The Italians and French don't seem to have any trouble.
Yes i know many men have the same problem.

Is it ...

"... find it so difficult to dress classy?"

or

"... find it so difficult to dress classily?"

[maggiebee]

"classily" I think but wouldn't swear to it.

Some of the dresses are ok, but the tattoos are awful.

// Lovely dresses and hats, but the tattoos are a no no for me.//

you're talking about the men, right ?

19 is the most common age for women to have children
( modal ) so that means more 19 y o are pregnant than 18 y o or 23 y o

actually I think the teenage issue ( there are different problems if you have children later than 29 ) was more of an issue in the late seventies

that is more under 16s got pregnant in the late seventies than they do now. But I couldbe wrong - old man's memory etc

Thanks ummm.

Peter. I already have Sgt Troy, incorrect, I know, but I much preferred Terence Stamp to Alan Bates ;)

Surely this is a thread about ladies frocks at a horse race, or have I totally misunderstood the OP?

[douglas9401]

A success story, we're well on the way to a classless society.

[B00]

im baffled too mamya, not at all sure why we jumped from tatts and dresses to teen pregnancies?

[ummmm]

Not really, Mams, not when the OP puts down British women.

[ummmm]

B00...because of Sqad. He seems to think that teenage British girls get pregnant, get a council house and live off benefits....and have no class.

[Sir Alec]

Why was my answer removed? Aren't we allowed to say the truth to Sqad? Is his opinion more important than mine? I don't care if we are the abortion capital of Europe. Maybe the women involved had valid reasons for their abortions. They are not all chavs looking for a council house. Some women can't afford another child and have got pregnant because of ridiculous religious beliefs that prohibit them from using contraceptives.
This will probably be removed as well, so I hope ummmm is around to read my thanks for her sympathy!

[Bathsheba]

What the fekk's happened here then?
It's a joke.

[ummmm]

I seen it Alec x

[Mamyalynne]

Sir Alec, maybe because the remark you replied to has gone also?

So often generalisations are made with no thought who they hurt.

I have 2 wonderful daughters and they do not fit any of the stuff I occasionally read on here from a few here (one exception is , youngest Daughter loves her tattoos- her money her choice)

[VHG]

Do some of these women (and men) realise how stupid their tattoos look?

I was in Morrison's today and a guy had a vest on and shorts and he had cartoon character tattoos all up his arms and legs, he looked totally ridiculous.

And in a few years time, when the trend for tattoos goes away, all these people are going to have to rush off and pay thousands to have them removed.

Ghastly.
