      <title>Re: Jesus/ Ethnicity?</title>
      <description>Skin color is based on heritage, and your ancestors skin colors are based on climate/ sun protection and genes. Thus, Jesus would have likely been dark haired, dark eyed and dark skinned. not to say that for certain, he could have had blue eyes or sandy blonde hair (very unlikely but its possible). But for certain he would have had darker skin (not African American dark) but middle eastern. And even if he hadn't he would have had darker skin from working in the sun all day. </description>

      <title>Re: How can I make my boyfriend happy?</title>
      <description>*Sigh* this is clear cut, black or white decision ... Either you like him or you don't. If you like him you will stay with him no matter what anyone (especially someone on the internet) tells you. I recommends not being with him if he treats you like crap, I don't even know you and I'm sure you deserve better than someone who doesn't love you. a relationship is 50/50 you give and take equally. If you love him and he doesn't treat you right then he doesn't love you 50% back. If you put him through a bunch of crap then stop if you like him enough. Dont be so selfless (if you really mean it or not) be a little selfish, its only your life after all. 

I'm a little old to give much good advice, to be honest the people that would give you good enough advice wouldn't want to deal with all the drama, and you probably wouldn't listen to advice from someone who really knows that you should drop his @$$ like a 1000 pound rock. Good luck, take care of yourself </description>

      <title>Re: Any baby names? (either gender)</title>
      <description>if you are looking for pretty, normal and slightly non conventional names I like: 

GIRL: Gwendolyn (Gwen) Elisabeth (Lisa, Elle) Arianna (anna) and Nadia  
BOY: Nickolai (nick) , Donovan (don) , and Mica (mike) 

most of them also have a very basic name in case the child one day wants to pick between 2 names. 

ps, yeah, call the cops. honestly unless you are posting that for attention, you are not helpless. They can get a paternity test on the baby and prove him guilty. good luck I guess</description>

      <title>Re: My 11 year old has a "boyfriend"</title>
      <description>Make sure you are open to her wanting to "date" on a certain level. if you can call it that. Just offer to let her and her "boyfriend" and a couple of their friends over to the house to watch movies, and hang out, that way you can keep an eye on them and even hear (without eaves dropping) snipits of conversations to make sure they aren't talking about sex/drugs. 

The world is changing. I am 18 and have been engaged for almost 3 years now. Crazy, I know. I was young, but I am sure everything for her is social and just regular preteen/teenager stuff. AT 11 I dont expect her to even take her own relationships seriously. By the time you read this she will probably have had 3 or 4 "boyfriends" after this one already. 

just like I said, let her hang out around the house. Be the "cool" parent and let her "chill" with her boyfriend and their friends and you can keep an eye on her. Not in a nosy parent way but an "I'm looking out for your safety" kind of way. Just note severe personality changes, they can be bad. But if you let her hang around the house you can see more how they interact with each other and how her personality is changing at this time in general. It will also let you get to know the boy better. You dont have to be nosy, especially if you are TRUELY open with her sharing things with you. The best parent is one who listens and accepts what the child is saying. She will do what she wants if you forbid her or not, better to know a few things you wont like hearing and being able to help guide her through it than not knowing and possibly risking her harm. 

I wish you lots of luck. Oh, and one last bit of advice, make sure you tell her you love her and comfort her a lot, because there will be times when she is going to go through things that she CANT tell you, but she will still need your support to make the right decisions on her own. </description>

      <title>Re: What's a good way to get rid of pimples?</title>
      <description>it is imposable to get rid of them for any CERTAIN way.  your question is also very vague.  If you mean right away, all you have to do is wash your face every morning and every night and put toothpaste (white colored not blue or green gel) on the particular pimples overnight and they will get drastically better. Not completely gone but a TON better. If you mean long term, just wash your face with a good scrub, I have had bad acne for year and years, and then I tried this cream with witch hazel in it and its clearing up fast. Ask your dermatologist/ drug store clerk about scrubs with Witch Hazel. </description>

