So are you all saying we're different??

ha ha, Half! I wish we could upload wav files. I'd record one and impress everyone with my farting prowess. How damned feminine of me, huh?

By the way, I've had a penis for more than a day - all my life if we're being honest - and I can tell you the novelty wears off pretty quickly. After that you just follow it around while it makes all your decisions for you.

Sometimes you know that it's a bad decision, but you just do it anyway.

Cuz as long as it's happy...you're happy.

Until the next morning that is.

LOL!!! As long as "it's" happy ... that's so funny! Why do men talk about their penis' like it's another person?? Women don't talk that way about their vagina's.

HEY! Speak for yourself, Vac! Mine is named, "my private secret area" (just ask my best friend, she'll confirm that I call it that). It's special. You just pigeonholed women again...stop it!

Bigd, as nearly as I can figure out, it is about Big Bertha helping Mocha lay purple tiles in her bathroom.

I guess that'll show me not to generalize about women and shopping.

Were there any comments about baby boomers, remaining single, and being happy about it. "Many finding singlehood a desirable state>."

I'd like to hear about that.

I don't see where it's desirable. Why would you want to be alone? The world is cold enough as is. Hey I can watch any TV show on expanded basic. Then why am I not happy?

People are as happy as they choose themselves to be.

I'm a firm believer that happiness is most often a choice, an attitude.

Being alone...

I don't have to share.
I don't have to compromise.
I don't have to clean up after anyone.
I'm not accountable to another person.
I don't have to have sex, so I don't have to have a man. I can pick who and when, if I want to.

I can eat what and when I want.
Girlfriends, mom and daughter are there for my emotional needs. (They're better listeners anyway)

No one expects anything from me...except me.

What's there NOT to be happy about?

I think that everyone basically wants to be happy (what a surprise ).

I'd rather be happy and single than unhappy and married. I'd also rather be happy and married than unhappy and single.

Now would I rather be happy and married or happy and single? Well that doesn't matter does it if either way you are happy? The question becomes irrelevant.

I enjoy being married but I sure know people who don't and would be better off single. It all depends on what you have experienced in your life.

What Kearie said.

When I was married, everything was about him. If he needed help with a project, I was expected to drop whatever I was doing at a moment's notice and help him. (This included being late taking my son to his cousin's birthday party because my then-husband was baking a cake and didn't have all the ingredients, so I had to rush to the store and buy stuff for him.) If he was sick, I was expected to be sympathetic and wait on him hand and foot. (When I was sick, I was on my own. His idea of caring for me was sitting in front of the TV and telling me later that if I had let him know I needed something, he would have brought it to me - only he couldn't hear me because the TV was on, and I was too sick to yell!) If he said something that hurt my feelings, I was being too sensitive; if I said something that hurt his feelings, I was being a . When I was sexually harassed by our pastor and I went into a mild depression over it, I got screamed at for not understanding what it felt like to have your wife treated this way.

Now I can eat what I want, when I want, if I want. I don't have to take care of anyone unless I choose to. I can have a dog and a bird, or any other pets that I want, and my dog can live in my house and sleep on my bed. I can watch what I want on TV, or I can turn the TV off if I want quiet. (He always had the TV on - in fact, he walked in the door one time, turned the TV on, and then went outside to mow the lawn!)

My sister saw me a few days after I left my husband, and she told me that she had never seen me so happy in my life (and since she's older than me, she's known me my entire life!). I have never regretted that decision, even for a second. I'm struggling more financially now, but I would rather be poor than be in an unhappy relationship with everything money can buy.

I can honestly say that, even though I thought I was happy in my marriage for most of it, I'm much happier and more at peace with myself now.
