There are some men on yahoo answers who are constantly compelled to show the great fear they have towards woman especially those who strive for equality. Why wouldn't these men go for professional therapy to deal with these feelings of inferiority they so obviously are having? Why do they see women as such a threat to their masculity?

Are those commercials with the cave man in them accurate? Would other human species, such as Homo Erectus, be treated poorly?

I sort of fear the rejection. I picked up 2 girls last year. When I asked their telephone number, they were all happy to say they will go out and have a cup of coffee with me. However, the second time I called them. They all changed their decision and hung up the phone. I surprisingly met my high school friend. She was happy to see me on the street and said she will definitely go out to have a cup of coffee with me. I called her a few time and sent a few emails. She replied my emails twice, but no more. We made an appointment. I went to the coffee shop, but she didn't attend. I called her, but no answer. Then, I called a number of times, but she hung up my calls. What were the problems? Ladies could you tell me. I am not the rapist. I am afraid to call her now. How can I overcome this fear?

This has only happened to me two or three times but I am concerned it might happen again. I will be sleeping soundly realized I am dreaming and wake myself up. However, when I do wake up my body is paralyzed I can only see what is going on around me and what I see is usually foggy...like looking through a dirty glass. This will go on for about 10 or 20 mins before I am able to pull myself out of this state. When I get out of this paralyzed state it's like surfacing after being under water for as long as you can bare.

I have lucid dreams a few times a month but this didn't seem anything like that. It was terrifying...being conscious but not able to move or respond....

Do I have any problem?

Why in spite of all the advancement in social sciences, psychology and Anthropology; We as humans tend to grow just more apart and the rift widens as time passes? Is it our human nature, conflict of interests or just my pessimism lol? I do believe in Anthropology as a way to promote understanding and to bring the different people of the world closer but why isn't that happenning !!!

I was just wondering about learning styles. I'm not retarted or anything, nor do I have a learning disablitiy. However, I can't handle being a full-time student at my university because I can't seem to put my focus on everything at once. I can be very focused if I only have to deal with a couple of things. I read an article found here: http://www.ldpride.net/learningstyles.MI.htm#Learning%20Styles%20Explained about learning styles and intelligences, but I don't really fit into one category.

So I guess my question is, is there something I can do to help me focus better because I really don't want to be in school forever. It's just this class room learning is really hard for me. I like hands on stuff and can't seem to sit still.

Thanks.

I know it a unusual fear but I don’t know how to deal with it. I know it’s stupid why you would be afraid to cross a bridge. It doesn’t make any sense but I am going on vacation soon and we are driving and I know were crossing bridges. I don’t have time or the money for a therapist so I need help. I get anxious a couple of weeks before I go the moment I get into the car the day of the trip all I can think about is when will we cross the first bridge I start to panic. Then when I actually when we cross the bridge I start sweating my heart feels like its going to pop out of my chest. I get dizzy and I can’t breathe as soon as I am over the bridge I am fine everything comes down and I can start to relax until the next bridge. I am not afraid of height or water so don’t know why bridges but your suppose to relax on vacation but all can think about is when I will have to cross the bridge when we drive home. I need a quick fix I only have a few days until we leave please help me.
