Carrie Prejean -- Who's the Boob Now?

31. Leave this young woman alone. You're only united Christians against your cause. Even those on the margin with their beliefs can see this for what it is. Screw being Miss California. The media has made her Miss World with their coverage

32. The pictures were sent the day she got the boob job? Give me a break! For a couple of weeks after the surgery, the breasts aren't a pretty sight. They are wrapped. They are distorted, swollen and bruised and sometimes there are even drains still in. It takes a while for them to even look like brestts at all.

33. I don't think gay marriage is the same as interracial marriage. It is not. Get mad all you want...but it's the higher truth. There is "truth" and then there is "higher truth". The problem is that society has treated homosexuals and lesbians (and all those in between) in a very poor way, they've been marginalized, discriminated against, misunderstood, they've suffered in silence. The problem is also that the religious church has always stood on the side of oppression in history. They stood on the side of those doing the oppression and the intolerance. Racism, women's rights, you name it. And now....we have this issues called gay marriage....and of course, the NORMAL reaction to have is to immediately think that the church people will do what they've always done...show intolerance, a narrow minded attitude and perpetrate injustice. That's very normal. very very very normal. After all, freedom should be given to all, we all should be equal, civil rights are for everyone. Regardless of what you are...I don't have a problem with that...not whatsoever. But then again...is the "freedom" that we all enjoy really true freedom ? Is this it ??? I am not taking freedom for granted. But think for a second. Yes there are the narrow minded religious ones? Forget those for a second. Let's just look deeper or dig deeper. Nothing is as easy as it looks.
When Carrie said she is against gay marriage, I don't think it would have been the same as saying I am against interracial unions. And yes I know I am going to appear to sound narrow minded but I am not. Look at nature. The human race started out in nature, right ? Before we had all that technology, all this amazing knowledge. Look at the animals...to the exception of some insects I don't remember the name of, there isn't a single species that mates male with male or female with female.

Skin color or cultural background is not the same as sexual orientation. but it's not an excuse to hate and marginalise those who are homosexuals. Now I know we are not animals. But we forget sometimes where we come from. Our "raw" selves. Our "real" selves. This said, even if what I am saying is true, it is still a very hard issue. Because the fact is there are people who are genuinely attracted to same sex. And we can't "make them stop". We cannot control people. So...we must accpet those who are different. We must treat them as everyone else.

34. Why does no one talk about the fact that Perez Hilton was being a total a**hole for putting her on the spot like that in front of millions of people. He purposely tried to ruin her career to get his own publicity and didn't care how much damage he cost her. She spent years on her career, just to be ruined by that jerk.

35. This is ridiculous leave the girl alone

36. This stories getting so old, it's starting to become like beating a dead horse. Do we really need to punish the girl just because she stood up for what she believes in? Seriously what is society coming to.

37. What I am trying to say is...we do not live in a perfect world. So we can't pretend we know it all. Even if everyone had the same rights, even if there was equality, the world would still be very imperfect. For us to have all the right answers, we should live in a place of perfection and we should be perfect people. We are not. We have accomplished a lot as human beings... more freedom than ever, amazing advances in technology, medicine, human rights etc. Yet, none of this makes us perfect. we are still going to die one day (without trying to sound too pessimistic), and when we die, although each of us have personal beliefs as to the "afterlife", none of us have "hard facts" about what's on the other side.
People are dying in the world, most people on the world suffer hunger, diseases and poor lifestyles. Is "knowledge" really the only answer ? Knowledge is very important...and I am all for knowledge but it has its limits. There comes a time where you need to look to something different to find real meaning fr your life. If knowledge solved everything we wouldn't be having all those problems today. The problem lies inside of us. deep inside. At the end of the day, who are we and why are we alive ? Are we just here to make money, get a house, build a family and then just go ? When you see all those problems in the world, it tells you there is something else besides all this material world we see. And at the end of the day, regradless of what society dictates, we don't have deep inner fulfillment no matter how much money, success, babies we have or even how many good deeds we do. Life is about deep inner fulfillment. But the average person is too busy paying bills, struggling, hurt, numb etc to seek the deeper things. So...we just apply what I call 'bandaid' to a deep wound that needs deep cleansing, and not just a bandaid. Thats what we do. We dont look at the deep inner issues. we just look at the surface. Blacks were enslaved, tortured, were not allowed in the same places as whites, were not allowed to vote, were not considered as human beings with dignity. Homosexuals are certainly not suffering in this way. But the suffering is different....more of an inner suffering. I won't even expect readers at TMZ to understand what I am saying here. I just expect shallow remarks. And thats the problem...people do not look for meaning outside of their immediate lives. and if they find meaning it's just not the deep meaning, its just an "okay that will do" meaning.

