Living in another person's skin

I started working on the book that I am ghostwriting this week. I am writing the memoirs of a woman from Brazil in the late 1970's...about her life, about the challenges she faced, about her fight for equality and rights as a Brazilian woman and all that she had to give up to have the kind of life...

Terri's Legacy

Now that Terry Shivo has passed from this life, no matter how we feel about it personally, I think that we owe it to her memory not to turn her death and the firestorm surrounding it into a political and theological battleground. It is easy to let situations like this divide us as a nation. But... Sign in to see full entry.

Men and the art of the Fart

Men and women are not equal. There are many things that we women can do that men are completely clueless about. But this is not the forum to pat ourselves on the back. No, today's discussion has to do with the one thing that men have always been more accomplished at that no matter how we try we will... Sign in to see full entry.

Since when did I lose my right to control my reproductive health?

I was watching CNN last night and I heard something that floored me. Pharmacists are refusing to fill birth control prescriptions on the basis of THIER religious and moral beliefs. Who the hell died and gave these assholes the right to deny a woman birth control pills??? This is not the 1920's and... Sign in to see full entry.

What I know about Self Esteem

Since I started this blog and started talking about what it is like to be a fat woman and to be a disabled woman, I have had several people comment to me that they had low self esteem and wished they could see their situation in the way that I saw mine.

Why I tend to avoid my very dysfunctional family

I went to visit my mom at the nursing home Sunday. With illnesses, lack of money and being without a car for a month, I had not been to see her since mid January. I went late in the afternoon hoping that it would just be Mike and Mom and me. I love my mother despite the hell she and I put one... Sign in to see full entry.

However, there are "rules" that you can follow at your discretion that will keep you dressed stylishly. These are my rules. If you have rules you would like to share, please do. 1. Do not...

What is sexy?

The longer I live the more the answer to this question changes. I have decided after 40 years here, that sexy has nothing to do with sex. It has to do with everything but sex. When I was 16, I thought Kenny Rogers was sexy. But I was 16 and I did not know shit about sex except that most guys didn't... Sign in to see full entry.

My thoughts on the situation in Florida

I normally stay away from politics and matters of the day in my blogs. I tend to have opinions outside of the "norm" and don't crave abuse. That being said I feel like I have to say something abou the Terry Shivo case. My heart hurts for both Terry's family and her husband.I completely understand... Sign in to see full entry.

What I know about being a beautiful fat woman

Well, I have been a beautiful fat woman for forty years so this post has the potential to be lengthy. I know that, no matter what kind of woman a man says he likes, no man can resist soft skin, lots of cleavage and plenty to hold onto. This gets really strange if you outweigh your lover by more than... Sign in to see full entry.
