A good counsellor will help you overcome your sadness and feelings of inadequacy so you won't feel the need to criticise other people. I hope that one day you will be able to experience the love and joy as is expressed in this wonderful post about a mother creating a garment for her son and the pride she feels in his mastery of an extremely demanding artform. Do whatever you can to find your way to a happier frame of mind. Your unkind thoughts are only harming yourself and life is too short to be angry and unhappy.LittlePinkKiwihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00517277061626512617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861935433158624662.post-41223957931214306402015-03-04T14:30:49.613+13:002015-03-04T14:30:49.613+13:00Thanks, acharmofmagpies :) Brains has the ability ...Thanks, acharmofmagpies :) Brains has the ability to train professionally should he choose to do so.Alihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08901511380818937555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861935433158624662.post-85032608976865764182015-03-04T14:28:40.278+13:002015-03-04T14:28:40.278+13:00I feel really sorry for you, accepting such old fa...I feel really sorry for you, accepting such old fashion gender stereotypes as gospel. If this really is your true opinion then then you are limiting your own potential in every possible way. <br /><br />I'm sure you feel nice and safe, under your dark and resentful rain cloud, criticising someone who is proud to excel at something they clearly have a talent for - both mother and son. <br /><br />I suggest you step outside, open your eyes and embrace the sunshine, you'll enjoy life so much better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861935433158624662.post-62998766875948839912015-03-04T14:16:32.326+13:002015-03-04T14:16:32.326+13:00How sad that you have nothing better to do than to...How sad that you have nothing better to do than to come here and troll. <br /><br />Firstly, why wouldn't one be proud of their skills in construction and problem solving, even if the constructed item is to be used for intimate purposes? It takes skill to work with 4-way stretch performance fabric and FOE, especially on small pieces; and creative problem solving nous to tea dye the elastic to get the right shade of beige. I am not at all surprised that the author is proud of what she has created with her own two hands, using the skills she has built over years. <br /><br />Also, I am absolutely startled that anyone still thinks of ballet as being feminine. Ballet is a set of skills that few, male or female, can master. It takes dedication, fortitude, discipline, physical strength and athleticism, an innate sense of rhythm, and grace to be a ballet dancer. I see nothing in that list that suggests it is a set of characteristics that only women can posses.<br /><br />While I am glad that this post lightened a dark day, it says a lot about the kind of character you have that you took such pleasure from mocking others. I hope that the people you encounter in your life show you more kindness and sense than you have shown here today, for if the world is full of bullies and meanies such as you, then it is a sad place. <br /><br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861935433158624662.post-69095657307536739782015-03-04T14:09:25.529+13:002015-03-04T14:09:25.529+13:00How very clever to use tea to solve your elastic c...How very clever to use tea to solve your elastic colour problems! They look very neatly made too, you certainly know how to work with your performance fabrics!<br /><br />Also, Brains looks glorious on stage. I am sure he is a very talented dancer, and wish I'd seen him in the Fringe!

I think I takes common sense to understand its purpose, I just don't think you can see how ridiculous it is seeing someone being so proud to make these for their own son who does one of the most feminine things possible haha. Honestly please do continue posting about these things, these posts really do lighten up my darkest of days :)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-861935433158624662.post-13168263342392111652015-02-27T23:02:40.431+13:002015-02-27T23:02:40.431+13:00You're welcome, Jeannie :) I'm not the ori...You're welcome, Jeannie :) I'm not the originator of the tea dye - I was told by folk wiser than me!
