Pretty sure my sister is dating a tool

Hey, I get the concern and all that. Siblings should be concerned if their sister/brother is dating someone suspicious of some sort.

But no one has the right to tell the sister who she can and cannot date. It isn't OP's job to "let" the sister do anything.

What he's doing isn't "work".

This happened to me, as well. I'm a 34c. They sized me as a 32a. Pain, man. But SAP me just went along with it.

My seminary teacher jr and sr year forced us to memorize scripture mastery every day by singing stupid songs with the scriptures as lyrics. Because of that, I hate all of them.

Also, I'm suspicious of anything that would elevate itself like scriptures do. What are they? A group of words formed in such a way to sound intimidating and forboding and powerful. That doesn't give them any more influence, veracity, or "rightness" than any other set of words- a poem, an essay, a novel. Etc.

EXMORMON GIRL HERE:

I went through this same thing in my transition out of mormondom. I felt I was being too whorish, too many guys, too fast.

The church and the rest of the misogynistic world views women by their sexuality. They are either virgins or whores, and depending on who surrounds you, you are expected to be both somehow.

Something that helped me was watching a speech given by jean kilbourn. She is a feminist who studies society's relationship and treatment of women. You can see the speech on YouTube ("killing us softly 4")

Now, something that bothers me is the question of even having sex too much. Wat? Come on. Men are congratulated for having lots of sex, but women are labelled whores? The men must be having sex with SOMEONE, right? Forget what others think. I know it's hard, but you must realize that it is none of their business. It is only your safety and preferences that matter.

As for not finding a relationship... Don't cut out sex just because you think it will deter relationships. I had sex with a guy the first time he asked me out. We've been happily dating since November.

If you feel that you should personally slow down, then do. But never do it because you're concerned what others might think.

It isn't necessarily pastel, but it must be light- no neons. I'm just following the bride and grooms orders.

Thanks for the advice. I'll have to try this Garnier stuff.

Thanks. surprisingly enough, it was a 99 cent drug store lipstick. I was a bit nervous to try it because it's a bit more orange-y than I thought I could pull off, but might as well just give it a shot.

This is amazing. I'm not sure if I personally could pull it off, but it looks awesome and a lot of fun.

Also, I want to ask you guys: What to do about my eyelid/under eye???

It's basically genetic. My whole family has wrinkles around their eyes. But people have made fun of me for it. Telling me I look old, that kind of thing. You know those kiosks in the walk ways of malls? I've been stopped by a worker at one of those (a woman from Armenia) that sold facial lotions, cremes, and washes. She asked me how old I was. When I said 19 (this was last year), she gasped and told me she never would have guessed I was that young... :( She was a very aggressive saleswoman and was kind of rude ("you are NOT taking proper care of your skin if you have wrinkles!," "look at my skin, how perfect it is? It is because I take care of it and use this product," "I would have guessed you were at least thirty!"). That on top of other people making fun of me for it ("hey, grandma"), I'm kind of self conscious about it. It can be hard to put eyeshadows on because the wrinkles can get in the way. I don't have flat eyelids, and putting any eyeshadow line underneath my eye can be a nightmare due to the wrinkles.

Thoughts/advice?

edit: also, if you want to know what products I used, just ask and I'll get my kit out to get the names and everything.

There seems to be a growing trend in these imgur pictures of facebook posts. how are we supposed to know who all is talking if they're all the same color?
