Except for the fact that she literally died from it after instead of just faking a bruise or two. I'm very much NOT a "believe all women" person but reading the details given and the aftermath, it seems likely that he did. I definitely think there were some embellishments on the narrative told, but I do think she either had an underlying condition, or she died of the bleeding caused by the rape.

Maybe it's the magic glasses. You put them on any average attractive looking girl and she becomes Lisa/Tina?

My grandma remarried, her first husband is my actual grandfather but they divorced when my dad was 6 and her second husband is who I grew up with and is the best grandfather I could have asked for

To all the ladies out there, are chockers considered masogynistic? I mean doesn't it kind of indicate that a women is on a leash?

They kind of are. I can't remember exactly which of her movies this is a still from, (I want to say "The Owl & The Pussycat") but in the movie, she's wearing a baby doll type dress, that has hands on the boob part of it, as the print.

Not sure what you are getting at, the parent would not be going to class, just the child…
Minimum wage in 1995: $4:25 Yearly: $8,840 Average cost year of college (w/ room and board): $8,800
In the case that there are two parents, both which are working. The sole parent making minimum wage would be able to completely pay for tuition, room, and board.
And that’s also assuming Target only paid minimum wage, the college was not on the cheaper side of average, and the student is living on campus, not commuting/received zero tuition assistance.
It could absolutely be done then, it could not be done today.
Edit: wording.

Great story fam. I know I’d be scared seeing big horses run around the corner out of the blue. Do you know what type of horses these are?
