Let's talk private...

Men are fascinating creatures.  I've been trying to 'figure' them out, or at least do my best at understanding their mentality for years.  I'm aware that I will never be absolute with that accomplishment since I am never going to be one myself, but I like to pat myself on the back for being pretty damn insightful regardless.  I slowly built close friendships with the opposite sex as a young teen, and thankfully blossomed into a tell-it-like-it-is smart ass by the time my high school diploma was in grasp.  Now, I am sure to relate to any gentlemen I meet my honesty policy; I'm going to tell you the truth whether you like it or not, because if any woman is going to be truthful about what you're doing is wrong/stupid/etc, it's going to be me.  Life is too damn short to let things slide that shouldn't.  Don't confuse me with being a Manhater, I've been called that more times than I can count.  Even one of my greatest, longtime friends Caleb referred to me as a bitch when he first met me.  My sharp tongue can get under the nerves easier than most, I get it.  But if I hated men like some assume, I wouldn't bother dating, sleeping, or making friends with any of 'em.

Duh.

I write about the behaviors of men I encounter that is completely unacceptable, not the man himself, there is a difference.  I am up front about what I write for a living, and it is solely the guys' choice to continue seeing me or not.  All he has to do is not do any act deemed asshole worthy that I would bring to others attention/warn other women about, and he'll be solid.  Surprisingly to the majority I've warned, they still haven't grasped the concept and act out as tools anyway.  Not my fault.  I am free to write and speak the truth as I mull through my dating journey to find my lobster (old F.R.I.E.N.D.S. refference here).

With that set in place, being around testosterone enough as I have, it has been easy to pick up on mans' greatest topic of joy that duplicates as his biggest insecurity; his penis.  A guy simply can't tell one  joke and let it lie, he's got to build a vocabulary world around his dick, and usually just to compete with other males around him for best junk of all.  It's amusing to me that they seem to have this idea that a woman will care as much as they do.  Yoko Ono once said, "I wonder why men get serious at all.  They have this delicate, long thing hanging outside their bodies which goes up and down by its own will.  If I were a man I would always be laughing at myself." Not to be the killjoy of every mans' hopes and dreams here, but Yoko had a point.  Why bring attention to something out of your physical control?  Women do not see your package the way you do at all.  In order to shed some light on the subject, I'm going to address the key points that men seem to continue getting wrong or have confused beliefs in....


The Look and Size


You're all so sure that a woman wants her man to be packing a third leg in order to be satisfied.  Um, no. Statistics have shown that the erect penis size of most men — 68 percent — is between 4.6 and 6 inches long. About 16 percent of men have an erect penis size longer than 6.1 inches, and of those only 2.5 percent are over 6.9 inches. The rest of the group are the shorties that every man fears being part of.  So rest assured, all of you guys who insist that you're bigger than your counterpart, the odds are against you, and women already know that.  It's not even an appealing part of the body to look at.  Sorry, but that's the truth, even if you're wrestling with anaconda stature down there, we don't see your offering as an attractive piece at all.  We enjoy what it feels like, and that's only if you know how to work with what you've got.  Length to regular standards is just fine, girth can really be helpful if you come up short in that arena, and too little/too big are gravely disappointing.  How can too big be disappointing?  A woman doesn't want to feel like her insides are getting pummeled fight club style every time you get busy, and she sure as hell doesn't want to endure the uncomfortable gag/choking reflex when oral sex comes into play, which brings me to point number two....


Fellatio Boundaries

What happens when a guy spends countless hours over the years watching smutty porn as example of what to expect in the real world?  He will bring it to the bedroom and cause quite the humorous commotion with the lady in question.  Girls in porn are acting, everyone knows that, but in order for men to get off from it, they convince themselves that she means every moan and groan, and the way oral is portrayed is how all women do it.  The idea is so laughable that I can't stand it!  Remember what I said about your staff not being pretty?  Privates on both sexes are not eye candy, so the eagerness to get our mouths all over it that the C class of Hollywood wants you to believe is a joke.  Like I explained to one of my guy friends the other day who I had penis conversation with that inspired this post, a woman can truly enjoy satisfying her mans' member with her mouth, but only if the love she has for him is real.  There are women who will fake it like Jenna Jameson because they think they have to in order to win over a new guy, and there are women who simply won't go there for personal hygienic reasons.  Life is a crap shoot when it comes to sexual compatibility.  You can't ever expect it's alright to unleash your tonsil tickler in a forceful face-fuck manner either without discussing your desire to first.  That's a move way too many men make the mistake of doing.  Just like....

