A Christian Woman Asks For Readers' Support

I am a Christian woman who gives my life to God and my husband as his sixth wife in a polygamous marriage. I need your readers' support to pass laws for all wives to have equal protection under law. It is wrong that I have no legal rights in the marriage (health benefits, tax deductions, family discounts), because God loves us all equally.

Dear Wife, I will print your request on my blog, but you want legal change; this blog is not a legal forum. Nor is it religious. The Establishment Clause of the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution is the guiding principle of "separation of church and state." You entered into, and accepted your "marriage" with your god, your husband, and his wives, knowing you had no legal standing. Why are you no longer accepting of your choices? -SQ  

Dating Like An Aventurer

Dear Suze Q. I love treasure hunts, but I was terrified of dating in my 60s. My bffs told me to imagine I’m at a swap meet or auction looking for the special gem that’s my forever partner. It’s working!

Dear Adventurer, The thrill of the hunt, the sly smile when you spot a nugget, the excitement wondering where it will fit in your life. Savor interviewing the candidates for your Prince(ss) Charming! -SQ

My Doctor Says…

Dear S.Q. My doctor says my stress levels are too high and I need to change my lifestyle. Where do I start other than get more exercise?

Dear Stressed, Have your MD create a personal action plan for you. Do your homework -the internet has a plethora of ideas. Take the Holmes and Rahe Stress Scale (on-line) for a baseline of your stressors from the prior year to assess your risk for the near future. (Ex: death of spouse = 100 points; divorce = 73. 300+ points = high risk of 🡻 health). -SQ

Matrix Hand Shake = Misogyny - ☠️ Warning

Dear Suze, I loved Louis Theroux’s Netflix, “Inside the Manosphere” documentary beginning with a 20-nothing-year-old “influencer,” who got fame from his work-out programs, and private-view sex acts.  His shock-and-awe height of disgust was when he said his mom would be upset, BUT if he had a gay son, he’d disown him. Several other young, putrid, rich male assholes hyped the “manosphere” (ultra-masculine world dominance) surrounded by worshipping, less-intelligent-than-them, beautiful-yet-childlike, submissive women selling-their-soul for the limelight. I love men, but not this breed.

Dear Disgusted. I urge others to watch this well-balanced, honest documentary and hope society self-corrects. All the men interviewed had a massively unstable childhood that shapes one’s personality. As men, they have an amazing lack of humanity and superficial bond to return to caveman thinking of old. Beware of poisonous ☠️ men displaying the triangle hand signal, called the “matrix.” -SQ

My Gay Friend Hit On My Husband

Dear Suze Q. My gay friend recently met my husband and asked him, behind my back, if he’d be interested in getting together without me. When my husband turned him down flat, my “friend” suggested they keep the conversation from me.

Dear Excluded,  The issue isn’t gay or straight but that your “friend” isn’t one. A friend would have asked if YOU were interested in loaning him your husband, or a 3-way, rather than come-on to your husband secretly.  You've been betrayed so swipe left, no explanation needed. Don’t bother to let them apologize; their actions said it all. -SQ

Earlybirds Club

Dear S.Q.  A shout out to this cool club in Dallas. The queue was around the corner with mostly women and we had a blast bar-hopping like in our youth with music of the 60s, 70s, 80s.

Dear Earlybird. The 2024 founders of the Earlybirds Club were two high school buddies who sparked this concept to a roaring success as “a dance party for ladies who have sh*t to do in the morning… inspired by the bygone nights spent clubbing with your girlfriends.” 6-10 p.m. with a D.J., for “especially women, trans, and binary folks… without the late-night drama, judgment, or creeps.” Dozens of cities, 3 continents! -SQ

Are You Complete Or Looking For Someone To Complete You?

Dear Suze, I date a variety of women, but none make me want to keep them.

Dear Dater, Is it them that aren’t keepers, or is it you? Are you looking for conquests, or compliments, or a trophy on your mantle? If you’re not comfortable being alone, no one can fill you up. Love yourself, then see the world through the eyes of a happy person, and date as a giver not a taker. -SQ
