Urine therapy????????

In a different blog, I commented about some poor Brazilian woman who holds the record for plastic surgeries - she's had over 40 different procedures. Her latest one was because she wanted to "look beautiful" for Carnival time. Fortunately for her, her husband is a pastic surgeon, so perhaps it doesnt' cost her anything - except the time lost from use of her body while it heals from plastic surgery, her mental health as she is clearly a deeply insecure woman, and the fact that her body will probably look exactly the same 100 years from now should anyone ever bother to dig her up. OR perhaps they'll just stick her in a corner somewhere as a sculpture after she dies, as there won't be anything left of her to decompose.

Anyway, everyone knows what urine is, right? IT's that yellow liquid that we pass out of our bodies, full of waste, but not solid waste such as goes to form the stool. But regardless....it comes out of our bodies, so who in the world got the bright idea that injecting someone with urine would cure anything, and who in the world is stupid enough to even try this type of therapy?

Women have been under attack since the dawn of time, really, but I'll just deal with the last 100 years. It's all about keeping up with the style. Flappers in the 20s weren't supposed to have breasts, or waists, and the trend toward skeletal woman has continued from then to the present day. Take a look at Marlene Dietrich in The Blue Angel, when she was Germany's idea of a sex symbol - all curves, and contrast that to the way she looked in the States - glamourous, sure, but probably didn't eat enough to keep a mouse alive.

The "beauty" business - whether cosmetics or dieting, is a multi-million dollar business, and they got that way by promoting insecurity in women. You must cover the splotches on your face, you must never have a tummy buldge, if a guy wants you to have bigger breasts, put in that silicone!, if he leaves you, put in that silicone so you can keep your next man!, when men turn to look at you it's not like they're eyeing you like you're a piece of meat, it's really a compliment!

It irritates me everytime I see little girls, or even teenagers, walking around in those short shorts that go right up to their butts... it'd be fine if guys had to wear the same short shorts as well, give us heterosexual women a bit of eye candy, but of course if a guy does it, it signifies one thing... he's gay and looking for a guy...

And straight guys don't think girls who wear short shorts aren't advertising their wares? Well...they don't really care what the girls think, I guess, they're just grateful for the eye candy.
