Carin replies on Oct 19, 2018:
@genessa The percent of mothers who initiate breastfeeding in the US is, I believe, at least 65%... It's illegal for workplaces to forbid breastfeeding or pumping. In fact they are required to provide a private place that's NOT a bathroom for a mom to nurse or pump during breaks. Sadly, some moms are reluctant to demand these rights for fear of being fired. Also consider that breastfeeding is pretty much free, & saves on doctor visits & missed work for the parent bringing the baby in. Formula isn't cheap & some babies need more expensive kinds too. I do think we might be getting a bit off topic though...

Carin replies on Oct 19, 2018:
@genessa Of course there are cases like yours & formula can indeed be a life saver! I hope everything turned out OK for your mom. But, in almost all cases, women can breastfeed their kids with the right information & support. Otherwise our species would be extinct. We are mammals & that's what mammals do.

Carin replies on Oct 19, 2018:
One important reason it's divided by gender is that men can't breastfeed, & there is absolutely no doubt that formula feeding is a very poor substitute for breastfeeding. Currently the American Academy of Pediatrics recommends breastfeeding for one year minimum with no upper limit, while the World Health Organization recommends 2 years, also with no "mandatory" weaning age as breast milk continues to have health benefits at age 5 or older. Also, pumping at work is huge pain in the butt & many working moms have trouble maintaining a full supply. It really is so much more work.

Incest: Immoral or Moral?

The goats I raise were feral for a couple hundred years, so essentially wild animals, until the 1980s & I assure you, they have absolutely NO qualms about incest. The dominant male goat will drive out only his male kids & happily mate with his daughters & the daughters he has by them.

I lived on the Big Isalnd for a year & when snorkeling you could see & feel the freshwater springs emptying into the ocean. The visual effect looked kind of like heat waves rising off a hot road & swimming through them, the water felt MUCH colder. There were old villages where they got all their water by diving down with gourds & collecting the somewhat brackish water from the submerged springs. In one ancient village I followed a trail & found their water source, a tiny Queen's bath with 2 steps down & a little stone wall & cover protecting it. I may have been the first person to taste that water in years, & the delicate hint of sea salt, along with no chlorine, made it probably the best tasting & most memorable mouthful of water I've had.

Carin replies on Oct 2, 2018:
Your dog may feel better if you leave a shirt that you've worn, or your pillowcase, in his bed when you're gone, so he can smell you. You can also try talking to him on the phone, but sometimes that seems to confuse & distress them more that it seems to help. One thing that helps a lot for animals (& children too) is to have the sitter come over & visit before hand. When my kids were little I'd also pay the sitter to come a half hour or hour before I had to leave. It helps so much! We always had friends or neighbors pet sit so they already knew the person, so it wasn't as big an issue for the pets.

I need some kissing advice from the ladies. Okay so what do you look for in a kiss?
Charity comments on Sep 30, 2018:
Start with a few gentle peck kisses on the lips. I hate it when guys go straight to tongue! A girl always appreciates a little restraint. Make sure you're alone. She may be like Janet Jackson...close the door if you want her to respond. Then rub your non dominant hand up her back as you lean ...

If someone grabbed my hair & tugged it would scare me! Much prefer he lift my chin a bit with a very soft touch.

I haven't paid rent or a mortgage payment since my early thirties because of what I'm doing in that picture. You can do it too.

@icolan I'm still not seeing the difference between this idea & the draft, except that women would be required to serve. I never felt it was fair that only males were drafted. It's blatant discrimination based on gender.

@puppylov You're paying it back for the schooling you received. & do you really want to be surrounded by a bunch of ignorant illiterates?

Population growth is essential for capitalism, & you're also talking about family planning, which is a big no-no for the party in power.
There are only 2 possible answers but hundreds of ways to say them, discuss.

I can wear high heels as long as I don't try to walk in them.
Anyone else worry about STI's (STD's) Over 50's are the fastest growing age group for infections!!

Let's see; after women got the right to vote what was the first thing they got passed, Prohibition! Lets be careful with generalities. Also, I just heard on NPR that even though over 60% of women are against tRump 28% still support him.
Carin replies on Sep 19, 2018:
@JackPedigo I love Ken Burns! I'll have to watch it. In a town not far from me, there is a drinking fountain on a corner with WCTU (Women's Christian Temperance Union) engraved in the stone. I guess they didn't want anyone to use thirst as an excuse to buy beer! Last I was there it still worked too.
So, Ive been talking to this guy on a dating site for a couple days.

The millisecond he mentioned a country from Africa, my internal alarm bells went on full alert. Nothing good will come from anyone claiming to be from that continent.
Carin replies on Sep 19, 2018:
@Infoguy211 I think in places like that, marriage may be seen as less about romance & more about practicality. Given the expectations for wives in Africa, I do NOT want to be one of them.

@Infoguy211 I've been talking to him for a couple years about his project feeding homeless people over there. He got this way once before & eventually got over it. I find it very awkward. But I'm safe as he can't come over here.
