An Oregon woman has sued an influential Buddhist monk and trusted mentor over a litany of alleged sexual offenses including rape and pressuring her to keep an unwanted pregnancy.

Dzogchen Khenpo Choga Rinpoche, who also goes by Choying Rabjam, also allegedly asked her to sit in his lap and ‘suck his tongue like a lollipop,’ echoing accusations against the Dalai Lama earlier this week.

Rachel Montgomery, now 30, has filed a lawsuit accusing him of sexual battery and sex trafficking in 2011, when she was just 19 years old.

The two met when Montgomery was a teenager who studied under him at the Dzogchen Retreat Center in Eugene.

Montgomery alleges that Choga, as he is known, would continuously use their student-teacher relationship to make unwanted sexual advances, eventually allegedly raping her inside a Buddhist temple when she was 21.

She also claims that Choga, now 58, pressured her to get drunk before he sexually to the point where she was ‘barely conscious’ when he assaulted her and ordered her to, much like the Dalai Lama asked a child to do, suck his tongue for ‘tantric empowerment.’

‘I feel like Buddhism was weaponized to take advantage of me,’ Montgomery said to The Daily Beast. ‘I don’t want to say that it gets weaponized for everyone. But for me, it was weaponized.’

Spain Is Outraged Because a 68-Year-Old TV Star Had a Surrogate Baby With Son’s Sperm – Also: Woman Has Sperm Extracted from Dead Fiance To Make a Baby

These news stories seem rather weird and creepy .

Other than that, I’m not quite sure what to make of this, except to say I find conservative pearl clutching about it hypocritical, since my fellow conservatives are forever pressuring women to marry and make babies – you’d think they’d be THRILLED that these women want to bring another baby into the world, even if the fathers of the infants are dead.

You cannot win with some conservatives – if you stay single and celibate (hence, no pregnancies for you), or you are single, sexually active but use birth control, they get upset and angry with you, and they bleat on about you supposedly being selfish or complain about falling birth rates.

But if you do have a baby – while single, or via your dead son’s or dead fiance’s sperm – they don’t like that, either.

The Bible offers guidance on many issues. But when it coms to issues like divorce and remarriage in the church, there are still many questions that don’t have quick and easy answers. Questions like …

Is adultery the only grounds for divorce?
Is remarriage considered adultery?
What should you do if your spouse walks away from the marriage?

Dr. David Instone-Brewer helps clear things up on these issues that continue to remain controversial in the church today.

Crowder Announces Divorce

I saw “divorce” – the word – trending on Twitter, clicked on that, where I saw people tweeting that conservative host Steven Crowder announced that his wife wants a divorce.

I do recall years ago, seeing Crowder saying he and his wife waited until marriage to have sex, which I respect.

I can edit this post later to add any more information that comes to light, if I find it interesting or whatever.

This just goes to show that marriage is not a fairy tale, nor is it a guarantee for ongoing happiness. You can get married and still end up being miserable – if your spouse asks for a divorce, and you don’t want one – or if your spouse is abusive, a serial cheater, or what have you.

You can get married, and your spouse still want to end the relationship, leaving you single once more. I’m guessing that marriage didn’t bring this guy happiness, and certainly not his wife – she wants out.

I’m a conservative, I’m not anti-Nuclear Family nor am I anti-parenthood, but I am so sick and tired of other conservatives tendency to elevate marriage, parenthood and The Nuclear Family to a station that even the Bible does not. The Bible does NOT REVERE the Nuclear Family (or marriage, etc).

But many of the conservatives (maybe all) revere all that. Conservatives as a group tend to bash others over the head all the time with the “rah rah motherhood, rah rah marriage” rhetoric and shame anyone who isn’t married, who doesn’t have children, who cannot or does not want to get married or have children.

Then they turn around and get divorces. Or are found out for having committed adultery or child molesting.

I will say that at least most conservatives have standards, whereas progressives just don’t. But sometimes I wonder what good is it having certain standards if you’re going to fail them consistently?

Why bother shaming or judging never married, childless women such as myself for being single and childless (which many conservatives often do) when you cannot even keep your own marriage together?

I have more to say below all these links and excerpts:

U.S. Maternal Death Rate Rose Sharply in 2021, CDC Data Shows, and Experts Worry that Problem is Getting Worse

U.S. Maternal Death Rate Rose Sharply in 2021, CDC Data Shows, and Experts Worry that Problem is Getting Worse

Since I’ve been running this blog, for over a decade now, it seems that about once every few years, a new study comes out saying that maternal deaths are on the rise in the USA.

