Lori Alexander 44: Ken Galloping Off on the Horse of Truth The Feminists Are Coming!

[Curious]

Lori can take her sanctimonious anti-medication stance and shove it up her uninformed ass.

As someone that takes a small pharmacy every day, I will unequivocally state that yes, you should do your research.  I've had meds that have done bad things to me.  When that has happened, I have talked to my dr. about it and we have found alternatives with the exception of one med that is used for narcolepsy (not why I was taking it).  All meds of that particular type have the same main ingredient, which happens to be one that I developed a serious sensitivity to (like call the FDA about it serious).

When I was hallucinating and not lucid enough to figure out what med was causing my hallicunations, my husband did research, figured it out and worked with my dr. to switch me to something else, which stopped the hallucations.

Lori makes it sound like it's either suffer side effects that are BAD or do nothing.  There is a whole lot of middle ground in there.

Some side effects you learn to live with because the benefit outweighs the side effect(s).  Sometimes it's not worth it (medication related diabetes).  Your dr. will work with you to figure out what works.   Yes, it might take some time and medication adjustments (thyroid is often a real bitch to get right), but once you get it right it improves your quality of life.

I could live without pain medication.  I did that for many, many years.  However, my quality of life was shit.  I was always grouchy because I was in so much pain all the time.  I couldn't laugh without it causing extreme pain, ffs.   I was often in bed for days at a time because I just couldn't deal with the pain of getting up.   Now the only time I am stuck in bed is if I have skin breakdowns that need offloading (pressure sores).

TL;DR:  Fuck Lori and her uneducated, dangerous, positions on pretty much everything.

I think it's interesting that whenever Lori writes about wives denying their husbands. . . she gets lots of posts from women whose husband don't want sex, or who don't want it enough, or whatever.

Perhaps this "women denying husbands" problem is not so widespread as Lori seems to think? 

NONE of the problems Lazy Lori posts about are as widespread as she thinks. It is so easy to determine her traits from her writings. 

LORI was an overbearing and difficult wife. Ergo, all women are overbearing and difficult. 

LORI was a lazy homemaker, spending idle hours gossiping about neighbors and other acquaintances. Ergo, all women are lazy gossips. 

LORI undoubtedly denied Ken sex. Ergo, all women deny their husbands sex. 

And so on.  She is such a pill.

Yay!  Lori's cookies prevent colon cancer!!  

Per usual, she's posting about food (this time cookies).  It never seems to be far from her mind, and she likes to pretend that even the sweets they eat have special healing powers, and are far superior to us and our sorry Chips Ahoy.

Naturally, she doesn't use regular choc. chips.  NO, those contain sugar, and sugar is a no no.  Did you know that one of Lori's sons grew up thinking that consuming sugar was a sin? *giggle*  He did!  Now wasn't Lori an awesome mom?!

But back to Lori's cancer preventing cookies:

Quote

I prefer my healthy chocolate which is full of coconut oil. (I just read that coconut oil prevents colon cancer!)

Now I am no doctor, but I can't find one single credible article linking coconut oil to the prevention of colon cancer.  Could I be wrong?  Absolutely, but I would like to see her cite a source when she's trotting out information like that.  

She says she read it somewhere, but where?  In an article written by the guy selling coconut oil, or in a medical journal?  Cite your dang sources, Lori!

Ignorant reader:

Quote

In the end the only cure for depression and anxiety is Jesus!

This is the kind of comment Lori should be deleting.  It's dangerous, and it gets people who desperately need medication back off of it (or prevents them from ever getting it in the first place).

Did Lori delete it?  Of course not.  No, she chimed right in and agreed:

Quote

He tells us He gives us a sound mind but we only get this if we are filling our minds with His Word, renewing our minds with truth, and taking every thought captive to the obedience of Christ.

That's right, blame the person suffering with depression/anxiety.  IF they were filling their minds with assorted Bible shit, they wouldn't be depressed or anxious in the first place.  

Then they all go back to beating their favorite dead horse: Jesus Calling. 

Quote

 I don't read any *Jesus Calling* devotions either.

Quote

 yes, stay away from Jesus Calling!

Oh, definitely!  Wouldn't want to have anything to do with Jesus!  Sarah Young should have called her book Paul Calling.  She'd have gotten a completely different response from Lori.  After all, Jesus was wrong, right Ken?

In any case, I'd say the person to stay away from is the one telling depressed people that it's their own fault their depressed, and that they need a Bible instead of medication.

Lori's stupid fangirls want to avoid any adult responsibility and functionally remain as children. What lazy bitches. My people died to be able to exercise the right to vote and I will never cede that to anybody. Should unmarried women not vote too? Fucking Gilead here. If you are bereft of intellect and want to be a moronic yes person to your husband, have at it. But to expect all women to be like that is just ridiculous. That's the frightening thing with Lori and her ilk, they insist everyone live like them. It would be funny if some of these husbands leave these Stepford wives because they don't want a boring irresponsible child-wife. 

I thought about Lori while watching the premier of The Handmaids Tale season two last night. Aunt Lydia is Lori, a smug, sanctimonious sadist who enjoys hurting women in the name of God.

Actually, one of the fangirls (I forget her name. Joy?) did have her husband leave her for an educated woman with a job. Now he and the new wife travel and go out all the time.

Interestingly, just as we start discussing anxiety and medications, Lori posts this:

And she allegedly doesn't read here...

I just want to say thanks to all of you for your thoughts on the anxiety issue.  You're a helpful, compassionate bunch of people, a sharp contrast with Lori's cold, uncaring attitude.

