Social Science - 12 January 2007

I discovered that after I experience deep shock or sadness, or after anything very negative or touching, I end up being unusually happy or hyper.

Isn't this common to most people? Does anyone know what the name of this kind of psychology is?

It seems women are a bit more prudish when it comes to watching a movie or looking at pictures than men are, why is this?

I don't care if my boyfriend watchs porn (sometimes, I start the movie), I enjoy porn, some of it's really funny. So, why do I feel like I'm in the minority?

My friend had this dream the other night and while I'm normally pretty good at dream interpretation, I'm drawing a blank on this one.

She dreamt that she had two kittens, one was black and white, she couldn't see the color of the other one. The kittens were declawed and freshly spayed, they still had shaved and stitched tummies. She tells me she had a distinct air of innocence from them. In particular, she thought it was odd to have an entire dream devoted to kittens, and with kittens generally representing trouble, but these being "innocent", I'm a bit confused.

I'd like to hear someone's take on this.

Would you confront him? I feel insulted like he thinks I'm so stupid that I believe everything he says. I know it's TOTALLY his problem, but I'm getting really aggravated!

I've been told several times that i'm good looking but that i'm too quiet. One thing about me is that I enjoy working out alot so when you look at me you'll see well shaped man. Sometimes being "buff" has its downfalls b/c I feel ackward because of my big shoulders and arms. Maybe people think i'm conceded! What do you think when you see someone in shape and strong?

My friend and I are actually doing our psychology final on dreaming. We're trying to present some interesting information that most people don't know aboutl I really want to know what can make me dream tonight? My friend just said that eating sweets right before she goes to bed makes her dream. If anyone knows of any proven facts or whatever, I'd appreciate that info.

Thank you!

This is a very sensitive topic. I'm not very popular in junior high, I only have one good friend, none of the girls like me, they never have, they think I'm weird. I've been looking at porn for a while, but recently, none of the girls like me, so I actually viewed underage girls on a file sharing program (Not on the internet) because I was curious. I finally snapped into it and realized how dirty, discusting, and wrong it was. I guess it's like smoking (not that I do) you know it's wrong but you don't realize how wrong it is. I have a guilty conscience, and I feel terrible about it. I feel like I don't deserve to live because of what i've done. I'm now really depressed but I can't tell ANYONE. Suffering from guilt is a terrible punishment. I don't know what to do. I've removed everything I could possibly get porn on my computer and stopped. I know some of you have daughters out there and would like to shoot me right now. I guess I just got curious and tempted and did the wrong thing.

I have been depressed about the last half a year. I've always had a feeling of worthlessness and felt that i was never good enough for anybody, but it wasnt as bad as it is now. I've recently been going out with a girl for about a year and a half, i broke up with a little less than 2 days ago. This is like the 20th time with broken in the last few months. I found out she slept with 3 guys, and caught an std. She lied to me and did while i knew she was with them, she turn off her phone, i beg her not to anything, but she did anyway. I recently found out all the truth within the last two months. I've tried to work it with her but i dont think i can forgive her. I feel completly crushed, and want her back. I dont know were to turn i feel as if everybody is sick trying to help me. I feel so alone, and just want to jump of a building, i keep turning to liquor and adderall, to numb some of away. What should i do, i've scheduled a appointment with a theapist, but its 2 weeks away.

My mom lives with me and she is usually like a two year old! Her first answer to any question is NO! I want her to be happy but sometimes her attitude gets to me! She wasn't like this before, she's 78 almost 79 and just a grouch! She has everything and more than she needs but I just do know! An example, tonight we had Bar B Q for dinner and my husband just asked her if her food was good and she yelled, This is my food, like he asked for some or something. I would really like some serious answers and maybe some coping stategies! Another example is this morning when I was leaving for work, I simply asked her to lock the door behind me because it was 4 degrees and I was bundled up w/the gloves and all and it's difficult to use a key to lock the door, mind you, for her safety as well, and she said, Why can't you lock it yourself even though she was sitting two feet from the door so I did just that! Maybe it's me but she is really frustrating at times and I don't know what to do.

Yes or no only. Be honest.

I just want to see if I can get a feel for how many racist people there are. I know this is an inaccurate way of finding out but I just wanted to see.

White people only please. No prejudice meant just to keep it clear.

My answer is yes by the way.

I know they had fire and animal skins and clothes to keep them warm, but I'm sure they still would've been really cold. Where I'm at its minus 15 degrees Fahrenheit, and even with gloves, a jacket, and all the winter gear I'm still cold. How did they handle the cold?
