If more boys, (especially those with absent fathers) saw men opening doors for women, giving seats to women, and by any means being kind, and caring to women, would they be more likely to treat women with greater respect when older? Would they be more likely to be faithful fathers and husbands? Would there be less single mothers? For the sake of restoring the father, should society, (including the FAMILY, school, and the media) promote chilvalry?

Since I was a little girl I have "known" things other people don't know. I have no control over my gift. You can not ask me a question about your future and I know the answer. The information is random, and my gift is getting more powerful over the years. I know details about people and what is going to happen to them. I know world events that are going to happen.

I would not believe it if there were a time I was wrong about a future event. But the information I feel has always been accurate. After my dad died, I couldn't take it anymore and I want it to stop. I see too many things. I have stopped watching the news because I have already seen what will happen. It's like watching it twice.

Please only serious answers. I really need someone who has gone through this to tell me how to control it.

Could a person be so suggestible, so trusting, that they would believe something that never happened such as an idea "planted" in their mind by, say, a therapist???

"In the US, racism is a well known issue. From racial profiling to other issues such as affirmative action, police brutality against minorities and the history of slavery and the rising resentment against immigrants.

Since the horrific terrorist attacks on the United States on September 11, 2001, Security concerns have understandbly increased, but so too has racial profiling, discrimination etc. In the early aftermath of the attacks some Americans that were understandably outraged and horrified, even attacked some members of the Sikh community where at least one was even killed, because they resembled certain types of Muslims, with beards and turbans. Various people of Middle East or South Asian origin have faced controversial detensions or questionings by officials at American airports."

The women in my family actually are decent dressers. Not even a cleavage. Why do people assume all women dress like the aforementioned slut?

In a relationship of two couples a sex believes it is the responsibility of the other sex to make provision for him or her. This occur before marriage not even before proposals. It occurs between youths of our tme. Like females requesting for recharge cards for their phone or some other things.

Why does this happen?

In order to promote diversity (or not), I'm thinking of setting up vacations for white families in American ghettos where you will spend the week in an actual ghetto household with a ghetto family. This will allow your family to learn the ghetto culture and see a different way of life. The proposed cost for me setting up all of the accomodations will be $2,000, a little bit more than the cost for your family to go to Disney World or Disneyland, but this will be no normal vacation. I have four destinations planned: Compton (South Central L.A.); Chicago (southside); Detroit (8 mile); and the South Bronx (Fort Apache). I cannot guarantee separate rooms, so you will have to bring sleeping bags. Other than that, I got it covered. Your stay will include one excellent barbeque. Otherwise, meals are not included. You will get to see at least one crime perpetrated as well (maybe even a drive-by). Please let me know if your family has any interest. Thank you. "HOLLA VACATIONS."

sport is something that is a leisure activety, people do it because they want to do it because its enjoyable and used to be completely amature and people still watched it no differently than they do today. College people play sports and still have to fit in a full time school, so why cant "professional" sports people do the same? If no one was paid to play sport, they would do it anyway, so why pay obscene amounts of money for something that most people willingly do for free?
