Ok, I can understand women wanting a taller guy, the whole protective issue, can wear high heel thing. No problem, if you're 5'10", yeah a 6.0' guy would look more normal to be with. But what's with the 5.0' or shorter girls wanting 6.0' or TALLER guys? That I just don't get. I know from talking to girls that they are as insecure about their height as shorter men are but what's the rational for wanting a guy that much taller than you? And how do you justify being "heightist" I guess toward men when you yourself don't like being considered short?

Base it on whatever you want.

Whether you make something up, base it on what you read in my Qs and As, consultation of tarot cards, or whatever, is up to you.

Be as detailed as you want.

......people below a certain attractiveness should only be allowed to marry people above a certain attractiveness to try and even the "good looking" genes out.Wouldn't this help stop all the angst so many people have to go through in life because of low-self esteem.?(the looks are based on an average rating)

Why do I have such bad luck? How can I change my luck? I've tried being positive but it just seems to get worse no matter what. I had average luck before I married my husband and then once we were married and had our son its so bad that it makes me depressed and I can't stand it anymore. Here's a small example: My husband gets a really bad cold when he's at work and he has to help his mom right after work (all day). He comes home I have to take care of him without getting me or my son sick. My son is crying fussing the whole time. The next day my husband is in bed all day and when he does get up he gets sick. I take my son (18 month old) out to avoid us getting sick and we have car problems. We go for a walk on the greeway and he starts running so I will chase him and while i am pushing the strolling and running I step on the back wheels and twist my ankle. ok - god theres so much more that happens but I don't have enough room to write...any suggestions on how to change my luck???

I read many contrasting studies. A general claim is that the global IQ is rising (the Flynn effect). Other studies refute this. And other studies say IQ is hogwash and culturally bound.

At the end of the day my questions is: why do I have the sinking feeling we as a species are getting dumber by the minute?

Hey, i know it sounds like a stupid question...and it probably is..but i really dont get it, why does sex sell so well? I mean i get that a hot guy or girl on the cover of a magazine would attract you to buy it...i do get it when its like that, but the hot guy/girl actually has somethin to do with the stories inside. But when it comes to things like a video games or cell-phone advertisements...why have a pretty girl in a bikini on the cover? Where´s the relevance? Would you really wanna buy a cell-phone more cuz theres a pretty girl standing next to it, or is the pretty girl just in the initial attraction..and THEN u notice the cell-phone and go...hmm, that looks cool, i might buy it?

How long
how long will I slide
Separate my side
I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slittin my throat
It's all I ever

I heard your voice through a photograph
I thought it up and brought up the past
Once you've know you can never go back
I've got to take it on the otherside

Centuriees are what it meant to me
A cemetery where I marry the sea
Stranger things could never change my mind
I've got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on

How long
how long will I slide
Separate my side
I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slittin my throat
It's all I ever

Pour my life into a paper cup
The ashtrays full and I'm spillin' my guts
She wants to know am I still a ****
I've got to take it on the other side

Scarlet starlet and she's in my bed
A candidate for a soul mate bled
Push the trigger and pull the thread
I've got to take it on the otherside
Take it on the otherside
Take it on
Take it on

How long
how long will I slide
Separate my side
I don't
I don't believe it's bad
Slittin my throat
It's all I ever

Turn me on take me for a hard ride
Burn me out leave me on the otherside
I yell and tell it that
It's not a friend
I tear it down I tear it down
And then it's born again

How long

I was wondering around this strange house. One that i have never seen before. Each room was different. one room was like a restraunt . Another like a class room. There were desks and tables and one main desk in the front. There was bedrooms and bathroom. I come upon the classroom. I see a few of my old friends sitting in the desks so i sit down assuming class was about to begin. They were discussing a murder of a baby. Everything seems to be moving in slow motion at this point. Next thing i know someone is pointing at me accusing me of this murder. So in this dream im going all over this house trying to prove that i didn't murder anyone. Passed through the bedrooms , the bathrooms and then I make it to the Restaraunt room. Another friend was there asking me what happened. I was explaining to her that I was innocent and then some how I ran off and ended up in the attic bein attacked bu something that I could not see. I attempted to dial 911 from my cell kept getting no response.
