Duggars By the Dozen - General Discussion - Part 7

[halcionne]

I totally agree with the first part. The kind that will excuse them for anything and everything they do.

Now that we know she's 22 and not 12, there's no excuse for how bad the grammar is. WHO IS TAKING ALL THE QUESTION MARKS HOSTAGE.

(see what I did there?)

I don't think Joy is wearing eyeliner in that picture, I think it's just mascara put on at an angle. It is pretty.

She could be tightlining. I just happened to discover this the other day: http://nymag.com/thecut/2013/11/gif-tut ... -eyes.html

So shall we take bets on how long until Jessa's engagement is announced? I'll put down a guess of next week sometime...

Yeah bet they are just waiting for Jill to finish up. If so, I'm truly dreading it. Dang I had NO idea just how popular the Duggars are. Jill and Derick are ALL over the internet tonight!

I'm highly annoyed, I watched the tlc.com video of before-the-wedding with michelle/jim-bob talking and derek/jill talking, and the only thing michelle says is "GRANDBABIES!! LOTS OF THEM!"

That's the only thing that matters in their world you get married to have sex and not sex for pleasure mind you sex primarily to have babies and lots of them.

I really worry that Jill will be doubly pressured into having a child right away due to her upbringing and Derick's mom being very sick and wanting to make sure she sees her first grandchild or at least knows one is on the way.

I think they'll allow Jill's wedding to bask in the glow for a bit longer. My bet is three weeks. Maybe two and a half. Did Miss Manners ever address how soon after a sibling's wedding it is appropriate to announce an engagement? Of course MM never would have anticipated 18 siblings...

Will the Duggars be having a summer season this year? If not I think we'll hear of either Jessa's engagement or Anna and Josh's baby ( if she is pregnant) in July or August before the season premier

I guess this would go here. From Susanna Keller's public facebook photos, an updated picture:

Other than eye color, d*mn that kid looks like her! Good for Susanna on having left fundiedom. Anyone know how she's doing?

[nellautumngirl]

Aw, Noelle is a cute kid. Her story always gives me hope, I mean she's the sister of Esther, Pris and Anna, you just need a good bullshit detector and bravery to leave your cult/family. I'm looking at you, Jordyn and Jenny.

I just hope JB isn't using her as an example of what happens when you leave the fold. Right now it seems the Duggar girls only have Amy and Susanna as "personal" examples of how things can go wrong in a relationship. To the rest of us it isn't a big deal. It's just regular life.

I was watching an old episode with Suz in it and I was jumping for joy at what is in her future.

I don't know if they care much what he has to say about it, they mostly seem to ignore his speeches, especially Jenny. That's the beauty if you try to indoctrinate 19 children, the youngest ones are bound to get less attention and discipline. As sad as it sounds, I think Jenny would only listen to the one person she loves and looks up to - Jill. Jordyn also seems to know that she can only rely on herself in her family, she seems to be very independent for a 5-year-old. I have high hopes for both of them :)

[ILoveJellybeans]

OMG those eyes. That baby is adorable!

[HereticHick]

I predict that news of Jessa's engagement will leak out, even if not officially announced, in July.

It's really sad how her parents shunned her. She's a very pretty woman. Her baby is adorable.

Not every married couple wants children. I wish fundie would understand this. Also sex is more than just creating babies. I hate the fact that Michelle is encouraging martial rape. Have sex whenever he wants to even if your tired, sick, tell him u don't feel like it, etc. you have to do it

[Coconut Flan]

Susanna's parents still see her.

I don't like what she said, but I actually don't think saying that amounts to encouraging marital rape. I don't even think it's bad advice to tell couples to make sex a priority, but she makes it all about the woman doing it as a service to the man. :ew:

My friend's brother announced his engagement like the day after she had a baby (this just happened, learned everything from Facebook). I feel like he had something planned ahead of time for the specific day he proposed, but what a dick move. Some people just gotta steal the spotlight. People are posting congratulations about his engagement on his wall, I really want to just say, "Congrats on becoming an uncle!"

DO IT!!!! :clap:

[Jasmar]

Who has that little trust in their partner?

In my experience, it seems to be a mutually-agreed upon decision. The thing I don't get, personally, is why it isn't completely obvious that any guy (or woman) who wants to mess around with porn, flirtatious, whatever, will just do it some other way.

[FloraKitty35]

I've always thought that Priscilla was an attractive woman in her own right. Smuganna could be if she stood up straight and wore properly fitting foundation garments.

[HarryPotterFan]

I did. He liked my post, I don't think he realized I was trolling him. I'm anxiously awaiting for the family to post baby pictures on Facebook.

DO IT!!!! :clap:
