  Hello, everyone.

  I feel like I was in a coma for the past five years and just woke up. After seeing some videos posted on here showing clips from JW.org, I went there the see all the new bells and whistles they now have on their site. Man, how things have changed!

  I have a question about something that caught my eye. Most of the men doing the broadcast have rings on fingers on both hands. I admit that I left the USA four years ago and now reside in Brazil, so maybe it's just that I'm out of touch with recent U.S. culture.

  So, is it normal nowadays for people to have multiple ringed fingers or is it a Governing Body hipster thing?

  I edited my post... Here's the (edited) original:

  Hello, everyone.

  As noted in the topic, I joined here 13 years ago. I last posted here over 5 years ago. I just now learned that this site still exists!

  I remember the first time back in 2002 when I started reading all the posts of people who were having the same doubts, insecurities and questions as me. I was scared to death to come here but I couldn't resist.

  Anyway, 13 years later, all those years spent as a JW are now a mere blip in the radar for me but it took quite a long time to get here. Still, I know it's a different road for everyone. So, all the best to all of you who are now going through what I have also gone through.

  Porn is .....Mostly Irrelevant

  by metatron in

  this is one of those things that can amaze you (well, me actually).

  you are taught a relentless fear about porn and it gets demonized heavily - but what is the real result?.

  most guys don't want a porn star for a wife and separate fantasy from reality in regard to interaction with the opposite sex.. maybe that's why religious types like witnesses demonize it so much: they are unable to distinguish fact from fantasy.. see:.