Ken's back in the comments:

Quote

It takes only 5-10 minutes a day, or every other day, for a wife to please her man with or without intercourse. 

5 minutes.  Good.God.

[feministxtian]

He sounds like my X...7 minutes including "foreplay"...but then again, he'd agree with Kenny-boy on damn near everything.

I called him out about that and others did too on the 2.0 page. He ignored all of us.

A man who cares about his significant other wants to make sure they are pleased. Ken is such a pig!

[Destiny]

I mean, if you are doing it right it takes way more than 5 min. I feel like they don’t know how to do this and someone needs to sit them down and explain the whole thing to them again.

This is an interesting catch of how Lori may be copying other. 

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/nolongerquivering/2018/04/the-source-of-lori-alexanders-recent-modesty-articles/

I wonder if someone has contacted David C. Cooke regarding Lori. I would love for someone to call her out in a very public way of lifting/copying material.

 OK FJ-ers, I think we need to re-name Lazy Lori "Lazy Lying Lori"  I absolutely know she's said before that she and Ken decided at 45 to have more bay-beez but the Lord just didn't bless them.  

In her "Christians Got to Have Sex All the Time" blog post she says " My body was forced into early menopause at the age of 45 years old because of brain surgery that injured my pituitary." (i the comments)

So which was it Lori --  God didn't bless you with more bay-beez  even though you wanted them or menopause intervened?  Or... maybe just maybe ....you went around spouting about hoping for more children knowing full well you were in menopause and it was practically impossible.

Yeah that's what I thought you did

You are so right!  I think she just said it recently...maybe in Instagram.  Going to find it now.  We need a side by side of this one.

It's in my pdf Rachelle evidence doc.

Okay, so I know she said it very recently, but here she is in 2012:

Lori Alexander:

Quote

Years later, we decided we did want God to bless us with more children if He wanted, but I was 45 years old at that time.

Today:

Quote

My body was forced into early menopause at the age of 45 years old

What a coincidence!  She trusted God for more children after she went through menopause!

Still looking for the other quote...she just recently said it again.  Great catch @Red Hair, Black Dress

Where can I find that?  If we can get a screenshot, we need to get it, a screenshot of her 2012 assertion (which can be found here: http://lorialexander.blogspot.com/2012/03/birth-control-options.html ), and a copy of today's comment to Tiny Tim.

Clinical anxiety is not simply a lack of mental discipline.

Lori is uneducated. That's just a fact. She is also a control freak. She recently told one woman that she wanted to sob during certain movie but she controlled herself. That' the word she used. "Control." Who cares if you cry during a sad movie? That can be cathartic. Her poor mother is also sick. I think it would be more normal to cry than not, but her issue is control at all costs. If she can't control those around her then she will control unknown women online.

Here are the first two.  I want to find the more recent one.  Seems like it couldn't have been more than a couple of weeks ago.

Oh my word! Did Lori just empathize with a woman? Did she say she was sorry Rachel was going through this and would pray she would find support?  

I'm speechless.

 

Dollars to doughnuts Lori didn't write this response. Kenny boy wants us to see that she isn't a cold heartless bitch.

Lori needs a vibrator.  But no because that's a MAJOR sin!

[SilverBeach]

These folks and their 5-10 minute sex! Eff that noise. An occasional quickie, sure, but as a steady diet? Hell no. It doesn't seem like any of them really know how to make love, and it sounds like the husbands are just going to the bathroom on their wives. I feel sorry for these women, not Lori though.

I noticed she took a jab at anxiety medications.  I am going to chime in from a personal standpoint (which I don't usually do).

For many years I have battled absolutely hellish anxiety.  The irony, is that because of the anxiety, I was always too afraid to ask my doctors about medication.

In a bizarre twist, I had an allergic reaction.  To keep things under control until my allergy tests are complete, my doctor put me on a medication that just so happens to treat itching....and anxiety.  Crazy.  

It changed.my.life.  Not being consumed with worry is like nothing I've ever experienced before.  There are no words for how much better I feel.  

I have made my doctor aware of the unexpected side effect of this medication, and she's very pleased that I've had such positive results.  It turns out many doctors prescribe it to treat anxiety.  

In any case, DO NOT LISTEN TO LORI.  If you are suffering, ask your doctor for help.  I promise you, it has changed my life for the better.  

I am very uncomfortable sharing this, but I am more uncomfortable thinking of another woman on the brink of asking for help, being frightened away by Lori's fear mongering. *now posting it quick, before I change my mind*

I am lucky in that I don't have a lot of anxiety.  Most of my anxiety revolves around my asthma, and manifests itself when I have an asthma attack.  However,  I do have depression.  Bad.  I take meds for it.  Something I never understood, why is it okay to take daily meds for diabetes or high blood pressure or whatever, but not it's not okay to take meds for a disease that affects the brain?   Please, anyone with anxiety or depression, don't be ashamed to take meds if they are needed!!

Thank you for sharing Koala!

A book I love is Hold Me Tight by Dr. Sue Johnson. Lori would probably hate her because the kinda of love Johnson describes takes effort.  I love the concept of being a safe place for the one's significant other. When that safe place is disrupted intimacy can be hard and sex often isn't wise because people can feel used. 

Me thinks Ken got his sex ed from porn as so many guys seem to do. 5 mins? That's like just jamming it up there and ugh. And the ones that expect sex right after a baby. Do they not know what a vagina goes through? Give it a rest, literally.
