Realities of FSUW

[mies]

Oh Mies

You have not been a member of a boys club. I will tell you about the local clubs many years ago.

The club was usually a cornfield, old barn, or run down building. The meetings were held after school or saturaday afternoons. Most meetings consisted of some stolen smokes and/or alcohol, a few girly magazines and after about an hour the imaginations were running wild. Most memebers went home sick but there was always the next meeting.

This was back in the good ole days.

wow

[Sculpto]

i like men in Castro  they look very romantic when two guys hold hands, i can tell they are really in love and very happy. I have not noticed many of them having skin problems though.

HAHA.. I like going ot the Castro too.. good places to eat and good mens clothing stores and galleries.  "A" seems to think Gays are cool so I dont think that will be an issue at all.

[Sculpto]

I'm not a Russian female but I'm married to one and I've dated dozens of others. The "conservative" label used by men in reference to RW and sex is pure BS - don't you find it a little... coincidental that the guys who beat the "conservative and innocent" label are the ones who stand to profit from this venture?

Well that is why I asked the question.  My personal experience doesn't correspond with what I have read.  Especially when I was in Donetsk with the Nigerians.. I saw some pretty wild behavior. 

[Ade]

While they stop short of "prescription," there seems to be a theory being bandied about that, generally, 200 times per year is a good threshold for being "healthy" these days.

Google "sex 200 times" and read about Oprah, Dr. Oz and the fascinating argument about whether you should have 200 orgasms or simply have sex.

Well, if you want your woman to be happy I guess you'd have to orgasm http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/health/2067223.stm

[Faux Pas]

I had read some different things on the topic stating that most FSUW are very conservative sexually, and, the last few comments from some of the ladies on the topic of sex plus the debate with Siberia2k also indicate the same

.

Sculpt,

Are you for real? You obviously are not reading enough or certainly the wrong literature. FSUW are NOT very conservative sexually than in any other industrialized country in the world. They are from another country, not another world.  Maybe your "A" is, only you could determine that. You've made some pretty knucklehead statements in this thread for one of such high intellect and worldly as the old hippie you proclaim. Lay off of Gator and don't get your panties in a wad, that question of sexual positions really takes the cake. You really should think before you type. I guess the gangi is improving in the Bay area.

FWIW If your "A" is acting extremely conservative sexually and you have doubts about weather you can discuss sexual positions with her, you should pack the tent on that relationship now. It doesn't matter if you want to wear a chicken suit have have her cluck. If she is that young in maturity, she is way too young for you. If she is mature enough and you can't discuss these topics with her, assuming she has the barrier up, that highly indicates she is not into you sexually. Either scenario is not good if you want to plan long term with her.

IMO when a man and a woman truly love each other, there is no topic for discussion that is out of bounds sexually. Acting on them is up for discussion but any topic can be discussed. Sculpt, you are an admitted freaky deaky firelight dancer from SF. We can only imagine what your fantasy might be but still, if you can't at a minimum discuss it with your future wife, it's time you take a serious accounting of where you are and what you are about to do.

Where did I say ANYTHING about "A" in my question?  I asked a simple freaking question and you jump to all kinds of moronic conclusions. 

Funny thing is it seems to be only some men that have a problem with what I asked.  Seems to be that the ladies here are more than willing to discuss things in a healthy and intelligent way. 

I would suggest it is showing some sort of inadequacy or insecurity on your part. 

and what part of ASKING the LADIES for comment did you, and Gator not understand?

Once again, if you don't have something constructive to contribute keep your mouth shut.  This isn't the bust on Sculpto forum or thread.  If you want to start one go right ahead.

[Blues Fairy]

Seems to be that the ladies here are more than willing to discuss things in a healthy and intelligent way.

Actually I too thought your question a bit infantile.  But no surprise here.