what I am trying to say is...life is imperfect. Be real with what you REALLY FEEL inside.

38. Gay marriage is NOT the same as interracial marriage and was ruled accordingly. Interracial marriage was permitted because marriage relates to children and perpetuation of the species. No gay couple has without outside intervention EVER been able to perpetuate the species. I fully support civil unions for all, but marriage for religious unions, but let's keep the topic truthful.

Oddly enough, Obama holds the SAME VIEW as Prejean but not a word is said about his bigotry. Ah, I love the smell of hypocrisy in the morning.

39. @No way!

The pictures WERE NOT taken on the day she got her boob job. The article CLEARLY SAYS the email was dated on or after the day she got her boob job.

Reading Comprehension 101.

40. I agree gays should be able to marry. But I feel the attack TMZ has mounted on Prejean is one sided. The pageant gave Miss Rhode Island permission to pose topless. Making the Prejean photos MOOT! Harvey your witch hunt does not help the cause.

41. Guess what? I do not support gay marriage either....Its wrong...Period...

42. Regardless of her pics, her beliefs, and her lies, she simply should concede to the fact that her actions are not befitting someone who should be representing Miss California. In fact, she shouldn't be considered a role model at all. If she truly believed what she says she believes, she would have relinquished the crown of her own accord.

In reality, all she sees is spotlight, money, fame and attention and is willing to do and say anything to get it. Give the crown to the runner up who actually lives the part. Not just pretends.

43. I have seen the pictures and yes she has implants in the picture. I use to work at a medical supply office that sold the implants and it is rare that you can't see the form of the implant. Not very many drs know how to put them in right which is very important whether they look more natural. You can see the implants especially in a side view. She is a hypocrite.
I really don't like the way pageants have gotten and it is amazing Miss CA organization paid for the implants...that is fake and is hypocritical in itself.

44. She's lied twice about these photos is anyone really surprised that she's lied a third time? .. did anyone really buy that nonsense that she was only 17? I sure didn't. She should just shut up and go away now. She dug this hole herself with all her moral bragging and prideful talk about her values.. too bad now.

45. first of all, if anyone is comment on my previous comment, perhaps you need to actually read what I said. After reading the comments on this subject, I still stand by what I originally said. I am a hetrosexual by the end make up of my genetics and if I were to have been born gay, it would be because my genetics for attraction would have ended up in a different part of the same genetic spectrum. As for marriage being strictly for procreation, that is an very antiquated and ridiculous statement. I know many people who were married without having any intentions of ever perpetuating the species. The last wedding I went to was between people in their late 30s and neither one of them has any desire whatsoever to raise children and that is even part of the reason they are together. Growing up hetro, I never gave much thought on what it would be like not to be able to marry the person of my choice, but gay people don't have this same luxury. As for religious reasons to not allow gay marriages, what is it that makes you think that everyone has your same religious preferences? And they certainly are not going to alter the principles of any religion unless that religion was already moving in that direction. You certainly cannot tell someone of different beliefs systems that they absolutely MUST follow your tenets, even if indirectly. Religion is also not the sole reason for marriage in today's society either. I certainly did not get married for religious reasons, but for the bond I share with my wife. If you are coming at this issue from a religious standpoint, then you are trampling all over the basis of this society; the separation of church and state. I would like to think that people need not give their reasons or follow some archaic traditions if they do not feel the need to if they decide to marry. This is a civil and human rights issue and and to deny basic rights to others due strictly to their sexual preferences is bigoted, plain and simple.
