PapaHilarious Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 (edited) Being myself wrapped up in pregnancy bliss as I watch our little one grow inside his (or her) mother's womb, I found this recent front-page yahoo news photo extremely disturbing. Even though you could see the magazine just by walking in a grocery store, I won't post the actual picture, as I don't really know that it's appropriate. But here is an [url="http://www.11alive.com/news/article_news.aspx?storyid=107192&provider=top"]NBC news link[/url]. Clearly, the media's view of "beauty" is so intertwined with sexual power and lust that it can't even tell there's a difference. How sad PS - The article snippet is priceless... [size=3][quote]The singer says she learned she was pregnant while on her recent "Back to Basics" tour. "We were planning on starting to try after the tour. And so, I had gone off the Pill to prepare my body, because I didn't know how much time it would take. You've heard it takes some time—except with Power Egg and Super Sperm here," she says. "... I'm like, `Oh my god, can you believe it just happened?"'[/quote][/size] Edited November 29, 2007 by PapaHilarious Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paladin D Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 (edited) She isn't even attractive to begin with. I wouldn't want to touch her with a ten foot pole even if she offered herself. Edited November 29, 2007 by Paladin D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cathgrl83 Posted November 29, 2007 Share Posted November 29, 2007 Who said she was a Devout Catholic? Her mother said she was Catholic, but I never heard devout before. I'm a HUGE fan of her voice but I would most certainly not call her devout. She wasn't even married in the church. They got married in a Jewish Ceramony. (Did i spell that right? It looks wrong to me!) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