Backdoor Surprise

The taboo talk of anal sex is bound to be addressed in most relationships.  Every man has heard the positives of it being a tighter destination for his meat to travel (which is true, because it's mainly used as an exit and rarely sees entry, duh), and most will sweet talk/convince/plea with their woman to allow them to try it at least once.  Women who have yet to cross into that realm have thought about it as well....just like the women who find it just as enjoyable as vaginal penetration, and the women who find it to be one of the most disgusting and painful experiences they have ever endured.  Just like with the rules of fellatio, there are stipulations when it comes to dancing the chocolate cha cha.  You can never just 'slip it in by accident' (why men think this lame fake excuse will always fly is beyond me), there must always be a great deal of lubrication (not spit, Vaseline, or whatever crazy sub you have on hand because you're that desperate to get it), and you've got to take it slow.  My counter to being asked for taking part in this act has often been, "I will accept, as long as you take it to".  Maybe it's a cheap shot since most men want to give and not receive in this arena, but one guy did oblige, so you try and tell me that it's not a big deal.  It can be pleasurable, or it can be a hot, uncomfortable mess.  It all comes down to who you're partaking in the act with.


Cell Phone/Online Penis Spreads


Who was the woman to first receive a mans' dick via text or online messaging and told them it was scrumptious?  Why do men think that taking the time to lose the pants and give their ween its' own photo shoot in the best lighting (you hope) will have the ladies come running like dogs in heat?  Do you know the vulnerable state you put yourselves in by making such a ridiculous choice?  You run the risk of her not only laughing at the media received, it also give her the ability to forward Mr. Winky to anyone on her phones contact list, or on the internet to be a permanent addition to a Penis Fail forum.  Yes, men love a woman who will dish out a topless picture for their own personal viewing.  Boobies are fun.  Why a guy will think we want the favor returned with a dickshot is confusing at best.  I have never been in favor of this presumptuous act, and I am positive in saying that most, if not all women agree with me on this one.  It's pervy and unnecessary at best.  If you want to keep your dignity in check, refrain from making the dreaded decision of sharing your wanker with the world.  All it takes is one woman appalled or scorned, and you're screwed.


There may be  more on the subject I have missed out on, but these few I've shared are key.  Hopefully this clears up any confusion or ideals you've had on the matter and can finally have a little bit of clarity.  If there's anything that I didn't touch on the subject, I'm more than happy to add my two cents ;] - SC. & J.

Letter from Baby !

Hi
Mommy. ...I'm your baby. You don't know me yet, I'm only a few weeks
old. You're going to find out about me soon, though, I promise. Let me
tell you some things about me. My name is John, and I've got beautiful
brown eyes and black hair. Well, I don't have it yet, but I will when
... I'm born. I'm going to be your only child, and you'll call me your one
and only. I'm going to grow up without a daddy mostly, but we have each
other. We'll help each other, and love each other. I want to be a doctor
when I grow up. You found out about me today, Mommy! You were so
excited, you couldn't wait to tell everyone. All you could do all day
was smile, and life was perfect. You have a beautiful smile, Mommy.

