It is easier to reply without quoting on my cell because for some reason the mobile version of the knot gets indigestion over boxes. On the PC, easy to either copy and paste or quote.

For some reason the mobile won't go into the text to correct spelling errors either, just keeps popping to the bottom a lot, and I do not know why.

As for similar logos I never noticed . I have used the dancing polar bear, a cultural icon of Greenland, to reflect my being half Inuit. And I have used it on the knot since about 2008. Before that my Avatar was a girl troll, since I have pointed ears, and the other half of my heritage is Saami (Lapp).
I looked, velvet uses a bunny. But also blue and white.

See how it messes up quotes, putting my words under the other poster so you cannot tell where one stops and the other starts?

That's a common mobile issue, it's not just you @WhatawaySBNy! Just type "- - - -" in between, that's what I do!

I noticed that on some posts without boxes, and started doing asterisk or dash marks. I wondered if it was just my mobile.

We have sex about once a week and I completely agree with @larrygaga‌ about comparing yourself to other couples. Prior to our son we would have sex about three plus times a week. After our son was born I would constantly compare our decreased sex life of one time a week to other couples and it really upset me. After I stopped comparing ourselves to others, the sex improved immensely.

As for the well endowed FI issue (he's 8.5"), I suggest tons of foreplay and lube.

The summer after grade 11, I wanted to go camping with my friends (1 other girl, 3 guys).  My parents eventually let me go, but my Dad's first question when I asked permission was "So I suppose you'll be needing birth control??"  I laughed so hard I almost fell off the couch and told him that these were just my guy friends and I had no interest in sleeping with any of them (I really didn't, we were just good friends).  

My Dad then said that he thought this was the reason why kids my age wanted to get away for the weekend.  I quickly enlightened him that it would be much easier to skip an afternoon of school and go to someone's house if I really wanted to.  He also bought condoms for my brother when he was about the same age.  I'm thinking my Dad got around a bit before he got married and just assumed all kids would.  I'm sure his work with at risk teens didn't help this notion either.  

I was a bit surprised at the time though that he was totally ok with this so long as I wouldn't get pregnant.

Such a sensible approach.

A friend, Debbie's mother went on the pill for medical reasons not related to conception but to menopause. She told her three daughters at the dinner table they should not take it as a sign it was okay to take birth control, because it would lead to. Sin blah blah. She said she had made an agreement with the doctor long ago, and he would call her if they ever even asked about it. Friend was youngest at 17 and thought yikes. Then her oldest sister at 21 said, well that's okay Mom, neither my Dr. or Lynne's is a rat, so Debbie can go through us when she is ready to go on the pill too. Her mother choked on her chicken. Parents who are outrageously repressive just teach their children not to tell the truth.

Pinkrevenge - you said "Have you guys heard of these balls you put in your cooch?! Like in 50 shades?!"

Ben wa balls have only existed for hundreds to thousands of years and aren't even that interesting in terms of sexual toys, but no, this is a new concept for me. Please go on"

Tell me if you have figured it out:

Why do they make them in so many colors?

This thread inspired me to pounce on FI the last 2 nights and probably tonight too, lol.

Something totally dorky just occurred to me.

In our old house, the couch was in the center of the living room, and usually we sat on it together.

Now, the chaise is in the center, and it's hard for two people to sit on, so we don't cuddle up while watching TV/ playing video games/ surfing the net as much as we used to.

Looks like I'm rearranging the living room tomorrow!

****************
One of the few modern design pieces of furniture I think divinely inspired is the small couch where each side can lean back with a foot rest popping up but no arm between them.
Guys and watching tv stretched out in their recliners.
Then FI had little furniture for the living room when we moved in together except two really nice all leather separate recliners. Too deep for my shorter legs, great for six foot plus men. Lonely me on the couch.
Many months later we visited people who had the double cuddle conducive couch or recliners. Fi pointed it out, said we should get one, and when I said why he gave me that. Well, DUH? Look. Until I got it.

I could look at your room or mine and never see the need for changing the furniture. I hope your SO noticed!

