Mods, do you think there could be a folder or thread dedicated to educating people about Lori, a respository for all the screencaps we've caught? If only one abused wife saw it, and stopped feeling badly about failing to win her husband without a word, it would be time well spent.

So there is the tumblr listed above and as Curious stated members here may start a blog which could be used to hold them.  Also they won't disappear from these threads either.

 a man’s job is so much apart of his life and from it comes the blessings to the family. So a husband must be able to make this important decision for his life, 

Aren't they all about how a woman's one and only acceptable job is super-important and how it blesses the family? Shouldn't a wife be able to make a decision about this job too?  

A married person can make decisions for him/herself and his/her life, but these decisions shouldn't be unilateral when they affect the rest of the family. 

Quote

Imagine going to a job you do not enjoy every day for 9-10 hours when you could have been in one you do enjoy and is advancing your career.

Welcome to the reality of many women  who share your worldview.  Nobody asks them if they want to do what they are doing or if it advances their career. 

Quote

many do go back home in a year or two, right back to the same job but with higher pay because they missed him.

So, uproot them twice, I guess.... 

See, if this decision is made as a couple, I have no problem whatsoever. It's this notion that husband is leader and should therefore decide where the family should live, when they should move, etc.. that really bothers me. If you want to be free to pursue your career unencumbered, don't get married. 

ETA: in all this, he didn't mention prayer or Jesus even once.

They can't be in too many places. More the better. I do think another site specific with Lori's name in it would be good too.

I am overwhelmed sifting through the ones I captured yesterday to get them up. 

Wow, how'd you do that? <deeply respectful pause> I've sent you my screenshot. I'll look for others in the future.

I don't know if this counts, but I saw this on their son's facebook page this morning. Their son, Ryan, is posing with his wife in some vacation spot. His wife is very pretty, and Ken points this out (Ryan is also in the picture, but Ken does not comment on his appearance).

Lori Alexander Beautiful!

Ken Alexander Gorgeous... the girl and the background!

I don't know. . . is it creepy? It's just not something my own husband would say. To comment on your daughter-in-law? My own hubby would probably say, "Hope you are having fun on vacation!" He would never, ever comment on a young female relative's appearance, especially not a young woman 30 years his junior--who is married to his son! But maybe I'm overreacting?

[lawfulevil]

Nope, that's super fucking creepy! Trump-level creepy. I'd never comment on the appearance/attractiveness of ANY of my relatives or their significant others... unless they're like "Aren't I lucky?" and then, sure, "Yep, you sure are!"

[EowynW]

Well now we know where he's getting some of his ideas about women. Funny how Lori's views mesh perfectly with twisted asshole men.

[Bad Wolf]

I've commented on DIL's appearance from time to time. Tell her how nice she looks, or that color really suits her, etc. Is that creepy? I'm her MIL, not FIL.

ETA Lori really creeps me out. Will somebody please send the rescue ferrets?

Ugh! I so wouldn’t have much time for a woman like that. Just their house being a mess would speak volumes. Messy house often means a messy life and a messy mind. Combined with messy emotions.

The loveliest, most Christ-like woman I know has the messiest house I have ever seen. Honestly, you can’t even see the floor most of the time. It is an absolute tip. But she is the kindest, sweetest, most generous, loving woman you could ever encounter. She is the mother of 5 incredible girls, is always encouraging to everyone, and is truly one of the most beautiful-spirited people I know. I have never heard her say a bad word about anyone, and she always has time for others. Christ’s light shines forth brightly from her.
Please don’t “judge a book by its cover” as the saying goes

Firstly, do you see her behind closed doors? And secondly, why is her house a mess? If she always has time for everyone else. But her home is suffering, there is something amiss.

Because godly women have to argue. Do we see Lori behind closed doors?

[Joyce]

First, here's a funny post from Lori on FB chatroom:

Quote

I found a great way to get the smell out of Norwex cloths! Rinse them in hot water and then lay them out on your grass in the sun to dry! No smell!

Next, Lori has a comment on abuse on the chatrrom:

Quote

There is no "out" for abuse, Paula, and women will use many things and label them "abuse" and they are not, such as "He expected me to keep my home clean" and things of this nature or he called me names but never giving us any clue how she treated him. No, it's not biblical grounds for divorce. If a husband is actually physically abusing a wife, she must seek protection and be separated from him but it's still not biblical grounds for divorce.

