Instead she wants that part to be gone from her, by being cured by 'The Man'/Company. Even worse, she buys into that she needs to be 'cured' like there is something 'wrong' with being strong.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12817958532654236542noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4627296422044380231.post-7682986541282979272007-10-29T09:41:00.000-04:002007-10-29T09:41:00.000-04:00I cant stand either of those shows. she is cute bu...I cant stand either of those shows. she is cute but nothing could save either of themChemical Robotikshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01416629418849352437noreply@blogger.com