I would like to remind the reader that I am not against people having babies, if that is their honest to goodness desire in life, and I’m not pro-choice regarding abortion, but – in light of the fact that a woman can still lose her life due to pregnancy is a pretty sobering fact, and while the left needs to stop pushing abortion, the right needs to stop shaming or pressuring women to have children.

Unless I am mis-reading the infographics included with some of the articles below, Hispanics have lower maternal death rates than Whites, yet all the news reports I’ve seen so far keep contrasting this as “Black Women Vs. White Women.”

Excerpts:

March 16, 2023
by Roni Caryn Rabin

…The National Center for Health Statistics reported Thursday that 1,205 pregnant women died in 2021, representing a 40% increase in maternal deaths compared with 2020, when there were 861 deaths, and a 60% increase compared with 2019, when there were 754.

The count includes deaths of women who were pregnant or had been pregnant within the last 42 days, from any cause related to or aggravated by the pregnancy. A separate report by the Government Accountability Office has cited COVID as a contributing factor in at least 400 maternal deaths in 2021, accounting for much of the increase.

Even before the pandemic, the United States had the highest maternal mortality rate of any industrialized nation. The coronavirus worsened an already dire situation, pushing the rate to 32.9 per 100,000 births in 2021 from 20.1 per 100,000 live births in 2019.

A Texas couple has filed a lawsuit against a fertility clinic and associated laboratories alleging their two kids are not their full biological children because allegedly, the wrong sperm was used during the in-vitro fertilization process.

Camille and Derrick Bryan claim in a lawsuit filed Feb. 8 in a district court in Texas that they learned through DNA tests last August that Derrick Bryan is not the biological father of their young son and daughter, who are both under the age of 7.

The Bryans’ attorney, Tommy Hastings, told ABC News the couple decided to test their children’s DNA last year after a pediatrician noticed a type of birthmark on their son’s back known as a dermal melanocytosis.

The birthmarks, formerly known as Mongolian blue spots, are most common “among people of Asian, Native American, Hispanic, East Indian, and African descent,” according to the National Institutes of Health.

‘I Couldn’t Have Children Because My Mother and Father Were Brother and Sister’ by T. Weiler

‘I Couldn’t Have Children Because My Mother and Father Were Brother and Sister’ by T. Weiler

All that crap my fellow conservatives keep pumping out about marriage, parenthood, natalism, and The Nuclear Family keeps getting shown to be false over and over.

Marriage, parenthood, and the Nuclear Family don’t fix societal ills or make people more ethical, godly, or mature.

And I hate to say this as a conservative, but I’ve no doubt that most other conservatives (the ones who are abnormally fixated on Parenthood, Marriage, and The Nuclear Family) would wrongly assume that the reason this woman never had children is because she’s a man-hating feminist who put career before marriage.

It never occurs to such simplistic, dip shit conservatives that some of us – including conservative women such as myself! – that we couldn’t find the right guy to marry, or, maybe we’re infertile. There are many ways a person can end up single and/or childless into their 40s and beyond, and deliberately picking career over marriage is only one but many.

Dec 2, 2022

Making new friends when you’re in your mid-60s tends to follow the same pattern. Proud grandmas share photos of their grandchildren, stories of babysitting dramas and details of soon-to-be new additions.

So, at 64, I brace myself for the question I’m inevitably asked: ‘Teresa, do you have grandchildren yet?’

Pinning on my brightest smile I simply answer: ‘I’m afraid not. I would have loved a family but I just never met the right man.’

After years of being asked about my family status — first about children, now about grandchildren — you’d think I’d be used to it.

But while I’ve been giving the same platitudes for so long they trip off the tongue, the truth is, the pain I experienced aching for a baby is every bit as intense now as I accept I will never have grandchildren either.

Yet there’s no way I can share the real reason it never happened — that my family background is so tainted, I was terrified I would breed monsters.

My mother was 16 when I was born, my father just 14. More shocking still, they were brother and sister.

Excerpts:

by Alice Mann

For almost a decade I’d dreamed of this, I thought, gazing into the cot with tears pouring down my face. For so long, all I wanted was to be a mother, to make my partner a father. Now my dream had come true. And it was a nightmare.

After a serious relationship had ended when I was 35, I’d worried I’d never meet anyone else and never have my own children. I did everything to make it happen. At 36, I froze my eggs; at 40, still single, I tried to conceive on my own with donor sperm.

Then I met someone when I was least expecting to, and we tried together, enduring IVF, a natural pregnancy and a miscarriage before deciding to go down the route of finding an egg donor. When, at 44, on my eighth cycle of IVF, and my first using a donor egg, I finally got pregnant, and stayed pregnant, I didn’t dare to believe my luck.

