Okay, I'm not trying to make any stero types or racial judgements. This is just an innocent obsevation.

In general are black girls happier with their bodies than white girls? It seems that every time you see a movie, talk show or a celebrity of a girl/woman with an eating disorder they are white.
So do black girls have better self-esteem or body image than white girls?

Nicole Ritchie being the exception,
and yes there are a lot of races that I did not mention

How can I stop being so shy. I think I'm sending the wrong message to people ( that I don't wanna get to know them), but I really do). How can I get over my shyness and be outgoing?

Why do you think this has happened?
The number of abortions has steadily increased each year since abortion was made legal in 1973…until 1990. Oddly, there have been slight decreases of abortion each year since 1990. Do you think this has anything to do with the availability of the internet to the masses, where they can go to see the REAL, unwhitewashed facts about abortion? Up until then, just like everything else in our society, mothers in tough situations were basically at the mercy of the mainstream media and abortion “clinics” who were trusted to give unbiased information to women, even though the clinic was VERY financially motivated to make sure that the mother went through with the abortion? Your thoughts?

What causes a person to hear e.g. a recurring question for years. I've had a pretty eventful childhood but who hasn't right? Abuse of every kind from as far back as I can remember. I think I have a pretty ok handle on things but I can't shake the voices. A professional opinion would rock!

As a rule in traveling to other states, I have found that states where octane rating for regular unleaded gasoline is 87 cost, on average, the same as 85 octane gas in other states where that is the rating for regular unleaded. Why should this be? Shouldn't it be proportionally lower in cost?

Do you think they would be as highly criticized for their "We're ashamed George Bush is from Texas" comment? I want to know why Kanye West got away with his "George Bush doesn't care about black people" rant. Especially when he said this publically on MTV with millions watching and the Dixie Chicks said it at their private concert. So do you think their career would be over if they were men?

Because… I don’t.

If you were an employer, would you give more hours to the employee who has worked for 1.5 years, is trained and works in two areas of operation, and has no kids or husband to help support her or to the employee who has worked for less than but nearly 6 months, is trained and works in one area of operation, and has two kids and no husband to help support her? (both females and both have horrible financial situations and there are less than 20 hours available for either employee and neither have a second job)
