Bikini all the way. Usually black, usually cotton, tho my all time favorite is this fabric called peach skin...ohhh mama! Silky and soft at the same time, not as slippery as satin. LOVE that stuff!

what is your scent????
by sunshineToo ini know there has been a anti-perfume thread.
but does anyone use light or moderate amount of perfume or aftershave?
if you do, what is your scent?

joannadandy
I usually use body lotion as a scent maker, not too keen on the heavy perfume. At the moment it happens to be rose scented, but not too long ago it was waterlilly from bath and body works.
Victorias Secret makes some great stuff too, love the Freesia...mmmm

ladies/gentlemen..Give me your take on this
by Monster inladies i know i shouldn't really hit on this because i have no real understanding of what you go through when you are raped.
i just want to try and understand some of what is going on.
let me ask this q. do you believe that the elders do not want to report the rapes or they are told they cannot report the rapes from the gb?

I was raped, but not by a JW boy, tho I was 16 and an active Jdub at the time. Going to the elders never even crossed my mind, I guess because of who did it. I was in too much of a state of shock to believe what had happened to me. I didn't know who to tell. I felt like I couldn't tell my parents because it happened at a party I wasn't supposed to be at. I didn't want to tell my friends because they knew the guy, and I didn't even consider going to the police because I figured it would be his word against mine and I would rather not deal with the fact that most likely he would walk, meanwhile everyone would know what had happened to me. I did tell the guy I was dating at the time. I guess I wanted to tell someone and felt he would be the most understanding. He told me it was my fault. That silenced me for good. I no longer even thought about who to tell. I wouldn't tell anyone.
To this day, I have only told two guys I have dated, and even then it was because they directly asked me if I had ever been raped. Otherwise I probably never would have told anyone. My family still doesn't know. And none of my close friends know either. I did write a story once (posted it here too, by the by) and let a girl I went to college with read it. She wanted to publish it as part of a survivors of sexual assault collection, but in the end I decided not to submit it. I guess writing was my way of acknowledging it, and dealing with it. It doesn't bother me to talk about it, I just prefer to not share that information about my life with people I know personally, I feel like they pity me, or feel they should deal with me differently. And I don't like that. I also feel it really isn't their business to know. I'm not even sure why I opened up here today, tho the story is posted on this board, it is pretty vauge. This is perhaps the most specific I have been with such a wide audience. Guess it was time to share...

zanexical connundrum
by zanex ini met a lady...as i have mentioned here before i am going thru a divorce and it hasnt been the nicest thing in the world...i met someone who has been very nice to me and patient with me and doesnt expect anythin out of me other than for me to be myself..she is a non-jw..we have been kind of just seein each other randomly.
i like her...i am a bit nervous about gettin into any type of relatinship just now and she understands that and accepts that.
i feel sooo scarred by what happened to me in that horridly destructive marriage that i dont know if i am ever going to be able to completely trust women in general but this one has been proving herself to be nothing but trustworthy and honest.

I dont know if I am EVER going to be able to completely trust women in general but this one has been proving herself to be nothing BUT trustworthy and honest. I dunno...I aint sure what to think..
I implied from your post that you are still going through the divorce process, am I right? In which case, it's a little to early to say you will might not EVER trust again. Give it time. And give her time. There is no need to rush into anything, nor feel anything for anyone on a prescribed schedule. If only emotions were so easy as "well we have three dates on our belt, I should be feeling like I can call her anytime or I want...oh after three weeks we are going to have the exclusivity talk, and if we don't that must mean she's not into me" Doesn't work that way.
Take your time, ride things out. There is no place to go, and no place to be, so wait for the ride of life to take you where you need to be. As for not being "sure what to think" Do you have to think anything? Sounds like she is cool with putting things on the long slow road and doesn't expect anything from you in the way of commitment. She seems a very understanding person as far as that goes. Stop over thinging! All will work itself out.

Is Mutual Respect Possible?
by Sociologist inone of the most striking things about this and similar message boards concerning jehovah's witnesses is the strength of feeling jw-related discussions evoke.
as i dabble in sociology, i was wondering what you all thought about the following questions.
my objective is not to criticize persons belonging to other group but rather to attempt to grasp the dynamics of the conflicts at work here.. the questions:.

objective comments about the Watchtower organization are hard to come by. Most active JW's are loathe to admit to any defects in the organization; most of you who commented are unwilling to recognize anything positive about it. Both sides are hopelessly biased. It is not just the JW organization that doesn't like too many questions being asked; quite a few ex-witnesses apparently feel the same way, judging by some of the replies. It is a mentality that strikes out and attacks those who even hint at disagreeing, calling them insincere, ignorant or evil.
Sociologist-thank you for your insightful comments. These were long standing feelings have always felt about this board and certain posters. But not all are fanatical. Tho I found some peoples replies to your honest and insightful questions a little sad because they seemed to play right into the fanaticsm you had pointed out.
Coming from supposedly liberated minds I find that strange and can only hope that this message board is not representative of the majority of ex-witnesses, who hopefully resist wallowing in self-pity and complaining about how badly they've been treated and get on with their lives.
I too have also felt this way. For some they do rejoice, and for others they seem to rejoice in a way that shows itself in hate and hurt feelings. In fact some of my posts and replies to people have been those same words "Get on with it" and it was never recieved with much warm feelings, but rather quick and spiteful attacks. What I have come to learn from that is all people deal with their emotions in different ways. Some will get over it, others never will.
I for one do feel moderate. There are awful people all over the world with dirty little goals. Some of them are witnesses, some of them are not, and some of them are ex-witnesses. I have always made it my aim in life to not make blanket generalizations. Fairmindedness and open to possibilites is often difficult. Especially having been subjected to the control of the WTS. I do understand while people feel the way they do, but some of the attacks, conspiracy theories, and overly sensitive posts here do make me scratch my head, and say to myself "well that's where the witnesses get the idea that Apostates are whack jobs"
I wish you all the luck with your questions, and don't be surprised if you get lots of hatemail. I hope I am mistaken. But I enjoyed your post regardless of if you posted here before, under a different name, how old you are, or what your status is with the organization. I hope you continue to post as well...
