among those making cleveland extra gay this week are male prostitutes who are in high demand among older, allegedly heterosexual male republican delegates.. the new york post reports: .
i’ve seen 10 clients so far,” one male escort said.. “most of them were first-timers.
you could tell they were nervous, but once they became more comfortable, they seemed to be having a good time.”.
I dont see the point here.
Traveling and wanting to walk on the wild side (the guy in the article mentioned "first timers") or just seeking male on male sex period, is now a political party thing?
So am I supposed to leave this article thinking Dems dont do this?
to briefly state this: we were hardcore jws, my siblings, my wife and her two sisters.
we have 18 nieces and nephews among us from late 20's to 55. only one is a card-carrying, practicing jw and he's had his problems.. what's hilarious, is that most of the 18 in the next generation would still identify themselves as jws to the rest of the family, but all are leading double lives extraordinaire, doing exactly what they want to do.
most would be honest with me and have been.
The religion is encouraging this by its own actions. Harshly penalizing people for things that should be handled in families privately, controlling (or attempting to) all aspects of life, only encourages double lives.
The comment above about the religion rotting from the inside out couldnt be more true.
watching the news from the past few nights, i have come to the conclusion that the only convention that's crazier and more out of touch with reality than a jw convention is a us political convention.the strange-o show that is going on right now in cleveland, oh makes watching a bunker video look more sober and realistic by comparison.i have made the effort to do my civic duties as a voter, but these conventions require a devotion that is fanatical..
Funny that you would say that Captain S!
I was watching PBS coverage of the convention the other night and my thought was how very similar they are rather than how different.
A bunch of people gathered togeher in a building repeating an ideology and using the energy that all that generates to convince themselves of it.
All seems very similar to me.

Hi openheart. I love your name...openheart.
I wanted to wish you a warm welcome!
hi, i just signed up.
i'm 35, i've been baptized 20 years, married 15 years.
it seems like the wife and i are going in opposite directions spiritually.
Hi, welcome!
There is a wide and diverse group here. I think you will find people who you can relate to. This is a wonderful place for that.
"blue" lives matter!
- sheriff david clarke at the rnc.
this bs really makes my blood boil.
ALL lives matter.
Or should.
I agree that there are stereotypes and injustices that need addressed.
However, coming up with buzz words and phrases such as "Black lives matter" and "Blue lives matter" does more to polarize than it does to fix.
my wife and i, both out of the religion for nearly twenty years, live in the same border town as our 44 year old only son.
we have scant contact with our numerous jw relatives, although a handful of clever "double life" nieces and nephews socialize with our son.. we care for our six year old grandson weekdays while our single parent son makes a living.
we've been infinitely better grandparents than we were parents, primarily because of our exit from a high control cult, but also because of life experience.
I love the balance you and your wife as grandparents are providing to your grandson.
Although there are a host of reasons to complain about a JW upbringing, for purposes of simplicity we can all agree that it is highly unbalanced and produces young adults ill equipped for the world.
Thanks to your son and yourselves, your grandson is being spared that. I think that is wonderful.
the watchtower today says not to think of sex, or to have sexual fantasies.
i'm just wondering... how many people in the hall hearing this watchtower today would be having sexual fantasies?
sitting there thinking about sister hottie or brother hunky ?.

As humans with functional sexual organs it's practically impossible to not think about sex it's how we are built. The Borg are basically setting the sheep up to fail.
And do people really go to the elders about their sexual fantasies? Which is what the Watchtower is telling them to do?
So how do they explain away the Song of Solomon?
Its inspired you know...
as our fade continues, the wife and i have decided to take up "the forbidden practice of.......yoga"!!!!😱.
i was quite skeptical at first but so far it has really de-stressed our life in quite a spectacular way!!
not to mention the physical benefits.. anyone else try yoga or a similar discipline?
sparky1
extremely difficult and demonized exercises which twist the human body in terrible convulsive positions; and only a Satanic mind could conceive of thus dishonoring the body Jehovah gave. These postures are held indefinitely; thus showing the entire lack of reason behind it,....
Congrats to her (and you)
She is on her way!
