Someone who is not a Witness has very little credibility in commenting on Witnesses. You can see from this column that everything is taken from Watchtower literature about women within Jehovah’s Witnesses. As for your children, I hope they don’t fall prey to any of the child molesters within the ranks of the Kingdom Hall.

Funny site; must have been built by shunned apostates, I am not a witness. But my wife is baptized and my 3 children all are studying. My wife planned our wedding reception, and she plans her trips and girl days. as well as gatherings for the kids.
My in-laws are all witnesses. I’ve been married 3 times previous. These statements sound like angry rantings from punished children who chose not to obey the rules of Gods Law.

Snarky but so accurate! She really is just a consultant at best and a child at most when it comes to JW marriages.

I suppose it’s just good training for the rest of the marriage. Why give the woman the illusion of haivng a say in anything? Sorry… was that snarky?

In reality, I don’t think it alway goes according to the way WT lays it out. I knew plenty of JW women who planned stuff. I planned mine with a few other sisters. But, on a limited income (age 18, no college, restaurant job) there wasn’t much to plan. Most receptions I went to, including my own, were potluck style with everyone pitching in at a school gym or something similar. I’m not saying that’s a totally horrible way to do it, but it’s not a “queen for a day” scenario by any stretch of the imagination.

Indeed it is worth it, and I can’t thank you enough for the hard effort you put into this website. I’ll be sure to contribute with spreading the word around my city about this website! This is all worth it in the end.

Thank you. I hope the men appreciate the humor; I don’t mean to offend.

“the last thing I would want at a formal event is a six-foot long meatball sub to eat and no chairs to sit on.” LOL! Don’t forget the large-screen TV and the football game! Love your articles, Alex.
