    I went to Paris Baguette again and am now less impressed. They bake their own bread and make their own cakes. But I think that the pastries are actually frozen and they defrost it. They just have a very good pastry factory.

    I agree it has to do with natural female biology, immaturity, narcissism and delusional greed conditioned by the digital and physical environment. All those millions of women who are constantly dumping men for minor issues to monkey branch to the 'master human race' are denying themselves & millions of men their chances, and lowering the birth rate. There are studies done which demonstrate that women's sexual selection is naturally 2.5 times more picky than men lol. They did studies where women only considered 20% of young men attractive while the men considered 50% of young women attractive. Remember Fabio? He was one of the iconic male models (often on romance novel covers) when I was growing up. He is now 64 years old and looking to 'settle down'. Basically he's lived like a hot woman except a few decades longer LOL. Fabio Lanzoni - Wikipedia Fabio Still Wants to Get Married and Have Kids at 63 (amomama.com) In high school and college it was obvious to us all that the vast majority of young male students did not have girlfriends, which was completely bizarre situation to the baby-boomer & greatest generation. Literally in high school & college years only a very small number of couples existed, the rest were busy with working & studying. It was a gigantic waste of opportunity for us all. Feminism + post-industrial service based/late stage capitalism + troubled economy is a recipe for massive social problems. I think the statistics are really telling- In Europe and in developed East Asia there is low birth rate. Japan, Taiwan, and South Korea have a horrible birth rate despite being developed. In the US there is a varying birth rate, some low, some higher. But millions of men and women pay the price. American psychological health is poor, so is it in Japan with its high suicide rate. Taiwan and South Korea I don't know but I wouldn't be surprised. In the end a good life is about balance, the traditional household with the woman working part time or at home makes for a better family life and raising of children. There is simply more time to allocate attention. Instead men and women are throwing too much of their lives away into working for the wealthy, shareholders, and the government.. Life is so very short. Years past like nothing.

    @Enrico_sw I was forced to read this book twice, once in high school and once in college. Our idiot administrators thought it was so important that the whole school had to learn its 'truths'. I read it a few years later after college and most of it was completely deranged & wrong. It is the product of Baby-boomer 1990s utopian & idiot journalism about the wonderful benefits of globalization, where the Chinese & the rest of Asia would be the manufacturing labor-slaves of the west and a college degree was a guarantee of a middle class lifestyle. There was a lot of propaganda about the power of financial "innovation", the precursor of massive financial disasters in the West... It couldn't be delusional today as globalization has now powered the East and the West is steadily declining every year culturally, socially, economically, politically, and militarily..
  5. natalie 6 years ago. She's considerably more muscular now.
  6. GRRM also put this real world dynamic in GOT. It was written as Rob Stark, the 'young wolf'. Bolton calls him "forever young.."
  7. The overall impression I get is that Will Smith is afraid of Jada for some reason and that she has some sort of leverage on him. With 2 pac that's an interesting thing that you bring up. That young guy who she cheated on Will is very young and successful. However all these people are nothing compared to Will Smith. Will Smith is one of the highest paid actors and has left behind a great career. Jada could not have married someone with less status and money. But Will seems to have screwed up his family and failed to be a good father and control his wife's excesses. 2pac is 'legendary' and 'sexy' in the way James Dean was for white women. Both were bad boys and attractive to many young women in an 'exciting' sort of way. Among black people he is was legendary for years, I think it has more to do with his death than his 'body of work'. This effect was also seen, although not so impactful with the death of Heath Ledger. Part of the appeal with these dead peter pans is that they were KIA in the prime of life with some iconic work, while they were rising. Women never saw them decline, either career-wise or physically due to age. So in way they are "immortal", like Jack in the movie Titanic. They never got old, never became unattractive, never became "boring", never lost their job, never had a serious crisis etc... Note that in this supposedly 'moving' scene with all those photographs the woman's financial benefactors who paid for her great life for decades is not focused on- it's just the peter pan that she knew briefly on a cruise.. James Dean - Wikipedia "He is regarded as a cultural icon of teenage disillusionment and social estrangement, as expressed in the title of his most celebrated film Rebel Without a Cause"