[Wienerin]

Ohmigod! How I hate all this talk whether of ancient Mayya, or ancient Tibetans, or wise woman of the village or whoever - they all could diagnose at a glance the most mysterious disease, and cured viral infections like Hepatitis C or HIV as soon as look at them.

It remains to wonder why the same ancients - Mayya, Tibetan, Mumba-Yumba or villagers of the wise woman's village lost babies in thousands, lost pregnant women in droves, were happy to live to the ripe old age of ... 40-45, and were riddled with such awful incurable diseases as ringworm, etc. Sure, they didn't have heart attacks, mopst cancers, HPB, etc. - they never had anough to eat to develop those, also tnhey didn't live long enough.

The late Pope Voityla's name was Ioann Pavel - not Juan Pablo

I understand that "home cures" and so called "medicine men" are quite popular in some parts of Russia.  I read in a biography Solzhenitsyn even sought out herbal remedies for his cancer while near Baikal.

As far as your critique of Mayan herbal medicine.. when I was on my deathbed with hepatitis A that I picked up from my roomate at the time.. the doctors at the hospital told me there was nothing they could do.. Don F treated me with herbs from his garden and my condition improved very fast.  I suppose the Pope visited him because he was a charlatan?  When I went off his herbs upon returning to the states to "recuperate" my condition worsened again. 

Not every community in the Highlands has someone of his stature.  There are over 10 million Mayans spread out over 5 countries.. the conditions that exist vary from place to place.  In the barrio where Don F lived people were very healthy and still are.  No Uni educated doctor even had an office in that barrio because no one would go to an offical doctor.

But, you can believe what you want..

[Wienerin]

Thanks for answering Ranetka.. I didn't mean swinging or really anything specific.  It is just that SF is very liberal sexually and there are a lot of fetish people here including the Folsom Street Fair which I enjoy attending.  I would not want to make her uncomfortable in that environment for example.. there is other stuff but not appropriate to discuss here.

Listen, you've already said you two are comfortable with each other and can talk about everything, - also that you're planning to marry, are in fact on the road to it and planned your life together in the utmost detail for the next 5 years at least. How come you've never discussed this important question with your girl? What have our tastes and opinions - a random group's very different in agees and background and experience have to do with what your 22 y.o. lady-love likes or finds acceptable?

I wouldn't presume to give an answer for all RW en bloc or for your girl either. We all - as well as our partners have our pet likes and peeves - which doesn't mean those would be the same for you and the girl. Without going into specifics there were some things I wouldn't do with some of my men, some I would tolerate and some I wouldn't do at all.  THat is I would try almost anything - once if I didn't like it or felt uncomfortable with it.

But I am I - not somebody else. For example I wouldn't tolerate doing drugs - even smoking weed.  I wouldn't go in for threesomes, foursomes, etc. or for swinging. I wouldn't tolerate if a man was not into me but into his fantasy, fetish or whatever - since I'd feel tghis has nothing to do with me, that I were a prop in his solo play. If on the other hand he liked me dressing up in certain ways, colors, fashion, - I'm OK with this... except for latex But again this has nothing to do with you or your girl - you have to find out and resolve these questions with her.

Why don't you try some magazins or videos which you'd savor - and observe her reaction, if in more than a year you didn't touch upon this subject?

[Sculpto]

you know what.. forget the question.. obviously it was a bad thing to bring up in this forum.  Way too many assumptions about what my situation is. 

[Faux Pas]

. 

Lets do the math here Sculpt. "A" has been the subject of many threads and posts  by you on this forum. Why would such a conclusion be moronic instead of logical. If you are as open with "A" as you claim why would such a question need to be asked by you? You've had multiple visits to FSU and have bedded FSU women. Is that not a question/questions you could answer for yourself? If you will re-read my post to you rationally you should be able to see the honest context in which it was delivered. It was not in the locker room text but an honest opinion. But, being you brought it up, your question was quite moronic

Funny thing is it seems to be only some men that have a problem with what I asked.  Seems to be that the ladies here are more than willing to discuss things in a healthy and intelligent way

.