It will be the first face I will see in my life, and it will be the best
thing I see in my life. I know it already. ... ... ... ... ... Today was
the day you told Daddy. You were so excited to tell him about me! ...He
wasn't happy, Mommy. He kind of got angry. I don't think that you
noticed, but he did. He started to talk about something called wedlock,
and money, and bills, and stuff I don't think I understand yet. You were
still happy, though, so it was okay. Then he did something scary,
Mommy. He hit you. I could feel you fall backward, and your hands flying
up to protect me. I was okay... but I was very sad for you. You were
crying then, Mommy. That's a sound I don't like. It doesn't make me feel
good. It made me cry, too. He said sorry after, and he hugged you
again. You forgave him, Mommy, but I'm not sure if I do. It wasn't
right. You say he loves you... why would he hurt you? I don't like it,
Mommy. Finally, you can see me! Your stomach is a little bit bigger, and
you're so proud of me! You went out with your mommy to buy new clothes,
and you were so so so happy. You sing to me, too. You have the most
beautiful voice in the whole wide world. When you sing is when I'm
happiest. And you talk to me, and I feel safe. So safe. You just wait
and see, Mommy. When I am born I will be perfect just for you. I will
make you proud, and I will love you with all of my heart. I can move my
hands and feet now, Mommy. I do it because you put your hands on your
belly to feel me, and I giggle. You giggle, too. I love you, Mommy.
Daddy came to see you today, Mommy. I got really scared. He was acting
funny and he wasn't talking right. He said he didn't want you. I don't
know why, but that's what he said. And he hit you again. I got angry,
Mommy. When I grow up I promise I won't let you get hurt! I promise to
protect you. Daddy is bad. I don't care if you think that he is a good
person, I think he's bad. But he hit you, and he said he didn't want us.
He doesn't like me. Why doesn't he like me, Mommy? You didn't talk to
me tonight, Mommy. Is everything okay? It's been three days since you
saw Daddy. You haven't talked to me or touched me or anything since
that. Don't you still love me, Mommy? I still love you. I think you feel
sad. The only time I feel you is when you sleep. You sleep funny, kind
of curled up on your side. And you hug me with your arms, and I feel
safe and warm again. Why don't you do that when you're awake, any more?
I'm 21 weeks old today, Mommy. Aren't you proud of me? We're going
somewhere today, and it's somewhere new. I'm excited. It looks like a
hospital, too. I want to be a doctor when I grow up, Mommy. Did I tell
you that? I hope you're as excited as I am. I can't wait. ...Mommy, I'm
getting scared. Your heart is still beating, but I don't know what you
are thinking. The doctor is talking to you. I think something's going to
happen soon. I'm really, really, really scared, Mommy. Please tell me
you love me. Then I will feel safe again. I love you! Mommy, what are
they doing to me!? It hurts! Please make them stop! It feels bad!
Please, Mommy, please please help me! Make them stop! Don't worry Mommy,
I'm safe. I'm in heaven with the angels now. They told me what you did,
and they said it's called an abortion. Why, Mommy? Why did you do it?
Don't you love me any more? Why did you get rid of me? I'm really,
really, really sorry if I did something wrong, Mommy. I love you, Mommy!
I love you with all of my heart. Why don't you love me? What did I do
to deserve what they did to me? I want to live, Mommy! Please! It
really, really hurts to see you not care about me, and not talk to me.
Didn't I love you enough? Please say you'll keep me, Mommy! I want to
live smile and watch the clouds and see your face and grow up and be a
doctor. I don't want to be here, I want you to love me again! I'm really
really really sorry if I did something wrong. I love you! I love you,
Mommy. Every abortion is just… One more heart that was stopped. Two more
eyes that will never see. Two more hands that will never touch. Two
more legs that will never run. One more mouth that will never speak Stop
Abortion Now. :/

Under Pressure !

So,
I have no idea what goes on with the local Housing here on Post
All I do know that they set out to clean all houses in the Community.
Well, that is all good, so far,
yet I've found that after their week-long Cleaning Spree the Area around my House looks somewhat more beat up than it was before.
Without letting me know I've had my Freezer moved, aswell as all the Shelves and little Storage Dressers got emptied out and and the Inside just left standing there, my Bakers Rack got also emtied out and ' left for dead ' and the Mosaic Table got removed to the other side of the Porch. Everywhere are white Paint chips - also at the Main Entrance - which is all pretty much har to scrub off the Floors / Wood.

