Now I know not everyone is a xenophile, but I'm sure most of you have heard people complaining about the pressures to look certain ways. I find it a little confusing, personally, because I don't enjoy looking at discomfort on a female's face caused by wearing high heels or corsets, for example. I very much enjoy looking at someone happy.

To a degree, I do understand that people can feel hideous. I have had people look at me as if I was some sort of monster. It didn't feel very nice.

She ruined a [gross approximation] lipstick signing it for me between sets. I gotta get going, folks. Tide-silt's messing with the modem. Hope to get your opinions.
