I'm pretty sure that was Dr. Oz.

If anyone can find a post of me "ragging on Dr. Phil", I'll apologise.

Thanks Tig! I really don't care much either way. He's a loon. He made it to the big time through Oprah Winfrey. So how ya doing Tig?

I think Dr. Oz is a loon, too.

I have to agree there.

weltschmerz · Guru

I can't stand Dr. Oz. From hawking useless nutritional supplements to the advice I heard him give.
A woman was complaining about her husband's smoking and asking how she can get him to stop.
Dr. Oz said to stop sleeping with him until he quits. Worst. Advice. Ever.
It will make him run into the arms of another woman. Someone who WILL sleep with him.
You don't use sex to manipulate people. Idiot.

FNW · Guru

OH, I know. I'm so sick of his supplement push and crazy nutritional advice. If we ate everything he says we need to eat, we'd all be over 400lbs. It's like that "eat this, not that" website. Just be sensible.

Dr. Oz pisses me smooth off. Fear mongering quack.
Husband's grandmother called me in a panic one day to tell me not to give Bunny apple juice because Oz says it contains arsenic. hmm

i had to explain that pretty much everything contains trace amounts of arsenic because it is naturally occurring.

Also, I really wish all y'all would quit being such dicks. I know my saying this won't change things, but I just thought y'all should know that you are all being ****ty.

That was not asked of you. And I'm QUITE certain you know damn well ohfour doesn't want you answering for Tig when she asks her a question.

WYSIWYG · Guru

How about 'thanks for the advice. Did you see the latest episode of Hell's Kitchen" and move on. Grown ups don't have to explain their lives to other grown ups.

I agree with this.

Ether that or turn their argument against them with "You need the therapist, not me. You are the one hung up on sex, sex, sex, sex."

WYSIWYG · Guru

The "perfect amount" of sex for any one person is only perfect for that person. That applies to every person alive. Perfect for one person might be "none", and that's perfectly alright. Perfect for the next person might be "once a week". And for the next person, perfect might be "every day and twice on Saturdays". Both of those are perfectly alright as well.

Our creator gave us each a threshold of what we consider perfect for ourselves in all things, but that's just it, it's personal and individual, just as each of us are.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

Yeah - I'm not sure this ever needs to be a discussion. Just don't discuss it. When people bug you about "finding someone", just tell them you are happy being single, and change the subject. This person doesn't want a SO, they want a BFF.

Yes, I know. She has hardly posted at all since Christmas.

We don't need YOU to speak for her. We are quite capable of communicating with her ourselves.

Then butt out. You brought yourself into this. If you feel its getting old, then stay out of things that have nothing to do with you.

Oh, and since you just cant stop, how do you know how Tig is doing???

He's always been different. But I honestly don't know what to make of it. Like, why the big Facebook announcement? Date or don't date anybody you so choose?

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

"Came out"?

So now NOT having sex is something to "come out" about?

And it use to be considered a good thing for someone Unmarried to not have sex.

It was called virture.

Lawyerlady · On the bright side...... Christmas is coming! (Mod)

Quite frankly, I get tired of hearing about people's sex lives. WHY someone has to constantly announce their sexuality is beyond me.

lilyofcourse · My spirit animal is a pink flamingo.

Me too.

Of course I didn't realize not having sex was a sexuality.

Bonny22Pye · Guru

actually, just re-read his post. He's identifying as non gender or non binary...still confusing, still don't really care what your sexual preferences are.
I'm not going to announce on FB what DH and I are up too, so I just don't get it.
We live in California so he can marry anyone he wants regardless of what gender they identify as. I guess it could become problematic if he wanted people to use a non gender pro-noun.

Yeah. Just like I have two arms.

It's just part of me.

No need to turn it into a "lifestyle" or a "sexuality".

Perhaps we should announce everything publicly.

Seems everything is a lifestyle now.

Some things ARE lifestyles.

If it's important to a person to announce it, why does it bother you?

I don't know. Why does someone posting obituaries bother you?

Let me give you an example. I was watching Chopped and there were 4 contestants and they went back into the kitchen discussing who would get chopped. Three of them talked about the food and what they did well and what mistakes they made. The 4th one? All he said was "never underestimate a gay man in an apron!" What the HELL does his being gay have to do with anything? I DON'T want to hear it. I don't NEED to hear it. It's none of my business and it has NOTHING to do with how well you prepared that dish.

And "never underestimate a straight man in an apron!" would have been funny?

Lady Gaga Snerd · Guru

And they make these kinds of "jokes" all the time. They have to tell u they are gay every 30 sec. Ok we get it.

Tangerine · Guru

I had a friend who would introduce herself, "Hi, I'm Jane. I'm a lesbian."
She was profoundly insecure and felt that was the only way to make herself seem interesting.
She stopped doing that eventually, which was great because she was a nice person with many good qualities.

When other people feel the need to constantly mention their sexuality, it makes me think that they are insecure.

FNW · Guru

Me, too, tang. That's exactly what I was thinking.
