Ahem

Bastion: The Last Tank Crew

"Well, I think we should save the heavy stuff for later. I mean, I don't think we're about to have a full on war, so we should be fine if we're just quick on our feet."

Hana then started to help Smokey move some of the spare rounds. She hoped she was right, that these drifters wouldn't turn out to be too much of a hassle. In her own opinion, the team had already taken on too many responsibilities, and even though they were holding the moral high ground, she could only hope that their inventory would back them up.

Once the last round was moved, Hana thanked Smokey and motioned to him in Kirin's direction, remembering Drake's order. She then took her seat again, taking a moment to check her equipment before fixing the sights on the drifters. They were slowly moving, and the slightest trace of anxiety started to wash over her.

That's why I would choose tall AND strong ;)

Okay, I'm done.

I don't mean in a literal sense, but it's the idea that the guy is "taller, stronger" etc.

I mean, that's why women with curves are deemed as more attractive. Wider hips = more likely to be able to have kids. It's pretty much the caveman/woman in us talking.

It's more so the whole protective thing as well. I'm extremely short so in order to compensate, I'd look for tall guys. I mean, I would date guys of average height, but I believe that's somewhere up in 5'9 for men. I definitely wouldn't date short guys though. I mean, who would help me get stuff up in the last shelf?

Genevieve Marceaux - Strip Mall

"That should be good for now..." Genevieve said, walking past Gaia. In all honesty, she wasn't too concerned with the unconscious body. She wasn't the instigator and she was just defending herself, and beyond that, it might as well be a matter of "he said, she said."

For a split second, the thought of waking up her attacker to confront her crossed Genevieve's mind. Suck up enough damage to get a conscious response, but not too much as to weaken herself, and then question her. But even though the curiosity was eating at her, Genevieve knew without a doubt that such move was a stupid one.

"On it!"

She grabbed the map, slipped it in one of the inside pockets of her jacket, and then briskly made her way to her bike. After putting on her helmet, Genevieve started up her bike and waited for Judah.

I was crushing on someone I met in school for years, and I mean literally years. He was about 5'7, but he was the smartest person I've ever met, and I'm not talking about academics. He always had an answer for everything, and a damn good one. We were friends but we never dated, even though I would occasionally ask him (and he claims he asked me once).

We lost contact for a while then my defenses and expectations went up. If others had them, so should I.

Haven't looked back since.

Great post, btw. I agree with the author in that it's fine both women and men have their expectations, as well as take the advice that they should venture outside of their little perfection bubble.

I mean, the internet wasn't nowhere near terrible prior to 2015, but Paid did lie during that interview. I'm scared the situation might get worse from everything I've seen circulating around the net, and in today's world, it's very plausible.

I think this is one of those times where people should hit the pause button on their political alignment.

If they do away with net neutrality, then I'm moving to Canada, or any other English-speaking country. I mean, this is insane...
