    Two of our long time members, Heat and Mattinvegas, have started a Men's Issues Forum, for now, it is in the Personal Forum section.

    People have asked for it, suggestions have been made to do it. It is finally done. We had one a while ago, but the Mod left and it faded.

    Here is the link, if you are interested

    Have fun, dudes!!!! ........(and ladies.)

    To tell you the truth, Velvet, YES. Those would be SOME of the issues.
    We also give advice for NEW Dads.

    Actually I've been hoping to get in touch with men who experience the same trouble I've been having with my balls.

    Perhaps I shouldn't tell you this princess but you see since last October they've been sticking to the inside of my right leg causing me to nearly fall flat on my face on several occasions.

    The balls sticking needs to find a WHOLE other website to visit. There ARE issues about our nuts, but it goes MORE toward Serious issues. Like, Testicular Cancer.
    As I said before. This forum is to HELP MEN deal with real life shit that MEN have to face. Keep it REAL, or KEEP OUT!

    The man problem I find myself dealing with on occasion are crusty wet scabs on or about the anus as a result of my unconventional bohemian lifestyle of sleeping under freeway bridges and not being able to shower everyday.

    We opened this for anyone who feels that they have something that they want to discuss to be able to post it and to share. Sometimes that may even to be to get a male perspective on an issue or to gather forth experience and information and apply it to their own situations. At times it may be a peer sharing and that also will fall as it should as most threads will go where they should.

    We will have bumps along the way and at times this forum may get a little rocky. The only promise I can make is that we will try to always be fair and if there is an issue we ask that you just approach us. We will not do flaming or personal attacks....but sharing is not only ok but hopefully what all wish it to be.

    You will be welcomed and we hope that you are comfortable and share.

    I trust after reading your post that you will have the time to resolve what is important to you and that you will share with all of us what you may need to and that we will have the ears to hear it.

    Take care of you.

    I disagree......as all people do have issues and Men are people. Some issues are more Male in nature and this is a place that it can be discussed.

    Some issues will fall into both genders without a blink and it is interchangeable.....other times it will not be as some situations will be unique to Men.

    To feel that to be a male means that there are no issues is not a fair statement.

    Funny, last time I checked my brothers in life hurt just as much as my sisters.

    Any issues should be brought to the immediate attention of the staff and management of Turtle Glen Psychiatric Institute.

    Any and all who are deemed to pose a threat opon the mental health of the overall populace will be directed to the next soft cushion where snacks are served at 7:30 pm every evening following "Wheel Of Fortune".

    Voided37...with your permission, I would paste this post into the Men's Issues Forum for discussion if you would like....or you can paste it in and start a discussion on this.

    I honestly do not know if shyness is a fear of people....think sometimes it is a fear of us.

    We all crave acceptance be it from peers or those that we seek to be with as we either admire or respect them.

    I do know that some people though are so shy that it is crippling to them....they do not try to be with others as they freeze and the comfort level for them is unbearable to mix with others.

    I do not think it is a failure on your part, instead it is an issue that you express and that generally means that it is one that you have the desire to change.

    I think that shyness in us is when we do not feel confident in a situation or with a person or group of people. To overcome that means that usually we have to expose ourselves to those very situations and to come to the realization that we all bring something to a situation, discussion, a person or a group.

    I often feel we tend to be our own worst critic and that we will remember something we felt we should not of said for example for far longer than the person or group we said it to.

    Let me know if I have your permission to move this as I think that more might read and offer thoughts if it was not in this forum....your decision and one that I will respect. :)

    Lord knows I've tried my best over the years to save the world one disillusioned moran at a time with success few and far between (with the exception of my own son who resides in the basement).

    I've more or less thrown the key in the water bucket and now realize the only salvation is locked and loaded within the psyche of a very few sea turtles.

    My Grandmother Zella who passed in 1972 (God rest her rancid soul) would say when asked the time of day "Half passed the monkeys ass a quarter to his balls!"

    Her insite and wit has haunted me these many years and has resulted in a peculiar mind set of my own.
