[QUOTE]The one at the top with all the words is REALLY hard to read and I don't actually get it... she's saying the board makes her depressed which means that she wants to have a baby cause it'll fix her relationship with her husband? Or something? <strong>I don't understand</strong> the correlation between those two items.

I figure I might put one up occasionally, if it's something helpful, but not a bunch of You're Wrong - no YOU'RE WRONG - YOU SUCKKKKKKKKKKKKKK!!!!!!!!

This is why we can't have nice things.

I'll hop on board the "secret reponses to 'secrets' are lame" train.

ricksang · May 2010

Yeah the occasional one would be cool. I think people on the nest and bump were complaining about their PSs too.

The bumpie ones make me feel like everyone on that site is equal parts insane and pathetic. Its like a festival of annoying high school girls trying to out cool each other.

"You're soooo jealous you're not me"

"No, YOURE sooo jealous you're not ME"

OMG STFU. No one wins here because you're both f*cking losers.

Nebb · May 2010

the nest and bump ones scare me, but atleast its an easy way to collect the crazy it one spot so I dont have to look at a billion posts to see it all.

agk0125 · May 2010

As usual I'm late to the party, but OH SNAP is right!

eastunder1 · May 2010

I think I may be confusing the bump and the nest. Either way though, hai batsh*t.

Nebb · May 2010

The bump one has updated a lot today, the nest one hardly at all... so that only leads me to believe the pregnancy hormones must make the nesties extra crazy and thats why theyre on the bump.

jessjo04 · May 2010

I took an unofficial poll of my husband and our guy friend, who both say as men, they would rather be circumcised. Guess thats one area of parenting in which I would give DH the lead.

[QUOTE]Just got done browsing BPS. What the fuuck is wrong with those people? The one about her not minding if her husband dies in Afghanistan because he treats her like shiit and the insurance money would be nice pissed me the fuuck off. ETA: Ah, he cheated and treated her like crap. Still, who wishes death to someone they have or used to have feelings for?
Posted by Champagne Supernova[/QUOTE]

Exactly! If you hate your husband enough that you hope he dies, you probably need a divorce.

T says the same. His cousin even got circumcised at 16.

I am glad that you agree with the KPS Queen now and have seen that <em>obviously </em>the secrets have been sucking lately...

I keed, I keed :)

JessAndTrav · May 2010

On the topic of secrets...

Arb, serious props to you for not just posting the responses. Those really bore me and frustrate me all at the same time. It's just such a childish things to do.

Thanks for keeping KPS good.

On the topic of circumcision...

H says that he's glad that he was circumsized as a baby and wants to do that for any boys that we may have. Clearly, he wasn't traumatized. I've actually never known a guy that was like, "OMG, I REMEMBER THAT. MY PARENTS ARE SUCH BITCHES."

I think it's up to the parents, and really...who cares?

nda_roxybabe · May 2010

From what I know all the guys I know are glad they're circumcised. I thought it was the more standard choice.

jessjo04 · May 2010

I think that the pain a baby feels is preferrable to growing up feeling different in the personal parts.

kikipania · May 2010

There really is no reason to circumcise, other than it's a social preference Americans and Australians seem to dig (religious issues aside). The health thing is crap, as a baby boy's penis doesn't even retract until about 2 and even then it's really not that hard to clean. I think most people circumcise because it's what they're used to and what they consider normal. I won't be circumcising my boys.

<div>This. </div><div>
</div><div>I think the reason people get so pissy about it is that if you do any background on it, you'll find that doctors generally say there are no benefits, but there are minimal risks (infection/whatever) to actually doing it. I've also read that only about half of boys in the US get circumcised now, so it isn't weird to not do it anymore. I think the assumption is that if you looked in to it, you wouldn't do it, thus the parents that do it aren't doing any background before making a decision. </div><div>

Question: what church is this that wouldn't marry somebody because of fertility issues? Seriously??

[QUOTE]Question: what church is this that wouldn't marry somebody because of fertility issues? Seriously??
Posted by quotequeen[/QUOTE]

I think the poster is talking about the Catholic church... One of the precepts of Catholic marriage is being open to children. Unfortunately, the KPS poster seems to be confusing the issue.

The church says a marriage must be open to receiving life. So if you decided to make yourself permanently infertile on purpose, that could be grounds for no church wedding. Because you decided on your own to never be open to receiving life.

Just because a person may or may not be infertile is not grounds for no church wedding. Who's to say that she'll never become pregnant? And who's to say that a "fertile" woman will ever become pregnant? The important issue is that the couple be open to receiving life.

Dear KPS poster - You most certainly can have a church wedding. Please let this be the least of your worries. Sorry for your news :(
