Thank you very much Mister BC for the compliment. I really appreciate you saying this about me, but I have a little secret to share with ya. For my age, I'm really quite pretty in real life you know....(ah-hem, if I do say so meself and especially since I wear my hair differently than I used to wear it and put on a bit of make-up for enhancement.). I'm just hiding it behind a plain face here so that you "guys" don't fall in love with me because I'm so beautiful! I want you to connect with me on the level of heart, 'cause that's truly where us "ladies" beauty lies... not in appearance.... But then, I realize the male species on this planet views looks very importantly when it comes to mating. Darn it! Wouldn't it be a different world if you-all had less testosterone running through your veins? I think it might be a fascinating thing to experiment with. Let's create the next world without sex! All who votes yes, raise their.... Do you want it to be a foot this time or will a big toe work? How's those darling little boys doing BC? Is Corbyn crawling yet? Jane So, men are the problem PlainJane? That sure seems biased, unobjective, prejudiced and inflammatory. Not that I want to defend us................

withopeneyes, In the following quote you seem to be describing what you don't like about yourself: "I wish I could look at myself that way, but when I look in the mirror, I see a too-long nose, a face that takes on Native American structure, and well, a body that could use a few more inches in the legs. I dont know why I pick myself apart... because that's not how I look at other people." My question is: what's wrong with " a face that takes on Native American structure"? It sounds very prejudist against the Native American looks. Are you serious? I AM part Native American. Why would I be prejudist against my own people? So, when my best friend, who is a Jew, says she hates her Jewish nose, is she being prejudist?

It's a good thing you aren't defensive Mister Simple because neither am I. I happen to have a husband, two sons, one grandson and another one on the way... you would hardly call me "biased, unobjective, prejudiced and inflammatory." if you knew me in person....
So please don't take my words seriously, because they are not intended that way. And btw, why have I always thought Simple was a woman? Wo! I learn something new every day.... Jane

So, when my best friend, who is a Jew, says she hates her Jewish nose, is she being prejudist? Nope. She is being inaccurate. Her facial features are not due to her religious beliefs. Her "Jewish" nose is very much like the noses of all of the people in her gene pool, whether they are Jewish, Muslim, or just the odd atheist Caucasoid!

Jane Bawk, Simple is a pretty bird . I was kiddin around too. I am glad to be what I am, I walked (clung too) with Jesus through a storm, I was beyond hope and he saved me. Our souls don't function by gender, as far as I could tell. That is something that is beyond the flesh though. My flesh is 100% all male..........

Hi Plainjane,
Good to hear from you again. No Corbyn isn't crawling yet but is a very active roller and can quite adequately get from one end of the room to the other by this means of motivation. Both my little men are doing really great, they are truly the apple of my eye. Declan is now at preschool and loving it, I think he is going to be a musician, he loves Amici and other pop opera groups, also into dire straites. sits with his guitar strumming away and humming to them.
I knew you were beautiful, it comes through in your conversation.
Love and [shadow=red,left,300]Regards BC[/shadow]
