    Yes, says professor Andrew Oswald of the University of Warwick, UK. After studying more than 9,000 people over eight years, Oswald concluded that people who come into money are happier. The happiest among them, he further says, seem to be "highly educated, well-paid women who have jobs."

    Lady "C" has always hated the way women were treated in wt, she never agreed that a woman should quit her job or career and pioneer , living off her husband who could leave her 5 yrs later with no money, job or skills. this study found that "highly educated, well-paid women who have jobs." are the happiest folks-

    when you consider that generally speaking in wt it is the females who suffer the most and are more likely to be on some type of mental depression drug, it becomes easy to understand why

    the avg sister despite her personal accomplishments, they mean NOTHING in wt world unless she is a pioneer, -

    anything that resembles a career she is going to get dogged, and Lord Have Mercy she decides to express her views on matters that don't jive with wt or those of a Male,

    she is a Jezubel all the way-

    so to all the ladies here and many i have had the opportunity to speak with via email and phone all i have to say is :

    U GO GIRL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    JT,

    Congrads to Lady C. She had an arm and a leg up on most of the jw women I knew. Very few if any, could make that attitude stick.

    You think maybe they have backed off that 60's-80's mind set? With College an option now, could things be actualy getting better for women in the borg? Sincere question, I really have no way of knowing.

    Of course the whole spritual/congregational place of women remains the same since Apostle Paul's day, but I wonder how things are now with employment and such?

    JT,

    YOU ROCK!

    : Lady "C" has always hated the way women were treated in wt, she never agreed that a woman should quit her job or career and pioneer , living off her husband who could leave her 5 yrs later with no money, job or skills. this study found that "highly educated, well-paid women who have jobs." are the happiest folks-

    Point of order here: these folks are likely "demonized." Anyone who is happy AND successful is probably demonized. Happy and successful = demonized. Poor, miserable and unsuccessful (but selling WT books every chance you get) = "Jehovah's blessing." That's the way it works.

    Lady "C" would have had an entirely different life had she not bought that night stand from that garage sale you both visited. Now she's off to being happy and self-fulfilled and prosperous. See the evil that those pesky demons can work once you quit selling WT books? You both should go back to selling WT books. And pray a lot. Otherwise, you face the sad life of being happy and prosperous and no one with any sense would want a life like that.

    While you may have made some good observations, you should remember those "pesky demons." They can mess you up, JT. They can make you think that being happy is what life is about. That's why they are demons. They want you to be happy. They cannot be trusted under any circumstances.

    JT,

    Please remember that Satan keeps transforming himself into an angel of light. He knows how to make the good look bad, and the bad look good. OOOps, I think I just had a WT regurgitation!

    Nice post.

    I doubt it, the entire structure of the org is built around titles and positions and since women can't have any positions and only the title of Pioneer, then there will be no change

    as for school the wt has not really changed it views that much- on paper they say it's ok one week then the next they change their mind

    last year i think they had a 3 week service meeting part on going to college and it was dog dog dog

    in my moms old hall there was this little black sister who was about to graduate from HS and was about to enter college as a "Foot doctor" i can't spell the proper name sorry, anyway her family was assigned the part and by the end of 3 weeks she had changed her mind about college and her folks and the friends were so proud of her,

    my mom was so pissed and as of now the little sister is so broken in spirit- from last reports she rarely even comments now,

    she had to put her dream on hold like many of us waiting for PIE IN THE SKY

    AS MUCH AS i wish this was not true -- i have to agree with the way you summed up the basic mindset of those who are jw

    HOW SAD

    Now, let's be reasonable. What use would there be for a podiatrist in the New System? After all, everyone.... Wait a minute.....don't all those illustrations in the Watchtower show women walking around in Paradise with those shoes with low heels? Not flats or sneakers or boots, but little dress pumps. Hmmm.....wearing shoes like that when you're tramping around trying to avoid rotting corpses and skipping through fields with holes and rocks is just asking for foot trouble!

    Perhaps she should take this into consideration and re-consider her decision about college.

    i must admit you got a good point there- in the new system there will be no need- I need to call mom and tell her to let that little sister know, she should use her time wisely in the ministry

    o my goodness didn't you just love it when the CO or someone on the convention would relate an exp just like that of how they gave up X Y Z for the sake of the KINGDOM

    YOU GOT TO LOVE IT
