Tonight, I noticed that there is this one user whose name is jasonsgirl38 and it got me thinking. Identity crisis much??? I mean seriously is that the best you could come up with. No wonder so many women are so co-dependent and remain in completely fucked up relationships. We have no identity other than what a man brings us??? I am sure that this person didn't intentionally mean that when she signed up for Weight Watchers but I think this subconsciously says a lot and I don't think by any stretch that she is alone in her low self esteem. I know she isn't because, Hi I'm pot, nice to meet you kettle.
So, can we all agree to at least try and pick a user name that signifies who WE are, not who we belong to. Like we are chattel or property. That went out a long time ago.
Of course, if Sara Palin becomes VP then who knows, maybe all that is old will be new again. For now, however, I think it's time that we women stopped being our own worst enemies.
But who am I to talk. My yahoo id is ajflfan. As in an Alan Jackson fan. As in...never mind, that's another blog.

Holly posed this question on time on the boards: why would you make your name something like GraciesMommy? Is that all there is to you? The responses she got were more along the lines of, "Is golfing all there is to you?"
Touche (with the accent over the e).
That is one of my biggest pet (internet) peeves.
