I thought about that too, Noelegy. I would imagine that even in colder climes, that it would get uncomfortable if one even had the heating on when they encased themselves in wool. Being one of those people that hates to put on a jacket unless it's absolutely necessary, it's hard for me to wrap my head around this entire concept. But I agree, if no one is getting hurt and it all exists between consenting adults, I don't think it would be fair to criticize it.
I agree with Alexander. And of those 18 people, how familiar were they with the taste of dog food that they could make a distinction? How familiar were they with pate? I don't know what dog food tastes like to say that anything I eat tastes like it. Though honestly, if dog food tastes like pate, then my dogs really have it made.
To each his own, because it's not my place to judge how people get their kicks if they aren't hurting anyone. But seriously, why? I'm just trying to get my head around what experiences in a person's life could possibly lead them to develop a wool fetish. It would actually be fascinating to hear why, and I am not trying to be funny or sarcastic. I'm serious.
People have died, we all have the potential to die if this becomes a pandemic and huffs and puffs and blows our ... oh never mind. I'm bad at this sort of thing.
Look, folks, the potential for pandemic is serious, and no one is making light of the confirmed dead or the sick. If you can't laugh at something like this and feel the need to be overly sensitive and dour, then being on the internet is probably a bad idea. Making jokes is often the best way for people to deal with frightening things, and we are all being bombarded with reports on swine flu twenty four hours a day. It's nice to have a laugh.
Who says that their heyday is being judged on sexual attractiveness, or that no one reading this has any notion of people aging?
For one, most people refer to their heyday as a time when they were younger than they are now. That is such a loose expression that reading so much into it is really just looking for something offensive to complain about. The fact that they made it big after they were a bit older is proof that none of this has anything to do with sexual attractiveness defining a woman's success.
It may not be impressive or neat if you aren't into that sort of thing, but I would bet that most of us enjoy looking at old family pictures to see what great-grandma looked like in her own "heyday". The difference here is that the women are not great-grandma, but stars that most people are familiar with.
Can you say, Dustbuster? ;)

The Tea Set just cracks me up.
Very interesting post. :)
