I listen to podcasts on my phone as I am walking around doing boring jobs. I like early 20th century music so you can find anything you want I guess. I also listen to podcasts from dubstepped (another plug for you dub). That might take your mind off jw rubbish music.

The Boyfriend Pillow! - The Governing Body's worst nightmare!!??
by stuckinarut2 inhttps://www.boyfriendpillow.com.au/.
with all the focus on the new anti-masturbation vide telling all bethelites not to sleep inappropriately with a pillow, surely this has to be the very item that will send the gb into fits of despair?

Will #metoo have an affect on forcing changing attitudes at Watchtower?
by jwfacts indespite decades of the feminist movement, watchtower's attitude of woman being inferior has changed little, with pauline sexism justified as inspired, on the basis that women are lesser emotionally, intellectually and physically.
jehovah's witnesses seem to accept this with little resistance.
is there anything about the #metoo movement that may wake followers up?

The MeToo campaign is only just gathering momentum. Tonight a prominent actor in Aus was blasted on national tv for half an hour by three actresses who worked with him in 2014 on a stage production of The Rocky Horror Picture Show. They claimed inappropriate sexual behaviour during performances.
All of the offences that were alleged to have been committed are already covered under criminal law. There was no mention of complaints to police or police involvement of any kind.
I realise that this sort of behaviour does occur and probably always has and is not going to change. Certain people need to accept that there are men who will seek to take advantage of women in vulnerable positions and that the only remedy is prosecution in a court of law.
Possibly ruining a person's career by indulging in trial by media is not acceptable, and using the excuse that they did not want to affect their careers is also not acceptable. Sometimes we have to bite the bullet.

What is it with this latest wave of "feminism"?
My eldest daughter of forty one is a libertarian, a lawyer and refers to them as Marxists.
My female doctor who I have known for over thirty years has no time for losers who don't make an effort in life.
We have had equal pay for equal work in Australia since the seventies.
I have seen less women who were browbeaten in JW Congs than in general society, the biggest problem seems to be lack of men - real men that is.
I have known my still in wife for almost fifty years since she was 16, we have been married for more than 46 years. Plenty of fights but still very much together.
I could go on and on but that's enough! I don't get this latest "feminism" thing. There are much more serious problems in life.

I was under the impression that paedophilia refers to sexual attraction to pre pubescent children not necessarily those under the age of consent. I looked up the Wikipedia definition and it states much the same. I wish I could cut and paste on my iPad. One day I will make the effort to learn how.

Factual, false, or phenomenon?
by stillin inthis strikes me as strange.
in the last few years i have met four newly associated, and in a couple of cases baptized, brothers in the congregations who say that they did long stints in secret branches of the military and that they were behind the lines, "wet work" operatives.
i might have considered it exceptional that one person who served in such a capacity would even go to church, let alone join up with the likes of jehovah's witnesses.

I found this thread interesting. Living near us in this semi rural area in Aus is a "brother " who served with the American special forces with the Hmong people in the Vietnam war. He has a badly smashed up hip and according to his wife had a really bad time in the war. So these people do become JWs. I thought this was of note because of some of the previous comments.
