It’s human to desire children, especially when they are conceived out of your own DNA and come out bearing a pretty good resemblance to those who created the little tyke. When mother nature doesn’t cooperate, though, and the parts fail to produce offspring, should that be the end of the genetic road to conception? Is [...]

Legend Elizabeth Taylor was out and about with her 5-year boyfriend, Jason Winters, to celebrate Macy’s Passport program, which “helps raise awareness and funds for the HIV/AIDS community.” She has to ride in a wheelchair now, but dig that energy and persistence in pursuing her passions. Go Liz!

Experience they say forms the nature of our identity. The opportunity to be yourself is the holy grail. So with all due respect, check out this 2-foot tall pregnant woman.
