Lori Alexander 10: Fickle Brained Woman (and she would know)


Recommended Posts

Reader:

Quote

My husband isn't as strict about watching certain shows as I am. Sometimes our son will ask his dad if he can watch a certain show that I would find to be not such a great choice, and he says it is o.k. What do you think about that, Lori?

Ken (who is NOT Lori) wastes no time in demonstrating that he is absolutely full of crap.

Does he tell her that she and her husband should discuss the matter like two adults, and come to an agreement on what in appropriate for their son?

Nope.  Not a chance:

Quote

I know Lori would say that she does not like any kids watching things they should not, but that Dad has to be won over to your views on the matter in a godly way, or you have to let your child watch what he permits it. Wait until your child sees something quite unchristian before asking him to reconsider his position on the matter. 

Alternatively, ask him if he will police what your children are viewing, and if and when it starts to cross the line, send them out of the room. 

The issue of marriage and family has many layers, and a husband, right or wrong about these grayer areas must be allowed to choose for the sake of an overall Biblical marriage. If not a wife's perceptions will always rule. Keep up healthy and joyful discussions with your husband and pray that the Lord will do the convicting in these areas.

Summary?

1) Don't discuss the issue with your husband until your child has seen something so grievous that a confrontation can no longer be avoided.  (You'll be totally calm, cool, and collected once that happens, which should make for a great discussion. :roll:

Then you may confront him, as you'll have something to hold over his head. Being passive aggressive is one of the keys to a happy marriage.

2)  The husband must get his way no matter what because Bible.  If the husband doesn't get his way, the wife will ALWAYS get her way...like Lori.  Because all husbands are 5 year olds who can't cope if they don't get exactly what they want, and all wives are shrews who always demand to have things their own way.
 

Husband wanting his way= Biblical

Wife wanting her way= rebellion which should be disciplined.

Great job Ken. Excellent advice. :pulling_hair:

Or, being that you're parents and the adults in the household, you could have a discussion about why Mom thinks it is inappropriate, and why Dad disagrees.  My daughter's father and I are divorced, and we still discuss what she is watching/reading/listening.

Wash, rinse, repeat...

Today is about being quiet. Other than the fact that "quietness" was a crucial tool in her quest to be completely unburdened by her children, I can't imagine what Lori knows about being quiet.  

The premise of her life's mission is that The God of the Universe has commanded her to talk to the internet all.day.long.

Quote

 I have listened to hardly any news for months and my life is better.

Translation:

Quote

I just plug my ears and say "la la la"!  Ignorance makes life so much easier!  

Quote

Stay out of malls since they shout at you too.

Translation:

Quote

I think I'll make up a totally random rule and see how many of my internet followers get on board.  Ahem, 

Lori 3:1-2  Thou shall stay out of malls, for the malls shout at you.

Thus saith the Lord Lori.

Quote

We are told to be quick to listen and slow to speak. Practice being a better listener. When people talk, listen to what they are saying and actually listen to them instead of trying to figure out what you are going to say next. When you want to argue with your husband or someone offends you and you want to fight back, bite your tongue and say nothing instead.

Example:  A reader writes to Lori and says the following

Quote

Such a great post. We definitely need more women to confidently walk in a Godly femininity who's spirits are full of peace, love and joy. We need to remember though that it's okay to be loud if that is part of the personality that God gave us. My husband has told me multiple times that what attracted him to me and still does is because I am a bit more loud (an extravert from Chicago)than other women and God has given me a spiritual type of toughness in order to do the things He has called me and gifted me to do. He was also attracted to the peacefulness of spirit that I walked in while being who God created me to be. I love being feminine but I also love being the warrior that God has created me to be.

Very nice comment.  Given the fact that Lori has written extensively on why her own personality (black and white, unemotional, unaffectionate) is A-okay with God, one might think that she will have a polite response to this reader.

Lori Alexander:

Quote

God calls women to have meek and quiet spirits. God describes prostitutes this way: "She is loud and stubborn; her feet abide not in her house" (Prov. 7:11). Godly women should strive to be quiet. 

That's right.  Lori's idea of being "slow to speak" is to essentially call one of her readers a prostitute.

Quote

Imagine how clean and tidy your home would be if your hands stayed busier than your mouth! (This includes writing on Facebook and twitter.) 

Well, Lori's hands definitely stay busier than her mouth.  After all, that delete key isn't going to press itself.  Not to mention that she has 2 Facebook pages to run, a private chat room, Twitter, 1 or 2 Instagram accounts, Pinterest, a blog, countless blogs she comments on.  Busy hands indeed.

Quote

Teach your children to be quiet when they get older

Lori accomplished this by forcing them to spend a few hours a day in their rooms.  Out of sight, out of mind.

Quote

If we cut out all of the negative and critical words from coming out of your mouths, you would most likely become quieter.

That's right.  If "we" cut all of the negative/critical words from coming out of your mouth, you would be quiet.  Not Lori (because she reserves the right to call her readers prostitutes), YOU.

Oh hell. I've read this entire thread and feel compelled to check out the FJ archives on this batshit woman. Some fetch the ferrets. This is my first new rabbit hole in a while. I'm a bit scared.

She's truly a terrifying woman. You'll have to take periodic breaks with this one. Good luck.

Oh Lori, when I'm having a bad day, her blog is JUST what I need. 

Of course women need to stay home and not have ads shout at them, that way they don't put more pressure on their husband.

