It’s still a crappy word to call someone.

I got massage oil too! I predict mine will remain unopened until next year though.  Au contraire... Strike while the iron's hot. She gave you the gift; attempt to put it to use. Lay out a towel or two on her side of the bed and set the massage oil on it or nearby. Extend an invitation, and don't forget to turn up the thermostat / bed warmer. Maybe an extra towel to cover the area you aren't working so she doesn't get chilled. And run hot water over the oil bottle to pre-warm it. It may crash and burn, but it'd be a valiant attempt if it does. (Then again, I could be reading this all wrong and that's why I'm in the situation I am. Caveat emptor!) ETA: I should add... in full disclosure, this exact scene went down in flames for me recently; however, W hadn't just gifted me the oil. I think your odds are better sooner than later. Lol... see, it’s like this. It’s too perfect to be a coincidence. NOTHING happens when we have guests staying at our house. The guests arrived today and will be here all week. She had one day to survive, Christmas day. Since I needed to go to work, I went to bed at 10:30 while she stayed up late with the kids (and one of the kid’s friend). So there has been a guest in the house from the start. By Jan 2nd, it won’t be on her mind at all. Rigged from the beginning. Used to it. Maybe I’ll try, just to see what she’ll do. It will most likely be quite comical. |

brian , I hear ya. No attempt here to armchair quarterback your situation. Just tossing out ideas. Plan B: Offer it with no expectations (which is generally a good idea anyway, but truly don't get your hopes up) - just an opportunity for her to unwind from the holiday insanity. That might bridge the gap to a repeat in a week or so that ends more the way you'd hope. Or, maybe wishful thinking. Good luck!

Is it demoralizing when the Greek letters XP (chi rho) are used, as a symbol for the word ΧΡΙΣΤΟΣ, for Christos? Surely you've seen those symbols at church. The thread originator has the right to use the X in place of Christ, as much as you have your right to worship without persecution. He was not demoralizing nor persecuting. |

northstarmom, you're referring to my use of the word cunt, but didn't have the courage to quote or tag me, I will address your response. Since you didn't grow up with the self-centered, picture of privilege, calling herself my mother's sister, please don't tell me what to call her. Walk a mile in my shoes and we'll talk about it. And no, it's nothing like calling someone a n!gger. hopingforachange, not sure if your response was meant to be condescending or if you were actually defending my right to use words of my choosing.

Andie, I believe your aunt is a terrible person. I also believe that calling a woman a cunt insults all women including — if a woman calls the name— herself. “Cunt” is turned into something in insulting, demeaning , and ugly. Yet it is the most amazing and wonderful part of a woman, the source of love, ecstacy , the place also where the miracle of birth occurs. It should be a word that is la compliment and inspiration.
I wish you would call her a bag of shit instead of using a word for pussy to describe a horrible person.
Please think about what it means to turn ladyparts into a vile insult. The only other body part we make into an insult is asshole. Considering it’s designed to expel shit, using it as an insult makes sense. But why make an insult out of the part that is typically calls viewed as what makes women women?

@andie
I was defending your right to use the word. But it's also a little tongue in cheek.

Surely you've seen those symbols at church. The thread originator has the right to use the X in place of Christ, as much as you have your right to worship without persecution. He was not demoralizing nor persecuting. No it is not demoralizing if used as a symbol and used in their full context. No I have never seen those symbols at church. The churches I have attended in my entire life do not use Greek symbols. I speak and read English here in America where I live. I also study and worship Jesus in my every day life outside of a Church building. I also have the right to point out that there is no reason to eliminate Christ from Christmas. Unless you are doing so for political purposes. Something that you are asked not to bring up on this sight. Christ is a free gift that you are free to except. There is no reason to demoralize those who do. The term "x" has as many as 48 other meanings. Several that are demoralizing to Jesus Christ. Personally "X" to me means a big red symbol I was taught to place on someones paper when they got the wrong answer. Not an almighty power that offers me eternal life. I would much rather be speaking with you about your health. I still wonder how your arm and hand are doing when I see your name, and how your marriage is going with a husband who wants a SM. I give you empathy. |

I'm sorry, greatcoastal, but your choosing to falsely interpret the X in Xmas as something negative does not override my right to use it correctly, especially since Christians have been using the term Xmas for centuries. And while I have absolutely nothing against the word Christmas myself, if I would point out others that do have such a problem (you know, the groups who lost millions killed under his name since the Crusades, or the victims of Christmas pogroms) would that give them the right to insist you don't use that word? |
