  Boys pre-teen sexuality / erections.? Why ? If only for procreation ?

  by smiddy3 in

  1. social
  2. family

  this has been a bug bear my whole life i think and not really sure how to address it as nobody else ever seems to do so.. and it relates to the question if god really created humans .

  he did a shithouse job in this regard.. i can`t speak for females this is entirely a male thing.

  from my perspective.. male adolescents at a very ,very young age , babies , get erections periodically and it has nothing to do with sexual fantasies ,because they don`t even have an awareness of sex between a male and a female at this time.. and it is second inbuilt nature to masturbate to relieve, get rid of the erection .

  Apparently boys have erections before birth. I think I read that on Wikipenis. Just kidding. It was regular google.

  what does being a "spiritual person" mean to you?

  the religion would have had us to believe that our place in the organization is definitive of that.

  or how often we pray.

  As a JW Did You Prefer a “Stricter” Congregation or a More Liberal One?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  in my experience, there were three types of witnesses.

  some were barely witnesses while others were extremely conservative types who followed the letter of the law.

  and then you had those in the middle who just went with the flow.. i knew many witnesses who “felt safe” being in a stricter environment.they were actually proud that they belonged to such and such congregation because it was filled with strict bethelites..

  I only know that I disliked hypocrisy. Strict or permissive didn't matter to me as long as they were consistent.

  what unique to jws phrases do you remember?

  something fun for those of us taught to speak an entirely unique and pure language.

  there have been posts in the past in this forum but perhaps some have new ones after having kept up with jehovah's chariot as the light gets brighter.

  "How is John"?

  "Good news, he was reactivated."

  "I didn't know he went inactive".

  Confession Time - Music You're Embarrassed to Admit Listening To

  by Simon in

  2. friends

  admit it, we all have things that we reel off when people ask what our favourite music is, just the same as if people ask what our favourite movies are.

  we're meant to say "citizen kane" and "casablanca" and not "battleship" or "pacific rim" but we know what we're going to watch if they are ever on tv at the same time (and which ones we've never actually seen).. so how about some confession time?

  what do you listen to when no one else is in the house?.

  Do You Think Trump Should Be Impeached?

  some democrats are zealously pushing the impeachment route to get rid of trump.

  even if you don’t like him, do you support impeachment proceedings?.

  I don't think Pelosi is a stupid as people think. I believe she knows that all the factual evidence of Trumps financial misdeeds will come out during proceedings in the election year and thus be present in the minds of the electorate. Its a matter of timing, not simply timidity towards impeachment. For this reason and the fact that its their fricken job to defend the country against all enemies, foreign and domestic that I support impeachment of Cheeto.

  Do You Think People Have Forgotten About 9/11?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  after all these years, it seems to me that people do not properly take note of what happened on this date in 2001. for some, it’s like nothing major happened.

  for me it is a day of reflection..

  Not sure about that, but they have forgotten about the reality of a 16 year old war in Afshitistan.

  Do You Think People Should Be Scorned For Wearing A Red MAGA Hat?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  do you support free choice to wear a political hat or article of clothing?

  if someone wants to put a bumper sticker on their car in support of a political candidate or party, should they be able to do it without fear of being maligned or abused?

  People should be clear on all that a symbol implies and not show false outrage when they piss off everyone around them. Be willing to stand for your beliefs however unpopular. This isn't meant as permission for people to be violent, its just that when you flip people off they will likely react in an unfriendly manner.