But after a relatively straightforward birth — a planned C-section, based on my age and the size of the baby — our son was here.

When they placed him on my chest, I didn’t feel that rush of love people talk about. I mostly felt disbelief that after so long, here he was … ‘He’s so perfect,’ I whispered, in awe.

But four weeks later I was struggling to remember that feeling. Because what I felt as I stared at this screaming baby, the baby I’d wanted so, so much, the baby that I’d invested so many years of my life, and so much money — I guess around £100,000 all told, but I stopped counting after I hit £50,000 — in making a reality, wasn’t awe. It was resignation, resentment, horror and abject misery.

‘There is not one part of this that I’m enjoying,’ I sobbed.

And then I’d feel racked with guilt. Guilty for having these unnatural, unmotherly feelings. …

August 4, 2022

In our ever-present quest to become gods, scientists have created a “synthetic” mouse embryo for the first time, potentially opening the door to grow organisms without mothers or fathers.

From The Guardian:

Researchers have created the world’s first “synthetic embryos” in a groundbreaking feat that bypassed the need for sperm, eggs and fertilisation.

Scientists at the Weizmann Institute in Israel found that stem cells from mice could be made to self-assemble into early embryo-like structures with an intestinal tract, the beginnings of a brain, and a beating heart.

Known as synthetic embryos because they are created without fertilised eggs, the living structures are expected, in the near term, to drive deeper understanding of how organs and tissues form during the development of natural embryos…

My Boyfriend Blew $10K on his OnlyFans Addiction – While I Was Nursing Newborn by Andrew Court

One of several types of news stories that infuriate me more than others are men who have affairs on, or use porn, while their wife (or in this case, girlfriend) is pregnant or has just given birth.

Talk about selfish, entitled, and quite possibly on the narcissism spectrum – these men cannot be bothered to practice self control long enough to be faithful to their female partner while or shortly after she gives birth.

Society really does bask in male entitlement. Society coddles males and encourages them to act in this manner, doesn’t victimize them, contrary to Tucker Carlson.

A Kansas mom has gone viral after revealing her baby daddy spent more than $10,000 on OnlyFans and was secretly chatting away with porn stars while she was pregnant.

The woman — known only as “Kelsey” for privacy reasons — disclosed the devastating discovery in a clip that has clocked up more than 1 million views on TikTok.

In the viral video, Kelsey, 28, is seen holding her newborn baby, as text appears on the screen, which reads: “When you’re 4 weeks postpartum and you find out that your boyfriend hid an addiction from you for your entire three-year relationship where he spent thousands of dollars on OnlyFans for custom content instead of saving for your family.”

In subsequent clips, the mortified mama said she learned her man maxed out his high-interest credit card to keep feeding his OnlyFans fetish — but declared that she is staying with him as he tries to beat his porn problem.

Rebecca White, a “culturally white, cis, straight-identifying woman” penned the piece titled “I Had a Carefree Sex Life.

Ms. White expressed her concern for younger people who will have to “fear” the result of unprotected sex.

Abortion access has supposedly become “a war” and White advocated for women to “manifest on the streets, on the page, and in conversation.” Yes, take to the streets to ensure that you have the “right” to kill your babies after you choose to engage in unprotected sex. That’s the narrative these lunatics want you to buy.

May 5, 2022

An investment manager is fighting for the right to have a baby using the last remaining embryo he created with his late wife, after they spent a years desperately trying to have children.

Widower Ted Jennings, 38, of Highbury, north London, used his sperm to create multiple embryos with Fern-Marie Choya during several rounds of IVF treatments between 2013 and 2018.

He has now asked Mrs Justice Theis at the High Court to rule that it would be lawful for him to place the last embryo – which was created in 2018 and has been stored –  ‘in treatment with a surrogate mother’.

But lawyers representing the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority said Mr Jennings’ application should be dismissed.

They argued that it would not be lawful to use the embryo because Mr Jennings’ accountant wife, who died in 2019, had not provided written consent.

A U.K. High Court judge ruled in favor of a man requesting to use his late wife’s frozen embryo with a surrogate on Wednesday.

Ted Jennings, 38, had submitted his application to the High Court after his wife, Fern-Marie Choya, died suddenly in 2019 while pregnant with twins and did not give written consent as to how her embryos could be used following her untimely death.

The couple had previously engaged in fertility treatments, according to The Guardian. Choya later became pregnant with twins and died suddenly 18 weeks into her pregnancy after experiencing complications.
