Lizzi, Not only did you write this post in less than an hour because I wasn’t able to manage a single word, but you did it because you love me. This may not be the best place or way to tell you how much I love and appreciate our friendship but it’s how I am […]

Straddling Jesus – The Sisterwives Do Dallas
posted by Samara
You know those experiences that you look forward to and create such enormous expectations of, that the actual event doesn’t stand a chance? The Sisterwives meet up was NOT one of those. It began when Lizzi, our beautiful Brit, hatched her plan to travel to ‘Murica and meet dozens of beloved online friends. We formed a […]

The Kids are Alright!
posted by The Sisterwives
Everywhere you go, people are concerned about the state of the world today – the state of the economy; the politics; the environment…and ultimately, the state of people’s hearts. We’ve been told of their fears about our children, and the world they will inherit. We’ve listened to deep-seated and seemingly well-founded concerns about how their lives […]

What The Thin Girl Thinks
posted by Laurie Works
I’m that quintessential thin girl. 5’3. Size 2. 125 pounds. People guess I weigh anywhere from 100 – 115 and are surprised when I inform them they are incorrect. It’s genetic. My twin was smaller than I am. My sister Rachel had size 3.5 ring fingers. We’re practically hobbits. I never realized that everyone was […]

posted by Mandi
Turn down the lights. Pull on something more comfortable. I have a treat for you today. I’ve invited some very special guests to join me in the Man(di) Cave, and we are getting a little … er … ahem … intimate. Come on in. Sit down. Take off your shoes. Let me introduce you to […]

Seven Simple Tips To Make Her Happy
posted by Mandi
Each month, the SisterWives have dedicated at least one day to getting inside the mind of a man, three men actually, when we invite our favorite male bloggers to enlighten us on some of the things we (I’m speaking for women here) question about them. We haven’t necessarily played fair though, so today, I’m opening […]
Is This Thing On? Next Week, on Sisterwives….
posted by Renee
This past week, we explored sexuality and shame, exploration and oppression, and expressed our views on the purity movement. FUCK YOU, PURITY. It seems only natural to move on the next thing: Love & Lust. We have a sensory delight from Amy Noble that will stay in your head all day, and the lovely Hasty Words will bring […]

The Phone Call
posted by The Sisterwives
The Sister Wives struggled with the decision to make this piece anonymous, but ultimately decided is was more important to protect the identity and integrity of family members. The fact remains, this could be written by any one of us because mental illness hits from every direction, scattering its pellets of suffering among families and […]

The Man(di) Cave
posted by Mandi
It’s not every day that we get to have three men on our blog at the same time. Actually, it’s not every day, it’s once a month, and this month, I’m happy to introduce you (as if you don’t already know them) to three of our favorite guys here at SisterWives. You’ve most likely seen […]

Men, Show Your Love This Valentine’s Day By Looking Foolish
posted by The Sisterwives
Since the dawn of time, man has feared Valentine’s Day. I’m a journalist, so you can trust my facts on this. And because I’m a man, you can also trust me when I tell you our fear isn’t because we don’t want to express feelings of love and romance; it’s because we are afraid of […]

The trauma doesn’t end when the abuse does
posted by The Sisterwives
Today’s post is brought to you by a very dear friend of the Sisterwives. He has endured much, and tries to continue as cheerfully as possible – or at least, continue. In spite of the variety of his experience, nothing in his life so far had prepared him for this… Scott, you convey so much […]

In the darkest time of the year…
posted by Laurie Works
This hippie girl knows that we are in the darkest week of the year. The solstice arrived on December 21, just before Christmas. I think in all our souls we feel a tinge of it, in the frustration with shoppers, the dread of seeing family members next week, the exhaustion that brushes at the edges of […]

Don’t Cry, Mom
posted by The Sisterwives
I first ‘met’ Kathleen through a blogging group, where I was immediately impressed by her lively, engaging spirit, and her support and encouragement of others. She’s someone who you want to listen to (a good thing for an author, right?). Here’s the thing, though – she writes hard things beautifully, in ways which seem to […]

I’m the Sea King’s Daughter

Six weeks ago, I almost drowned. So why did no one hear me scream?

Hotness Scale Rebel
posted by The Sisterwives
I specifically remember the first post of Katie’s I read because I was hit with this feeling that can only described as SHAZAAM. How do you not love an adorable, talented writer whose words drip with sarcasm and self-deprecating humor? Of course I informed her that day that we are soul sisters and that I love her and all kinds of […]
