Bondi, I never meant use it in a macabre generate high ratings way, I meant that it if it were to be shown, it should be in a responsible manner, in an educational manner.

And yes, if it had happened to be my family member and they had previously expressed a desire that footage of their death be used to responsibly educate people about the dangers of what they did with their life, then I would be willing to uphold their wishes and ensure that the footage was used in such a manner. That's not to say that it should be shown right now whilst interest in his death is still very high, that would be exploiting the footage, which is not what it should be used for.

There is a vast difference between what your average tabloid media editor and a responsible documentary maker would use the footage for, and it should be used for education, not exploitatively, as we frequently see with all news footage these days.

Well, now I've found this thread I could hardly not post a pic could I ?



PS let me know if the image is too big

I never make any lists (here or elsewhere), I've come to accept that I am exclusive

Very sad that he's gone at such a young age, and devasting for his parents, wife and kids.

Although, it was probably more likely that he'd die whilst filming in the water than whilst filming on land. Man is much more adept and fast at moving whilst on land (no water resistance), and therefore a lot easier to keep out of the way of teeth, tails, etc. Anything happening in the water was/is a lot harder to move out of the way quickly, especially when you're a land dweller.

Should the footage be shown to the public though? Assuming the family says yes, I think it should be, not as a macabre horror way of pulling in viewers, but as a demonstration that even those creatures considered docile are dangerous when they need to be and that they should be accorded as much respect as those we deem the most dangerous. I think that's something Steve would have respected and wanted people to see.

I haven't posted for a while....

High heels force you to push the hips forward when standing/walking, so it changes the posture to something 'more attractive', hence they feel sexy.

Only way I've found to get used to wearing heels, is to just wear them each day, a bit longer each time, start out for half an hour on day one and then an hour on day two, 1.5 hours on day 3 and so on until you're comfy with the time period you want to be out and about in high heels.

5'11" here, so for the most part I wear flat shoes, just because when I'm around the house I'm mostly barefoot anyway, and for walking around town, flat shoes are much more comfortable.

Why do shoes feel different when you get them home after buying them? mostly it's because of the time of day you buy them, for all women (and men too I would assume), your feet will swell up slightly (not necessarily noticeably) during the day, and this can affect how comfortably your new shoes will fit if you buy them in the am and then don't try them on again until the evening after a day out and about. (sorry for that knowledge, big wide feet tends to make shopping for shoes a pain, and you learn the little tricks )

There is no amount of money in all the world that is worth your life, or anyone else's life, at the hands of an armed robber. You did exactly the right thing, better even if you were the first to react, you showed the rest of the people there what to do. You prevented a robbery from escalating to something worse.

That said, you might want to see if you can get some counselling. I'm not saying you'll need it for life, but especially as you seem to be working all the time, plus school, I think you could probably use a neutral person to talk to and discuss what happened. Being at the wrong end of a gun is not something that happens to everyone, it has an effect, and it's worth taking the time (and cash if necessary) to make sure it has the least effect on your future as possible.

It's really hard to put a 'limit' on what is BBW/SSBBW and what isn't.

Using Weight and/or dress size isn't necessarily the best way, eg, 170lb at 5' may be considered BBW, but not for someone who's 6'5", same with dress sizes really.

Also, what someone may consider 'normal' other people (who only like the skinny rake look for example) will view as being BBW.

Again, i don't think you can really necessarily say that the girl will know/view themself as, on quite a few BBW sites you'll see girls that probably wouldn't be considered as BBW by most people, but they probably had a SO and/or family who make them feel 'bigger' so they view themselves as being BBW.

It's a hard category to define really as it mostly depends on the individual's likes and dislikes, although there maybe some women for whom the category most definitely applys, there are also quite a number who consider themselves as BBW (but probably are just 'normal' in the view point of many people)) and just as many who perhaps should define themselves as BBW (in the eyes of others) but who see themselves as 'normal'.

