  • My sexual past is not kicking my a$$ (I'm kicking my sexual past's a$$)
    “Some features are common to most dysfunctional families:
    Lack of empathy, understanding, and sensitivity towards certain family members, while expressing extreme empathy or appeasement towards one or more members who have real or perceived "special needs". In other words, one family member continuously receives far more than they deserve, while another is marginalized.
    Denial (refusal to acknowledge abusive behavior, possibly believing that the situation is normal or even beneficial; also known as the "elephant in the room".)
    Inadequate or missing boundaries for self (e.g. tolerating inappropriate treatment from others, failing to express what is acceptable and unacceptable treatment, tolerance of physical, emotional or sexual abuse.)
    Disrespect of others' boundaries (e.g. physical contact that other person dislikes; breaking important promises without just cause; purposefully violating a boundary another person has expressed.)
    Extremes in conflict (either too much fighting or insufficient peaceful arguing between family members.)
    Unequal or unfair treatment of one or more family members due to their birth order, gender, age, family role (mother, etc.), abilities, race, caste, etc. (may include frequent appeasement of one member at the expense of others, or an uneven/inconsistent enforcement of rules.)”

  • I made peace with the chaos called organized crime. I don’t condone it, but it doesn’t ruin me. Thank you for your month's long worth of patience regarding the close-out of my childhood anguish tales.
    Women would pay me to run errands for them (which I did.) “An errand is a task of no great consequence, typically concerning household or business affairs, which requires the person undertaking it to travel to a place where it can be accomplished. The activity of undertaking this task is called running an errand, while a series of such tasks undertaken in a single outing is called errand-running or running errands.”

  • I kissed religion goodbye now and forevermore!

    “Manifest destiny was a cultural belief in the 19th-century United States that American settlers were destined to expand across North America.[3][4][5] There were three basic tenets to the concept:[6][7]

    The special virtues of the American people and their institutions
    The mission of the United States to redeem and remake the West in the image of the agrarian East
    An irresistible destiny to accomplish this essential duty
    Historians have emphasized that "manifest destiny" was always contested. Many endorsed the idea, but the large majority of Whigs and many prominent Americans (such as Abraham Lincoln and Ulysses S. Grant) rejected the concept.[8][9][10] Historian Daniel Walker Howe writes, "American imperialism did not represent an American consensus; it provoked bitter dissent within the national polity while the Whigs saw America's moral mission as one of democratic example rather than conquest.[3][11] The term was used by the then-Democrats in the 1840s to justify the Mexican–American War, and it was also used to negotiate the Oregon boundary dispute. Historian Frederick Merk says manifest destiny always limped along because of its internal limitations and the issue of slavery, and never became a national priority of the United States.[3] By 1843, former U.S. President John Quincy Adams, originally a major supporter of the concept underlying manifest destiny, had changed his mind and repudiated expansionism because it meant the expansion of slavery in Texas.[3]
    Newspaper editor John O'Sullivan is generally credited with coining the term manifest destiny in 1845 to describe the essence of this mindset;[12] other historians believe the unsigned editorial titled "Annexation" in which it first appeared was written by journalist and annexation advocate Jane Cazneau.[13][14].” “Etymology of the Word God
    Oddly, the exact origin of the word God is unknown.
    All that we know for certain is that the word God is a relatively new European invention, which was never used in any of the ancient Judaeo-Christian scripture manuscripts which were written in Hebrew, Aramaic, Greek or Latin.
    This situation is quite remarkable, since there is a long history of people arguing and fighting over the name of God, yet we don't even know where this European-invented word God came from!
    Amusingly, none of the prophets, sages and disciples who wrote down the various books of the Bible would recognize or understand this recently invented word God. Yet people fight over it!” “https://wahiduddin.net/words/name_god.htm. More secular establishments are opening, and more churches are closing. People are spending more time in secular environments than Christian environments. You can’t limit a deity to a name that it doesn’t call itself. A deity is too “venerated” to have a name. I value emanationism over creationism. I invented a word based upon emanation. I’m not a product of a rib, I am not sourced from dirt, and I don’t see myself as a “filthy rag.” Bible verses and gospel music reinforce self-loathing in the wordings. I am not Original Sin because I am an Original Blessing. Jesus embraces single parents, stepfamilies, emancipation, healthy disownment, adoptions, sperm banks, foster families, and civil unions.