My Windows are all splatted now, as in Water Splats all over, the Frontdoor got greenish slime on it and the leftover cut Grass from the "Lawn Care Crew" Days before sticks along the Stairway, Screendoor and Brickwall.
Anyways, I've called Housing to find what was up with that
and the nice Lady just told me that : ' Yeah, of course Ma'am, YOU can clean it back up and move it back where it was. No Problem. Have a nice Day ! ' 
Really now Housing Crew, what kind of *Sh8* are you smoking ?? My Blood is boiling !! I've had a perfectly CLEAN Porch until you guys came along and messed it all up !!

Ever heard the Phrase " Leave a Place the Way you've found it ! " !!!!??

Oh Gemini !!

Detox the Soul

There is a lot of talk today about the need to detox the physical body. But what about the soul? Our soul drives us and moves us forward. It shows us our path. If we are carrying baggage within our soul, we are not completely free to carry out our mission.

Ironically, part of that mission is to release the toxic issues that hold us back. So until we discover the toxins within our soul, we are lead in a mindless circle. Repeating habits and creating programming that hold us back.

Our soul carries the memories of every life we have experienced. When these experiences are negative and not properly healed, they cling to us, awaiting release.


Many individuals experience fears/phobias and have no idea where they originated from. No event in their present life has occurred to bring on this phobia, but it exists none-the-less.

It's been my experience (personal and study) that some of these fears/phobias stem from unresolved past-life issues. To detox the soul, these issues need to be addressed, healed and released.

Detoxing the soul takes serious, honest soul searching. We have to be emotionally and spiritually ready to battle these inner demons. The first step is acknowledgement. If we're in constant denial of an issue, we're not ready to deal with it. If this is the case, forward movement is prevented and an opportunity will have to come at a later date.


This is how we repeat patterns and repeated patterns are a good indicator of a denial issue. The acknowledgement of our soul's shadow(s) is the most important step. From there, we move on to healing the issue.

Healing the issue is where the emotional pain becomes fierce. It's easier to side-step the issue, pretending it's not there. We have to dig deep, probing the inner depths of our psyche to discover why the issue is there to begin with.

The fear/phobia itself holds many clues as to why it's presenting itself. We have to be willing to see it for what it is and understand this fear/phobia is in the past. Fear is something we learn from experience or it's taught to us by another, but it's our responsibility to overcome it.


Meditation and soul searching exercises can assist in overcoming past issues. It's the responsibility of each individual to find what works for them and apply it.

After you have worked through the healing process, it's time to release the issue once and for all. The most difficult part of releasing is not falling back into old programming.

Our emotions need to hold on to whatever comfort zone issues have been created. This includes the toxic ones. Releasing them means we have to move into unknown territory. So it seems logical that if you have acknowledged and healed an issue, releasing would come easy, but your mind will make a final attempt to hold on to that comfort zone.


Continue to tell yourself you are alright and there is nothing to fear by releasing this and moving forward. It's our responsibility to find the courage to face these inner shadows and heal them.

Detoxing the soul is a process. A process that takes time and patience. It involves acknowledgement, healing and releasing the issues we'd rather keep buried. But we'll never be free of these issues if we keep them locked inside, buried under an avalanche of emotion.

Shadow work has never been more important. The lifting of the veils over our world brings almost instant manifestation of our thoughts. If we continue to live in the shadows of our past, we will never be free. We get what we ask for...even when we don't believe we are asking for it.

On Friendship.

This blog was inspired by a fellow Blogger.

I recently came across her Write about Real Friends, it made me think.
Friends are supposed to be there whenever you need them, they see you how you really are and tell you the truth. But, how do you know who if your Friends is a REAL one ?

