Dad taught practical lessons, like the value of hard work and how to check your oil, but he was also experienced in art of raising his pinky finger while sipping imaginary tea. He exemplified humor, stability, and strength, and that's why we'll always be a Daddy's girl. We asked Shine readers to explain the love for their fathers. Here are 38 reasons why we will forever be "Daddy's little girl." Happy Father's Day! -- Ali Swank

Looking at vintage Father's Day cards is a trip. It's like taking a journey to another time, a time when spanking was socially acceptable, women stayed home and cleaned the house, and every dad was addicted to nicotine (smoking cigars, cigarettes and the occasional pipe). While I highly doubt Hallmark would promote any of these sexist ideas today, these old cards showcase the highly different and highly misogynistic way advertisers used to think. Check out this odd assortment of vintage Father's Day cards and let me know what you think! -By Sunny Chanel

Veer / The BumpI believe I am an independent and strong woman but I feel that during pregnancy women should get a"free pass." While I don't think this gives preggo's carte blanche to act entitled and irritable toward everyone around them, I do think giving them a helping hand is not too much to ask. Let me explain why. In the last few weeks, I've been completely dumbfounded by the lack of humanity and respect towards pregnant women today in our society.

My first experience with this attitude happened on a flight from Chicago to Houston for work. I was only traveling for a few days and had a carry-on bag. I figured a carry-on would be easy enough to tote around. Wrong. I had quite a hard time lifting my carry-on in the overhead bin. So much in fact, that I caught the eye of several businessmen who just stared at me as if I were some circus spectacle. Embarrassed and frustrated, I struggled to lift the carry-on and almost hit one of the men in the head. Even

13-year-old Neha RamuNeha Ramu's mom tells The Daily Mail that her teen likes TV, swimming, and playing with her friends.

Sounds like any other 13-year-old, right?

Well, Neha also happens to have scored a 162 on the Mensa IQ test for people under 18. That's the highest score possible in that age category and makes her one of the smartest people in the UK.

Any score of above 140 is considered to be genius. In fact, while Stephen Hawking refuses to reveal his IQ, it's estimated at 160.

So how did Neha get so smart? She lived in Bangalore, India until she was seven and she thinks the Indian education system gave her a head start.

Her mom and dad had no clue Neha was so smart until she scored the top marks possible in her UK entrance exams.

'When I found out I got such a high score it was so amazing and unexpected…Stephen Hawking, Albert Einstein, they've achieved so much. It's not right to compare me to them just because of my

We take off our shoes in order to get cleared to fly. We freak out if we see a deserted box or package on the street. And we give sideways glances to adults that look or act suspicious. But as it turns out, it's not terrorists we should be fearing: it's toddlers.

The website Opposing Views put together a fascinating list of recent fatalities at the hands of American tots, saying, "you might be shocked to know that preschoolers with guns have taken more lives so far this year than the single U.S. terrorist attack, which claimed four lives in Boston."

We all know that there is a verbal and legal battle over guns happening in the United States. The amount of senseless deaths that occurred from fatal gunshots is staggering, but it's not just psychos with AK-47s or career criminals that end lives. Children are curious and if they are able to get their hands on a gun, too many times they will accidentally set it off.

Photo courtesy of AP/International Business TimesThe latest portrait of Kate Middleton is not exactly Palace-approved.

Artist Kaya Mar has created a Renaissance-inspired oil painting of the Duchess breastfeeding her unborn child. Depicted as the Madonna with a halo around her head and holed socks, Kate appears as a saint-like figure, nursing a baby in a crown as a Corgi (the Queen’s favorite breed) sits beside her.

Mar, who began working on the portrait a month ago, explains his motivation to Yahoo Shine. “It’s satire,” he says. “I don’t have anything against Kate Middleton, but I’m using her as a metaphor for how our society elevates people into icons. Before she met William, she was a commoner. Now, people worship her.”

He explains that the socks with holes signify her "commoner" background, while the halo reflects who she has become through her marriage to Prince William. Meanwhile, he purposefully emulated the poses found in the iconic Madonna and child Renaissance
