No.
To the shock of the local elders, I took it upon myself to file for a divorce
without Scriptural Grounds™ from my JW husband. His lectures about the big A were getting old and so was he.

Did you as a woman buy into and follow the subjection crap?
by restrangled inmy grandmother didn't, my mother didn't and neither did i. so how does this continue in this advanced day and age?.
why would any woman put up with it?.

Women are in subjection to their husbands and to the Elders!!!!!
by Gill inthe february 15th watchtower 2007, is spectacularly nauseating!!!
at least i found it so.. i would welcome the opinion of all on the board to this sentiment on page 19, paragraph 8 and9:.
'although subjection can be challenging, women can welcome it as honorable, even as did jesus.

Last week I was told by my very active JW ex-husband (after me not setting foot at the last Kindumb Hall for five years) that the elders want to know if I have remarried. Apparently, they want me to deliver a written message to them so that my ex can be declared "free." I told him that I don't owe those elders ANY explanations regarding my personal business. I said to him: "You have the divorce papers. You haven't been married to anyone for the last three years. If you need the elders to tell you when you are free, then I guess you aren't really."

Nosferatu's School of Dating - Lesson 1.2 - Attraction
by Nosferatu inlesson 1.1 is here:.
http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/20/126517/1.ashx.
for those of you who are wondering when i'm going to get to the subjects of how to ask her out, or how to approach a woman, they're coming, but we need to get your mind on the right track before any of that can happen.. another poster just recently started a thread, asking what women wanted.

When a man shows up on a first date with flowers, a teddy bear, candy, and takes her out for a $100 meal, it doesn't impress her.
...and your statement is based on a documented study which included how many thousands of women?

Post your favorite saying
by Scully ini was just pondering how the wts has, for over a century, been able to convince people to do what is contrary to their best interests with fear tactics that armageddon is coming soon, and i came up with what is going to be my pet phrase for a while:.
"only religion has the power to compel people to embrace sheer stupidity in the name of faith.
" ~ scully, december 28, 2006. i googled it, and didn't see that anyone else has claimed it, so until someone else finds an attribution for it, i'm claiming it as my own.

What do women REALLY want?
by Abandoned inok, i've heard it all: sincerity, honesty, security, money, love, romance, flowers, poems, promises, and more.
but, in my arguably limited experience, i've been shot down while doing all of these (at differnt times obviously).
so, what do women really want?
-
-
YoursChelbie
Well, I know what I don't want:
A man without clear goals in life.
A man who snores. (I can't cuddle with loud noises in my ear...huge turn-OFF)
A man who doesn't bathe every day.
A man who is not loyal and faithful or is basically a player
A man who gives a religion or anything else higher priority than his family.

Otherwise Engaged...
by LittleToe injust a little breaking news:.
after several years of a great friendship with diane (previously posted as xena) things have started to really come together recently and i've succumbed to making an honest woman of her (or at least as honest as it's possible to make her.
last night (xmas day) i popped the question and she agreed to marry me (i wonder if she knows what she's let herself in for!!!)..

Best wishes to LT and Xena. I found this little tid bit. It was very true in my marriage with a JDub. I left the cult after a few years and he's still slaving away, trying to "reach out" but always getting passed up for a "promotion."
PROPENSITY TO CHANGE
A woman marries a man expecting he will change, but
he doesn't.
A man marries a woman expecting that she won't
change, and she does.YC