I never had too many Problems to connect with People, but being in the Military really makes it so much harder. I've learnt my Lessons about Army Wifes - and I don't mean the kind you might see on TV. The words " Crazy " and " Backstabbing " come to Mind. When I first moved here I thought I'd make a lot of Friends rather quickly, instead, after 3 years I'm still doing everything solo.
Within the Time on this Post I've been the " flavor of the Month ",  a " Gold Donkey " and a " Cover-up ".
So, how do you choose a Friend if you need to have your Guard up at almost all times ?
I've also learnt that some Women don't stop even for kids and want to pull your Child right into whatever Argument they got with you. And that is where it hits the Brakes for me : If someone decides to spread Rumors about my Kids or twists Stories so their personal Attention Level rises a few Bars ! - That's just plain dirty and beyond mean!!

Truth be told, I have withdrawn myself a lot. It's sad, and I never thought that something like this could ever happen to me...but yah, I won't deny it.
I miss my former Bestie and it is wonderful to finally be connected again!! Thinking back on how much fun we had back in them days, before we were married and had Kids, makes me smile every time. Now, she also has found a new best Friend, which is kinda hurtful to see, but I wish her all the Luck in the world ! Afterall I can't expect her to wait for me to MAYBE come back home. Another good Friend of mine committed Suicide a few Months before I moved to the USA, which struck me very deeply because we were Besties since we were Babies.

The last Friends I thought I've found here in WA turned out to be -1- a little Cheat. She went to Places just to meet up with a Fling, and I covered in case her Hubby asked. Number 2 was someone who didn't really like paying for Things out of her own Pocket. - She was a Friend I really couldn't afford ( nor do I have the letters ' ATM ' tattooed onto my Forehead ).
I've joined an active Group , too. Only to see people smile in my Face and talk behind my Back. Surely, I do have my Flaws, but shouldn't that be something a true Friend is supposed to tell me ?

- Hold up, I remember, I'm a lone Wolf here. But believe me, howling at the Moon without a Pack can be very depressing at times.

No good Deed ...

...gets left unpunished.
Today actually started out to be a slow one, went to the Thriftstore and consigned Items, picked up my Check and thought I'd head to the Bank because that's where the Money goes. Anyways, I did change my Mind once I saw the Line. So I got back into the Car and drove home. Like I've said, a normal dull day.

A bit along on the Interstate I saw a Woman in a long Coat walking along the Shoulder lane, leaving her Car behind. She had quite a Distance to walk still, so I pulled over and waited.
The Lady got into my Car and explained that she'd like to stop at the next Gas station. She was a bit upset about her broken down Car and thankful that I've had stopped.

2 Minutes into the Drive I've heard a loud Pop to my Car, I've checked but saw nothing. The little Lady then said that I've must have hit a big Rock along the side, nothing special. Yes, nothing special !

So I dropped her off at the Station and continued on my way home.

Back on the Interstate, there, I've heard a loud ' Ka-Dong ' , and I knew, right then, that I had a flat one - Tire, that is! While I tried to make my way home save and sound I've had a gazillion Cars passing me by, with people in them pointing and yelling. ... And I just thought to myself that the Universe really knows when to screw you , apparently right after you've done YOUR own good Deed for the day !!
I've made it to the Front Gate...

But what if I couldn't reach A. ? I had to pick up the Kids from School in a few Minutes, so I called his Cell.
A. was at a Fair on Fort Lewis, there was no way of knowing if he'd even hear his Phone ring. Should I walk to School ? Get towed ? Who else could I call, who could help me ? I tried. He picked up. Thank you, phew. After a short Explanation of why and what had happened I waited ... what else could I have done really?!!

I stood leaning against my Car and watched people pass by. I've seen them look at the Damage and I've heard a lot of BS- remarks, YES, I know that a flat Tire isn't a nice thing to have ... DUUUH !!
I've waited like a Dog tied to a Pole, until a Couple came by, stopped and looked closer and ... HOLD YOUR BREATH NOW... asked if I needed help!
He's a Mechanic, oh boy, I was in Luck !! He got out my Spare and refilled the Air in it just in Time for A.
to get down and dirty in his Slacks to change a Tire... Yay !!

So thank you strange Couple from the Visitors Center for not just walking by with a Grin. And thank you A. for getting your beige Slacks all covered in Dirt just to get me Home.

And to you, Universe, thanks for this unfair Punishment... I'll remember it next Time !
