Paladin-I truly feel your pain, I do the same thing all the time, but thankfully, there are no elders lurking about near me.

MorbidZ-I wouldn't say my hubby is controling, but he is controled by the WTBS. We have had discussions and he basically agrees with just about everything I say, but...he is so indoctrinated from before birth, that he can't see beyond it or life without it. I hate to upset him anymore than he is, he cries because "I won't be there in the New System".

balthar447-That is exactly what I should do. He would die of embarassment. He is very straight laced, he has been since he was a little kid, no thanks to me-I tend to be outrageous.

Outlaw! lol! you are too much!
baltar447-I do use the incognito mode, and have another page open...still, my son asks what I'm looking at in incog. mode and I have to constantly close the page if I leave the computer for a few minutes. Thanks for the suggestion though!
CoC-No, I don't have a smartphone. Or an iPostate pad.

Does anyone else have to sneak to be here?

What was life like for you as a JW teenager?
by highdose inin the wt's illistrations they portray jw teenagers as happy, together group.
my experinace is that the jw teenagers in the cong were some of the bitchyist backstabbing arse holes i'll ever meet.. it was unheard of for us to engage in group "wholesome activity" as show in the wt's illistrations.
the competition amongst the girls for the handsome, sane and elders sons were cut throat.

Deceived-What a sad story, I'm sorry that you had such a lonely, isolated childhood, captive to an abusive father and a mother who had nervous breakdowns. You really had a tough row to hoe. I'm hoping that your life has been happier now.

It was depressing being a JW as a teen. I was actually extremely pretty and had an amazing looking boyfriend (at least I thought he was amazing looking). The other girls in the circuit, which was huge in area, said horrid things about me. I had never even met these girls or knew they existed. My best friend was invited to a party and these girls started in about me being a bitch and stuck up and so forth. She was stunned, thankfully she told them that I was her best friend and a really nice sweet person. All of this came about because of my handsome boyfriend.
High school was difficult because of being asked to do things that you knew your parents would never let you do, like go to a school dance. Getting asked out by different guys was embarassing because of course you had to say "no" repeated and seem like you thought you were too good for them.
We did manage to get groups to go skiing at night a few times, it was cheaper at night, and it was super fun. We had teens coming from 75 miles to go skiing. Needless to say, the kabosh was put on that, we were having too much fun and the adults in the various congs felt we weren't properly chaperoned.
We had a rip roaring masquerade roller skating party, there were probably 350 people there, it was really fun. Then maybe 6 months later, there was a Watchtower about large parties and masquerade parties where men actually put on womens clothes as costumes. There had been one young brother at our party who wore his obese mother's polyester dress, stuffed to fit him, along with his athletic socks, a crazy wig and he kept his moustache. He looked really funny, no one thought he was a homosexual like the Watchtower infered. He commented to me that he felt that article was directed at him.

Although I understand the posting of signs around town, the encounter you had with the person at McD's was rather rude, I take it there is more to the story on why you did this.

There once was a Jehovah' Witness,
Who made it his business,
To tell everyone it was so late,
Armeggdon had a special date,
'75 fly by and now he is witless.
