Can lesbian's sponsor females or is that not considered predatory 13th stepping. Sounds like someone wants all the new girls to hate and trust only them. Gay women have been using this tactic for decades as well to get into the pants of the new girl. Advice to all newcomers, if anyone makes an advance(of the sexual nature) avoid them like the plague, because they do not have your best interest in mind!
@Foldemchamp1 Anyone can sponsor a newcomer. Hopefully the group looks out for new people helping them avoid potentially inappropriate behavior. I sponsor lesbians & straight women. I know many lesbians who sponsor straight women & do a beautiful job. I also know there are a lot of amazing men, primarily old timers who sponsor men and women alike. Everything is by suggestion only & yet again, this song is simply playful. Not controversial. I avoid controversy. We each must be true to ourselves.
Congrats, this is really funny. One of the fundamental basics of a healthy recovery from practising, active addiction, is to develop a sound capacity to laugh at oneself, at one's past episodes, & to adopt a lightness & humour about it all ... but, of course, as with all such humour, there IS a real message to learn from inside of it all, too ...
The cartoonist is "Ben Ben The Fisherman" and yes I should have put his name in. Thank you so much for bringing that to my attention! I asked his permission but forgot to give him credit. He's a very funny guy!
cool & true...I get it :( Married a dude after being in recovery for 4 months...now that we separated he is back to the 13th step :( sad for him and us and those gilrs, but glad I know better!!! Keeping on my steps and recovery first AS IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN
nice tune! and the cartoons needed to be attributed to the comic writer, who I know (shame on not, but good to share)
LOL..I cant believe some of you cant see this is a FUNNY video....why all your panties in such a bunch? Get to a meeting and learn to laugh a lttle fer Gods sake. Oh, and NOBODY can be banned from AA...NOBODY!
@isegoria1 AA's opinion is exactly this: if you are capable of not drinking without help, then please go do that. I have tried many, many times (and many types of help as well), and either couldn't stay sober, or was sober for a time and miserable, to the point where alcohol poisoning or suicide were very real risks.
Everyone in AA is more or less insane, though, so you know... be a grown-up and make your own decisions regarding what you need. It works if you work it
I'm thinking that you and assburger are the same person... Both of you need to read the Big book and the 12 and 12. Both of you could not be more misguided.
@SloppyMoose Actually they can. Back in the day when there weren't many women around the 12 step programs (and in some areas it's still like this) females either got a male sponsor or they didn't have a sponsor at all. Having a sponsor of the same sex is only a suggestion, it's not anywhere in the first 164 pages of the big book. Not that I would suggest a female should get a male sponsor. I'm very for women sticking with the women and men sticking with the men.
