Trying to Get Pregnant
UO

Re: UO
I took my boys when they were 9 and 4 and it was miserable!!!! My oldest had fun and my youngest hated it. Lines are to freaking long ..... I just don't get it!!!
I went when I was 7 and LOVED it. I'd suck it up if I have another child and it wants to go but I'd definitely go during an off season maybe during mardi gras.
TTC since August 2011, Me = 40, DH = 38
Unexplained IF. Tried Clomid for 3 cycles. All BFNs. BFP 1/6/13. Chemical pregnancy.
Moving on to IVF#1. ER 11/26/13, 16 eggs retreived, 12 mature and all fertilized. 2 blasts transferred on 12/1. All other embies arrested so nothing left to freeze. Beta 12/10 = BFN. IVF #2 March 2014. BFP!!! TEAM BLUE!!!
I went when I was 5 and I hated it. It was hot, everything was expensive so my mom wouldn't let me have anything, the lines were long, and I didn't enjoy it. My aunt told me that the characters and princesses were regular people who probably just wanted to go home and take off all that crap after hugging kids in the 110 degree heat all day. So, I kept begging my mom to buy them icees so they could cool off and when they did try to hug me I told them, "That's okay, I know you're hot and just want to go home."
DH had a conference there last year so I went with him. OMG, that place is expensive. I did enjoy the spa, I would rather take the money and go to Europe than wander around Orlando.
My MIL loves WDW and she is thrilled that I'm okay with her taking any future children there without me.
April 2013: Femara + Trigger + IUI = ???
It doesn't bother him though. He calls me spoiled because I grew up four hours away from Orlando and had been to Disney at least eight times before I went to college.
EDITED FOR CLARIFICATION: I'm not against traditional feminism. I dislike the new brand of radical, aggressive, angry feminism that says women are entitled to be hateful to people who don't see them exactly as (or better than) they see themselves. The women who tweet hateful comments to male politicians who don't support their agenda, rather than having rational conversations. The ones who say entire political parties are evil and stupid because they don't agree with every perceived "right." I'm against anger and hate and rudeness hidden behind the feminism label. Any label, for that matter. Goes for all radical, angry, aggressive "-ism."
Also, modesty isn't just about dress. And note that I said I don't appreciate skanky (in-your-face oversexualized and/or promiscuous) women or men.

Eta: After reading more comments, I should add that I have no problem with girls playing with make up. I just don't think they should leave the house with makeup on until they're older.
THIS. When I was a little girl even passing by VS made me uncomfortable. I was in there the other day to get a new bra and saw tons of girls in the 13 and under range there with moms buying from the Pink line. I know that is a younger line but preteens?!
My son is 14. The girls in his class, I'm friends with all their moms, and they all shop at vs. I shop there myself because I love their underwear and cotton sleep shirts. I do have other lingerie that i don't wear in front if my son. If I had a daughter I'd let her shop there but I'd be selective on what she was able to buy. They sell so much more that just lingerie.
ETA: I don't think the pink line is so risqué .... Some of it is just sleep pants and shorts with tanks.

If you are a woman and you are an 'anti-feminist', then you obviously have no fucking idea what feminism is. THAT is shameful.

TTC since March 2013. BFP 4/13/13, blighted ovum discovered 6/6/13, m/c 6/8/13.
BFP 11/10/13, EDD 7/25/13 - stick little owlet!
My boys wear boxers and they like different ones, not just a pack of plaid Hanes. My oldest lives on his own and supports himself but I still pick up clothes for him when I see something on sale. I saw some boxers once that had lips all over them that said kiss me. I just couldn't do it.
Also, Victoria's Secret is a lingerie store. Young women wear bras and underwear. What's wrong with girls needing to go get bras and underwear? They have plenty of other sleepwear in there too. It's not all thongs and garter belts.
You can find similar patterned lingerie at all other stores in the mall. My DD is 12 and has tons of underwear and training bras that are patterned and neon and striped and polka dotted, and I can assure you, she doesn't look skanky in them. Her underwear came in a package from Walmart.
What is being coorelated here? Girls who shop at VS are all slutty slut slut whores? Gimme a break. If you want to see hideous skanky undergarments, go to the Joe Boxer section at Kmart. Now that shit is trashy.

Look, I see people dressed in over the top, revealing outfits, and I think that they have questionable fashion choices. And usually I wonder how on earth they're comfortable in that get up. However, I don't think that makes them "skanky." I think disrespecting yourself makes you skanky, but if you enjoy putting on a hot outfit, strutting your stuff, and gettin' yo' freak on, and the next morning you can look yourself in the mirror, appreciate all of your choices and be a productive citizen then more power to you honey!

Me too..
I think I am guilty of all these UOs..except the kid stuff.
Also, Disney World is the HAPPIEST PLACE ON EARTH!
For realz
I see nothing wrong with eating them. I just had the best egg white, Canadian bacon, 2% cheese on a English muffin and enjoyed every minute of it!!!!
I think those diets where you give up carbs or any particular food group is just wrong!
I think the problem is people don't exercise .... It's not the carbs!
Modesty isn't just about the way a person dresses. One thing that earns a woman the "slut" label is in-your-face sexuality and promiscuity. Promiscuity =/= monogamy. Women who set out to titillate and turn men on = meh. I'm not into that. But to each her own. That's the nice thing about opinions. Everybody's entitled to one.

Did you ever see Angels in the Outfield? Maybe you can't get the picture of him being a little boy out of your mind? It's still weird for me. I think he's cute though. lol

Well that's my supper! Lol
Seriously I was thinking about my English muffin. Maybe my breakfast wasn't a good example. I just know people that are on these crazy diets that would dare eat a freaking English muffin much less a bowl of pasta. I eat bread everyday of some sort and am proud of it. I will even eat white bread sometimes!!
When 16 years old boys, who know nothing and are in the stage of learning everything that has to be about women, think it's ok to take advantage of a girl because "she was clearly asking for it", you know that as a society we have royally fucked up somewhere.
So it's not okay for Miley Cyrus to dress in underwear and do all sort of stupid stuff, but no word on a grown-ass married man who does nothing and promote through his song this kind of behaviour?
Okay.
