Why is circumcision legal?

Wed, 04 Nov 2009 01:10:10 GMT

Uncircumcised men do not have more health prolems than the circumcised, unless the foreskin is forcefully pulled back. No one follows a religious book completely- everyone's a cherry picker. Therefore religion has nothing to do with it. Having more than one spouse, which in itself is not harmful, is a crime. Yet this is one of the worst kinds of child abuse out there & is perfectly legal. If you're not going to watch the whole 5:41, don't bother commenting.

Should I Put My College Education on Hold?

Mon, 19 Oct 2009 23:22:31 GMT

Ok, growing up my brother and I were sexually tortured by his quote-unquote "father". I am currently in state custody for something else and my brother was forced to move in with his "father" at the time. In August, I wrote this extremely long email to my case worker, court-appointed special advocate, and a therapist that child services picked out for me telling about what he did and the effects it had on me and my brother. Then I sent another extremely long email about the biological, physiological, etc. things the sexual torture can do to one's body. No one cared. I posted something on another site, and people told me to go to the cops, but I've also been told cops may not be that helpful either. His "father"'s house in the city right next door to mine, and supposedly that's why social services didn't care, because my brother no longer lives locally. Not only do I need to get my brother out of that house- and keep in mind he is under eighteen- I need to do it most likely alone. And with trying to get him out will come tons of hassle from multiple sides. I just don't know if i can go to college, especially a four year college, and help out my brother right now. On top of that there are no jobs for recent graduates anyway. I figure I just have to get a minimum wage job that makes enough to pay a few survival bills.

I've Left Him

Tue, 29 Sep 2009 22:49:55 GMT

I had a boyfriend, about six months into it we decided to get married. Six months later, which would be the end of this week- start of this week, I left him. He does not want to stray from his plans, which I don't think are that important, to help me out. Whatever, it wasn't going to work out anyway. I believe in polyamory, he does not. And he never shut up about it every time I talked to another guy, be it "romantically" or just as friends. If you look at one of my earlier blogs, you'll see a lot of things that should've driven me away, but I ignored them when I wasn't blogging about them. I'm sad. I really started depending on him, whereas before him I planned on doing everything on my own. I feel like I'm drowning, but maybe when I go to college an oppurtunity, or even another person, will reveal itself to me. People, don't decide to get serious with those you've met online, especially for teenagers whose online S.O. are older than them. I'm not saying teens are stupid, but there is a reason an older person would go after a teen.

I Think my Stalker is Back

Sat, 26 Sep 2009 14:55:37 GMT

About a couple years ago, I had a stalker. In June of '08 I finally went to the cops. Since then I have seen his silver Odyssey around town several times, including going past my house. I did not go to the cops because I worried they would call the sightings coincidences. Afew days ago I was riding my bike down the street. It was the street I live on, but not the block of the street my house is on, if that makes sense. I saw a green minivan go past me driven by someone that might have been him. He was headed in the direction of my house. The next morning I was walking to school. In June the cop I talked to told me what street the guy lived on based on the license plate, and it is parallel to my street. The street I use to walk to school intersects both our streets. When I got to the corner of the street I use and his street a green minivan turned from his street onto the street I use, and he was headed toward my street. I couldn't see who was driving it. Most recently I got on my bike and as I was riding away from the house a green minivan went past that I want to say was him, I'm not sure. Should I go to the cops or wait it out for more information? Keep in mind if I wait he might find out which house is mine, provided he has yet to do so.

I Am So Freaking Mad

Thu, 30 Apr 2009 23:43:51 GMT

Ok...from the top.

Last Thursday I was on my yahoo email before class, as well as during my second class of the day.

School let's out at 2:50, I was in the school library and tried to get on my yahoo account at 3:05 or 3:10, it kept saying my ID or password was invalid.

I typed slow, payed attention to the keyboard so I wouldn't misspell, looked at the screen when I finished typing to make sure I didn't misspell, but it wouldn't let me on...I tried over and over.

Surprisingly they wouldn't let me re-set my password online.

How the hell else am I to do it?

I emailed Yahoo's "Customer Care" (today I'm thinking care my ass), gave them my MSN email.

They emailed my MSNsaying they'd email again in 24 hours, this was Thursday, it is now Thursday again.

I STILL can't log on, STILL can't reset my password.

I emailed Customer Care again, this time wrote something in the comments section of the form, they once again sent my MSN an email saying they'd email in 24 hours.

Does anyone have the SLIGHTEST clue as to what MIGHT be going on with my Yahoo?

If it helps to know, I've been using the school computers AND public library computers.

The other day Yahoo emailed me something about how to add or subtract contacts from my contact list, but how am I to do that when I can't sign in?

Is He Controlling/Possessive?

Thu, 05 Mar 2009 01:00:36 GMT

I think my boyfriend might be controlling/possessive, obviously.

Here are things I consider signs:

1) When I mention interacting with another male he always says he feels like he's competing, although I always tell him he's not.

2) When I'm talking to another guy I have to tell him I not only have a boyfriend, but my boyfriend and I are serious. If I don't, he'll talk about almost nothing else until I do.

3) Once I tell the male acquaintence, if I hear from him again I have to remind him, and if I don't my boyfriend will talk of almost nothing else until I do.

4) He says many people are lying to me, but I'm only half-sure of this one because he does provide what I consider evidence.

5) When we e-mail, I have to start off with "Hi Jay,", and I have to have some warm/loving signiture at the bottom, often a mirror-image of whatever his signiture was.

6) I always have to call him a pet name, I can never call him "buddy", or "dude".

7) Every time he calls me a name, or says something affectionate, I HAVE to say it back EVERY TIME.

8) I recently went a little while without saying I love him, which of course bothered him...I asked what he'd do if I didn't go back to saying it, he kept saying he didn't know, and that the question was making him uncomfortable...I decided to ask what he would not do, he said he didn't know that either...after I asked if he'd ever hit me for it.

I'm typing these things off the top of my head, so there are probably things I haven't thought of.

I plan on going to a certain college to be with him in person, but don't want to end up abused, or killed, or anything like that.

What should I do?

EDIT MADE ON 6/20: for #4, he only says males lie to me, there's only been 1 instance where he said a female is lying to me...for about 3 months we have been planning a wedding...he says he wants to know everything about me, but when i tell him about an interaction i had w/another guy, he asks why i'm telling him...1 day i told him i would appreciate it if he stopped trying to make me say affectionate things back to him every time, & he cried, accusing me of trying to be mean.