  • “Spare the rod and spoil the child” is not in the Bible
    “It’s time for parents to abandon the old adage that kids “deserve a good spanking” every once in a while.
    The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) issued a strong statement in 2018, advising parents not to spank their children, based on a growing pile of studies showing that the disciplinary technique does more harm than good.
    “The new AAP statement includes data that show that kids who were spanked in their early years were more likely to be more defiant, show more aggressive behavior later in preschool and school and have increased risk for mental health disorders and lower self-esteem,” says pediatrician Karen Estrella, MD.
    Research over the last 20 years has demonstrated that spanking increases aggression in young children and is ineffective in changing their undesirable behavior, the AAP says. Studies have also linked spanking to an increased risk of mental health disorders and impaired brain development.
    The AAP is an influential professional association that represents some 67,000 pediatricians across the country. But this evolution in thinking about parental discipline isn’t just limited to medical professionals — fewer parents raising children today seem to support spanking. In a 2013 poll, about half of parents under the age of 36 reported having spanked their own children. Among all of the older generations, that number was 70% or higher.” “Discipline strategies to use instead of spanking
    Try these three steps to effectively discipline your child: Establish a positive and supportive parent-child relationship that gives your child a reason to demonstrate good behavior.
    Use positive reinforcement to encourage your child to behave.
    If necessary, use other disciplinary methods such as time outs or taking away your child’s favorite privileges for a period of time.
    Dr. Estrella builds on those and other recommendations from the AAP with these additional tips:
    Be a role model. Make it a priority to remain calm, with the understanding that your child looks to you to be an example of how to behave.
    Set rules and limits that can be enforced consistently among all caretakers. There should be no good guy/bad guy for your child with multiple caretakers. Make sure that rules are verbalized using age-appropriate language.
    Constantly praise and celebrate good behaviors. Give attention to behaviors that you want your child to repeat. Show that you are observant and proud when they behave well.
    Similarly, know when not to respond. “Ignoring a bad behavior, for example if a child throws himself to the floor because he wasn’t allowed to play on the iPad, is a good way to make that behavior decrease with time,” Dr. Estrella says. “In this case, the child will learn that throwing a tantrum will not get him the iPad.”
    Learn from past experience. What triggers your child’s misbehavior? If you can identify a trigger, are there ways to avoid it, or at least better prepare for it? Make sure your child knows what the consequences will be if they don’t comply with your requests or misbehaves in a certain situation.
    Redirect bad behavior. Turn “don’t do that” into an action that your child can do. If your child takes a toy from a playmate, for example, offer your child another toy or activity until it’s their turn. Use the same mindset for winning/losing situations.
    Call a time out when a rule is broken. Remove your child from that situation for a pre-set amount of time, which can be one minute per year of age. Explain in a short phrase why you are doing it. Once your child gets older, let them lead the time out by saying, “Go to time out and come back when you are calm and ready.” This can teach your child to understand their emotions, actions and consequences, Dr. Estrella explains.
    “Talk with your pediatrician if those behaviors are common at your kid’s age about what strategies to use,” she adds. “If needed, a pediatric psychologist, as well as community resources can provide parenting classes for additional guidance or support.”

