Age specific support group NOT specific anymore

Do anyone notice that in age specific groups that no one is the right age example

I was reading something in the 20's (age) support group and i see 50 yr olds posting and replying in this forum i think that is kinda annoying sometimes. I will like to read about someone in my age group and how they are liking that lapband I cant compare my body with an 50 yr old

its kinda annoying

:scared2:this is just my rant. anyone notice besides me?????

I do understand your point about being in your 20s and wanting to talk with others in your age group, but remember a 50 year old woman has a great deal of experience with the female body ..... she was in her 20s at one time and many may also have daughters in their 20s. Also, a female body is always a female body unless you have some very big operations to change that.

This I agree with.:w00t:
HB,

Your bodies may be similar and you may have experienced some things that the OP is experiencing now but I "think" she may be looking for those that still have those experiences fresh in their mind as opposed to fuzzy memories. :w00t:

We may forget where we set the car keys last night but we NEVER forget any part of being a women.

The nice thing about this forum is that we all have something in common ..............lapband, or something like it.

I could not have talked with you about the issues most of us talk about here when I was in my 20s. I was not overweight in my 20s, but I am banded in my 40s and I am a woman ............we have that in common.

Nice to see I wasn't the only one that thought so.

Nancy & Kimaly, I agree with you two also on "riding the white pony" remark.

I thought those nasty derogatory remarks would have gone away by the 21st Century.

Kimaly, I agree with all your comments on this post. I can see you are also a "lady".

If we were in a forum where a female made a remark saying "omg I need help I'm riding the white pony ladies and I'm having serveer cramps.. what do you ladies take to make the cramps go away" I bet everyone will ans the question on how to relieve the cramps and just look pass the white pony comment...

When people say "ugggghhh I feel like my uterus is falling out" will you still get offender???

I guess maybe if a guy didn't say it everyone wouldn't have their panties in a bunch over that quote. But if someone say f you there being blunt and thats great uhhhh

Catherine,

You just don't get it. I compared something as beautiful and delicate as a sticky, gooey, bloody mess with cute little ponies and snow white cotton.

I am so ashamed.

If the comment was so bad why in the world does everyone keep repeating it? I have seen it posted here over and over and over.... much more than the one time I saw it in another thread... one time.

Thank You!

Just as I said a 2oyr old can be mature for their age, They can also be inmature for their age. Maybe you could find more people to relate to you in the teenage forum. Just a sugestion.

Talking about swallowing loads and loads ands loads of sperm is ok but Calling periods cotton white pony make you blush.

You shouldn't throw stones if you live in a glass house JUST a suggestion.

First I don't swallow sperm, Second-at least sperm is a medical term and last but not least What the hell are you talking about you foolish child?

I think she is referring to this "medical" thread where you had no objections to sperm being refered to as man juice; swimmers or jizz.

A VERY strange (possibly offensive) question. ***read at your own risk...*** - LAP-BAND

Lol don't play stupid. You say you love blunt people cause "you are blunt" but yet you want to act stupid.

I beleave that was in the powder room, So if you have such a problem with people being in the wrong forum what were you doing in the powder room? And show me just one quote where I used any of those terms or where I said I swallow sperm. I think I said I was married and didn't have to do that further more that was the topic this thread was not about a womens cycle nor your ability to refer to it in that term when your in mixed company. Sorry, try again.