What in your mind is a healthy, intelligent way to discuss with a 50 year old man who is unsure how to ask his lady about certain sexual positions?

I would suggest it is showing some sort of inadequacy or insecurity on your part. 

Freudian slip? Pot, Kettle, Black

and what part of ASKING the LADIES for comment did you, and Gator not understand?

I'm not here to goof on you or bust your bawls. You are a grown and fairly intelligent man as far as I can tell. You've stated some good stuff (and some very questionable as well). When you state the obvious bullsh!t you need to be called on it. Just like everyone else.

Sculpto, me and Wienerin (if I understood her correctly) were talking about somewhat different thing. There are people (in Russian or Mayan or any other culture) who can do miraculous things. The problem is there may be few instances of wonderful healing, and hundred thousands of less known unfortunate stories. For example when a 9yo child is brought to the hospital with 3rd stage cancer and tumor on the neck of such size that child could not keep head straight and parents tell that for several months the "medicine woman" in the village was giving her herbs. If not this "medicine woman" - if parents went to doctors and disease was diagnosed earlier - there would be much better chances for the child.
Or multiple other stories - when a man develops incurable melanoma during "medicine man" treatment and dies. Or even more horrific case - not related to cancer - when a teenager falls from tree, on the stomach, and instead of taking him to the hospital "clever" parents take this poor child to the village "health man", and child suffers intolerable pain while his broken and smashed intestinal bleeds and rots inside for 5 days - no painkillers nothing, just herbs from the "health man". And when finally parents take this child to the hospital - he dies within hours.  
I personally am not against people who know how to heal with untraditional ways. I am against the people who jeopardize the life and health of others by their unprofessional activity.

[SANDRO43]

You're both wrong, Karol Józef Wojtyla's official papal name was Ioannes Paulus (secundus) .

I understand that "home cures" and so called "medicine men" are quite popular in some parts of Russia.  I read in a biography Solzhenitsyn even sought out herbal remedies for his cancer while near Baikal.

THen we have to agree on the terms first of all. Lots of home cures are totally accepted by the mainstream medicine - and certainly are used by many Russians, Ukrainians, even English, French and Americans whom I know. Many of over the counter or prescription medication consists of natural stuff, i.e. herbs.

Being a "medicine man" or a "wise woman" inwolves something more than knowledge however extensive of herbs, infusions, tisanes, inhalations, compresses, baths, etc. There enters a question of "powers", magic objects or rituals, special words and incantations... whatever. Voodoo in my book.

It's always been a wonder to me how your New Age liberal is so ... (scip some words ) as to belive in a cure for cancer, core for any viral infection - with herbs, waving of hands in a weird fashion, wearing an amulet or a dozen, or mumbling some incomprehensible words - delivered to a seventh son of a seventh daughter in unbroken sequence from the holy men of Atlantis...

BTW I;'ve had hepatitis, my sons both had it - it was very unpleasant, but nobody was on their deathbed, and there's really nothing much to do but to let the disease run its course... light diet (for life - if you've really have had hepatitis and that bad, you'd never be able to eat your Mexican food that you like afterwards), lots of liquids, some simple herb teas - that was it. I'm talking about IInfectuous hepatitits, - or hepatitis A.

If you've got HepB or C from your roommate - this is another kettle of fish altogether, and aside from you medicine man being plainly unable to "cure" it, I don't want to talk of it...

 I suppose the Pope visited him because he was a charlatan?

 I don't know if the Pope visited him (do not remember any prive visits in His very tight schedule in Latin America), so sorry... If He did - this would be as a Catholic in need not as a medicine man.  

But, you can believe what you want..

I certainly could - if I went through the life all credulous and according to "beliefs". I prefer to use my G-d-given brains, though.

