  • Another article I read said that a man with preemie twins in the NICU and his family weren't allowed to see the twins because of Beyonce. I think if she wanted something that private, she has money enough to pay some nurses and doctors to have a home birth.
  • I'm Martina. I'll be 35 at the end of the month and I'm Wiccan, and I recently joined a coven, my first. I'm five foot two and currently about 200 pounds give or take and I want to be down to 150 pounds. I'd like to lose ten pounds by the end of March.
  • Yep!!! In January at least!!
  • Misstash: 22? WOOPS... Didn't look high enough. Well I was close enough!
  • Towards the end of my Mom's life we signed a DNR when we put her in Hospice. Yes I know that is different than Euthanizing, but the DNR example was brought up. My Mom first became ill when I was a baby, and died when I was 30. By the time she died, she had several strokes, several heart attacks, fibromyalgia, neuropathy,…
  • Yes, absolutely.
  • Not on welfare but as someone who is on disability (and I hate that I have to be on it, BTW) and someone who collects food stamps (because 700 dollars for the month does not buy food) I certainly am not abusing the system. Like someone else in this thread said, I absolutely, positively HATE HATE HATE living off of the…
  • As far as arguments for or against you all are light years ahead of my thought process. But if we are talking mythology... don't know if anyone has mentioned the story of Danae and the Shower of Gold yet? Danae was shut in a tower and wasn't allowed out basically. Zeus saw her and fell in love with her, but instead of…
  • Wooly Mammoths died out for a reason I think. No need to bring one back. Maybe they are doing it to make a fur coat out of mammoth fur??
  • Society has programmed us to be monogamous in my opinion. By nature I think we, as a whole, are not monogamous. But for so many years monogamy has been presented to us as the thing to be, so most of us are. But then again, I also feel the opposite way. People all around the world are monogamous, so perhaps SOME people are…
  • Well I guess we have two different interpretations of sensitive. Now I know someone who, after your comments, would have cried and ran out of the room-- and she is an adult BTW. In my eyes, she is sensitive, and I am not. Again, it is fine if you feel otherwise... but we have two different interpretations of the word. And…
  • I know not everyone feels the way I do. Its fine if they don't-- but I'd love the world better if!!!! Okay, that was a total bad joke.. I'm not "sensitive" as you say-- but really, it isn't something to make a joke about. If others say it-- fine but I REALLY wish they wouldn't.
  • I don't like people using certain words as an insult-- like the words retarded, gay, etc.. Something I REALLY cannot stand is when people say "That's so gay" as is being gay is something undesirable. I don't say something is retarded, things of that nature. And this perhaps has nothing to do with this issue, but I cannot…
  • nope, I have never considered closing my FB. I keep up with too many people through FB.
  • If anyone can find one of those things online that say something to this effect, we should so do one on here: Such and such natural disaster is occuring and only a small amount of people can be chosen to start a new colony. Out of this list of 12 people, which 6 should be chosen for the colony? Those are always fun to do.…
  • I just realized I had not put my opinions on here yet. I believe that young pre-teen girls and teenage girls should dress like KIDS!!!!! This includes underwear!!!! Dexter and I were in a store and a Mom was asking her (perhaps 9 year old) daughter if she wanted the thongs or the bikinis. Firstly I didn't know thongs were…
  • Thank you for including Yule!! My Yule tree is fake. Less mess!!! Although this year since Dexter is deployed, I've opted not to put anything up.
  • Exactly this. I am bisexual and I do not choose to be attracted to one sex over another, it doesn't work that way. You fall in love with who you fall in love with. And you are attracted to whomever you are attracted to.
  • This was my sister and her husband, we grew up in Atlanta-- the South-- but that had nothing to do with the way my sister and her husband feel. They are Christian, which has a lot to do with their beliefs, though I don't think they are any denomination. Also, my sister dresses with modesty-- long dresses, always covered…
  • I was 17 when they got married back in 1994, and they wrote out their entire wedding ceremony. In her vows she said that she would make sure she did everything to support his goals and dreams, but he did not say the same thing to her. We definitely were not raised to feel this way but in their faith this is how they feel a…
  • I never plan on having children. But I stay at home, and it isn't by choice. I'm at home on disability, and it sucks. It isn't something I would ever really choose for myself if I did have the choice. My sister is an at-home-mom and has 4 children. She and her husband believe that it is a woman's duty and calling to stay…
  • I have no idea when I found out Santa wasn't real, nor do I remember how I felt about it. Although my sister and I always had to say "Yes" every year even into our twenties and beyond when Mom and Dad asked. I am not a Christian so I don't celebrate Christmas. The Wiccan Sabbat is Yule, however. I never plan on having…
  • co-sleeping= kids sleeping in the room, probably in a co-sleeper attached to the bed. Bedsharing= kids in the bed Okay I'm not trying to be a royal pain in the butt... its just fresh in my head. As I said, on a non-MFP forum there is a debate going on, and many mothers either co-sleep or bedshare on there, and they've…
  • I've never worn a bikini, not even when I was skinny. I do wear a tankini though, but that is just because I do not like one-pieces.
  • I have social anxiety disorder (and dysthymia and borderline personality disorder, but those are unrelated to your post) I used to have HORRIBLE panic attacks in social situations. Sometimes I still do. It used to be I was unable to make a phone call. I'd pick up the phone and for several hours I'd be unable to dial a…
  • I don't see anything shocking about it.
  • Threads on forums will almost always take on a new direction, regardless of topic. I've seen it happen often and I've been around different web forums since 2003. I mean, I'm betting you don't like it because you find it offensive or inappropriate in some way?? You have every right to feel that way. But just as an example,…
  • lol. But to the OP though, as long as that was all he said, I wouldn't care. It'd be different if he were to go into detail as to what he did. But a simple, one word answer?? No big deal.
  • I dunno, most families I know of eat "dinner" around 2 PM or so and most people that have family far away that join them join the the evening before. There is a certain "feeling" of when it ends to me, and to me it ends well before !0PM-- and I'm not just talking about food here. I for one have never shopped on a Black…
  • Funny, we are having a discussion on co-sleeping and bedsharing on another (non MFP) forum. It is all women on there, and many of the women are mothers who either co-sleep or bedshare. I don't know if this is because I don't want children or not, but personally I think it is up to each individual family. I do think there…