IMO, it's up to the individual's themselves as to how they want to view themselves, but it's difficult to define the parameters as what makes what in order to make it a formal grouping, without taking into account things like height and so on.

edit ps: oh, and I most definitely consider myself in the BBW category, but you're only going to see close up Booby shots here to minimise the 'nasty' comments, which I'm happy to ignore personally, but I don't think they should be up to discourage others. Especially as all a rude/nasty comment does is show how narrow-minded/small-minded and prejudiced the note leaver usually is. Nobody expects everyone to like what they see, we all have different preferences, but there's no need to be rude and nasty about someone just because they aren't what you like personally.

1) My opinion, she's not staying in the marriage 'for the kids'. If the marriage was bad enough, she'd be out the marriage and take the kids with her. In a bad marriage, the kids are better off out of it so they don't see daily bad behaviour and believe that's the way to grow up. I think she's staying in the marriage for her herself and the lifestyle it gives her, ie the benefits of a family, security, and the ability to have 'fun on the side'.

Now, she's the one cheating not you, she's the one that needs to work out what she wants, but why not remove yourself from the inevitable shit that's gonna land when either a) the husband finds out and/or decides he doesn't like what she's doing or B ) she decides eventually to drop the marriage and expects you to take up the slack?

I think it's probably the opinion of most folks on here that you deserve better than that

2) yep, it's exhibitionism, although if you do it without SO knowing, then I guess it could be considered somewhat iffy on the cheating front....

Girls then use that number as number of centimetres and convert to inches to get the REAL size

As I'm late night lurking instead of heading to bed, thought I'd leave you an image (once i figure out the tags ) Hope it's ok

hehehe, it's just a last flick through the threads before I head up to bed, I have to work in the morning , but you all have fun

no problem, if you want to read around it a bit, get other people's experiences, www.bmezine.com has a load of personal experience stories and advice that can help make a more informed choice.

I'm just kind of hanging around several boards atm, not much else to do as I have to be at work tomorrow morning, so no late night for me

I liked your pics too Hot Mama

Actually, tongue piercing was an option I'd thought about for a while, but then decided that even if I could cope with the initial healing, I think I'd be worried about chipping my teeth with the balls, and as I've had a lot of expensive dental work done and quite a bit still to go, I didn't think it was good idea.

As regards the tongue piercing, I'm pretty sure I read that the advice was that to be good for oral, then it needs to be a bit further forward on the tongue for men, and a little further back for women, to put it in the best spot , but then the prime consideration has to be avoiding a vein in the tongue first anyway .

Good luck with it Hot Mama, and if it turns out not as you expected, you can always retire/take it out anyway, nothing lost

My personal experience re: sensitivity is that it made the nipple a whole lot more sensitive than it was before, and it was still pretty sensitive before the piercing too.

If I'm wearing a bra (which I do for most of the day for doing things like going to work, shopping, etc) then there's really no difference between being pierced and unpierced for me. No bra and fitted tops (ie not loose) is a lot like wearing a bra, if there's no material movement all the time, then neither nipple is being stimulated. Loose tops however, I feel it all the time. For me, it was a win situation as I'm wearing either a bra or a fitted top most of the time so not much chance of over stimulation during normal day. One thing I did start to notice once I had the nipple pierced though (ie for the few days just after it was done), was just how many time during the day I'd knock/brush into stuff with my boobs! All previously un-noticed.

Only other thing with being pierced I'd say is, if you have a problem with needles (like I do, hello nearly passing out when having a round of vaccinations for travelling), then looking down at your nipple just after the needle's gone threw and the piercer has just turned around to get the jewellry to put in, is not a good idea. Although what I remember from when I did look, was that the needle looked huge

I just finished reading the nipple size thread, so thought I would end my 'lurker' only phase and ask :

Which do you prefer? Nipples with piercings, or nipples without piercings?

those of you who like the piercings, would you rather see a balanced set (ie both nips pierced) or is it a single nip piercing that does it for you?

I like the look of pierced nips personally, and have no preference for single or double pierced.
