I get annoyed with all the "Hero mom makes ultimate sacrifice" news stories about women not doing chemo while pregnant only to die four months after giving birth. Though it wouldn't be my choice, I think they obviously have the right to make any medical decision they want for themselves and their families. I just can't stand news outlets grabbing onto these stories because someone made a decision that will (or has) potentially cost them their lives and trying to make us feel the feels with it. My beef is with the news, not the moms, in case I'm coming off like a cold-hearted bitch.
Again, not saying these moms shouldn't make the decision they did, just saying can't stand the news stories clogging up my facebook and CNN feeds. "Woman makes medical decision" is not newsworthy.
My UO (and I think its quite unpopular based off the responses to the Demi moore post on TB)- I dont think there is anything wrong with pregnancy photos that are a bit more intimate. I'm not talking topless with your man's hands covering your boobs, but the kind where your bump is showing and showing some skin. I think the photos of pregnant celebs in the magazines are gorgeous. Pregnancy is something that happens only a few times in your life, why not document how your body changed if you are comfortable with it? While I wont be hanging a semi nude photo of myself over the couch in my living room, I wouldnt mind having some photos like this taken as a keepsake for my husband and me.
I don’t find the skinny hipster boy look very attractive. I don’t like men in skinny jeans, don’t like men without any muscles/mass, and think they look like an 8 yr old child.
Based on the amount of lovetits your UO has, I'm going to guess mine is actually the UO on this forum: I love the skinny hipster look. When the skinny jeans are so tight they look like jeggings, that's just wrong, but I much prefer slim fit clothes on guys in general. And lots of muscles weirds me out - I prefer lean guys.

Here's my late-to-the-party UO: I like the newbies (the ones who aren't obviously stupid/crazy). It makes me happy to see people I don't recognize here. Maybe I don't care quite so much about the minutiae of their everyday lives (yet!), but I think they all have such fabulous potential! I mean, we were all newbies at some point, and you don't have to have been here from the very beginning to become an awesome reg later on, or even an awesome sometimes-poster or an awesome lurker/lovetitter. I don't even side-eye those who are still posting on TB (unless they are actively dissing those who left), because if they really are true newbies, how the heck are they supposed to know what the real story is? TB and MissRiss are telling them one thing, and we're telling them another. And let's be honest, ladies, a lot of us actually WERE legit acting like nasty trolls over there in the end (albeit perhaps deservedly so). I respect them for lurking/posting in both and trying to get a feel for what the real situation is before just following one crowd or the other.
