I was in south africa a few years ago and these are some of the common beliefs from everyday people there.( this is indicative of my travels.not meaning to speak for the entirety of the problem areas, though they might apply)
-the men don't trust condoms,"thats where the americans put the AIDS"they have a mistrust for outside nations with rumor being as good as fact.such as the idea that it was created to kill them off so we could take their land.pres.mugabe of zimbabwe has even blamed the weather on american storm machines and that's naturally accepted as fact by them.
-homosexual sex is just another common aspect of life, not frowned upon.it is given that if they are going to be off ,say in the diamond mines away from their wives they will get by with another man.
-there is another example that I won't write here as some will take it as a joke.
more people should be aware of these things so that a different approach could be realized. ex:dropping tons of condoms wont fix it

I'm on 3rd week of active pills and started spotting and cramping as if i was going to begin my period, it has some what cleared. I have been sexually active but used condoms. This has never happend before, i have taken the pills since july. I haven't been feeling good either, could I be pregnant?

If i were to take a ept test now would it be too early to detect?

People complain about how violent this world is and how bad children are getting but can it be said that society is leading by example? Every other video game is teaching children how to murder/steal/lie or cheat and there are a number of movies that numb us and our youth from a very young age. Several movies and tv shows lack any morality there is, ie: Mr. and Mrs. Smith, Chicago, Zoey101, Four brothers, The Game, Desperate House Wives, etc... The list could go on but I'm guess I'm trying to figure out how society expects us to better ourselves when all they feed us is negativity and things that we arent suppose to be doing?

How do people get your #? We recently got a phone call from our bank saying they turned our card off for suspicious activity. Someone used the number of the card only at wal-mart (we still have the card in our posession) and Wal-mart actually took it!!! Even though this happened a few hundred miles from where we were at the same time (we used it the same day) the bank is giving us a hard time about it. How the heck did they get the number if it never left our sight? Kinda scary, so warning to everyone who thinks it can't happen to them cause they are safe!!!

It seems as though many people who hear about the threat of global warming laugh it off, complaining that evironmentalists are the new hippies of tomorrow. Well, then im a new hippie of tomorrow because, unlike many, i am neither ignorant nor myopic.
In the US our society is fast paced and full of short attention spans, however, nature is not and will never be like this and the process of global warming has been gradual. Just look at The Day After Tomorrow. Hollywood found a way to market global warming in putting all of the worst case scenarios and cramming them in weeks. It obviously does not happen like this which is why our society and its short attention span would rather read People than protect the very place that those same People require to live.

So i guess my question would be: What do you think about this obvious problem? and if you do not think this is a threat, why?

I finally on my way to being in a serious relationship with a great guy, but I'm finding myself being attracted to other guys, feeling like that once this relationship is official, I could be missing out. Does anyone relate to what I'm feeling? How do you deal with this fear of commitment?

1 1/2 cups sugar
1/2 cups butter
2 eggs
2 squares melted chocolate
2 cups flour

Beat eggs, butter, and sugar. Add melted chocolate. Measure flour, salt, sift and add to mixture alternatively with water. Mix soda with 1 tablespoon water and add last. Bake 20 minutes at 350F.

Oh AND please dont give me translation websites because they are all gramatically incorrect. i need someone who cares and is really good at french, perhaps someone who has french as their mother tongue.

According to science, the essential goal of life is procreation and the extension of life. I went a real slump as I realized that there is no goal in life. As i thought about it more, however, I realized that this is the true beauty in life: having no assigned goal. To each his own. And, now, i ask, what is yours?