Wives can separate but not divorce. Got it, Aunt Lori.

I'd like to invite Lori to visit the Philippines where there is no divorce unless you're a Muslim. She can also visit the Vatican.

Even though citizens in the Philippines cannot divorce, the state recognizes a foreign divorce, so a spouse is free to remarry if they are divorced.

You know, as much as we snark on the chicken juice, I was sure Lori washed her Norwex cloths at least once in awhile. Threw them in the machine with the rest of the towels and stuff, adding the right amount of Tide to get everything fresh and clean. 

But now we know for sure. She doesn't. She NEVER washes them. EVER.  

Excuse me while I lose my dinner.

Does anyone here think that if Ken were physically abusive, addicted to porn and a serial adulterer that Lori would endure all things, suffer in silence, and try to win him without a word?

Anyone?  Anyone/? Bueller? Nah. me neither.

She'd be at that divorce lawyer's office so fast. CA is a community property state after all. She'd be working so hard to get her 50% or more of Ken's assets.

Think of the peace and quiet she'd have, Never having to bring Ken lemonade at the appointed time, No more forcing herself to have 5 minutes  and some lube sex every day.  The entire day free in order to monitor all her social media and write blog posts about "Ben" a truly awful husband who so cruelly mistreated, abused, and cheated on his godly Christian perfect wife "Tori" until to save her sanity she had to divorce him.

Oh how tragic.

I seem to recall hearing a story of a man who preached against wearing jewelry, and a person present grabbed a woman's hand, which happened to be bearing several rings, and asked the man what he thought of that.  Instead of verbally ripping her a new one for wearing jewelry he simply commented that she had a beautiful hand.  But I suppose Aunt Lori knows better than John Wesley.  

[usmcmom]

Of course Ken commented on his daughter-in-law's beauty. She's wearing a low cut dress that Lori would call slutty on anybody else. Ken has an eye for pretty young women in skimpy clothes. He has made a comment about Emily in the past - something in regards to a link she shared about arranged marriages.  He commented on the benefits of choosing a lovely bride "like you, Emily."  

And yes, I think it is terribly creepy of Ken to comment on her appearance. I would have said something like "You both look great!"  

I have always thought that Ken gave off a predatory vibe, especially in photos that include Emily. I think he probably barely refrains from crossing the line with any pretty young woman and relatives are not exempt. 

[Joyce]

We usually wash our cleaning cloths before and after we wipe the table or any surface we clean. They're not Norwex, but at least they do not smell.

Maybe Aunt got into submission because she has an illness that requires Uncle's money or health insurance, and she does not want to look bad with a divorce.

Just found these comments by Lori on the beach post on FB chatroom:

"I don't like it but he LOVES the beach and walking on it so I go with him and enjoy it."

"it's not my job to keep him from sin. It's my job to follow his lead!"

"I told Ken that I may spank him with the paddle if he looks at those women!"

I can't post the screenshots yet because there are comments by other women.

This has crossed my mind before. Lori knows that without Ken's money and insurance she would be in difficult situation had there been a divorce. I think if Ken had left Lori years ago and let's say when the kids were still at home, Lori would have fallen on her face. She would have been like Super Catholic Abigail who takes frequent help from upper middle class parents.

I don't know about the physically abusive part, but I think Lori would totally stay with Ken in the other two instances.  I have often thought that is why she stands so firm on those things - because she has endured them. If she can endure them, everyone should endure them. I think the physical abuse issue is off her radar becaus it has NOT happened to her, therefore she has absolutely no reference point for it and cannot comprehend that many woman are suffering from physical abuse. 

Ken's dismissive attitude about porn always raised a red flag for me. Also, the way they both claimed the woman's anger about it was more sinful than the man's actual viewing of it has always seemed...off. Ken has found a way to justify it and Lori has found a way to make herself a martyr over it, in my opinion. 

As far as infidelity, I think he displays many behaviors that suggest he would easily stray , if he has not already done so. If not, then shame on him for giving himself the appearance of an unfaithful husband. He has certainly not avoided the appearance of evil, as the Bible tells us to do.

I don't think that's creepy. It is different coming from the MIL, and also telling someone they look nice or their blouse is pretty is different than being like "Damn girl, you sexy."

