For example... motorcycle dudes covered in tats... powerful corporate executives... bald guys with gotees... "street"-looking tough chicks... muscular guys... people with certain physical characteristics... old people.... quiet people... kids (I once knew a 22 year-old girl who was intimidated by children). What kind(s) of people scare you/freak you out... and why? Thanks for answering!

This day of age women are as they should be regarded equal to men. Something I have noticed tough, there are two roles in society. Provider and caretaker. I havent met anyone who is good at both. I was made to be a provider and noticed I am around other providers where as my brother seems to be surrounded by caretakers and is also a caretaker. Are my assumptions right? Does this make sense?

They created fire... they created the wheel, they created FedEx, and now they're taking over our Credit Cards.

While I live in my cave, nothing but the crackling fire, freshly killed dodo bird, and my new Alienware laptop, I realize just how smart I really am... I did it, I did it all...

So now I have taken off my loincloth, baring myself to the world as the smartest man alive... for I am a caveman...

What's in your wallet?

Ever since I was a kid I knew that death would come. I am not afraid of death. I see no reason to be afraid of something that will eventually come. Am I alone in my thinking or are there others out there?

Today, 30% of DNA paternity tests, nearly one in three, prove that the man involved is not the father of the child in question:

http://www.rense.com/general51/chsup.htm

With ~4M children born per years, this means 1.2M Men every year are victims of paternity fraud.

This also means that 1.6M men are paying child support for children that are not theirs.

Feminists are trying to outlaw paternity testing:

http://www.michnow.org/patact.htm

With child support fitting the definition of peonage or slavery:

http://antipeonage.0catch.com/

"Peonage is thus legally required labor to pay a debt or obligation."

Why are feminists, represented by the body the National Organisation for Women trying to outlaw protections for men from paternity fraud?

Are these the actions of a movement in support of equality and social justice?

Do the beautiful girls know that they are really beautiful? Do the comments of others boost their ego and give them a pump? Do they feel above average? Does it effects their ego and do they feel proud that they are beautiful? Do they take advantage of their beauty at one point or another?

Before I ask my question, I want to tell anyone who is going to make a snide remark to just leave- I don't need it. Ok. Here we go. Ok, to start out, my question is how to balance my individuality and my unique self while still mainting, out of unfortunate necessity, a 'normal' self. Let me explain. I am a really strange individual, in a good way in my opinion, but I need a way to control it. I know this sounds like a weird question, but, hang with me. People tell me I am two things- the most amazing person they've ever met and/or the weirdest. I'm buy a Roman Military outfit to wear. Yup. Can't wait to get it in the mail. In that outfit I'll be 6'6''. Anyway. I have tried supressing this...me-ness before, and it never goes well- I get sick, as in literally ill if I'm not myself. I'm a very intelligent person, just I need to find a way to be able to go to a dinner with someone without finding myself on a rant on the properties of circles. How can I do this? I'm gonna add details...

What do you think about men's rights groups who believe there is sexism against men (but also believe in equality)? Do you believe it is sexist to support equality by supporting men's rights as well as women's, rather than just supporting women's rights?

I had a dream that I was remodeling an old townhouse in the middle of a ghetto. I took my girlfriend with me, she was helping me with the job. So, I guess we got tired or something, we fell asleep. When I woke up in the dream, my girl was missing. I grabbed two 22 pistols that were on display, and checked to see if they were loaded then I went searching for her. When I found her, she was inside a glass box of some sort tied up and gagged. I broke her out, and then a big 500 pound black man came into the room. I pointed my 22's at him. He just laughed and said you cant do anything with those! Then he pulled out a diamond plated GLOCK. What the F*CK? O well. I shot him about 10 times and he died. We got out of the building, I couldnt find my car so we took someone elses and I was going to take my girl home then come back to finish the job for some odd reason. But I forgot to take her home. I went straight back there. On the way in, there were huge orange styrofoam pads on the telephone pole in front of a TON of abandoned cars but I couldnt figure out why. So, when I came back, some crazy hill-billy woman threw some sort of spear with razor wire attached, it wrapped around the styrofoam pad, and then it just tightened up and the pad blew up into millions of pieces & started falling down. Then I woke up.
