Ximena is such a hustler.

I give her credit for telling him. She could have just played "we're trying" forever, and claimed to have not known. 

[Baltimore Betty]

Mike, think about this, you are unemployed, you live with your father and grandfather, you think you will be bringing Excema and her two kids to the US and you are all going to live in that house, can you really afford another kid, you don't have room in the house or in your budget.

The more I look at Mike, the more accustomed to his weird squashy face I get. He's really not that bad looking. He has kind eyes. Maybe a different style of glasses? 

He does have kind eyes

Mike looks better without those glasses.

I can see it happening if she was in her mid-30s.

Good thing we didn’t have to bring the muscle and beat him up.

We could just throw Memphis on him!

Are we thinking Ximena isn't 25??

And... they're off!!  Gino really impressed old whatsherface's thinking about his wardrobe!!  She's gonna have to backpedal like crazy when her friend shows up!

I think Mike is employed.

I think there's something like "traditional values". And of course "my kids are my world" 

See, and I don't like the my kids are my world line.  Sure, they are a big part of my life  but even when they were in school I had work, friends, a social life, hobbies, etc.

Maybe her tattoo artist did the surgery.

But sterilization is also considered mutilation, I think? Maybe even for medical reasons.

Confusing.

 

Catholic teaching permits medical treatment that causes sterility as an unintended side effect.

Depending on the laws, birth control may not be legal for unmarried women, like it was in the US for many years and may again.

Maybe she's lying because she just doesn't want to be obligated to have a third child by a man she doesn't love?  Or like...she's still obsessed with her second kid's jailbird dad and wants to somehow stay "true" to him by not starting another family?  That's my theory, anyway.

[Floatingbison]

I'm soo weirded out by Gino's hat.  We live in wonderful times, if men lose their hair, the chromedome look is not only acceptable, it's a bold statement.  I try full on shaved head chromedome now and then, but it's a lot of maintenance.

 

UPDATE:  sorry my comment is out of time, I'm multitasking tonight.

So are tubal ligations. No catholic hospital that I know of does them.

Well, still his living situation is no bueno to bring in more people in to that house.  Does Excema know that is how she will be living, taking care of two strange men.

Jasmine gets her weave fixed while they are all having lunch together.

OMG, this “thyroid eyes” commercial is terrifying!

Jasmine has her talons buried in Gino's thigh.

Ohhh…I think your right.  She is saving her uterus for the jailbird boyfriend!

On another thread it was rumored that

He uses the hat to cover surgical scars.

Queer Eye guys, are you watching this? Gino needs your help!

[Bees52]

Gino dresses for comfort not style, evidently.

[Frozendiva]

Jasmine, get used to the ugly shoes.

Geeze, I can relate to poor Gino here. I dress for comfort, I would actually hate dating.

Gynecological care in Columbia is very different than North America. Catholicism is a huge influence, making obtaining birth control as an unmarried woman complicated, and I doubt there is much counseling or consideration of emotional factors when performing tubal ligation.

Oh, I was just thinking the same thing! Maybe he had a pimple under there, or a concussion?

Jasmine, you sound like a hyena.

Geno & Jasmine really need the Get Smart Dome of Silence.  Their laughs and her voice are unbearable.

Yes! 

I do feel a bit for jasmine because it irks me when a guy dresses weird or lazy.

My friends and I used to joke about always checking out a guy's shoes.

And there are so many cool options for guys today.

[Hotel Snarker]

Oh my goodness, what a stream of backhanded compliments.

She had two kids without being married and her ffirst baby was a one night stand, so......

Hardly original, I freely confess I stole it. My dad was a great one for wordplay and puns, I probably got it from him.

My husband shaves his head and it looks great. A hell of a lot better than his greying, balding head.

Intercurse.

I HATE when I’m sitting near noisy, obnoxious assholes in a restaurant.

i would love it for 1 season we get someone who spoke the language but pretended he or she didnt just so they can listen in to the non English conversations.

Jasmine is talking some sense