We're higher than 3-4...maybe 5-6?  We go for a few days at a time, and then take a break for a day, then go at it again.  J's drive is higher than mine, but he knows he's allowed to get me in the mood whenever he wants.  We haven't had penetrative sex with me on my period yet - he's still a bit squicked out by that

I wasn't a virgin when we got married, but he was - and hoo boy, let me tell you.  He's making up for lost time for quantity AND quality.  He was, however, under the impression that once you get married you just have sex all the time, as per all his married friends who also waited until they got married.  I let him know that his buddies don't get to decide our sex life.

Guy culture still amazes you. A bunch of guys talk, most of the younger ones esp are always getting some. Go out to where the women are talking, and the wives and girlfriends or the same guys talking will tell a different story .

Having a same age brother we used to compare notes an crack up about the differences.
It has amazed me for years, single and now married, especially when the guys are bragging over a game of cards or something and I am the invisible serving woman, then out in the kitchen one girlfriend is talking about how little interest boyfriend has in doing anything but talk about sex, and another is asking if anyone thinks she should ask her hubby to go to a doctor to see about Viagra because they want to a lot, but he only can follow through once every couple months. Male pride, but it seems until they get older a lot of guys actually believe what their male friends say.

What the hell are you talking about? I think you watch too many sitcoms/movies, because I don't know anyone like this. 

If anything, the woman in my friends group talk much more openly about things then the men. 

I'm sorry but the bolded is fucking weird as hell.

...I think the "comparing notes" part is the bothersome thing. I have a brother and two sisters, the older two are both close to my age, and there's no way in hell I'd "compare notes" with them about anything except maybe algebra.

Since my brother and I are the same age and will talk about anything like best friends do, and often together we know both sides of a couple, we do talk.
Not what a friend said in confidence.

But definitely when a group of more truth telling women are talking at the kitchen table about relationships and marital ups and downs, And he has been in the other room where the guys at the table are broadcasting to the group


And. Kaj tells me, married guys are so lucky. Bill and Stanley spend long weekends endlessly doing it with their wives, can't get enough of it,

And I think, Bill's wife just said it has been months and she is tired of 3 times a year and him not going to the DR. Sue says she is filing for divorce, Stan won't adopt and they won't get pregnant if they never have sex.

And I tell Kaj, don't believe everything you hear, Bill and Stan's marriages are barely hanging on, but bragging is guy culture, they just keep their troubles buried.

If that kind of confidence between brother and sister would bother you, then I guess we are just different. We don't have sex with each other, but talking about life including sexuality has always been okay in our family, parents and kids, brothers and sisters, and the wide network of extended family too.

NONE of this is stuff I would talk to my brother about. At all. None of it is stuff that I'd talk to anyone about, since it's not my right to talk about other people and the things they tell me in confidence. 

That's not "talking about life including sexuality" that's passing on gossip that was told to you in confidence. And if I were one of your "friends" and found out your brother (who is friends with my husband) knew every intimate detail I'd told you, I'd be sure I never spoke to you in confidence again.

"If anything, the woman in my friends group talk much more openly about things then the men" - huskypuppy14

That is pretty much what I am saying. The women talk more openly, good and bad, and are not afraid to ask for or offer help. The guys talk about sex as much or more than we do, but there is much more posturing, impress the other guys. He will leave an impression that sex is always great and non-stop.

Even if he is frustrated that wife and his work schedules are leaving no time for love, or trying to conceive on a schedule bugs him, he won't say being asked to save it for three days then do it then Save three day then do it bothers him,

and he just wants to make love with his wife when they feel like it.
Instead he says, ever since my wife decided it is baby time, we have been in sex heaven. She wants it all the time, and I can't get enough. You guys need to get the hell out of grad school, and get to work baby making like us.

Women talk truth, guys talk a lot.

It's awesome how we're generalizing all men and women based just on the men and women you know.

This is fantastic! I bet all those little ladies are good cooks and those silly men can't work vacuum cleaners. Am I right?! Lol, sexist generalizations are awesome.

They (meaning your specific friends, not all women) talk more openly because they TRUST YOU not to go run and tell your BROTHER and god knows who else what they told you in confidence. Clearly that was a mistake.