[Hane]

@usmcmom, definitely! Ken is the kind of guy who thinks it's of paramount importance to let everyone know what does and does not make him horny.  It's a case of smoke definitely indicating fire. Remember when he whined about his female staff members not flirting with him? (A: It's inappropriate workplace behavior and B: You ain't all that, Ken, you skeevy so-and-so.)

[Red Hair, Black Dress]

I agree that Ken gives off a predatory vibe in photos.  For me it's that 70s porn-stache that makes him look like he's leering.  Or maybe he is leering and the 'stache just accentuates it.

Not that Ken should be looking all bug-eyed at young tanned throng clad booties on the beach.

But........ we've all seen Lori's wrinkled, age-spotted, dry -skinned, sun-damaged, 87 year-old woman arms and legs. I think Ken just wants to see some young flesh.  Not an excuse, but a distinct possibility.

Her theology is from the pit of hell. Nowhere does it say in the Bible that women rescue their husbands from their sin. You lie, foolish woman. 

The verse she quotes doesn't say what she says it says. It says in regards to an unbelieving husband, a believing wife can win him without a word. That means not preaching to him, but essentially showing him the way to Christ through her actions and behavior, not words. There's NOTHING that says she can change an abusive husband or a mean husband or an uncaring husband or an adulterous husband. NOTHING says she can MAKE him stop sinner or become saved. This one seems super obvious, so I am baffled as to where she reads that wives are responsible for their husband's souls. No one is responsible for anyone else's souls in the Bible. I read the book cover to cover and can't recall that anymore. I have done some Google heavy searches to be sure and apparently all the Bibles on the internet are as confused as me on this. 

Also she says to 1 Peter 3 1-6 and ignores what immediately follows, did KJV: 

7-8: "Likewise, ye husbands, dwell with them according to knowledge, giving honour unto the wife, as unto the weaker vessel, and as being heirs together of the grace of life; that your prayers be not hindered. Finally, be ye all of one mind, having compassion one of another, love as brethren, be pitiful, be courteous"

But of course those don't jive with Loony Lori's "opinions", so cannot be mentioned. It literally says for husbands to confer with their wives and give honor as such the wives give to him. Also says "heirs together", and that husband and wife are of ONE mind and are to have compassion to one another and be kind and courteous. Since husbands caring for wives and considering them in any matter as together with husbands is not what Loony Lori thinks it should be, she will cut it out and make it sound her way dammit!

Sure. Let me think what would be the best way.  Maybe a gallery would be good if we only want it to contain images that can be scrolled through?

That's fucking disgusting. I use rags for a fair amount of cleaning, and that shit gets washed on sanitary cycle. 

[Koala]

Wait a min., so she rinses her dirty rags in plain water and then puts them outside on the ground to get them clean? 

Soooo nasty.  Use the damn washing machine, woman!  Lord, I bet her house smells.

From the Wonder Woman post:

Considering that Wonder Woman has strong male and female characters, this goes against your point. Perhaps it would be wise to see the movie before you make a claim against it.

Sorry reader, that's not how Lori rolls.  She does things "God's ways".  That means she only critiques things/people she knows nothing about.  Ignorance= godliness in Lori Land.  

"Anyways", it's not like she's actually seen the movie.  Gah.  Don't you people know anything?  It just makes sense to make claims first, and ask questions later.  Or better yet, never ask questions, and just sit back and watch as your readers rip someone/something to shreds because of your lies!

Another reader chimes in:

But zero-sum games are so much more rewarding, especially if you control the narrative. 

This reader gets it.  Lori wouldn't have near as much fun critiquing new movies if she had to watch them, and base her doodles in fact.  

It's much more holy to just make things up and present them as if they rode in on The Horse of TRUTH!

Oh, hell.  I think whatever I used wasn't a quote box.  Sigh....so sorry, mods.  I am going to try to fix it.

Okay, fixed.  Can someone clue me in on where the quote box lives these days?

I was busy over the past few days with a family event and I only saw the picture of Lori's legs awhile ago. As other FJers have said she doesn't have good skin and her constant sun exposure without sunscreen is to blame.  We know Lori and Ken obsess over weight in regards to beauty. I wonder if Ken secretly wishes Lori better care of her skin. My mom will be turning 67 in September and her skin looks much better than Lori's. I know other women in the age range of 55-70 who also look better than Lori. I'm willing to bet that Ken sees many women around the same age as Lori who have better skin and are aging well. It might piss him off that other men around his age have wives who look good for their ages.

@Koala, I grabbed that exchange just in case.
