5 Taboo Topics

I hereby declare the following topics taboo...

1. You're so old, why aren't you pregnant yet?
Thank you to the 3 relatives who said this to me this week alone. I realize in your world view I should have had 10 children by now (having started at 19, naturally) but I don't share your view that kids are the *only* calling for women or that you have to be younger than 25 before you start.

2. Well?? Have you met anyone yet?
For my single ladies (and men) everywhere. This question is balls and shouldn't be asked. It, like point #1 suggests that the ultimate fulfillment for a person is a romantic relationship and that view should be discouraged.

3. Any plans for marriage?
Any plans for liposuction? Not everyone wants to get married, and if they do, this is salt in the wound, no?

4. Does my butt look fat?
Actually... yes ;) But we should all monitor what we say and think about our bodies - especially around young women/girls who don't need one more person influencing them to feel badly about themselves.

5. We're trying at the moment (giggle!)
Please, I don't want to picture you two naked.
