Social Science - 2 September 2006

I was raped as a small child by the son of my babysitter. At the time, I didn't understand what was happening, but now - being 16 - I know what he did and I've started wondering how he could do such a thing and how, in the weeks and months afterward, there were no indications that he felt the least bit sorry or remorseful afterward.

How can someone be like that and act that way after raping a five year old girl? Can anyone tell me?

I would want to be ten years old, because I had more friends than I could count, perfect grades and a nice figure. I now have none of those things :-(

Have you ever thought about getting back at someone (boyfriend, girlfriend, spouse, employer, bad neighbor, etc.) by burning something they own?

How would you do it?

How would you avoid hurting yourself and anyone else?

What would you do to avoid being caught?

I don't think it is "racist" to condemn rap-crap, hip-hop slop,
and boomcars. White youth are also into this trash.

In earlier times, black people did a lot to contribute to fine
musical traditions in this country. What would
Louie Armstrong think about rap-crap?

They think they can resolve it
by mimicking the worst which comes out of the "hood"
and is packaged up and marketed to them by
corporations run by -- guess who? -- probably mostly
middle-aged rich white guys laughing all the way to
the bank.

The writer argued that a consequence of the equality
movement for females has been to take away from
male youth their sense of male identity -- differentness
from females. Now rap advocates demeaning and killing women.

Any thoughts?

This is an excerpt from anti-noise advocate Michael Wright - one of my heroes who is being targeted by thugs for his stance.

I'm kind of nervous about it, I've been feeling pretty angry and depressed sometimes, so I figure I need to talk to a psychiatrist for the first time, but could anyone inform me as to what to expect?

I've noticed that this generation seems to have "issues" with their children because the kids raise themselves. What gives? Why are you so self-centered? I'm 40ish and I devote all of my time to my kids. Would really like to understand.

An autistic person (high functioning & friendly sort), who had given up the bad acquired habit of lying to cover up uncomfortable situations/feelings, once had a very vivid dream involving a man she hardly knew at the time--she'd only spoken with him twice at that point and not for long. It was not a sexual dream. She told the dream to her husband, but had to stop when he began to tease her about a quite big crush on the guy. He never stopped teasing her about it when she had short appts. to see him. It very soon got to the point where she never said a word about him again, till the husband became anxious and started saying the guy liked HER. He used the guy's actions as "proof" & her dream & compliance as proof she liked him. Her self-confidence in social sitches was improving, so she didn't immediately quit going to him--she thought her husband knew better. She did quit after nearly leaving HIM for his bad behavior. He STILL teases. ARE autistic's dreams LITERAL?? I say NO.
