This is a few years old, from when I graduated from high school. I had to scan it, so it doesn't look very good, but I love this dress and I wanted to post it 

[Pfil]

And here are 2 more I edited some days ago but didn't find time to post them.
They are from the same trip of the 1st picture I posted.

On this one I'm alone...

[Pfil]

...and on this one I'm with a friend I met during holidays.

[Dark Nemesis]

You look like a princess in that dress.....

[Pfil]

Thanks! 
Very kind of you!

[Laina]

Pfil, you're gorgeous. You have the body of a model, seriously. Especially in that last picture-your legs look so long! May I ask how tall you are?

[Pfil]

You make me blush! Thanks Laina!
I'm not tall, really. I have a tiny body.
I wish more people would have told me that things when I was in high school... or right now in my town at least.

[Aridale]

sounds like you live in a pretty lame place

[Pfil]

It is a lame place, indeed. It's the karma of being a "nerd" who likes anime, manga and games in a little town where most people are SUPER conservative.
Not to mention they don't know other things about myself... they would crucify me.
But you all make me feel really good here with your sweet words 

[Abnormal Freak]

I agree on you having some real nice legs.



That's coming from a Christian conservative, by the way (though not ultra conservative).

Thanks!
I've been raised with Christian beliefs too, but people here seems to think that anime, manga and games are weird when you are in high school, because you have to do what everyone does, and more weird when you grow up, because they are "kids stuff".
Although, truth be told, I'm not conservative (you know what I mean if you've been reading some past posts I wrote  ).
I've been thinking... if my legs are so popular, I will take picture of my legs, so I don't show my face, but everyone is happy anyway, heehee! (just kidding   )

[GuyStarwind]

It's not me but here's a picture of my brother and his new wife. They got married Saturday. Thought I'd share.

Nice looking couple there.

People have their beliefs and convictions. Sometimes they can be based on living humble lives, other times they can be based on strange, sometimes unbiblical ideas. A specific social group will tend to hold on to the same or similar ideas. Just kinda the way things go and I don't begrudge anyone any of it.

My dad thinks video games and anime/cartoons are for babies (he even said that to me a few times when I was a kid even, like 8–12 years old) but he's never prevented me from enjoying any of it. He didn't really like the more violent games and I'm sure he'd have some beef with the sexual content that was in a few anime I enjoyed then, but he's been cool in trusting me to do what's right.

Granted, I used that freedom to get into some very sleazy horror/exploitation films in recent years but I've recently become convicted of that by the Holy Spirit and have weeded a lot of the more extreme movies out of my collection.

It's always OK for people to think what they want to think, provided they let everyone else have their own preferences and live in their own world.

Yes, the problems arise when people won't let those who believe and act differently from themselves, but do no objective harm to others, alone. And try to legislate their own religious values onto other people who do not share or want to be confined by those values.
In your case specifically Pfil I've said before and I'll say again that I don't find the idea of an all powerful all knowing God who created the universe compatible with bi or homosexuality being a sin, since God would have known you'd be gay the moment he created the universe and therefore chose to make you that way.

Don't think a supreme being would be that worried about what I had in my video collection personally. But different strokes for different folks, as long as it doesn't harm others do what makes ya happy.