  • Christlikeness has no religion!
    This is me. “Irreligion is defined as a rejection of religion, but whether it is distinct from lack of religion is disputed. The Encyclopedia of religion and society defines it as the "rejection of religion in general or any of its more specific organized forms, as distinct from absence of religion";[5] while the Oxford English dictionary defines it as want of religion; hostility to or disregard of religious principles; irreligious conduct;[6] and the Merriam Webster dictionary defines it as "neglectful of religion : lacking religious emotions, doctrines, or practices".[7] I love the human rights, animal rights, equal rights, environmentalist, gray-area thinker imagery of God. I appreciate that God. A lot of believers value The Old Testament over the red letters of Jesus. Nonbelievers read the entire Bible, lots of believers don’t. Nonbelievers read the Bible, lots of believers don’t. Lastly, nonbelievers are courageous about reading the Bible and lots of believers are afraid to read the Bible. I am open to being featured in this: “More About Softcore
    Softcore scenes are often carefully staged to make sure they show very little explicit imagery. Draped hair, clothing, or hands may cover body parts. Directors may position plants or drapery in front of the bodies. Camera angles will be carefully chosen to add to the mystery.
    Due to their more acceptable nature, softcore films are less restricted than hardcore pornographic works. Softcore films can receive movie ratings, although they may get released without ratings. Some countries, such as Germany, allow teens to buy softcore content years before they can buy hardcore content. Adult filmmakers sometimes create softcore and hardcore versions of their films, with the softcore one featuring different camera angles. The softcore version can get sold to hotels for pay-per-view and in countries that restrict hardcore content.
    What constitutes softcore pornography and the ways it differs from hardcore can be a matter of personal opinion. Someone who doesn't watch hardcore pornography may view some softcore works as hardcore. An individual who regularly consumes porn may feel that some porn in the hardcore category is actually softcore.
    Despite its waning popularity, some people prefer consuming softcore content to hardcore content. Many people appreciate the sensuality and subtlety of softcore content. Softcore content can be more appealing to audiences looking for adult entertainment that presents loving relationships. As softcore movies are more plot-driven than most hardcore movies, they can also be more engaging. Sometimes these plots feel cliched or contrived, especially for older softcore content, but some fans say this only adds to the fun.
    Viewing softcore pornographic content may be an alternative for people who worry about their consumption of hardcore porn. As softcore typically represents loving relationships, it is a more realistic type of adult content. People who do not enjoy hardcore porn may enjoy watching softcore porn with a partner to get aroused.”

  • I was forced to be a child pimp, a child male madam, a child brothel keeper, a child procurer, and a child panderer!
    “Procuring, pimping or pandering is the facilitation or provision of a prostitute or other sex worker in the arrangement of a sex act with a customer.[1] A procurer, colloquially called a pimp (if male) or a madam (if female, though the term pimp has still extensively been used for female procurers as well) or a brothel keeper, is an agent for prostitutes who collects part of their earnings. The procurer may receive this money in return for advertising services, physical protection, or for providing and possibly monopolizing a location where the prostitute may solicit clients. Like prostitution, the legality of certain actions of a madam or a pimp vary from one region to the next. Examples of procuring include:
    Trafficking a person into a country for the purpose of soliciting sex
    Operating a business where prostitution occurs
    Transporting a prostitute to the location of their arrangement
    Deriving financial gain from the prostitution of another.” I witnessed prostitution in pool halls, dance venues, and gambling places as a child too. I remember talking to criminals nap-associating adults at the criminal-owned bars and dancing and partying with them. There were a handful queer brothel keepers, queer pimps, queer prostitution clients, and queer madams. The tough-guy persona that I was forced to have and made by the streets made sure that queerphobia nor queer hate crimes didn’t happen to them. Queerphobia and queer hate crimes in the sex industry happened in the first month of my forced life into organized crime. I witnessed Illegal sports, including underground fight clubs, street racing and baiting
    Poaching and overfishing
    Illegal logging, illegal construction, and illegal mining
    Blood sports such as dog fighting, organized horse fighting, betta-fighting, ram fighting, cockfighting, and bullfighting.” I was known for pushing male misogynists down the stairs because they were attempting to physically attack women. I also overcame the sexual dog-eat-dog world. Bond hearings are real. Tainting jury pools, retaliating against witnesses, impugn character of judges, gag orders, protective orders, defying terms of conditional release, obstruction of justice, being jailed or detained pending trial, and intimidating witness are all real. I witnessed all of the above.

