, we know we're being fooled a little anyway." And you knew it was...

Well there is the TV aspect yes. But the Monkees at least were good actors (don't laugh!) ;)

You know again I'm seeing a parallel with the past here. How in the '50s and early '60s the Rock n Roll pioneers were eventually deemed too inappropriate for youngsters and replaced with clean cut, squeeky clean carbon copy "singers" that made much of the music from that period downright painful...
