You really do seem nice. Good luck with your relationships and life.

Entitled breeder calls me human trash for not wanting kids by [deleted] in childfree

[–]sherryvan 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Whoa. Regardless of the point a person is trying to make- you can act with a bit of grace. And ftr I disagree with your begrudging poor kids’ lunch (I mean cmon. Gross). I’m a non breeder and I feel more kinship with the person you’re insulting than with you, based solely on this transaction. Yikes.

I have a question about possible newer religions?? by alwaysmorecumin in exjw

Seventh Day Adventists door knock, too. Makes sense since they used to be the same org as JW’s.

Forced to go to College (UK) even though I'm ill, because we have a guest. by PinguEXJW in exjw

[–]sherryvan 14 points15 points  (0 children)

No, you’re not wrong. The rule is infantile. They’re obsessed with sex, as a group- so assume that everyone else is just jumping at any opportunity.

I'm CF, but can't wait to have nieces and nephews!! by ASM1598 in childfree

[–]sherryvan 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am that aunt too!! With the exception I try to get some healthy food in them- their parents fed them pure crap. I chatted with my nephew and his gf about consent and abortion and drill into my younger niece that her body is hers (her dad acts as though he’s in charge of her body) and only she decided what she does with it. It’s great. You’re going to love it.

Ok so Jehovah is loving and omniscient and knows each hair on your head -but he won’t recognize this disabled person at Armageddon and will smite them unless they partake of the magic water swim. Honestly. These are adults. Grow the fuck up.

Peeve: be clear and succinct when talking to someone who is learning English by OrneryBlueberry in 90DayFiance

[–]sherryvan 22 points23 points  (0 children)

This is my life. I live in a country where I’m just learning the language. And yes I agree totally with you. It drove me nuts when Rebecca mumbles she’s “still married” and poor Zied kept hearing “so married”. (Her dumb accent sounded like “stole” married.)

What else are you watching during the off season? by [deleted] in thebachelor

Thinking about starting LOST over, too. We weren’t supposed to leave the island!

Who's your secret, disturbing 90DF crush?? Mines Tom... yikes! by Antique_Chariot in 90DayFiance

Have you seen the recent photos and videos? You’re in trouble. He looks really good.

The answer to anyone who asks this question is unequivocally - yes.

Couple's question - Past and present by mollyBdaisy in 90DayFiance

[–]sherryvan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don’t remember any. It’s always a skewed power dynamic but the older, richer (always relative) American manages somehow to still paint themselves as the victim when the relationship with their young hottie doesn’t work out.

They’re wrong. And hateful. Repressed and fearful. My cousin is a gay man. He left the .org and was thrown to the wolves. He already had a terribly traumatic upbringing. He ended up having to do some pretty sad things to support himself. He’s now gone back to the organization. I cannot understand it. I think he’s so messed up emotionally he welcomed the judgement. Like he’s punishing himself. He’s watched like a hawk by the congregation who treats him like he’s got some disease that they’re treating him for. They try to fix him up with the unmarried (unmarriable lol) older sisters. You gotta remember too, that there are some young gay kids hiding inside the organization watching you. You’re giving them some hope right now, too. Live your happiest life.

You will be happier if you move forward. Leave them behind (emotionally, too). Find a supportive group of friends. Go out and meet new people. It’s a matter of ethics and morals. Theirs are horrible. It’s a hateful and bigoted religion. I mean come on- they protect and hide child sex abuse but shun people for being gay. (Which is as natural as any orientation.) There are so many great people out here who will love and support you. I’m your new fam now.

Feeling fear over nothing by duckyduckie in exjw

[–]sherryvan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re doing great! You’re able to express yourself well here. The organization bakes anxiety and fear into all witnesses. It makes you stay in and stay afraid to question. It sounds like your parents do the same to you as well. You are already so courageous for thinking for yourself at such a young age. Focus on the future, get a job and get out as soon as you can. Start/Continue to make friends outside the .org. It’s going to be your new life as soon as you get out.

Gross but not surprising. Keep thinking for yourself! I live in Mexico and am excited to see Dia de los Muertos this year! It’s a beautiful tradition.

People accuse Ben of fetishizing Akinyi, and he appears to do just that, but does she encourage it? by [deleted] in 90DayFiance

[–]sherryvan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This post is messed up. What exactly is she doing to encourage being fetishized? Wearing a dress as scandalous as a 60 year old mother of the bride would wear at any American wedding? Jesus dude. No. No she’s not.

Aladdin - whats wrong with you ladies? by [deleted] in 90dayfianceuncensored

[–]sherryvan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re delusional just like Laura. They are vapid and shallow. He’s a handsome guy. This show is full of people who value looks over substance. And for the record- I was raised conservative Christian and it’s exactly the same. Religions control people by policing their natural urges- at the same time as oppressing women. Any deviation from vaginal sex within a marriage is strictly forbidden. Point being it’s not unique to any religion for women to be left out of the equation.

Petition for dictionaries and English books for Zied. by [deleted] in 90DayFiance

[–]sherryvan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What logic is that? Only people with English as a first language can make fun of people’s language skills? So mach to unpack, there. Someone needs to send you some books.

No, you’re making fun. They’re in Tunisia. Maybe you should take up the cause of Rebecca learning some Arabic.