Lori writes;

 

"I still have to be very careful with my neck.  I can't lift heavy things or I suffer, but overall I am so much better that I have been in many years.  In fact, my children didn't even know my true personality until I got better.  They didn't know I was a happy, talkative person like I am today!  All they knew was a mother in a lot of pain...But God is so good.  He has definitely restored the years that the locusts have eaten."

If the Lori we see today is a happy, talkative person, I sure don't want to think about what she was like back then!

 

Friends, you just don't know the kind of happiness that having  a righteous,  judgmental, self-congratulatory blog can give you.

Thanks for this! I was up late reading it. Back to it this morning. :popcorn2: 

It's a bucket of crazy hilarity! I just wish it was a joke:my_confused:

ETA @Koala, I just got to the part when Ken confronted you for saying that back in the Bible times, his daughter might have been called a "hor" for dancing! :laughing-rolling: HOR :laughing-rollingred::laughing-rofl:

Hoooooly shit. This woman is batshit. The marriage is probably the worst we discuss here. Worse than Stevehovah and Terified, even. Stevie boy hasn't treated Teri all that well, but there does seem to be love there. They don't make constant pass agg jabs at each other.

I have to be fair and say Lori's post today was not too bad.  Everyone knows she is going to beat the SAHM horse to death. This post, though, did not come across insulting or negative. As much as it kills me to admit this, the last paragraph was even encouraging for those moms at home.  Really can't snark on this one.

One of the comments really rubbed me the wrong way though. Someone said parents should not waste their hard earned money sending their daughters to college. Are you for real right now?  

Not all women get married and start having babies at 20.  Even if a woman ends up being a SAHM, how is she supposed to support herself while waiting on Prince Charming if he doesn't show up until she is nearly 30?  Or what if she never marries?  I can think of 2 women I know in their 40's who have never been married and another who did not get married until 36.   

Lori preaches that women are to marry and bear children (Ok, That is in the Bible).  However, it takes 2 people to get married and make a baby.  Traditionally, women are in the position of waiting on the man to propose. Maybe Lori needs to have Ken preach to the young men to commit.

This, to me, is one of the most dangerous beliefs that fundies (not all, but many) have.

They really cripple their daughters (intentionally?) by not allowing them to have more than a very basic education.

It's the women's fault for having sex with them before marrying them. If they're getting sex already why would they marry? Obviously sex is the onlyreason to get married.

You have a point.  Although my comment was not directed at those who have premarital sex. One of the women I was referring to has never even had a boyfriend. I don't think she has even been on a date, so that is not the issue for her.

In today's post, Lori out-and-out lies. The surgeon in the post did not become a stay-at-home mother. She stopped doing surgery and teaches at Harvard Medical School instead. She took an easier and less stressful job, that's all. The author even identifies herself as "Medical Doctor" after her byline. Not as "Stay at home Mommy" but as "Medical Doctor."

Sad that Lori needs to make stuff up to make her point.

Is she deliberately lying, or did she just not read carefully? The title refers to being a stay-at-home mom, and that is the impression I had from the article, until reading the biographical info at the end. (Of course, most people would read the entire piece before writing about it, but this is Lori.)

It sounds like this woman's career was  extremely demanding with very long hours, and she was financially able to go to more flexible, part-time work in order to spend more time with her kids, which is great.  Unfortunately, she still isn't meeting Lori's standards of 1) no job, no how, no way and 2) being at home 24/7.

I agree with you on Stevehovah/Terrified vs. Ken/Lori. For the past couple of years, I have thought Ken and Lori are much worse than Steve M. I can't see Steve M. having some of the fucked up views as Ken and Lori regarding incest.

Lori's blog is a bore now.  That said, one of her readers tossed out an idea for women who are looking to fill their days once their children are grown:

Quote

"But what will you do all day?" She asked. Do? Do? Oh, maybe cut the grass more for my husband, learn to make even better meals, cook some sinners for new moms in our church.... 

:pb_lol: I know it was a typo, but I almost fell out of my chair.

I wouldn't eat a Big Salad Lori made. You just know she made it in ten minutes or less, and the dressing... probably healthy healthy lube coconut oil.

      I love baseball but I'm dreading the new season because the White Sox ownership is THE FUCKING WORST. I watched Dominican League Baseball (Lidom!) over the winter and fell in love with their joy, spirit, and exuberance. The broadcasts were in Spanish and my Spanish is pretty weak but I loved catching phrases and repeating them. Bombe! I'm sad about MLB and Commissioner Idiota's busywork rules. But I love baseball, always and forever.
      I guess I don't have a point. Just bitching. Te amo mucho, Lidom!

      Feeling ragey this morning. I have a doctor's appointment this afternoon in the hope of getting help for an ongoing injury. I went to a (different!!) doctor late last year who completely blew me off. He wouldn't do diagnostic testin, he refused to send me to a specialist, and he just told me to "take it easy" and "take ibuprofen." I'm hopeful for today's appointment but I'm also feeling a SEVERE amount of rage at that doctor from last year!

      Well, the rash is back with a vengeance. It never completely cleared up. I saw the derm yesterday and they did another swab and yup, raging infection again, still? It is definitely strep skin infection. I am getting so damn tired and run down from this. Who the f would immagine being hospitalized freaking TWICE for a rash?

      My niece is going to be a seat filler at this year's Academy Awards.  Seat fillers are asked to wear tuxedos regardless of sex/gender.  If you see a pretty young woman with very curly hair, it could be my niece.
