They wouldn't have the problem of the high-heeled, immodest shoes if they would just let everyone dress comfortably, in real clothing, like pants...then the sisters wouldn't feel the need to have their exposed legs look good and wear their immodest, high-heeled shoes...which I do not think are immodest.

My story so far
by brainmelt ini've been trying to avoid posting this, due to extreme paranoia but its time to post my story.
i hope to not post too many details, as we've avoided being df so far, our group elder was young and lovely and cool and i just hope that in time he learns the ttatt.. i'm a regular lurker on here, occasional poster (i can't post much as my phone browser only lets me read but not post, so i only post on the odd occasion i get a time alone on the pc).
i have been fading since round about last september ( so almost my first anniversary of learning ttatt).

Brainmelt-I'm so sorry about your child's illness. It is reassuring that medical science has advanced so much and that cancer, while still scary, is often curable. You and your family have all my best wishes.

Barbara-I sincerely doubt he would remember me...I've never been too terribly memorable. I hope that he has mellowed with age, maybe even getting out of an extremely male dominated organization caused him to reevaluate himself, and learn even the ladies have the right to think. Have fun whenever you do meet him.
I want to thank you for alerting everyone to all the ongoing child abuse cases, this must be a rather daunting work for you and you do it so unflaggingly. Thanks again!

Staelins was the type of elder who could really speak charismatically. He was also a major egotist. His son 'J' is/was a real estate agent in Wisconsin...he appears to be somewhat influeneced by his father's personality. His son 'E' married a woman who was somewhat older than he, a pioneer sister from a huge family. Don't know what happened to his daughter 'P'. He had younger children also, one who died falling off a bicycle. His wife 'D' was sweet, but totally and completely controlled by her husband. He wouldn't let her dye her hair, wear makeup or do anything w/o his permission.
He once gave a talk at a congregation in the area where he insinuated women who were not menstruating were like animals in heat...that went over like a lead balloon and he started losing his thunder and people started to question his rationality. He really denigerating women.
His apostacy from the WTBTS seems to give credence to their thought that apostates are egotists who try to get men to follow them, he was an egotist and I cannot feel that his defection is a victory for any of us who have left the org.

I had the extreme displeasure of personally knowing this odious man 30 years ago. It would've been difficult to find a more inflated ego than his. He kept his wife and daughter under his thumb-I'm surprised he didn't force them to wear burqa's. He once said if his daughter, "P", didn't wear a belt on her pants, it meant she was 'loose'...nor was she to ride in a car with her brothers, because worldly people might see her and think she was immoral, being with a boy...what a whack job.

You have a very powerful weapon at your disposal. Anything in there that would possibly help with the Elizabeth McFarland sex abuse case?

TotallyADD-I have a half brother too, one I have never met. He was given up for adoption. I yearn to know him, yet cannot find him due to the fact that he was adopted out in another part of the world. It hurts to know he is there, and we don't even speak the same native tongue. Yet, it would be wonderful to hug him and let him know that he is a missing part of my life.
Whatever you decide to do, I wish you the very best!
