Interesting article. Glad to see it out there.

I mean no offense to anyone by this, but when I posted here regularly along time ago, this was a common complaint.

You're right, of course. It's insensitive and rude and you'd have to be a total idiot not to recognize it.

I seriously believe that they're ignorant to how cruel it could be to someone. What if she really liked him? Ouch.

I was told by a missionary who I was friends with that he'd never consider me marrying material. His companion hinted the same. When he said that, I pressed him for the reason. Eventually he let it out that because I was married before (no longer a virgin) he could never, ew, ick, disgusting chewed piece of gum. So, yeah. fuck you, too.

Makes total sense. Put a hunk of it at the bottom of the bowl, dump the chili on top of it. BAM.

Can you imagine what it's like for these women (probably men, too). All their young lives they hear how sex is next to murder in the eyes of God and that masturbation is wrong, wrong, wrong. And then they find themselves married and their confounded bodies betray them and actually like it. The mindf*ck. The morg infantilizes its members especially when it comes to sexual development. I feel so ba

and if you're inclined to read memoirs, what topics would you like to read about? What areas of leaving would interest you? I'm beginning to see this idea I have of putting my journey out into long, written form is overwhelming so I work on it in stages. I have a rough outline based upon my writings, but I'd like to see what the audience thinks, hoping it will spark some more ideas. My journ

Maybe because it's Sunday and napping is encouraged. I mean, that's what I napped after church.

Every other day. My hair is thick and coarse. If I washed it every day, it would dry out and I'd never calm that frizz.

Oh yeah, I can relate. Except mine was mostly from childhood neglect. I converted when I was 15/16, and to be honest, Mormonism saved me. For a while. Then it dragged me under. lol

I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's not because she's a TBM, although it may have some small thing to do with it. But since I don't know her or the full situation, take it with a grain of salt. Anyway... For many, many years I thought I was a horrible person because I didn't have the same relationship with my mother as I saw others brag about: my mother is my best friend, she's

Contrary to my post about witches, I haven't. I've gone to the local UU a few times, but I'm only doing that because I'm new to the area and looking for a sense of community. I have no interest in subscribing to any dogma. That said, I've been reading and researching many different philosophies because I don't want the grey cells to turn black. I've been exploring aspects of Buddhism, witchcra

You do realize that I, and others, have the freedom not to care what others think of us. You do you, dude. Let me get through my life the way I want. Just because I'm fascinated with something doesn't mean I'm duped. My eyes are wide open. But thanks for playing.

If you're married to a non-mo, I do believe you need to get permission from the man unit to go through the temple. Just typing that makes me feel squiffy.
