    In reply to New Trends in Iraq "Not Really About Fashion, But Freedom"
    Let's hope stabilization and development continue, and that women in Iraq can enjoy greater freedom of expression, through fashion choice or not, as time goes on. I just feel like we've fucked up so much for these people.

    On a purely anecdotal note, I have a friend who is a refugee from Iraq. She wears hijab and is a pretty strict Muslim but does salon-type services for women here, like brazilian waxes, eyebrow threading, etc. She always says that just because she chooses to live a certain lifestyle and express that through modest style and dress, she doesn't think other women have to do that. I think it's awesome, and she always says that that is how she was raised - that everyone has freedom of choice and should be respected for it.

    Hey I was wondering something the other day and was wondering if some of you military types (Ginmar, Adah) could clue me in either way. Hopefully this isn't too much of a digression.

    Did the soldiers in Iraq ever try to organize sports for the local kids as part of a "hearts and minds" kind of thing, or is that too Disney? And would something like girls' soccer or field hockey or basketball ever take off? Do you think it would have any sort of positive ripple effect?

    @BearDownCBears: I don't know if there was an organized program, but several of my friends (Marines) that were stationed there talked about playing pick-up games all the time with kids in the streets. Basically they didn't go anywhere without a soccer ball. They said it really helped diffuse tension in some neighborhoods, especially since the kids were better players than they were.

    I think Operation Give even started collecting soccer ball donations to send to Iraq.

    I'll not defend Audrina's outfit, but that may be the first picture I've seen of her where she doesn't look completely dead behind the eyes.

    Is that Jamie Lee Curtis's daughter? She looks like a stunner.

    I do not like Saldana's dress. At all.

    Cheryl Tiegs has a commerical hawking countertops playing around here and no matter where she moves in the ad, her breasts are front and center.
    I think she is quite proud of them. I know I would be.

    Do not look directly into Leona Lewis's dress. It can cause damage to the light-sensitive rod and cones in your retinas and could cause temporary, or in extreme causes, permanent blindness. If you wish to view Leona's dress, please do so through a filter or via projection through a pinhole camera onto a white surface.

    I guess what I'm trying to say is that her dress is really frigging shiny.

    Audrina Patridge is identified as an "actress" here. I don't know about that, but I do know that this "suit" looks ridiculous.

    That suit makes her look like a frilled lizard, reacting not to a predator, but to the sweet, sweet glow of the media.

    @IndignationCoordinator: That's just what she looks like in her natural habitat.

    and don't you have to "act" like something to be an "actress", or do the quotes negate that?

    I love love love Weaver. However, no to those shoes and that length, which is rarely flattering on anyone.

    Curtis' son looks like a mini version of the Mac dude.

    Saldana can do no wrong.

    I want to like Rodriguez's dress, but it's a bit promy.

    Why was Patridge there? No, seriously.

    Not crazy about the tees under suits thing that RDJ and JD have going on. Either would have looked so much better with a nice shirt underneath.

    How come RDJ is wearing a white button-down in one picture and a black tee in the next? Was he overheated?

    And couldn't Jude have put the scarf over his jacket? Is he in need of a Neckie?

    So many questions. The women look awesome, though.
