People in our society always want to know, what is the right thing to do? What are you ultimately trying to achieve?

Feminist family law attorney Sherri Donovan, National Counsel for the National Organization for Women, is urging women to greet their husbands this Valentine's Day with the words "Happy Valentine's Day -- Let's Get Divorced!!"

Donovan asserts that "the average woman experiences a forty-five percent drop in her standard of living after divorce," even though this statistic--produced by Lenore Weitzman in the mid1980s--has been discredited for over a decade, with Weitzman herself admitting her error.

I thought this was kind of astonishing - do you?

Yesterday a friend asked me if I have a copy of I Am The Walrus by Oasis. NO, they were not referring to the cover version Oasis that did of the song - they genuinely thought it was a track penned by Noel Gallagher.

This person is 29 years old! I was rather stunned. Am I alone in finding this very bizarre?

A government has long debated what exactly this "justice" they ever so long to achieve, quite frankly, is. What is justice and additionally, what do you think is the best way of achieving justice?

I've been seeing this guy that I met through a friend, and he seems really nice (plus, he came with good recommendations from my said friend). However, recently he (the guy I'm seeing), told me about his friend (frat boy) who got his car spray-painted by an anonymous person. Then he went on about how it could have been the rival frat, but that he knew a few people who hated the leader of the frat. Then he said "I met these ugly girls who hated the frat leader. But it probably wasn't them, because ugly girls usually don't do anything but... sit around and be ugly, and one of them was really fat"..... I found this sort of immature and mean, so I responded (in a half-joking way), " That's so mean hehe..." and the guy answered back, "well I'm just being honest..."
OK. Everything was going pretty good until he said those mean things about those girls.
Does this make him a bad guy?

We are recently married and he just spent a lot of money on a new computer. Now he spends up to 5 hours at a time playing his game. He spends most of the weekend on the computer. Whenever I even try to interrupt him he becomes frustrated. I feel incredibly left out and ignored. Last night he had been playing and I told him to come to bed which he said he would he was just going to turn off the computer and I waited for him for an hour before falling asleep.

I'm out of ideas. I've asked him if I could play too. I've already tried the 'standing there naked' thing but it only works temporarily haha. I've tried ignoring it and I've tried doing other things and getting out more myself but the truth is I really just want to spend time with him. I miss him. But I know its important to him and he enjoys his time on it. I feel selfish and foolish for being jealous of a computer.

Any creative ideas or personal experience advice would be helpful and greatly appreciated. Thanks :)

For Christianity? Because if you have not, how can you reject something so important based on what you feel or have heard from someone else?

Ok, so here's the deal... If you need the explanations they're all around you...

1) She speaks spanish... she speaks spanish perfectly... what is she like...5? Her backpack even speaks spanish perfectly!

2) That backpack of hers has EVERYTHING in it! And we're talking everything! Life support, water/food, clothing for any weather, ropes, grappling hooks, shoes.... i mean c'mon!

3) She's carrying a freaking ZOO with her! I mean, she has a monkey, an band of insects, a bajillion other animals! Really! What kind of legal immigrant has that many pets!?

4) She's always on an "adventure" to transport a "package" to some destination and is always being stalked by a person trying to take that package... i mean... really, Swiper is so obviously some sort of border patrol person trying to collect evidence of Dora's entire narcotics trafficking buisness

The evidence is so obvious and around you guys! And they're even poisoning our little children with them... Who wants our toddlers to grow up knowing spanish before english?! Even if it's the USA...

My last bf bought me expensive clothes and shoes, most of which he picked out. He spent thousands on gifts, airline tickets (although never first class), dates, etc., in the eight months he dated. But I always felt like just a piece of arm-candy, and I never had any say in the trips or other stuff. I mean, once he walked into a formal gown boutique (very exclusive, appt only) and dropped $4000 on two gowns (we only needed one for the charity gala we were attending, but he liked two of them, so he said, why not?). Keep in mind, I'm a poor mother of two who would have loved a sofa, a new flute (I'm a music teacher and my flute was stolen a couple of years ago; believe me, I hinted!), or even a used car for that money. I have no use for the gowns in my closet now. He was controlling in all ways: bedroom, relationship, etc. Nightmare bf. Should I watch out for men with money?