Sorry but I do not believe in ancient mystical lores or miraculous healings... Nor do I belive in cures to viral infections through herbs and incantations. While no one denies traditional herbal medicine or massage, etc. - the examples of the ancient skills are usually not in this modest area of stopping blood, easing dermatitis or curing diarrhea. And when I hear that someone cures hepatitis, HIV, cancer, etc. I do not feel piety but a strong desire to call for police.

If I had been asking a specific question relative to my GF I would have said so.  I wasn't and you and several others assumed.  Thats all.

What in your mind is a healthy, intelligent way to discuss with a 50 year old man who is unsure how to ask his lady about certain sexual positions?

you still don't get it.

And then there is the behavior of a troll, who posts only to get a rise out of someone but who in reality has nothing of significance to contribute to a particular conversation.  I am not saying anyone beyond who I accused the other day is a troll, but, sometimes people make comments that do not contribute and derail a legitimate thread.  The negative comments that have taken place today are of the trollish type.

I'll side with Sculpto on this, that is if I have his permission to not ignore him HeeHeee Haaa Haaa Hooooooo..! !  !!

A Lot of herbal remedies do indeed work, some work wonders... Many of the ancients died early not because of the lack of modern medicine, which does wonders in itself but because of a serious lack of hygiene.
I have a personal example of this. A few years before I got married (that puts it at about 16-17 years) my mother was diagnosed as having a very advanced case of Lyme's. It was in her brain and at that stage it is considered terminal. The doctors told her to go home and get her affairs in order because she had 3 to 6 months to live.
I had heard on a radio program about colloidal silver. I thought "What the heck, no harm in trying." So I bought some and had it shipped to her. She started using it and when she went back the doctors were stunned. She was in remission and the Lyme's was in full retreat. They said this doesn't happen. Silver isn't a cure for Lyme's but it controls it. Silver attaches itself to enzymes altering their makeup and they are no longer available as a food source to bacteria and viruses. Silver starves bacteria and viruses. It can't get all of it but it is enough to keep your immune system from being overwhelmed. My mother is alive today, against all the predictions of her doctors.
Very soon after I bought the initial batch for my mother the FDA made it illegal to produce for sale colloidal silver. So I found out how to make it and that is what I did. I taught my mom how to make it and she takes it to this day, although in reduced amounts. Too much will make your body toxic. You also have to replace the beneficial bacteria in our gut which is lost thru this starvation, so a lot of yogurt is in order.
I related this story to my ex-wife and mother-in-law and my mom-in-law kind of chuckled. She related how her mother has always kept milk in a silver container to keep bacteria at bay and the milk keeps longer.
I also have benefited from herbs. I take a supplement called Super Greens. It is a mixture of 19 different seed extracts. Before I took this I would have a lot of pain in my bowel movements, which occurred about every three days. After about two weeks taking the stuff I can set my watch by my daily, pain free bowel movement. I wanted to test this, so I stopped taking it. About two weeks later I was back to the old routine. I went back on it and have been regular for years.
Not all the old stuff is quackery. There are many benefits to natural remedies.

I saw this child in the hospital and she is one of the reasons why I decided to have different profession. If not this "medicine woman" - if parents went to doctors and disease was diagnosed earlier - there would be much better chances for the child.

And when finally parents take this child to the hospital - he dies within hours.  
I personally am not against people who know how to heal with untraditional ways - my greatgrandma was capable to stop strong bleeding (most likely not all types of it, but still..) without any special applications or bondages - and I believe there are people who can do things which are hard to explain scientifically at the present stage of science development. I am against the people who jeopardize the life and health of others by their unprofessional activity.

There is a difference between the charlatan and someone trained in a family tradition of medicine.  Don F was by no means calling up the spirits or waving magic wands.  He used a variety of home grown herbs and on occasion prescribed modern medications fromt he pharmacy.  