      <title>Re: Should I let her shave her legs?</title>
      <description>let her, I say that only because everyone else she knows does it. Its inevitable to not let her. I shaved my legs at 12 when I joined cheer leading classes and it made me fit in better. Its sad to say but true. Besides, she will eventually, its better to let her trail and error now  than to wait until she either does it herself like the last post or ends up being made fun of at practice. Nair can irritate young girls skin, make sure she tests it first if she wants to use nair. </description>

      <title>Re: How to make my face less flat?</title>
      <description>this is complicated but extreamly amazing when you do it right: 

Buy powder foundation that matches your skin color and the next size darker. in places that you naturally have shadow on your face, neck and around your ears put the darker foundation with a makeup brush. LIGHTLY ... it will deepen your facial features. Expierement with it and it will work if you do it right for your face. Also use bright colored makeup without overdoing it, like blue/green eyeshadow, red/blue/green eyeliner and light blush on you cheek bones. This is the best way to fix a "flat" looking face, I have the feeling your just being too hard on yourself. You look great to me!</description>

      <title>Re: How to stretch your ear?</title>
      <description>To answer about using household items, that is not a good idea, its not very expensive to get plastic earrings and you don't have to be a certain age to buy them. Most malls have a store that sells good gauges.

I don&#8217;t recommend going beyond a 6 or a 4 if you have either 1. Restrictive parents, 2. Severe doubts about how you want to gauge your ears or 3. Are afraid of not going back. 

You're parents will most likely not notice a stretch as small as a 16, 14 or even a 12. So go to those sizes without fear. Any higher and your parent will notice. However my parents didn't want me to gauge my ears (and I was almost 18 for heaven sake) and I got to a size 6 earlier with almost no protest. However my parents hadn't seen my ears without the earrings. I myself,now, have my ears pierced 8 times each (that 16 total) on just the outer cartilage along my ear. I have the bottom 2 gauged, the first to a 00 the second to a size 6. Its fun, but a size 8 is the highest you can go without a plan HOLE in your ear. 

FURTHER ADVICE:

4 is the most safe UNIVERSAL size to COMPLETELY recover from (back to a size 18 or 20). However a good majority of people will say 0. 

As for the matter of sizing, go size by size and wait AT LEAST 1 week between each one. The sizes are 20 or 18 at any regular stud. The next sizes are 16, 14, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4, 2, 0, 00 and then they start to measure by parts of an inch. 

If you plan on going to a large gauge, enjoy stretching them slowly, earrings are expensive and its best to use plastic if at all possible. Have FUN going up to bigger sizes!!! 

To safely put a gauge in for even the most sensitive person is to let warm water run on your ear and put it in when you are in the shower, the warm water helps your ears stretch. Make sure to continue daily care like you just got your ears pierced again.  

If ANYTHING looks abnormal besides a little redness and pain make sure to check with a doctor/ piercing specialist or take them out.  

1. Bleeding can happen normally when the piercing is first stretched. 
2. Pain beyond what you can normally stand is not good, you are stretching too fast. 
3. Careful of where you buy earrings/ get them pierced. 
4. There are some (but very few) people that get headaches from wearing the heavy earrings. 
5. The Myth: Gauges stink horridly! ... FACT: NONONONONO!!! they don&#8217;t have to stink, if you clean them daily and after a week take them out to clean them they will not smell so bad other people can smell it. YOU might be able to when you are cleaning them though U_U. 
6. There are such things as FAKE or FAUX gauges for the slightly less adventurous people. (Though they are slightly hard to find) 
7.  Great places to get gauges online are: http://www.mspiercing.com - www.amazon.com - http://piercingmart.com 
8. Off-line, I recommends Hot Topic or Spencers, however they are a little expensive.

Finally, make sure you have considered gauging your ears seriously, especially if you plan to go up to big sizes. It is a really fun and addicting process, but it is also kind of painful at times, and can be bad if you are under a lot of stress and/or already have other things that hurt (I.e. a broken bone, stitches or any bad strain) 

I hope any of this information is helpful, I want to post this as many places as possible. I took 3 years to do my research before gauging my ears (mostly because of restrictive parents). I have read articles, talked to my doctor, talked to professional body artists, many many many friends with gauges/piercings.  ^_^ I hope this helps!!!