  • Sexual self-care!
    “Self-care has been defined as the process of establishing behaviors to ensure holistic well-being of oneself, to promote health, and actively manage illness when it occurs.[1] Individuals engage in some form of self-care daily with food choices, exercise, sleep, reading and dental care.[1] Self-care is not only a solo activity as the community—a group that supports the person performing self-care—overall plays a large role in access to, implementation of, and success of self-care activities.” “Feminist Porn As A Genre
    Feminist porn as a “genre” is also fairly tricky to define as it includes so many types of sex acts, orientations, performers and methods. “Gonzo” porn – which has no plot and often the director is part of the action – is quite common, as is “documentary-style” shooting where the performers have whatever sex they like without direction. At the same time, you’ll find your fair share of feature-style films with elaborate storylines and great acting. Queer and lesbian porn has come to be heavily associated with it but there’s also plenty of heterosexual-themed films as well.
    Feminist porn doesn’t discriminate when it comes to what sex it depicts. Films can show softcore, soft-focus, romantized sex or full-on hardcore, fisting, female ejaculation or intense kink. It can happily depict rough sex, BDSM, choking, spitting, facial cumshots or anything else Gail Dines regularly attributes to “degrading porn”. The sex acts themselves are not a defining feature; an emphasis on agency and enthusiastic consent – especially when it comes to “extreme” porn – takes precedence.
    Female-identified directors have tended to dominate feminist porn but it’s not an exclusive club – male-identified directors have described their porn as feminist as well. And of course, trans and non-binary people feature as prominent creators of feminist porn content.”

  • I am experiencing true sexual growth!
    “The WHO report describes the consequences of sexual abuse:
    Gynecological disorders
    Reproductive disorders
    Sexual disorders
    Infertility
    Pelvic inflammatory disease
    Pregnancy complications
    Miscarriage
    Sexual dysfunction
    Acquiring sexually transmitted infections, including HIV/AIDS
    Mortality from injuries
    Increased risk of suicide
    Depression
    Chronic pain
    Psychosomatic disorders
    Unsafe abortion
    Unwanted pregnancy (see Pregnancy from rape)[24].” “The WHO states that the principal factors that lead to the perpetration of sexual violence against women, including rape, are:[49]
    beliefs in family honor and sexual purity;
    attitudes of male sexual entitlement;
    weak legal sanctions for sexual violence.
    No single facet explains the motivation for rape; the underlying motives of rapists can be multi-faceted. Several factors have been proposed: anger,[50] power,[51] sadism, sexual gratification, or evolutionary proclivities.[52][53] However, some factors have significant causal evidence supporting them. American clinical psychologist David Lisak, co-author of a 2002 study of undetected rapists,[54] says that compared with non-rapists, both undetected and convicted rapists are measurably more angry at women and more motivated by a desire to dominate and control them, are more impulsive, disinhibited, anti-social, hypermasculine, and less empathic.[55]
    Sexual aggression is often considered a masculine identity characteristic of manhood in some male groups and is significantly correlated to the desire to be held higher in esteem among male peers.[56] Sexually aggressive behavior among young men has been correlated with gang or group membership as well as having other delinquent peers.[57][58]
    Gang rape is often perceived by male perpetrators as a justified method of discouraging or punishing what they consider as immoral behavior among women – for example, wearing short skirts or visiting bars. In some areas in Papua New Guinea, women can be punished by public gang rape, usually through permission by elders.[59]”
    Gang rape and mass rape are often used as a means of male bonding. This is particularly evident among soldiers, as gang rape accounts for about three quarters or more of war rape, while gang rape accounts for less than a quarter of rapes during peacetime. Commanders sometimes push recruits to rape, as committing rape can be taboo and illegal and so builds loyalty among those involved. Rebel groups who have forced recruitment as opposed to volunteer recruits are more involved in rape, as it is believed the recruits start with less loyalty to the group.[60] In Papua New Guinea, urban gangs such as Raskol gangs often require new members to rape women as part of their initiation.[61]
    Perpetrators of sex trafficking and cybersex trafficking allow or carry out rape[62][63][64] for financial gain[65] and/or sexual gratification.[66] Rape pornography, including child pornography, is created for profit and other reasons.[67] There have been instances of child sexual abuse and child rape videos on Pornhub.[68][69]”

    “Film production consists of five major stages:[2]
    Development: Ideas for the film are created, rights to existing intellectual properties are purchased, etc., and the screenplay is written. Financing for the project is sought and obtained.
    Pre-production: Arrangements and preparations are made for the shoot, such as hiring cast and film crew, selecting locations, and constructing sets.
    Production: The raw footage and other elements of the film are recorded during the film shoot, including principal photography.
    Post-production: The images, sound, and visual effects of the recorded film are edited and combined into a finished product.
