Thats truly sad, her family will definitely be in our prayers ..

"the myth that most lesbians are butch and most gay men are effeminate is dated and ignorant." I disagree with this too, I know too many who do not fit into the roles given by society....

I understand what you are saying now....but to me they are just doing what the rest of us are doing when we act upon our weaknesses..I dont think god would intentionally state in the bible not to do something, and then create gays, les, trans and say... sorry folks...deal with it. I think we are all born with weaknesses, and its up to us on weather we act upon them...its all about choice....

Every member doesnt need a calling, but they may have one :) With this said, if you feel like you need one to help strengthen your testimony, you can always tell your bishop im sure he will be grateful to help you out :)

Ok...I'm not gonna sugar coat this, because I just delt with this awhile back with my teen....Talk to the stake pres, get it taken care of....And STOP making excuses for yourself.... Your asking WHY ? Once you have an addiction its not easily gotten rid of, you dont wanna keep making light of it and then go on a mission....get married , have kids and find its progressed through the years....Do yourself & your future wife a favor....Get help, get it taken care of....Serve a mission with honor, then marry the girl of your dreams with the knowledge you can keep the sacred covients you both have made, and you can stay faith to her.... Im saying this because I work with people allot that have addictions to porn, it has destroyed there lives, there families and there self esteem....YOU are worth more than that.....SEE.....The stake pres.....:)

Happy Birthday :)

The ones that cannot tell which genetics they are....Are Hermaphrodites....NOT Transgendered....Transgendered are born male/female and choose to be the opposite sex, they then get a sex change and other procedures from there to create what they choose to be.....A Hermaphrodite is born with both, and it’s very hard to tell which gender they should be. Hermaphrodite is a medical condition caused by mix croms......Where Transgendered disorder is a choice....that an individual makes on their own NOT made by god. You need to make sure you are correctly explaining which is which....at this point you are inaccurate.... Policy of the church will not change, just like the scriptures have not changed on this subject, I find it funny how society likes to manipulate the scriptures as well as change them to fit their needs, rather than living god’s will. The gospel will never conform to people....There are laws and covenants, we cannot just go rewriting them because I want to wear a blue hat today, be gay today, drink a beer today....We live the laws as they are written, because they are written for a reason. May I ask where you are from bytebear ? and are you lds ?

You are talking about a Hermaphrodite, that is not the same as transgendered. Transgendered are born male or female, yet choose to be the opposite sex....not born female & male and someone else chooses for them. Transgendered normally under go a sexual change & physical change , along with voice therapy and other procedures. This does not follow along with the guidelines of the church , as does someone who's born a hermaphrodite, and the parents or DR mistakenly pick the wrong sex....This is a choice.

Morningstar , you hit it right on the nail :) Every wife has been here atleast one, weather its an old girlfriend or an exwife....and it truly can take a toll on your eart, your feelings twards dear hubby, and your spirituality. Your relationship should never compare to thiers. Honestly, if the ring means so much....talk to him about it, pick one out and renew your vows :) :winks: and make a wedding night you both remember...... Second marriages are hard enough, but when the advisary's influences our thoughts, talk about a doward spiral, and I know...Ive been there :) Work on positive things that can boost, enhance, and creatively make your marriage more romantic and stronger each year....:) You've had him for 30 years...Thats awesome !, He must think your one pretty amazing woman.....:) I'm sure if you ask him to list some of your amazing qualities, you would be shocked at how much he truly does love and appreciate you, beyond what he ever loved his first wife , just a thought...:) We as wives tend to over think and look into things way to much, sometimes letting go of negitive self talk...helps reinforce the positive things we knew all along...hugs...:) I hope things are doing better :)

Thats awesome, thanks for sharing.....

Congrats Heather, thats awesome....I havent been on in forever, I gess we have a season in ur lives for everything :) even the board lol...miss ya

Sounds like he needs an addiction recovery class ....It might help repair the damage

I have a 13 yr old, she wears lip gloss. I let her know early on, that you are 16 for driving a car, and 16 when you wear make up. Allot of mothers will disagree with this, but my thoughts are this. I did not raise my daughter at 13 to look 16, and 16 to look 21, and so on....My daughter is a young woman, and its more important she stay a young virtues woman and a good role model, than popular top model at 13. Funny thing is, she ended up popular, and a good role model for several of the girls who look up to her. Who could ask for more :)

They ask friends family etc.. to write spiritual and encouraging letters...in a friend like manner, not discussing dating.. but just support, and encouragement :)
