    It seems that the menopause is starting earlier than ever with many women only 45 YO experiencing signs that it is coming.

    This alone must be a concern to those women who are a little worried that their husbands will seek sex elsewhere?

    Better sell the YK shares and buy 'Sprout'. :o)

    Now yb, are you saying there were no GOP congressmen in the situation I mentioned? Biased or fact?

    Oh.........you mean to tell me as well that you've never seen what I've typed about democrats? Would that be biased or fact?

    Your overall tone is biased. Just because you once voted for someone you thought was a conservative 30yrs ago doesn't make you rational.

    A Dem could have a fetus on a bloody spear while burning a flag and the media would think its funny. Some consenting adults in a bathroom trying to get their rocks off is headline news for 6 mos.
    Go ahead and read some more Media Matters and HuffPo and think you're informed.

    Your overall tone is biased.

    That's a relative statement if there ever was one. I will give you this.....you are by far the best wannabe American. By your post on abortions......is that what I am now......an abortionist?
    Who pays you yb, to spend so much time here? You are an idiot by far. I may be a knuckle dragger for serving my country, the USA that is, but you kid, yes kid if someone in their 50s is old, you kid are by far a joke. Probably a socio-path who spend his/her life in front of the screen, online.

    Why an idiot.....Charlie Baker is the current governor .....not James Baker 30 years ago. As I said....American wannabe.

    Go pat yourself some more on the back by saying.......I told you so.

    I think you have a reading comprehension problem.
    Anyhoo, there's nothing I can do if you don't believe I am an American.
    It really doesn't matter anyway

    There you go thinking again.......but you are right on one thing, it doesn't matter. I'm here and you're there.

    I'd like to know where you think I am from...

    With all your persona's, both male and female, you call me sad. You have a chronic illness.

    What I am going to laugh at........when November 8th 2016 rolls here and who takes office. Maybe I can do my yankee boi impression than.

    I told you so. Such a lack of confidence. No wonder you're a chronic writer here.

    I only have one persona on here.
    Who else do you think I am?

    Who do you think will win the USA Prez?
    Hillary if she's not in jail
    or a Nasty old Socialist?

    Good choices on your side
    Really good choices.

    It's a funny thing with people like you, embracing the need to assume that if one is not X that they must be Y. The world is a little more complicated that your simple thinking of black and white.
    Most all Democrats, the side you assume I am on, I see in the same light as Republicans.
    The way I perceive both parties and I believe this is a common POV here; Democrats full of spineless bullshit with an policy emphasis on people. Republicans are full of spineless with a policy emphasis on business.

    How, btw the way, pat yourself on the back (someone has to), one of your predictions may be coming true. And with that, we both can say...“I told you so”.
