Kate Mansi is a grown woman not someone in their early-to-mid teens, and there are plenty of other women who are older than her and have the same body type. I don't see how or why it's weird/creepy for someone like her to be in a relationship with someone of EJ/JS' size. :shrug:
I just posted something similar to this on Twitter. :blulaugh: I'm one of those very petite women. The insinuation that the only reason that a tall man would want someone w/ a petite build is that he's interested in teenagers is just disturbing and wrong.
I am also very petite. And my husband is only interested in petite women. His first wife was even smaller than I. To say that men like small women because they are perverted is simply wrong especially considering that most of the women commenting probably go to great lengths to make their pubes appear to be like a 9 yr. old.

Whoa, okay this has taken an unexpected turn. :blink:

So, uh, yeah. How 'bout those Hope and Aiden scenes? I kinda like it when they have potential couples dislike each other when they first meet. It's a cliche, but it works for the most part.

I don't understand why others are so grossed out about Mansi/Scott. I am about Scotts size although not in shape like he is and I have been with guys who are much smaller than I am and don't see them as little boys or hope others don't lol. Anyway onto the show....

Can the show please use Julie more often. SSH is just so good. Kate vs Julie vs even Maggie could be fun to watch. I can't wait to watch her and Hope to team up to find out what's going on with Nick.

Looking forward to tomorrow's eppy.

Attractive men in suit count today: 4 :wub2:

Loved Hope and Aiden. Her calling him a jerk? Can't wait to see the way this progresses. Love/hate relationship maybe?

Hope and Julie, be still my heart! Nice to see them remember that even though Julie is Hope's stepmom, she is also her half-sister.

Nicole and Eric are definitely growing on me. I didn't see the start of their relationship, but the long lingering glances and the love that cannot be acted on, great writing and acting. Reminds me of the Days of the supercouple.

Loved the wardrobe today for Will and Sonny, very sharp looking today. Guy has won me over as Will. Just fits in very naturally.

And saved my fav for last, EJ and Abby. LOVED it! My thoughts on him talking to the baby, not sure if that was a storyline decision or James talking to the baby to keep her distracted. I've talked to baby's while having a conversation w/ their parent. Didn't bother me one way or the other. And loved the fact that he said that he slept with Abby because he couldn't stop himself. EJ telling the truth for once. :D


I have the same interpretation of the EJ/Abby scene.I believe he was talking to Abby in a low tone of voice so only Abby could possibly hear what he was saying and he did not look at her for the same reason he gave at the cabin Monday because he does not want to see how he has hurt her and because of the feelings he gets when he does look at her which is what got them into the current situation.Every time he is near her,he has to touch her.He shoulder rubbed when he helped her with her coat as they were leaving the cabin.He shoulder rubbed at the mansion just before Sami arrived.took her hand at the cabin when he was telling her that her feelings were infatuation.
He took her hand today or yesterday at the mansion.He knows anyone could enter the church at any time and did not want to be seen touching Abby because he could not explain why he did so.So not creepy to me.I do love baby Ari though.She reacts as if she knows exactly what is going on.I loved the way she took turns looking at EJ and Abby.Cannot wait until tomorrow.

Fan of EJ+ABBY!

So, I rewatched everything. I take back that I thought it was a bit weird with baby and Ej when speaking to Abigail. I realised the reason for that was because I was hitting pause all the time. I had difficulty handling the EJ+ABBY fire that was on screen. Watching it again - without pausing - it wasn't that bad,.. actually it was very cute and went past very quickly. Loved it! I did actually like seeing them with this child. Hopefully the future is bright!

Brady as dunk is actually fun to watch. I do like Theresa meddling,.. LOL

Eric and Nicole,.. I like them a lot. Nicole is beautiful as usual.

EJ and Gabi was hilarious, .. lol at the hug and him rolling his eyes. I have Gabi for a while now and I like that she is panicking.

EJ and Abby is so interesting to watch. I wouldn't be surprise if EJ did develop feelings for her, more than respect and admire, if he haven't already. I just love the tone between them. Yes Abby is questioning Ej and she will probably. I mean, she can sense that something is wrong. If I was here I would wonder and I would demand answers.

PS! Got to love Julie... =)

Quoting limited to 4 levels deep
Yeah, there are plenty of good in-show reasons to find Ejabby unsettling but the whole "she's too short and thin for him" excuse is just kinda out there. :ermm:

What's she supposed to do? Wear platforms, stop working out, and gain a ton of weight?
It's a personal thing...because of Kate's looks & the way her character is written, I relate to the character of Abby like a daughter & my daughters are only 13, so I'm stuck with that visual because of the similarities. Lindsay Hartley is probably even more petite than Kate and I thought when she played Arianna that she & EJ were hot together. But she didn't look or act anything like my teenage daughters, like Abby does.
I think the criticism on Abby acting like teen and that why she wrong for ej while Sami ej currently fiancee acting like child and almost short as Abby and yet not problem with her
The difference is that AS couldn't pass for a teenager. I see it's become the thing to dismiss everyone's complaints by bringing up Sami (because obviously, what else could complaints about Abby be about? After all, everybody was just thrilled with Abby's behavior before ejabby started, right? :rolleyes: ) but the trifecta of Abby looking very young, acting younger and being so tiny seems off when compared to JS who looks so much older. I've mentioned before that this kind of thing made me stop supporting a couple that I previously liked.

I like KA/DC together so far. I think the two of them definitely play well off each other. Neither out acted the other & both held their own. You can feel the tension between Hope & Aiden, and I imagine it's gonna get worse when they return for the next meeting Father Matt's setting up. Eventually, I'm seeing one of them end up in some sort of trouble & the other help them out of it, or Aiden finding Hope all broken after finding out Bo's dead. (in other words, something will happen that will get them to see a different side of each other.)

It's amazing how much I'm enjoying Abby since they put her in scenes with EJ. The character use to be blah to me. The chemistry between these two is so good.
I totally agree. I think KM has done a really good job with this story so far.

Probably because she not Sami
I don't see the issue either. And as far as age goes, aren't they something like 9 years apart in real life? She's playing a 22 year old onscreen. Adult and legal. He is in his early 30s and is also that on the show, no? I mean, I know he is technically, like 16 or 17, right? lol So, it's not inappropriate or gross imo that they have a sexual relationship onscreen. :shrug:
They also previously paired her with Chad twice and Casey and James are exactly the same height.I never liked Abby with Chad but that was because of their character history on the show rather than aesthetics.I saw a lot of posts supporting Chad/Abby in the past and currently and against the couple but I don't recall any mention of Abby (Kate) being too short for Chad(Casey). If she is not too short for Chad I don't see how she is too short for EJ.I also think having Abby get her degree,get her first job,and Jennifer talking about how proud she was of Abby as a young adult was paving the way for Abby to have an actual relationship with EJ.

oooooh, GREAT scene with Brady screaming how much he hates Eric.

This storyline is doing wonders for EM.
OK why is Brady saying he hates Eric?
Because he's a moron.

Julie just referred to Hope as her sister! "My sister and I are going to get to the bottom of this."
That just felt awkward to me a bit and I couldn't help but seen MILLIONS of people's face twist up in confusion as they thought, "HUH!? I thought she was her stepmother. . .whaaaaaa?"

9 yr olds have pubes? :shrug:
Not sure where this came from, but it's not uncommon these days. The animals we eat and get milk from in the US are pumped with hormones so they get bigger and make more money.

rotflmao. Aiden's pretty much accusing Hope of being a bad mother
That's how I interpreted it too because I kept wanting her to smack him in the face - what a weiner!
