Morning, all.
There's also a "style" article today about skinny people trying to be less skinny that is just -- headscratcher. I gather it's mainly men trying to grow man-breasts, but, like, is the word "lean" not okay any more? Lanky? Slim?http://www.nytimes.com/2006/02/02/fashion/thursdaystyles/02Fitness.html

It's a pretty constant thing.
I know I hang out in circles where strength is almost fetishized, but although men don't have as much pressure as women do, they do have it, and it's never pretty.
There are rules about what makes a man a man too. Just that they're not as often (or as harshly?) penalised for breaking them.
I had an argument about my race yesterday. Guy told me I wasn't black. He seemed to believe it at the start, too. I rounded it off by calling myself Jamaican, and not white, and he seemed to understand that I have a little more experience in the arena of who the hell I am than he did, and he changed the tone of the discussion.
How
weird.
Not weird like the people who think I'm Asian, but still weird.
What did he think you were?
White, I think. Dude, these lips are all the evidence you need, man.
Did I say weird?
I just tried to rip the tracks off the Lovesexy album and THEY'RE ALL ONE BIG TRACK. Jaysus.
