    What a sexist thread,

    Do elaborate, crazyguy. :)

    Do you think we're being anti-man? Cos I think the thread is quite self deprecating towards women, really. We know we're being silly.

    Or do you mean it's sexist to wait for the man to propose, and not do it ourselves?

  • I too am confused by crazyguy's post; how have we offended you crazyguy?? We want to know...

    By the way, if you're going to imply in your signature that everyone else, or at least everyone who doesn't share your opinion in everything, is stupid, you may want to learn the difference between "your" and "you're". ;)

    The right to express an opinion does not override the responsibility to show respect. :)

    I was only joking, and as for my signature I know its wrong and thats how I wrote it on purpose to see how many would notice.

    Did you do the commas instead of full stops on purpose too...?

    Anyway, glad you were joking.

    We were on the cusp of being engaged before I found out about baby! In my head I guess we still are but I'm reluctant to go forward with it now as A. I don't want to be a pregnant bride and B. I don't want it to seem we're getting married or engaged because I am pregnant, how very 1920's.

    I have a lot of ideas about what I'd like, but it's on the back burner for now, at least.
    The frontier is never somewhere else. And no stockades can keep the midnight out.

    Im got engaged in January and whilst I cant wait for my fiance to become my husband, I can honestly think of nothing worse than organising a wedding so if anyone wants to practice by organising mine, feel free! :)
