In response to Daves' comment: Weigh the costs! If your family are all jw's then you can expect to be totally isolated from them. If it is possible to move away and be your self you will probably feel better. So called friends that don't know how you really are will shun you in a heartbeat so they really are not your friends. If you come out you will find most people really don't care one way or the other.

I think almost all this is stupid. I am gay and knew it when I was very young. You don't choose your race color of eyes or ancestrey. So how can you choose your sexual orientation? When you know you are gay you go through absolute hell. Finally as an adult you say to hell with every one else and live your life. Come on folks people are people and all are just the same some are ugly in personality some are sweet. Religion has caused all the crap. Love conquers all Agape that is.

Survey says women are grumpier than men
by fullofdoubtnow ini just found this news item, and i have to say in my case it could be right.. http://uk.news.yahoo.com/26102006/140/women-grumpier-morning.html.
women are 'grumpier in the morning' thursday october 26, 09:50 am.
a new survey has confirmed the belief of many men - that women are the grumpier sex first thing in the morning.
-

I don't think women are grumpier than men because women are ruled by emotion and men by logic. Therefore grumpiness may be mistaken for emotional outbursts hehehehehe I hope I didn't start something here lol

Do You Really "Care" If Someone's Gay Or Not???
by minimus inso often, you see people all up in arms because it is revealed that an individual is "gay".
do you really care??
personally, i don't.

Makes no difference to me if someone is gay or straight. I do believe that Civil Unions should be recognized by all 50 states and all of the benefits and problems that go along with it. As Kinky Friedman said "I believe in marriage for gays so they can be as miserable as the rest of us." As it stands now a gay couple in a committed relationship have no rights except in Massachusettes. If one dies the survivor may receive nothing if blood family choose to get involved.

Personality of "Anointed" JWs
by Smiles indid you notice any similarities in the personalities of "anointed" jws?.
did they use their anointed status for personal advantage?.
were they the most loving person you ever met?.
-
hambeak
My mother and grand mother both claimed to be of the anointed. Both very kind and loving women. My mom would get very irritated at some when she would notice people pointing and whispering some even treating her special which irritated the p**s out of her. Her biggest fault was her pride by that I mean she was very poor and never would let the cong. help her in her last years ie: yard work or maybe fixing a fence you know anything around the house she always would tell them don't waste your time on me go out and preach. I live in Tx and she in CA. Of all the dubs I knew she was no phony and did not ever judge anyone but whatever came in the wt it was never ever questioned.
