Re: [QUAD-L] Touchy Topic
Sorry we lost a subscriber but I found nothing offensible bout referring to
male genitalia as the boys~
Thought it was a tastful way to address sexuality and quad life and made me
giggle !!
If something is disturbing I STOP reading and move on to somethin else!
We are here to share our experience strength and hope with each other. Please
don't stop doing that
When someone else shares it helps me to remember how lucky I am to have the
functionality that I have!!

Yeah, this is ridiculous, I mean there might be a lot of subjects some of us
wouldn't like to go in to, so you just delete those messages
and problem solved, sex might be one of the most important subjects for some
people here so why should they be restricted. There are
a lot of subjects that I don't relate to so I just don't read them, what's the
big deal???

It
would also be possible for us to have some sort of a code word or symbol to
include in the subject line (e.g. SEX) so that those who wanted to avoid the

[QUAD-L] Touchy Topic
Pardon the pun
in the subject line, but I was wondering how we might go about having a very
frank discussion about sexuality and SCI online.
I know that
some people on this list would be interested in the subject of sexuality
while
others would not, and might even find it offensive. We lost a subscriber
yesterday, I suspect because we got a bit too graphic about 'the boys.'
So, I'm thinking this is not the best place to discuss this topic. Maybe
there's a forum that already exists for the topic of SCI and sex?
Is it possible
to start a sub-list of people on here who wanted to have a candid discussion
about this topic, knowing that there is the probabilty of offensive language
or information in such a discussion? It's an important topic and
I'm guessing more than a few would be interested.
Any thoughts
[without getting graphic]?
Don.

My stool is hard and looks like little pebbles. I drink 3 maybe 4 bottles of water a day.? Probably not enough?? Was told by a nurse in the hospital S.C.I. patients need to limit water intake.? Now I am reading we need alot of water, which is it?? Usually in the evenings I get some results.? But that is not always the case. Sometimes it's in the afternoon.?

Was there? 3? months? and? was? discharged.? My husband could not cope with the role reversal. As a result? I am now? living with my mother and going through a nasty divorce.?
