I heard you, Jason and Gutterboy, and have tweaked up the CF Geek code
to more accurately reflect the diversity of CF folks on this board.

So, here it is- CF Geek Code version 2.0...

CF Geek Code 2.0

Degree of Cfness: (CF)

IF!IF-m! Happily infertile/ -m post menopausal
C/G/LCF! Nonprocreative or biologically impossible- and damn happy
about it (Celibate/Gay/Lesbian)
++++ F Had the plumbing completely removed
+++M I shoot blanks*
+++F Filleted Fallopians*
++ On the pill, use a condom
? Fence sitter, baby-maybe

* I put the hetero sexually active categories at a slightly lower level
because some vasectomies and tubals can fail.

Tolerance of kids (TK)

TK! Can’t stand them, and don’t care who knows
++++ Cannot bear sight or sound- wants private CF nation
+++ Will not voluntarily go to ‘family’ establishments
++ Refuses to hold any baby, or baby sit
+ Aunt/uncle with some tolerance
? Voluntarily baby-sits, works with kids
?! Permits kids in home


Tolerance of parental idiocy (TPI)

TPI! Seeks out and destroys miscreant parents, unafraid of
confrontation
++++ “SILENCE THE CHILD!” Photo collection of stork spot flip-offs
+++ Death Glare, remarks to partner
++ Puts up with it, thinks of witty ripostes later
+ Might park in ‘stork spot’ if no one is watching
? Steps off paths for ignorant stroller armies
?! Knows where you can buy those mega-strollers

Activism (A)

A! Interviewed by press, or wrote book, did artwork, or other
public activity
+++++ Roasted by the spotlight, misquoted on NPR or other major media
++++ Posts to several CF boards, input archived
+++ Belongs to a NoKidding group, or wants to start one
++ Not afraid to wear “Thank you for not Breeding” T-shirt to
family events
+ Happily razzes telephone pollsters about school vouchers
? Has “My child is an honor student at !(#*@ school” sticker on
car, and it isn’t a used car.

Verterbral Fortitude (VF)

VF!! You are Swan or Pete
++++ You want to be as verbally devastating as Swan or Pete
+++ Troll-roaster in training
++ Feel that backbone forming
+ Uh, get back with me on that

I might be selecting baby lice here, but how about a category for
those whose partners are sterilized? DH has a vasectomy, so I
don't use ANY birth control (hey, if he knocks me up I'll be
living on easy street with the lawsuit dough coming in from
Kaiser Permanente!), but I'm certainly not a fence sitter. I
just don't see the point in having invasive surgery done unless
there is no other legal way of maintaining unpregnancy. (I do NOT
do well with anesthesia and will not undergo it without major
consideration.)

Melody, hoping this doesn't start a round of "Well, you're not
REALLY CF unless..."

H'mmm... Well, if your partner has the slice or dice, you could put
down the category CF+++M/SO to indicate that. Would that work?

Sorry about the oversight- when you are completely outside the sexual
circle like I am, it is difficult to think of all the different
combinations and possibilities. This has never given me any trouble
before! :-)

Which reminds me, I am not sure if I shared this with the group or
not......

Jeez, Jennifer, how do you drive by those signs without projectile
vomiting out the car window?

I know a mommy whose house I commute past. I asked her if her children play
in traffic. She said, "If you see them out there, you can run them down...
but please spare the cat."

Okay, I'll play the geek game once.

The world is wide, and intelligent thought will readily supply an
unlimited number of well-sounding names which do not enable some mother
to say that her son was killed in an operation called "Bunnyhug".

Hey I'm with you there. I'm not snipped or a fence sitter.
I'll watch your back on any "you're not really CF..."
arguments.

DW is taken care of so I see a need for anything sharp or
pointy near my valuables. I don't plan to sleep with anyone
else so if we have kiddies, I've got lawsuit dough coming
too.
