Then I found on TCM, what a REAL singer/performer does!! The King of Rock and Roll, the all time great....my man Elvis on TCM.....Elvis on Tour!!!! As I am watching, it is a conglomeration of appearances from all over, all around the USA!!! THIS is Rock and Roll!!!!

Old? I think not. Modesty is an old-fashioned concept though and, if we're honest, has been on the outs since the swingers challenged it in the 20's. Even Elvis was considered distasteful due to his own gyrations and style of singing which was a departure from the mainstream teeny-bop of the 50's.


I am a huge proponent of "less is more". I never show cleavage, I never talk about women things in "mixed company" or drop the F-bomb in mixed company even when I stump my toe and want to curse all of my ancestors and future descendants...lol


My husband calls this type of thing "class". Now, I think you can be modern and classy at the same time but that shouldn't have to involve gyration and nakedness!


I admire anyone who challenges any norm of the times and you are one of those by not conforming! It would serve our children well to have beacons of sophistication so that they could learn that they don't have to follow the masses who abandon all dignity and protocol!


I may sound old-fashioned and I may also be old but I stand by defending societal niceties such as respecting women for their MINDS and men for their ability to respect women and most especially their mothers, wives, daughters and sisters.


I don't even watch TV anymore because it is disappointing to see how much things have changed even since the 90s! Will we ever get off this downhill ride re: morals? Unlikely! But, good things come out of freedom of expression, too. I just can't think of any right now cuz I'm on my soapbox...LOL

Try Turner Classic movies, I think you will love them. I didn't care for the old movies on TV but these are wonderful. Hope you can get them on cable in the UK, you are right the rest of TV is pretty much dreadful.

Well, now I hear that one of the NFL football players from the Seattle Seahawks has been fined by the league for grabbing his own crotch after a touchdown - for the second or third time!!! What is it with younger men these days and grabbing onto their own private body parts in full view of a huge audience?!?! Seems like most men I know like more feminine parts and don't want an audience.

Yep, these young men, athletes and rap artists these days are obsessed with their plumbing and showing it off. Don't know why I just don't get it. Why? It's like saying "I have a big willy and here it is . . Enjoy" Yes its seems as that would be something to celebrate but not in public. Save that crap for the bedroom where it really counts.

LOL, I've always found the truly gifted would never think of and don't really find the need to advertise. Wonder if the sadly inadequate will ever learn that.

I used to work with a male nurse that was also into rock and roll ....had a band that played locally....nothing he could make a living at, but he was having a ball.... He used to bring all the industry magazines to work to read during his breaks...he had one there that had TONS of guitars of every brand and description, pictured and all about them.....and in the back of the magazine, there were all kinds of advertisements for all the "necessary items" your rock-n-roll star needs.

Included in those necessities, were these "appliances" the rock-n-roll star could insert into the front of his pants, so he would look like a BULL! They had all these pics of these things.......all different sizes, they looked realistic when tucked into those tight fitting jeans or skin tight leather pants......I was absolutely stunned and amazed.....I have been rather sheltered and did not really know, nor was I actually interested in, learning about such appliances.....but I have never forgotten how repulsive and stupid that seems to me....and then, coupled with all the crotch grabbing and actaully extensive holding onto their "packages" during almost the entire song, I wonder if maybe it could be because that appliance is falling down the leg of those pants and they have to grab onto it and hold it in place....pants are all baggy and slouchy now, so there is not much to keep that "package" tucked into their slouchy, "crotch to the knees" pants!

Yikes, Judy, I thought I'd heard it all but NOT SO! I had no idea some manufacturing company actually designed, made, advertised and sold fake male body parts to fill in their clothing!!! I knew women wore "falsies" and wore padded butts in their panties but fake male "members" is just too much!!! Who EVER came up with the idea - hey, I'm going to design, make and advertise something the truly lacking can use to fake it while dressed! LOL -what in the world do the ads call them? What in the world is this world coming to?

[Yorkiemom1]

Crazy, isnt it!!!! My cousin and I said we were going to make a little fur lined thing that they can carry in their pocket, so that when the "mood" strikes them, they have a little... ...........let me pm you this!!!! I dont want to get banned for something that is this stupid!!!

Oh, no, Judy, don't worry about it. I'll stay happily ignorant of this aspect of the under-developed out there.

OMG lol that is too funny. Thanks for the belly laugh, I needed this.

Now if that Seahawks' football player can't grab his crotch to keep his appliance or padding in place after scoring a touchdown in the Superbowl (NFL told him team would get penalty yards if he does) we'll maybe see what it is Judy is talking about, lying big as life in the endzone!!!!!!!!! That should spice up the Big Game!!!

Speaking of padded body parts! Did anyone see that Kim Kardashian ad yesterday where she was in the nude shapewear with the excessive butt padding?!?!?! She put her right hand on her hip and you could see a shadow appear around where the tip of a finger sunk into the butt padding!!!!! Aren't her booty and hips big enough without padding them?

[capt_noonie]

Are you sure that was padding??? If you have that big a butt, I'm sure it's not all muscle! Fat is soft, softer than padding.

[yorkietalkjilly]

IDK, you could be right. Still, ever curious - you know me - I googled her and her seemingly-padded booty to see what the internet types think and from what I can see from all the results, she's long been accused of padding her more than ample backside, even on Twitter! You know those pads like so many padded bras use - that kind of padding dents easily if you lay a fingertip on it! Besides, me and my busy fingers found the Feel Real clear Silicone Soft Jiggly Butt pads available for just regular old gals that seem awfully squishy per their ad so you can just imagine how a celebrity might be able to afford even squishier, softer, more realistic gel-type padding for more realistic booty padding! lol - I can't believe I'm writing these words!
