I'm a 25 year old (male) virgin myself, and I was wondering what percentage of the U.S. population, above 25, had never had sex or ever had a girlfriend/boyfriend. There's obviously no way to objectively tally this, but I do want to hear your speculations.

I think about 10% of guys above 25 never had sex or dated.

I think about 12% of girls above 25 never had sex or dated.


What do you speculate the figures are? This is for a psychology class.

I am taking a class called Theory of Motivation and am particularly interested in the nature/nurture concept. Nature/nurture itself is far too broad. I need something within that that I can write 8 pgs on. Please not too biology oriented. Thanks.

I sorta have a speech problem. I have always talked fast, I can't seem to help it, and as a result I stumble over words sometimes. I also stutter with some sounds and some words I can't even say because it's so hard to. I work in retail and when I say the total, there are some number combonations that are hard to say, like 2.66. The 2 part is fine but getting the 66 part out is hard. When I get nervous it's really bad because I talk even faster and get my words mixed up. I'm going to be getting a new job soon and I really need to have good communication skills. When I was younger I went to a speech therapist and they told me that I did have a speech problem after we went though different sounds. For some reason I never went back and I can't afford something like that now. I was just wondering if there was a website or book that had similar therapies and exercises that they use when treating speech problems.

I just got out of college a few years ago... when I compare my career experience to that of others in my field (paralegal) who do the same tasks it seems like I'm not making nearly what I'm worth, and that I am MUCH more active throughout the workday.... furthermore, I've gotten into a problem where basically I've been competing with my boss for work (so then my boss claims that my performance is sub-par to the big boss to muscle me out). This has evolved into a deep personal problem --- I feel lousy and incompetent - even though nobody's complained about my work who's truely on the "recieving" end of it, now I'm getting told I'm doing a bad job, and every day is just terrible.

Any professional counselors that can help ppl develop some human capital or just give good advice for situations like this... I I hate knowing when you look at the avg or the norm I'm way off the curve as far as $$$/productivity goes and furthermore the office politics are getting just plain hateful.

Can you remain friends with someone who is not exactly 'smart'. Even though you know their actions thoughts are not intentional, do you not get mad frequently when they behave irrationally or say/do illogical things?

I've sort of come to the conclusion that it is almost fruitless to try to economize on small items, since the time that you waste is seldom worth it. I'm at the point in my profession where my spare time is at a premium, so it's really hard to justify clipping coupons or chasing down sales when the time could be used more productively. It kind of goes against my upbringing to not be thrify and a smart consumer, but I really can't justify the time cost of "thriftiness". Does anyone have any web links or advice for the extremely busy consumer?

People said I don't listen. In class I can't pay attention to the teacher that much. The only time I pay attention is when I'm taking notes, but then I forget what I was learning.
