My Son Saw Sexually Explicit Material Online -- What Should I Do?

It was stated in print at the begining of the video that the child was nine. But I too find myself wondering what the nature of the material was. If it was ordinary sexual interactio­n, whether straight or gay, between two people, that would be reasonably easy to explain. It might be embarrassi­ng but I don't think it would be scarring. However if the material was violent or degrading or including such ugliness as children being violated sexually or bestiality­, then it would be scarring. I wish they would have been more clear about the nature of the material.

Ru Paul's Drag U

I am watching Ru Paul's Drag U, and I have tears in my eyes. I would love to be on Drag U too. When I was in high school and in my early 20's I participated in theatre. Over the years I've gained a lot of weight and lost my confidence. It wasn't that I ever thought I was beautiful, but I have let the opinions of others dull my inner beauty. I want to get my spark and theatrical persona back and gain some new confidence. I'm going to keep looking to see how I could send them an audition tape. It sounds like this would be a wonderful thing for so many of us!

"Ugly" Dolls and Narrow Views

In a rather judgmental post about the "ugliness" of the "Reborn" baby dolls, the author states:

" I can’t imagine cuddling what looks like a corpse to heal from the loss of a real baby"

Wow--a little compassion, maybe. Not everyone thinks/feels the way you do. The devastation that someone who has lost a baby feels is beyond comprehension. I feared that I would lose my son when he was first born because of certain complications. Had that happened I don't know what would have become of me. I have had something of a traumatic past and I have certain psychological issues, and although I do recognize and live in material reality, during certain very traumatic times in my life those boundaries have become blurred. I remember on one occasion I lost a very beloved kitten and I found a plush kitten toy that looked like him to remember him by.

I am glad that your experiences in life lead you to have such coldly "sane" views on things. Not everyone is wired that way.

Also, these dolls don't look "ugly" to me, though I would not pay $1000 for them. Perhaps that is the purpose of the dolls--to challenge our narrow concepts of beauty. I once babysat for a baby whom everyone thought was ugly. I didn't see him as ugly. I saw him as a baby.

This one looks as if she might have Down syndrome. Wow--imagine being proud of your baby in spite of her handicap, or wanting to remember the little one who didn't survive, who happened to have Down syndrome. Unheard of!

I think it's nice to see dolls that don't look like they came from a mold. Though it would be good if they were a tad more affordable!

One commenter said these dolls would be good to use as babies in movies (not a rude "horror movie" comment) and I agree! I think they lend realism. Personally if I had money I think I would add one to my collection.

My son looked rather like an adorable little gnome when he was born. He was not a stereotype pretty baby but he was a beautiful baby. He would probably be embarrassed if I did but one day I would like to have a baby doll in the likeness of him when he was first born. He would also be embarrassed about the fact that he will always be my baby, even when he has achieved his goal of becoming a pharmacist and/or medical doctor!

Widow Says Eating Dead Husband's Ashes Helps Her Cope (VIDEO)

I was initially going to remark that despondenc­y makes people do strange things. However, I am wondering if she might have a form of pica, which causes people to crave consuming things like dirt, chalk, or laundry soap. I'm glad she is seeking help. I hope she will be all right.
Read the Article at HuffingtonPost

I am also appalled by the number of cruel, ignorant comments regarding this subject. No, pica (if that's what it is) is not a well-known disorder. But remarks about how gross this person is, or, more stupidly yet, about her size, is beyond the pale. Grow up. This individual is suffering. Let us have a little compassion­.

Margaret Jensvold, Maryland Mom Who Killed Son Ben Barnhard, Agonized Over School Costs

How completely and utterly sad. I live with suicide ideation myself, and have often thought about killing myself with the burden of debt that I have been under the last five years. I would not have thought of killing my son. In fact he is the only reason I am still alive. This woman must have been in utter despondenc­y to commit this act.

As well, it is time to address the bullying of heavy children. This is not excusable any more than bullying gay children or children with handicaps. Whether or not it is "healthier­" to be thin is a moot point. This boy, whatever size he was, should not have had to endure taunting. We need to stop giving carte blanche to those who scapegoat larger people. Cruelty is cruelty.

http://ping.fm/34uwM Cheesy Politics: Name calling not working.

Name Calling Accomplishes Nothing But Breeding Ill Will

What follows is a response to an article on Mediate.com which started with a typically incendiary statement by Rush Limbaugh comparing the London rioters to Obama voters. Funny, I voted for Obama and I never started one single riot. I walked to the polling place, voted, and walked home, all without setting one single house or car on fire. I have been at least moderately disappointed in Obama's performance, particularly when it comes to issues such as repealing Don't Ask Don't Tell (sure took damn long enough) and standing up for the gay voters who helped put him in office. But if the choice were him or Homo-Hatin' Bachmann, I'd certainly vote him in again. Is anyone else scared by the idea that this hate-filled individual is being considered at all seriously for the highest office in the land--or that she was able to get voted into ANY kind of office?

Here is my commentary on the article:

All the name-calling is getting us exactly nowhere. I am 46 years old and never since I was a child during the Viet Nam war have I seen the country more divided. People talk about wanting to vote in more conservative candidates because of the prosperity during the Reagan era. Reagan was nothing like today's right wing reactionaries. He was a moderate Republican and a gentleman, and would be ashamed of the vehemence displayed by his party today. 

The biggest problem I have with today's conservative candidates is their refusal to abide by separation of church and state. They bring their religious views to the forefront of many of their debates. This is intolerable and will continue to polarize the parties to the point that nothing positive can be accomplished.

I would like to see more fiscal conservatism and less Fundamentalist reactionary rhetoric in the Right wing. I would like to see less name calling and finger pointing on both sides. It is accomplishing nothing and so much needs to be fixed for the good of all.

Awww, I love hermit crabs! There is a nature program about them. I didn't have much luck with them. They need a lot of special care.

Is a Mama's Boy Always a Bad Thing?

A hilarious question at the GuySpeak website postulated whether all men had a "packed" not to talk about the horror which is being a "Mama's Boy." Here was my reply to one commenter who stated that her guy was a "mama's boy," but that just meant that he was respectful to and had a close relationship with his mom, and she respected that.

I hope that one day I will be lucky enough to have a daughter in law like you!

My son and I have a very close relationship, which may mean that he's a bit of a "Mama's Boy" but he isn't a wuss, and I don't order him about. He's 21 years old and studying to become a pharmacist, and I actually do everything I can to ensure that he will be successful, including helping him with cleaning, cooking, and getting to school. I would like to think that I will be respectful of his relationship with his significant other when he gets one and I would expect the same courtesy from her.