As far as cancer treatments.. many people from around the world visited him.  People who were already terminal.  Sometimes he was able to help them and others he was not.  He had literally thousands of postcards from every country.

when I was on my deathbed with hepatitis A that I picked up from my roomate at the time.. the doctors at the hospital told me there was nothing they could do

And how did you pick that up?

Hep A rarely kills.
Liver is a massive organ and most patients with Hep A recover.
As such there is no medical treatment effective against this virus. However there is no harm in giving the patient some grass claiming it is a special herb. If the patient survives (which is very likely as most with hepatitis do) then one can claim the credit. If the patient dies, so what? He won't be able to publish his story on an internet form would he?

If you used any of those terms in relation to Don F in his presence you would have been asked to leave.

It's always been a wonder to me how your New Age liberal is so ... (scip some words ) as to belive in a cure for cancer, core for any viral infection - with herbs, waving of hands in a weird fashion, wearing an amulet or a dozen, or mumbling some incomprehensible words - delivered to a seventh son of a seventh daughter in unbroken sequence from the holy men of Atlantis...

As I said previously, Don F did none of those things.  He used herbs and some of the other things you mentioned.

BTW I;'ve had hepatitis, my sons both had it - it was very unpleasant, but nobody was on their deathbed, and there's really nothing much to do but to let the disease run its course... light diet (for life - if you've really have had hepatitis and that bad, you'd never be able to eat your Mexican food that you like afterwards), lots of liquids, some simple herb teas - that was it. I'm talking about IInfectuous hepatitits, - or hepatitis A.

I got sick while in the jungle in Guatemala up river to visit an archeological site.  It took almost six days to get back to SCLC.  I arrived back on a Sunday night and went to sleep.  24 hours later my neighbor practically broke the door down trying to wake me up because I had left the light on and they knew I had been in the jungle.  They could see me through the window.  They took me to the doctor... I was severely dehydrated and jaundiced.   The doctor told me to drink water and eat candy.  Several days later I was less dehydrated but hadn't eaten food in over a week.  Another friend took me to Don F who gave me herbs that had been made into a tea.  It tasted horrible but within an hour I had an appetite.  They fed me boiled apples and the herbal concoction every couple of hours.  I was back on my feet in about three weeks.  Went back to the states and turned yellow again and was off my feet for about six weeks.

 I don't know if the Pope visited him (do not remember any prive visits in His very tight schedule in Latin America), so sorry... If He did - this would be as a Catholic in need not as a medicine man.  
 

Juan Pablo Dos (Mexicans know him as such) visited Don F for about ten minutes to give him an award for a lifetime of service and as another certificate as an apology for the burning of his ancestor during the Inquisition.  There was a photo of the event and the award displayed prominently on the wall.  I wasn't there unfortunately but many of my friends were.

[Sculpto]

colloidal silver.

silver is amazing.  I take a spoonfull every two weeks or so.  I am pretty sure that is why I haven't been sick since I started it in 2001, except for the 36 hours in Moscow and "A" was frankly amazed how quickly I recovered.

[Sculpto]

 cures

Cure and alleviate symptoms are two different things.  In the case of the HIV infected junkie Don F was able to keep him healthy and functioning for a couple of years.. then he left SCLC because he thought he was better.. 6 months later he returned with the "slim" and covered in sores.  At that point Don F was not able to help him and he died about 6 months after.

Interesting point about the subject. Faith healers, witches, voodoo practitioners, etc. always enjoy the "out" of claiming the victim's faith simply wasn't strong enough or that it was the "Lord's (or whoever's) Will," while the occasional recovery can be claimed as "proof" of their miraculous powers. For those who believe in these powers, I wish you well and hope your dreams work out for you. My individual belief is that while the Lord has powers to heal, he rarely feels it necessary to delegate his powers.

Then again, the Lord works in mysterious ways and who knows what miracles he may bring about?

Probably I got it from him sharing a joint.. we had seperate bathrooms and didn't eat together.  He got it at some primitive beach probably from a contaminated fish.
