so don't ask if you don't want to know

Cut or Uncut, continued
May 11th
Cuz, like… you know, I never could bring myself to put an uncut penis in my mouth. I dunno if I can at this late date either. 
Dudn’t look like I need to worry about dat anymore anyway. Ain’t a lot of volunteers lining up.
Other than for oral, either way it doesn’t really matter to me.
You know how you’re hungry for a certain meal and its been a long time since you had it? You think about it often at all the wrong times, you try to create it yourself but it’s just not the same so you keep jonesing for it. And then finally there it is in front of you and you just scarf it down without thinking or taking the time to really enjoy it because you’ve waited so long… devouring every last bite and still want more? And then you’re like, shit! I did that all wrong, I should have paid more attention and taken my time.
Yeah, that’s exactly like my last sexual experience a few weeks ago.
Well, I hope it wasn’t my last. I’m still hungry.
Cut or Uncut?

I responded to a discussion on Skepchicks, one of my favorite sites. The gist of the discussion is The American Academy of Pediatrics creating a loophole for female genital mutilation to be permitted. Essentially, they say it’s better to do a small ceremonial nick to mollify weird religious parents than to say no and perhaps they go to someone who does the whole barbaric ritual of cutting and mutilating the clit on babies.
Cringe, gasp, and yes it’s a common practice in certain sects.
Anyway, the conversation eventually shifted towards circumcision on boys and blah blah blah. And I said:
The only reason I had both of my sons circumcised 20-odd years ago is because I preferred sex with a circumcised man and I figured their future partners would too. And my new DIL says thanks for thinking a-head!
Apparently these people don’t appreciate my sense of humor. The various replies were as you’d expect but the one that interests me is if I thought about my sons’ pleasure. No I didn’t. I have no idea whether a man feels better pleasure when cut vs. uncut. So I have a couple questions for you:
- Do you know any man who has had a circumcision as an adult, and has had sex before and after to compare?
- Women, which do you prefer?
Yay for choice!

I have a new friend who is a proud DINK (dual-income, no kids). I say yay for her. She’s not young but not old. 30s maybe? Congratulations for getting to solid adulthood and not succumbing to the pressure to have kids.
My daughter swears she doesn’t want children. I have no problem with that. I’ve seen her around children and she’s not… real patient with them. She’d (so far) make a pretty bad parent. She’s slightly amused but easily annoyed by Kira and keeps her at arms length. Oh, she loves her but can’t wait until Kira’s older. I plan on supporting her decision to remain childless.
I have a another young friend. I’ve known her (online) since she was a teenager and knew she didn’t want children. She about bit my head off when I once mentioned that in my experience women often change their minds later in life depending on partner choice, professional success or family pressure. She’s still holding firm:
A metric SHIT-TON of people I know are pregnant or post-partum right now. And it’s freaking me out. Clearly, the only way to balance out the scales is for me to have a LOT of kinky protected sex, and then, I don’t know, strip naked and menstruate all over a Babies “R” Us or something, chanting, “TO BEHOLD MY ENDOMETRIUM IS TO BEHOLD YOUR DOOM. ALL SHALL LOVE ME AND DESPAIR.”
On a side note, this girl also kept me sane when my own children of the same age were getting into trouble and otherwise drove me nutso. I pin all my hopes for the future of mankind on her slender shoulders. (And I hope she doesn’t mind me stealing from her LJ as she’s vicious when provoked.)
I think no matter where my life had led had I made different decisions, I still would have wanted kids. But I completely support those who chose not to for whatever reason.
It’s all about personal choice. Women really don’t have to have children.
I'm already tired of it

You know, this heavy discussion about Arizona and the immigration issue.
Yes, I agree this BILL is wrong, but it’s raising flags where flags should be raised. Maybe now the Feds will do their jobs.
Did they really think just because the U-Haul truck had AZ plates it was more likely a terrorist threat than any other U-Haul truck? U-Haul trucks are crap and break down everywhere. You get what you pay for.Plus, those trucks are national and have plates from all over America – people rent them to move to other places, duh! Cops spending hours checking it out and all the news coverage is a bit of overkill.
The idiots calling for boycotts of Arizona products? Grow the fuck up. First, Arizona Iced Tea isn’t even made here. Calling off conventions only hurts the industries that employ the most immigrant labor. Cleaning people, bus boys, housekeepers, groundskeepers and so on are usually immigrants and whether each one is legal or illegal is anyone’s guess.
The Cubs want to stop coming here for spring training. Take a guess at the percentage of Hispanics employed by Hohokam Stadium and surrounding support businesses. The hotels the teams and fans stay at, the restaurants where they eat, etc.
Boycotting Arizona businesses will mostly hurt the people you are pretending to support.
Stop running your mouth and making quick decisions without doing the research to make sure the stand you make isn’t on a pile of bullshit.
I'm not alone after all!

Okay, I’m alone just not in this particular subject.
I caught an episode of Ancient Aliens (History Channel) last night at Casey’s. Finally, actual scientists – MIT people even – agree there could be a chance that aliens have visited this planet before and possibly there is a genetic connection.
I’ve always found this idea a lot more palatable than either the whole God theory or even the more scientific evolved from muck/monkeys idea. I’ve always thought those ginormous etchings you could only see from the sky, the pyramids, the Mayan culture, and the fact that all over the globe individual societies believed in the same sort of God from the sky all lead towards alien influence. Atlantis? Could have been some alien ship. Stonehenge. Druids.
Don’t laugh.
All theories are laughed at until they’re proved. You never know.
Maybe alien breeding is the missing link?
Oh shaddup. It’s not like I’m out there looking for proof. It’s just something I find more believable (and more interesting) than the other options.
I’m that mean lady
May 2nd
I ventured to Wal*Mart today only because Mom sent me a gift card for my birthday.
Almost as soon as I entered the store I almost ran over this 7-8 year old girl running loose. Cue dirty look.
A short time later I was wandering through the women’s clothing department and she came careening through and went face first into a clothing rack, and of course started crying. I smirked.
Eventually I headed for the grocery area to pick up a few necessities. Halfway down the cereal aisle there she was again, walking backwards without looking. Being a crowded Sunday the lane was packed and I had no where to go so she slammed right into my cart. “Jesus Christ! Don’t you have a keeper?”
So I get dirty looks from everyone else in the vicinity, although none of them claimed the kid.
I may not have been the best parent, but MY kids never ran loose like animals in a store.
I really hate other people’s children.
