Love my family origins.

My family origins are pretty boring, but my son is a mixture of Brazilian indigenous and African. I won't post a picture of him online, but he is quite striking. He regularly gets compliments from strangers while I am ignored, but that's fine.

He looks a lot like the young man on the left, but with curly hair rather than the straight black. When he's older, I look forward to taking him back to the region where his biological family comes from to perhaps meet a few of them.

There is something about the skin colour and features of indigenous people that I find very beautiful. My splotchy pink skin just looks like it should be covered up.

Someone at school recently made fun of him because his skin is different (in Canada, we're in a very white part of the country). Him getting made fun of for that is definitely something that I don't like. Not much of a confession though.
I think the kids that did it just didn't like that the girls at school want to talk to him more than them.

Also kids are prone to pick on anything to establish a pecking order. It can be skin color, skills in sports or anything. They need guidance.

I think he was meaning his specific family, but ok I'll go with it. I like my family origins and their traditional outfits too. My currently living direct relatives can be annoying at times though.

I think people back then had some interesting things going on.

I was at a castle in Switzerland and when I got to the "toilet", I was a little taken aback. It hung over the lake, and there were about 6 seats available, all fairly close to each other. You could maybe puff your elbows out while sitting and not touch the neighbour, but that's it.

I found it hard to imagine crunching one off with 5 other people sitting around. But, I guess I'm a prude. I try to be open minded.

That castle also had the biggest bed in Europe. At the time? I don't know if it still has the record. It was enormous. Maybe 15-20 people could fit in it.

So, perhaps it was the castle of kink. Either way... those sombre expressions are hiding things, of that I am sure!

Off in the woods at local older farms I've seen a few long abandoned examples of multi-seat outhouses. Farm families used to be a lot bigger before modern farm equipment was invented.

Personally I detest using public washroom facilities, especially ones designed for multiple occupants. I like locking doors and privacy when I poop.
