Writer's Block: Go it alone

Do you think society puts too much pressure on people to be in relationships and/or have children? Do you think this ostracizes people who would be perfectly content to remain single and/or child-free? Is this pressure worse around the holidays?

YES!
Oh man. I doubt I will ever marry and I know for 100% certain I will never have kids and I am getting tired of stupid, sexist relatives saying "When you get married..." and "When you have children..." and then when I say I never am they get this weird look on their face and say "Oh yes you will. Trust me you will." Uh, no. Jedi mind tricks don't work on me. I don't like babies. As someone on AVEN once said, they look like Satan when they are screaming. Lol! I agree. And I also have no desire to carry around a heavy, kicking parasite for nine months then have it burst screaming from my poor, innocent vag like in that Alien movie only it would be a crotchburster I guess instead of a chestburster. Aaaaaaaah! Yeah, not going to happen. Ever.
I also doubt I will ever find a partner with which to spend the rest of my life because I am asexual and since the majority of human beings out there want sex when they are married I have to find one of two things:
1. A person I don't mind having sex with, of which I've only met one in my entire life.
2. Another asexual.
The chances of finding either, much less one that fits one of those qualifications and gets along with me, are slim as hell.

Writer's Block: Book review

What (if any) books would you ban from a high school library? Are there certain subjects that you feel are inappropriate for teenagers regardless of literary merit?


View 1448 Answers


No, none. Some teenagers have to live through things that most people would consider inappropriate to live through, why should such issues be banned from discussion? Some teens are pregnant, some are doing drugs, some have abusive families, some have issues, some are runaways, some are foster kids, some cut.. The list goes on. To ban books that touch on "adult" issues is to sweep under the rug all the people who have had to live through "adult" problems at an earlier age. And when it comes to classics, it's not like high schoolers used to have to read only "teen" books when those were written. I'm sure people used to just read whatever they found interesting, not just books for adults or books for teens. Anyway, books should be read, not banned!

Writer's Block: If these walls could talk

Would you rent or buy the home of your dreams if a brutal murder had taken place there? What if you got to live there rent-free? Would you think twice if neighbors warned you that it was haunted?


View 998 Answers


   Oh, hell no! I've already lived in a haunted house, thank you very much. I will never sleep with the lights on in utter fear ever again! I am very sensitive to negative energy and if the neighbors are mentally ill it will affect me. If someone in the house is very negative and angry, I will feel it. I try to live in places that feel positive to me.

Hmm... I would hope to have the one I truly love in front of me and just tell him I loved him. And then hopefully die before he had a chance to vomit. D:

Writer's Block: Change is good

If you could change one major thing about your life, whether a relationship, your job, your living situation, your school, etc., what would it be? Are you currently working toward a serious life transition?


View 1279 Answers


EVERYTHING. No, seriously. I would like to be working, going to a different school, I want my own apartment, new friends, and I want all these guys who are all "Durr hurr sex is a spiritual expression of love, who cares that you're asexual" to stop falling in love with me. o_0 I want my ex-fiance back. I want my healthy body back.
Am I taking steps towards any of this? Well, it's mostly stuff beyond my control unfortunately, otherwise I would. I am about to start an Etsy shop though so I'll feel a little better about myself.

Writer's Block: Relive in the moment

If you could relive one hour of your life so far, what would you choose and why? Would you do or say anything different? How do you think it would change your life?


View 1016 Answers


 I would relive just lying on my back, in my ex-fiance's arms, by the pond looking up at the white sky. He had Social Distortion's "Angels Wings" playing on his cell phone. It was lovely. I wouldn't have changed a thing except to add one more "I love you" that I can't say now. :(

Writer's Block: Nature or nurture

Do you think your moods are controlled by your brain chemistry or that your brain chemistry dictates your moods? Do you believe people are born with particular emotional temperaments or that they are primarily shaped by environmental factors?

   To be honest, I get tired of people saying to each other, "Oh, you're not really sad, you just have a brain chemistry issue." or "Oh, you're not really joyful, you're just in a bipolar mania." Brain chemistry has an effect on long-term moods and mood patterns. It does not dictate everything. If someone is depressed 100% of the time, for a long time, and can't think of anything that could possibly be affecting them and making them feel that way, it's probably a chemical problem. However, most people do have reasons to have emotions, which can be traced to events. Say you get dumped. You will cry and be sad for a night, a few days, a few weeks, or far longer. Different things affect different people differently. I think it's a cop-out to blame chemicals and hormones in the body for everything. It's very easy to say someone's body is causing emotions instead of taking responsibility that you might have made someone sad or that someone you know is hurting. It does feel shitty to know someone is hurting for real reasons, yes, but to say it is not genuine emotion with a cause hurts like hell for that person. I can attest to this.
     As for being born with certain personality traits... I think it's true to a degree. I was always an independant, artistic person and despite my upbringing which sought to destroy everything about me and reshape me into a clone of my mild-mannered cousin, I am still independant and artistic. I am still who I was.

Writer's Block: Forgive and forget?

Do you tend to forgive and forget or hold grudges? What is the longest you've ever stayed angry with someone? Is there anything the other person could say or do to win back your friendship and trust?


View 1516 Answers


       It depends on the person I'm dealing with. I've had friends do some pretty heinous things to me and I still talked to them. I forgave them... But I did not forget. I don't forget. That would be to close my eyes. Once someone has hurt me I try to think they won't do it again but there always is the possibility. 
       Winning back my friendship is easy. My trust? Not so much. I am pretty stupid though so I'll trust them and then afterwards be like, "Man I shouldn't have done that, they could've easily screwed me over again."
