No, not at all! I just shared how I understood the difinition of fp. I agree it is a very very strong word (I wouldn't use it anywhere) and, I wrote the saying in the first place because I couldn't find words in English which would have described my thoughts. I think she/he (who said homemaking blogs are narcissistic) just have some issues with herself.<br />Please, do bear with me :-)Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03130669456548942894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139017677124620997.post-73711538283442082982013-10-14T00:49:04.637-07:002013-10-14T00:49:04.637-07:00I just did, and it was a very nice post.

And I agree that few people want to see a picture of a gloomy room or constantly read about personal problems of the blog owner. We all have enough things going on in our own life which are less than ideal.

All these women are doing is sharing, I get so many ideas and to do on improving my home and my homemaking skills. How are homemaking sites different then home and garden magazines? Seems the same and nobody is calling Victoria Magazine or other home magazines nasty names; well maybe some ill tempered folks are and I just don't know about it. And frankly I would rather not know. Homes are wonderful places and there is no home without a homemaker. I applaud all who take the time to blog about Homemaking to inspire and encourage us all. <br /><br />ShaolinAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3139017677124620997.post-53034575214101173012013-10-11T10:42:25.845-07:002013-10-11T10:42:25.845-07:00I know what you mean.

IMO, it's not only a waste of time, but also the amount of liberal propaganda you will get inside by regularly watching it, is beyond the pale. Zomby box seems a suitable name for it. However, I think calling homemaking blogs feminine porn, is probably going too far.

I find it a quite good definition, because you can see more than you could know if you just dicussed with her, or read her writings.<br /><br />I'll put the whole narcissism thing into bin which is labelled 'A dog who is hit by a stick will shout' (a Finnish saying I very loosely translated). Everything in this world can be seen in two opposite ways.Miriamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03130669456548942894noreply@blogger.com
