*uncomfortable* topics.

I am sick and tired of people being afraid of expressing their opinions.  This is America, hun... in case you're not into history, lemme give you an update: we have free speech and free press.  So don't be scared.  Let it out!
-I don't know about you, but I am loving the new ABC family show The Secret Life of the American Teenager.  It's obviously a very real issue today, so we can learn from things like that.  It may be a bit controversial, but we should discuss those things.  If we run from them, they'll only progress and become even worse than they were before.
-GAY PEOPLE ARE NOT LOWER BEINGS!  Honestly, I thought we were smarter than that.  Just because someone has different preferences, it doesn't make them any less of a person.  Another thing- just because a guy is vegetarian or into theatre, it doesn't make him gay!  It makes him sensitive... and, newsflash: sensitivity is hot in almost every girl's book.  Culture is good.  It won't kill you.
-I just got the new issue of Girl's Life (GL), and I was outraged to see that as a response to a young girl with sweaty hands, they suggested a Botox injection for a few hours of no sweat.  I was incredibly angry at this, because Botox is tested on animals.  I was disappointed that one of my favorite magazines would go along with something so wrong.  On a lighter note, last month they had an article, Not So Boy Crazy.  I really respected the fact that they had enough guts to go after a topic like that.

That's about it for now :)  Toodles, and check out T.S.L.A.T. on ABCfamily on Tuesday nights at 7 p.m. Central Time.
