Forget becoming a virgin again...I'd settle for being as in-shape as I was at 18...
Very good points.
Yup, and it's a damn shame. It's mainly because of all the estrogens (read that as soy products) that boys are eating (sometimes right out of the womb). It's not that they don't have enough testosterone, it's that their estrogen to testosterone ratio tips too far to the estrogen side. They are being demasculanized.
The length of an average erect penis has dropped in recent studies to anywhere from 5.1 inches to 5.72 inches depending on which study you believe. Contrast this to the 6.34 inches in the Kinsey study. If you've got young boys, get them off the soy products and feed them meat as raw as they can stand it and raw milk if you can get it.
Wife: "Honey, I would like to have a hymenoplasty so I can be a virgin again."
Husband: "Let me get that tarp off the motor home in case they need extra some extral material."
One clinic boasts on its Internet site that its practitioners "can repair the hymen as if nothing occurred". Many who undergo the procedure, which costs between US$1,800 ($2,900) and US$5,000, also ask that their vaginas be tightened, doctors say.
How ironic that those who easily, willingly, and carelessly lost their virginity and probably made fun of those for keeping it, are now paying big bucks for having a fake one.
Queens in ancient Greece traveled to the healing center at Epidaurus from time to time to have their virginity renewed. I rather doubt that the temple priests did plastic surgery. But I've always wondered exactly what they did do. Any idea? Anyone?
A "starting fresh" ping.
It was Oscar Levant who said it, and if you remember him, you'll realize he didn't "know" her "personally."
Why not start a fad of surgically implanted lower lip plates, like those that some African women wear? The rings look ridiculous, the procedure would be painful, expensive, and could go wrong in spectacular ways, and men could be blamed for the whole fiasco. It's just the thing for Western women.
I tried to talk two women out of breast augumentation surgery last year. Both looked fine without the procedures. Of course they both went ahead and both are happy with the results.
I cannot fathom the appeal of self-mutiliation.
He wore the same brand of loafers as Gore Vidal.

What will they think of next.
Humans are flipping weird!
They would sew in a new hymen.

OMG! I read this and thought, what on earth is this numberonepal talking about?!
I never read up on soy before because I don't use soy products.
So I looked this up.
Soy: Is it Healthy or is it Harmful?
By Dr. Joseph Mercola
with Rachael Droege
In recent years soy has emerged as a near perfect food, with supporters claiming it can provide an ideal source of protein, lower cholesterol, protect against cancer and heart disease, reduce menopause symptoms, and prevent osteoporosis, among other things. But how did such a perfect food emerge from a product that in 1913 was listed in the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) handbook not as a food but as an industrial product?
According to lipid specialist and nutritionist Mary Enig, PhD, "The reason theres so much soy in America is because they [the soy industry] started to plant soy to extract the oil from it and soy oil became a very large industry. Once they had as much oil as they did in the food supply they had a lot of soy protein residue left over, and since they cant feed it to animals, except in small amounts, they had to find another market."
And another market was what they found. To put it simply, after multi-million dollar figures spent on advertising and intense lobbying to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), about 74 percent of U.S. consumers now believe soy products are healthy.
If youre thinking the health claims surrounding soy sound too good to be true you just may be right. Soy has become another misunderstood food category, to be added to the ranks of coconut oil, saturated fats and vegetable oils. The two former have gained a negative reputation where a good one actually applies, but vegetable oil, along with soy, have emerged with sparkling reputations that cover up the truth.

Remember what we were speculating on one of our hijacked additive threads?
I saw this comment that I thought was odd in post 203.
Well guess what? It seems that odd comment in 203 was the missing piece to the puzzle we wondered about with food allergies!
