is there a specific philosophical set of tenets that someone must fuflill to fall under the classification of 'free thinker'? or is it merely a self-label people award their persons in an attempt to define themselves in some way or another? simply put, does anyone know the source of the term, what it entails, does it follow a specific philosophy or is it just a general label?

I was going outside and saw a cicada fly and land on my porch chair. I picked it up and tossed it into the living room for Bootsie to catch and play with.It made it's buzz/humming noise every time Bootsie touched it. Bootsie liked picking it up in her mouth because it tickled her with the vibration!.She carried it to the door and then back to the floor by my chair several times like she was showing me her big kill for the day! Then she would lay down and gently paw at it and play. She did this for hours.

For the non-Singaporean, Singapore has a mandatory 2-yr military service that applies to all 18-year-old, able-bodied males.
A "white horse" platoon is a colloqial term used to describe a platoon that has a son of a minister or high-ranking military officer in it. Such platoons are rumoured to be given preferential treatment. And I wanna know the truth.

aged at 20, my younger sister's period comes very very irregularly: sometimes every 2weeks, sometimes every 3months, and sometimes even every 6months.
she used to be very pretty and lots of people said that (and she is still very pretty in my eyes), but 2 years ago, she started to have lots and lots of big and small spots on her face (like of like acne), very likely they are due to hormonal disorder...
she then went to see doctor twice for those 2 reasons (period and acne), but the first time, wot the doctor could say was that 'lets wait and see...they are just normal acne...'. then the second time, the doctor checked her blood and did some bone tests, and said that everything was normal and there's nothing to worry about.

obviously, there's something wrong with my sister's hormones. i really want to help her as i dont like seeing her sad. i feel that she is afraid of going out because she doesnt want people to see her face (from very pretty girl to now=often sad and no confidence).

Good Muslims
S. Arabia = the most corrupt of all systems in the ME with the least freedoms for its citizens, particularly women.
Egypt = Corrupt administration with a President of 30 years more. Admitted he fixed last election to maintain the status quo in his country.
Jordan = US sponsored monarchy, with no Democracy or public vote.

BAD Muslims
Lebanon = Democratic State with one person one vote. Elected Parliament and popular movement with 90% approval rating.
Palestine = Subjegated people, who had their land stolen by Israel. Popular democracy. 1 person 1 Vote.
Iran = Independent Islamic state and Democracy with 1 person 1 vote. Wants nuclear industry to counter threat of Israel

The difference between both examples is that the first three are US sponsored with our tax dollars. They subjugate their people and worse, the Terrorists we are so afraid of came from these countries.
Is the American mind corrupted by liars and anti-democrats.?

The "sex relationship" has been going on for 2 years now and whenever we can have sex he is immediately able to become erect. He is also able to become erect immediately after sex if I want him to. Most men I have asked say that they cannot become erect immediately after sex unless they really like the woman. . . Is this true?

Not trying to sound prejudice
It's just that I notice when I am walking down the street or in the store Spanish men like to stare at me. Well not just ME women in general. It doesn't matter what they look like they almost break their necks trying to stare. I know I am not hot so unless it is bc I have a huge booger hanging out of my nose I don't see why they stare. Can someone please tell me why?

*I know men in general do it sometimes but i mostly see that kinda reaction with the spanish men.*

Could De`ja vue just be a flash back of a part of one of your dreams....I can remember my dreams very well. And yes...there are pieces in them do happen. One day while picking up my sister ...when i saw coming to the car..i got a sence of De ja vue...then as we got to The store...it happened again...then i was acting out each step after that because i kinda knew what was happening..then i realized that this was a dream i had about three days earlier...when we got back in the car...i remembered that I didn't like the shirt she was wearing in my dream...she had on the same type of shirt but of a slightly different color...i told her I could pick out one thing that she bought while shopping...a pack of pink razors...i was right...i almost went the rest of the day...knowing my next move...of corse there were different things in the mix...but pretty much what I had dreamed...So anyhow...my question is...do you think de` ja vue could actually be parts of a dreams you had one time or another
