These Hips Cause Trouble (so the icon says) And I Have Hips!
Is everyone watching the Oscars? Is that why my friend's page is dead? It's been slow all day... WHERE IS EVERYBODY? *wibble*
Also, this video was interesting to me:

I find it interesting mostly because I've been thinking a lot about this issue in regards to my weight loss - will I suddenly be more desirable to the average male when I've lost a lot of weight? Most likely. Will I be flattered? Yes. Will it piss me off? Yes. That's not to say I won't appreciate it or let the anger of it stop me from enjoying the situation, but if my body shape was the only thing stopping certain guys from finding me attractive, then why does it feel like it actually has more to do with my personality? I can't lie and say that being thinner probably won't boost my confidence; I have a lot of insecurities, and most of them have to do with my body weight and image, and a lot of those insecurities fuck with my brain enough that I sometimes act like a crazy, emotional, needy person. And that's just not attractive, is it? And when I have a crush, I act like an idiot anyway, so that doesn't help. Gah, I don't know. I guess I probably think about this shit too much. But the subject warrants some thought, right?
