Aw, you were no two legged ruminant! Because her pregnancy has made me become a protective dragon, I volunteer to punch anyone in the nose who said such a thing (unless it was you). May I ask if your feeling sweaty had anything to do with the temperature or you just felt that way because you were pregnant? I only ask…

I wish there were more resources for the non-pregnant partners who are women. There are a couple of fora, but they're all dead. There's lots of stuff for guys, but while we have some issues in common, I don't need to be told some of the dumb things these advice "resources" advise and I doubt many men do too. Like, I…

Thank you for not making me feel silly about fearing that I'll drop our baby. I feel like that is something that I would do. I have no experience with babies, either. I know I have to get my shit together because I am going to want to hold our baby as soon as it's born. I'm going to remember your courage and that it…

Good point. She initiates sex and physical contact, but I am now learning from people here that what she's feeling may vary from day to day or change as the pregnancy advances. I'm going to talk to her today when she gets home from shopping with her besties. I know I'm going to screw this up, but you're right about me…

Yay, Mr. Haa. Good for you guys. I feel very protective over my wife too especially since we've had a few gay bashing incidents in our neighborhood recently, one of which was a execution-style murder in the street. I'm also worried for her because of the heat. It can't be easy. But, yeah, I feel extremely protective…

Ugh! If she had any idea how bad I want her she'd probably blush and she is not the type to blush over sex. If I had my way, we'd spend the weekend in bed so I could worship her body and show her how much I'm attracted to her (attracted doesn't quite cover it). I feel like I'm in a desert and there's a whole pool of…

I never thought about it being frustrated over being treated so differently because you're pregnant. I just want things to be smooth for her, but I'm coming to realize that I'm sort of doing the opposite. Now I'm learning that pregnant women get horny and, well, now I know I need to stop feeling like a creep and push…

Nothing wrong with bourbon wisdom! Many a dispute has been settled over vine and grain, and not always with fisticuffs, swords, and pistols. It's nice to know that I'm not alone. I just feel like I should be "better" at this because I'm not a guy. I'm not saying guys are inherently bad at dealing with pregnant…

I have to say, my experience with my husband was: the non-pregnant person feels an expectation to be calm, while the pregnant one is supposed to be vulnerable and going through changes. BUT for us, both of us were changing, and quite often I was calmer, because I *really* knew what was 'going on', and he felt…

I actually have a long term shrink and she says that this is "vintage" ReasonWeeps (we're truly an old married couple, my shrink and I). She says that I'm trying to cope with this by micromanaging our household, intellectualizing things, obsessing over my 18-month projection plan, exercising excessively (which I…

I've only done fasting to do "bonk training" which is to go cycling on just a cup of coffee or water. You train for "bonking" to be able to combat it if your training fails you during a competition. For example, I participate in triathlons, so the risk of "bonking" is there and I need to learn how to work around it or…

Does anyone have experience being a woman whose partner/girlfriend/wife/whatevs is pregnant? I'm the not-pregnant woman and I feel like I've turned into this creepy, leering, objectifying, terrible crazy person recently. It is so embarrassing that I can't even tell my friends. It is embarrassing just to think about…

How great would that be? We could explode all of those miserable dickbags with our love and our little baby's cuteness. WBC would be the first stop on our "Combust Conservative Creeps" tour. I figure we could take out Rush, Coulter, Hannity, Beck, Palin, Santorum, Bachmann, and the Teabagger officeholders, and most of…

1. You're absolutely right about the genders being an issue. Many/most white racists don't really object to the men "enjoying" women of color, but they have a pathological psycho-sexual obsession with black male sexuality. Seeing a white woman with a black man sets these guys off. Even America's favorite racist and…

This commercial made me cry. I'm of a multiracial/ethnic background, I gay married a white woman, and we're expecting our first little bundle of multiracial joy this fall. Baby ReasonWeeps will be just like this little girl (or in boy form if he's a he) and it just touched me. It makes me so sad that people would be…

Is this your subtle way of saying we should go to Fox Headquarters or a Teabagger Rally to cause them to burst into flames never to be heard from again? If it is, go on...

You do know that church's didn't have their tax exemption before the 1950s, right? They were taxed before, they can be taxed again. You totally misunderstand the First Amendment. Eliminating the religion exemption across the board has no bearing whatsoever on the teachings, practices, views, rituals, or belief system…

The Establishment Clause aka the separation between church and state has absolutely no bearing on whether or not religious institutions are taxed. The Establishment Clause merely bars the state from establishing a religion. Not exempting any religious institutions from taxation does not violate the Establishment…

I love the dismiss button. Watching the trolls go nuts because they're in gray or, even better, totally not there because they get dismissed is one of my favorite things. I'm glad most people have been abiding by the no feeding the troll strategy but some MRA types, like most psychopaths, don a mask of sanity to lure…

I was just checking to see if I'm doing it right. Confirmation received!
