I think i figured out why guys are usually alot more clueless than girls (the ones who aren't trained). Girls have two X chromosomes but guys have an X and a Y. Maybe the reason guys are so dimwitted is because 1/8 of the genetics are missing. I'm guessing that's common sense, basic thought, and hte ability to think before we speak. Anyone agree with me?

Feminism is usually connected with a kind of extremism, "femi-nazism", hating men, "female chauvinism", but I really wonder where are the proofs for that. Being engaged in feminist and gender researches for several years, and contacting with feminists from almost all over the world, I have never met any violent extremist, even among those who call themselves "radical feminists". Also, I have never seen any serious feminist text, book, proclamation, appeal with some offensive, men-hatred content. I would really like to hear from people who are so sure that feminists are just some "femi-nazis" etc, where did they read or hear that.

Let's say you're a hot babe and you have a good friend who gets put down by people for being unattractive. And she has low self-esteem and gets really upset about being ugly. She doesn't hate you but she is envious of your looks. How do you talk to her and cheer her up? Since you're a hot chick, you can't say "I know how you feel" because she wouldn't believe you.

No joke this really happened to me. One night I had a dream over and over and over,....all night long. I dreamed that there was a woman with short blonde hair,...I couldn't see her face,...but she was walking through a revolving door. Along with her were 3 or 4 men that looked like "spirits". And they were walking through the revolving door. When I awoke I was bothered by the dream. At about 2:00 PM my ex turned on the tv. They were saying that princess Di had been in a fatal accident. I said how terrible. I walked into living room and started watching. When to my disbelief they showed her and the others walking through the revolving door. I got chills. The hair on the back of my neck stood up. It was if I was the camera that was filming it.
I have had many strange ESP,etc experiences. But this was one that really took me by surprise.
I would like to add that there was no tv playing while we were asleep. If there would have been I may understand why I dreamed about princess Di.

I find that I only truly learn things by doing things the most difficult way possible (only to realise at the end there is a much easier and more efficient way to do things!) or by making mistakes and learning from them. I think this is, in fact the best way to learn. I´ve never made the same mistake twice!

How about you? What have you learnt the HARD way?

OK.
He is an online friend i've known for a while, sure we had a little argument but we're both cool now.But now he suddenly completely dissapeared. I sent him hundreds of messages and e-mails , but he quit responding to me. He told me that he just simply wasn't comfortable with getting close with anyone, due to his shy nature, so he asked me to just let go of it. But i can't!

How can i can this friend back bcos i really deeply care about him, he is a lovely, intelligent type, and make him understand that i do accept and love him as he is in kindness.
How am i suppose to change his mind?

He lives in another country so i only communicate with him through e-mails and such.
Please help!
Thanks Everyone very much.

The basis of the question is, should certain learning difficulties be specifically classified as dyslexia or not?

Two nights in a row now I have dreamed that I was hiding from someone who was trying to kill me or hurt me.

Does that have some type of meaning or could it have been from a real life experience?

When I was a very, very young child, I witnessed violence when my father beat up my mother. I have always seemed to live a "fight of flight" state and I have always been afraid of someone breaking in my house and hurting me - particularly while I sleep.

In kindergarten I remember telling my classmates that my father chased my mother around a chest of drawers with a knife in his hand. It is strange, but I don't remember an incident like that, but I remember telling my friends about it.

Thanks for your help!

I really need some answers here, so I appreciate your help!

I was watching this programme once and there was this kid who was using braile to read, however he was born deaf and blind. How did he learn to do this? because it's not as if people can show him how to read braile as he is blind, and nor can he be told how to read braile since he is deaf. I am not taking this piss or anything, I am genuinely curious as to how they do this? It is quite remarkable and just goes to show what humans can achieve despite great disabilities in their life.
