Xng, I don't know why I found that funny. I shouldn't, as I know how damn hard it is to walk on those things. They can't be comfortable. And we expect you to be graceful and poised, even dance on them. And I WANT women to continue wearing them.

*sigh* I'm such a hypocrite.

Maybe not, but heels or not, you are downright desirable!

I'm just not as poised as some women!
Me neither. Heels + clumsy ol' me = a trip to the hospital

Than why where them? I mean they pretty much mutilate your feet and legs. Some girls I know can’t sand them. they thing ‘you look taller’ isn’t good enough to go through that pain.

I was thinking along the lines of how not to sound chauvinistic about it.
{What's the deal with the little babydoll shirts?}

Well agene, why the hell I’m I going to do that with my feet when I’m tall enough not to have to. Plus, I’m never going to put that one off.

A babydoll shirt is a womens' shirt that has shorter then normal sleeves,and a tighter fit.They are usually made so a large section of your midriff is exposed(A la Britney Spears),but not all babydoll shirts are worn this high.Not to be confused with the "Spaghetti-Strap" shirt.

I don't object to anything about them,I'm just wondering why they became such a fashion fad almost over night? My theory is that girls wanted to imitate Britney Spears,and it became mainstream after that. Womens' clothes are mysterious like that,they hold secrets.

I could use some help with something here.

Does anyone know how to re-size an avatar picture so it would fit the allowed space?
The icon(seen below) I'm trying to use is:35.4 KB (36,289 bytes),which is too large for the 30,000 byte limit. And yet,it still tells me that the size is 80x80,so naturally I'm stumped over here.

-Any suggestions would be appriciated

All i did was re-save the jpeg, but this time with a slightly lesser resolution, thus getting it well below the file size limit.

I was watching the Simpsons earlier. Lisa tried being a Goth for about three seconds-- she called herself "Ravencrow Neversmiles"
