Summer Flower and Fellow PC Posters,

This is a strange time in America. Plastic looks and plastic money is definitely forefront in our society.

My bone structure is such that I have never been able to have a tiny waist. Over the years I have come to accept that. Since moving to a rural area, without sidewalks to exercise on my figure has really gotten out of hand.

I'm trying to process something that happened to me in school yesterday. I teach at a community college, and one of my students is a 50-something man. The class is Human Relations, and I had been lecturing on interpersonal communication skills. He came up to me at break, and told me his wife had problems with men looking at her breasts instead of making eye-contact when they spoke to her. Then he went onto say she was large-chested, which I had already figured out.

Maybe it was his tone, or how or where he looked at me, but I felt demeaned by the whole experience.
