  1. jw
  2. friends

  i'm looking for information & experiences that intersexed people may have had in the congregations of jws.. if u are not sure what an intersexed person is u could check out this site... http://hermaphrodite.arriba.net/ .

  or if u pefer your text to be paper based rather than pixel, try the book ' hermaphrodites & the medical invention of sex', by alice domerut dreger (1998)... i seem to remember an australian transexual who had been male & a jw and who finished up in the uk.... wrote a book if i remember correctly!

  possibly his/her first name was also ken.. would appreciate any information & experiences-- whether positive or negative

  i was hanging around my mom's house yesterday, and i just happened to leaf through the january 8th afake!

  magazine, about the wtc disaster.. no doubt that perhaps many of the sept. 11 experiences are real, but what i mostly read were these shameless advertisements for the watchtower complex in downtown brooklyn!!

  i was appalled!!

  Battered Lambs Webpage (new)

  by silentlambs in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  after reviewing the society's vapid interest in helping battered women and seeing the many sad stories posted as a result of the article, i have a new addition to the silentlambs website.. a new webpage for battered lambs.. this will be accessed off the victims page with a clickable link.

  there you will be able to read the stories of those who have suffered physical abuse at the hands of wt policy.

  all stories will be posted anonymously of course and there will also be a second poems and thoughts page dedicated to victims of physical abuse.

  Rejoicing in the Death of the Innocents

  by ApostasyDuJour in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i have been spending time in live jw chat rooms since the events of 9-11. listening to the jws chat amongst themselves and seeing how they are reacting to this atrocity, i am both horrified and sickened.

  as stated on another board i frequent:.

  "for any religion to use this horrific act of terror as a means to proselytize is almost as reprehensible as the act of terrorism itself!".

  Why are there more sisters than brothers?

  by expatbrit in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it is generally acknowledged, and confirmed by experience, that there is a significant gender imbalance in the organisation.. there are considerably more sisters than there are brothers.

  that's great for the brothers, because a lot of the poor jw lasses get so desperate that even the most dorky of brothers can take his pick.. but why is there this imbalance?.

  it's true that birth rates show slightly more females being born than males (mother nature's way of safeguarding the future?

  We'll have a gay ol' time

  by riz in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i recall having a conversation with a friend about homosexuality not too long ago.

  he put a new spin on the subject that i had never thought of before.

  he said his opinion was that the bible condemns homosexuality for the simple fact that the act of sex between same-sex partners does not produce children.

  Do You Think That You Might Turn Back To Jehovah?

  by Englishman in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i`ve never yet been snubbed by a jw.

  the reason is that i refuse point blank to speak to them unless they speak to me first.

  so, if i`m visiting my jw mum and jw visitors arrive which they often do i just smile, raise one eyebrow slightly, and look `em straight in the eye!.
