Social Science - 28 November 2006

I know I may get thumbs down for this question but I have to ask it any way.
How many gals out there would like for the guys in your life (husbands, bf, fathers, brothers, bosses, friends, or whatever) to once every year or so have a visit from "Auntie Flo" ? Don't you think it would make them better able to understand what it is like for us?
And wouldn't it be fun to watch them have pms, double over with cramps and pain, blot, and generally be miserable for 3 to 7 days a month?
Yes I know some guys act like they have pms every month but they have no idea do they ladies? lol
How well do you think they could take it? Would they be so fast to tell us to get over it the next month when it was our turn again? Or would they be such babies about it that they would refuse to get out of bed the entire time? lol

Did anyone read roachy’s question earlier about taking a photo of his daughter’s first time in the swimming pool. He was accused of being a pedophile by one of the staff
That was shocking and I want to keep this subject alive because the world has gone mad. So many guys are suffering this ignominy nowadays and it hurts
Read my incident

I'm one of the few dads where I live who goes out on the square and plays with my kid and also his friends when they join in. I organise them into a game or do some spin arounds the way little kids like. Have done so for a couple of years and seen the kids all growing up and had them in and out of the house with an open door policy and it’s been great.
One day recently though I was out play fighting with my boy One of his little girl friends wanted to join in and we had a great laugh the two of them hanging off me while I tried to escape. Then a fella who had been looking over for a while (her dad I think or an uncle possibly) who I'd never seen out playing with the girl in the last 2 years that I've had her in and out of my house, calls her away and stops her game and makes her play in her front garden instead. Just like that. No stroll over and introduce himself and find out how his daughter knows me. No, no courtesy at all. Just an accusing eye, and accusing mind and an action that cut me really deep, because I knew exactly what was going through his mind and it made me feel sick and physically upset me to the point that I had to go inside and go to bed
He didn't seem to care where his daughter was for two years when he's getting free child minding in mine and everyone else’s houses at the weekend and evenings while he goes to the pub and doesn't play with her
Actually writing about this now is bringing it all back and I remember how painful it felt to know what he was thinking of me. Do you know to this day I still haven't been able to go back out and play with all the kids together again no matter how many times my kid asks me I just can’t do it and that makes me really sad
Why are people so insular now that they would rather think that of me than get to know me as a neighbour
It is sickening

So am I right or am I oversensitive to the issue ?

Alright, it might not really sound like something serious but it bothers me a lot and I hope that someone can give me some useful tips.
I am actually pretty confident and have somewhat self-esteem. But whenever I talk to people I don't know or if I'm in the middle of all attention or something like that, I immediately turn red. Even if I don't feel shy or inconfident at all. I just feel the redness coming up my face and so many people told me "hey you're blushing". It's annoying and I wanna do something about it. HELP PLEASE!!!

All I hear about is free trade is good because it keeps prices so low, but the people working over seas, only make like 30 cents a hour. Would ending free trade make America better, and force forighn countries to strive to be more like us ?

What I mean is, some of my former female friends have disappeared in tough times, not boyfriends, and this one has never even hinted he was going to bounce.
How do you resolve it? Time will tell, but I'm hoping to keep this at bay and not wear down my dear while Time does its thing...

I am, I eat as many as I can. I can understand people not eating meat because of concerns about how it is reared, but not because they are special in some way. If we look at a lion cub we think ahhh, sweet. If a lion looks at a baby, it thinks 'ahh, lunch'.
Humans have it worng.

I don't know if I have a seriouse condition or what is going on but ever since I could remeber I could read a person's mind. Like when I was 12 I told a woman that her husband tonight was going to beat her to death if she didn't leave. I told her what kind of shirt he he wore the day before when he hit her and where he hit her and the scars she still had on her body. I didn't EVEN KNOW HER. Then my boyfriend and I were talking and he told me he had a grandma, all of sudden I was telling him the house his grandma use to have in vegas, how she died, and everything(more things I explained to him) BUT HE NEVER TOLD ME ANYTHING ABOUT HER BUT HER NAME
PLEASE HELP
I am a psychology major but i can't explain this one.

i am just wondering..i argued with a classmate of mine, we both had different views and i was keep on saying things which were the reality..she wasnt letting me speak nor she was trying to understand what i was trying to say...all she was doing was give her views...
why dont people let another person say anything so they can listen to their view and think and answer, rather then not understand the reality and say something which is far nt true

Health care is expensive because the vast majority of Americans consume it as if it were free.

At 14, I declared myself an Equalist.
Yeah, egalitarian, I know. :)
So, are there any such publications? Classes? We know there are hormonal swings in men, too, so some people have done isolated studies for men's sakes...
