There's this girl at school, and I think she likes me but I'm not sure. She tries to make me laugh, and always asks me how I am, and is so nice to me. It sounds like a friendship, except that she gets really nervous around me, she stares and doesn't turn away when I catch her, and usually gets relatively close to me.

like a lady, or have the feminists ruined that aspect of men being civil and respectful towards women?

And, what is wrong with compilmenting a women who is dressed nice, hair well groomed, smells nice, looks pretty, without it being construed as being sexist?

Some women are prudes on this, does it make any difference if the man is good looking or not?

When a man says to a lady, You look pretty today, does not mean he is hitting on her. Does it?

I believe that the concept of a soul is just wishful thinking by humans who can not deal with the reality that they will simply not exist one day.

It is a way for the human being to tell itself that he will live forever.

It's illogical and unscientific.

We are completely and totally made up of DNA, atoms and chemicals which control us. Without those things we wouldn't exist.

The idea that our personalities somehow float around in Eternity is ridiculous.

My wife has shown strong prejudices against blacks, asians, and hispanics. It was extremely subtle ten years ago, not even noticable, but is now more pronounced. Her teenage boys occasionally tell her she is a racist. I have, in the past, written off my suspicions of her prejudice as oversensitivity on my part. ( I am Hispanic.) Several years ago, she admitted to me that she is prejudiced against Hispanics. I don't understand how she can justify that it is not a problem, or anything unusual. Her typical response to my questions about it is "many people feel like I do." The obvious implication is that because others feel likewise, there is nothing wrong with it. Why would someone want to marry someone from an ethnic minority when they are prejudiced against members of that group?

I'd like non-Britons to comment on this, too, so let me give a very brief outline, in case you're one of the few people who are lucky enough to have never heard of CBB. It involved a few B-list celebrities, who agreed to spend a few weeks in a house, live on camera. The latest series was generally perceived as boring, except for a dislike that three British, female contestants had for an Indian contestant (a Bollywood star, Shilpa), which led to allegations of bullying and racism.

The Bollywood star is an example of how women used to be in the West: old-fashioned, unreconstructed, feminine, flirtatious, coy about sex, classy, etc.

The three bullies, on the other hand are post-feminist, sexually liberated, careerist, with a conspicuous lack of subtlety or tact.

What I'd like to ask is, is the typical, post-feminist woman a disappointment?

(Unfair to use the two examples above only, as Shilpa is better than average for an old-fashioned gal; and the terrible trio are worse than avg.

I know that a quiz doesn't take the place of a bonafide medical diagnosis, but I am curious if any such quizzes are around as indicators. The only ones I have come across thus far are centered around children and teens.

Okay my head feels like it is going to explode. Whenever I see something or just start thinking about it my mind just blows it up a hundred times. I don't have ADD and I had my head scanned twice. This just started and I don't know why. I mean it feels like I could blow up something with how much pressure builds up in my head.

Lets say I am thinking about a cat I can see it and hear it and turn it around and everything i know about cats comes up. It just builds up and I have to shut down and then start up again.

I woefully sorry that I voted for Bush. This healthcare idea of his is a nightmare waiting to happen. What is this about Masscheusetts having to require everyone to have health ins? That does not sound good either. I don't think we need the government to oversee the healthcare problem either. For seniors medicare is good but is woefully inadquate and us that still work can only hope that we have a high dollar job that pays for more than half the premium for a decent health plan. And those in lower incomes can only pray that they don't get sick or if they do that it will be something they can just "tough" out. I am fortunate to live in Dallas. At least Dallas has the Parkland System which treats low income and no income patients. Needless to say that system is carries a terrible overload on it's resources. Folks I know there is a better way we as ordinary citizens need to put our heads together & come up with a solution and stop looking for the government to do it.

I don't know what it is. Can't really explain it. I'm 17 years old right now. I'm turning 18 in March.
I don't know. I feel like something's wrong. Something's missing in my life. I feel a great loss. I feel sad and depressed almost everyday. I've lost hope in my future. I feel useless. My grades aren't too good in school. I'm getting Cs and Fs. I find myself doing a poor job in my school work. Sometimes I just walk around campus during classtime for no reason. I'm absent from school a lot. People tease me because I dress different. I dress like Marlon Brando from the movie, "The Wild One". People have thrown stuff at me and say things about me. I've talked to teachers about it. Even the principal. They've done nothing.
I'm bored most of the time at school. No friends. No girlfriend. I'm alone. My teachers say I've got Asperger's Syndrome, but I refuse to believe it. I feel normal.
I feel behind in life. I'm not driving yet. I'm not working yet. What about moving out?
