Ok, I'm slighly reticent about posting this here because I've seen how people get treated but I want to see what others think. I have a strange fetish and am worried about coming out to my girlfriend about it. Let me explain: Ever since I was young and first saw the movie Sleeping Beauty I have been turned on by beautiful women being put to sleep. It's always been a fantasy of mine to awaken my sleeping beauty with a kiss. I like pretend hypnosis and seduction like in the movie Phantom of the Opera where he puts Christine to sleep only to awaken her with seduction. Let me say this any fantasy I have is just fantasy only. I will repeat it is fantasy only. Real knockouts are dangerous and stupid. It is fantasy only. Ok: So..I like normal sex and sexual stuff as well, the sleeping thing is just icing on the cake. I want to know how I can perhaps break this to her and see if we could do some FANTASY role play where she is the sleeping beauty. Any suggestions or should I keep it to myself.

I was driving around town and I see a guy walking his dog at midnight and he stares at me like I'm the one acting dumb for driving when he's walking his dog at that hour.

It's 50 degrees and a guy's wearing shorts and he's looking through shirts at a store and he's looking at me funny.

Finally, there's a guy who's 5 feet tall smoking a cigarette wearing a crossing guard vest and he's staring at me like I got a problem.

Why do people suck so much sometimes? And do any of you others go through it.

of three children who stay home at the same time. I don;t believe that its impossible, just wondering how many of you think it is, because I know that it is a common perception. I just feel that there are so many factions of feminism these days, that it is basically different for every woman. I don;t think there is one perfect form of feminism. Opinions?

I was attacked by this girl at school and she got suspended. The principals want me to press charges against her, but i don't want to. I'm afraid that when she comes back to school, she'll be back out to get me. If she attacks me again, I'm going to fight back. Does anyone know if I can still press charges against her if I fight back when she attacks me again? Any information is appreciated!

She called the cops and all sorts of woman at the store agreed with her ( woman and mothers seem to stick together against men ) Female cop didn't think it was a big deal, but asked me to leave Wal-Mart. Whats your take on this scenario?

Do u find that strange? I try to have eye contact with people but I find it hard to do for a prelonged amount of time. If I ever go on a date I don't want the guy to think I'm not interested just b/c I can't look at him the whole time.
I don't want self-esteem/confidence lectures. I know another gal who does this too.

What types of jobs are available to a person who has a Bachelor's degree in Psychology with a concentration in gerontology (the study of aging)? I am in school right now and my major is Business but I am starting to have second thoughts. I was discussing my past jobs with my grandmother (all except 1 have been in retail) and she asked me if I was going to like sitting behind a desk all day with a degree in business. That got me thinking, and I don't really think I would be happy with that. Of all the jobs I have ever had, my favorite was working as an Activity Assistant in a Nursing Home. I only did that for 3 months because the Nursing Home closed, but I really enjoyed it. I like working with elderly people. Are there many jobs available to someone with a BS in Psychology, or is it better to stick with a BS in Business. If I switched to Psych, I would probably keep business as a minor.
