Social Science - 20 February 2007

In the US, women can't be in front line combat, and can't get drafted. This is sexist.

Nothing makes me less draftable than my male friends and my boyfriend. I merely lack a Y chromosome. If you're going to have a draft, pick your quota and have it be half male, half female. Then put women on the front lines.

We can't cherrypick what defines equality. I have seen no feminists trying to get rid of traditional female advantages.

First off, in the interest of equality, if we want to have equality we should let men devote themselves to being fathers.

Second, if women are going to go have careers (which I fully support) someone has to take care of the kids, you know?

Are there any feminist/masculist organizations that support stay-at-home fathers, or any recently passed laws to help?

Is there anything I as a teenage girl can do to try and help the cause? My dad raised me until I was four, when he had to get a job. I think he did a damn fine job.

I got to thinking about what society seems to push upon us: Have a family, have a house...society seems to want to tie us down. Am I way off base on this? Am I viewed as odd because I viewed this from outside of "the norm"?

how do you be happy? and when you think you're happy, how come it still doesn't feel like it's enough? can you be happy with someone? i always thought you can't make someone happy, they have to be happy by themselves but thats not how everyone else thinks. My life is so hectic right now (university, working, boyfriend, family, etc) and I don't know how to keep myself happy.

Why do single women almost always hang out in groups, whether it is at a mall or club/bar or social events? I can understand the reason for security (i.e. to protect themselves from jerks confronting them) & also the reason for just having a good time, like guys do too.

But women have to realize that hanging out in groups intimidate a lot of men from approaching them. Even the man who is confident or brave enough to approach a woman he finds attractive, is more likely to be a bad or abusive jerk. A good-natured, intelligent man with a high-paying job that women crave for is generally not confident in approaching a woman when she's in a group. They feel that it is indecent to single out a person from a group & then getting laughed at by the group, upon rejection - I'm speaking from personal experience & friends' opinions.

My two coworkers and myself went to lunch at my house. In real life I am very easy going with my home and all are welcome and everyone knows where the cups, utensils and food is, and nothing is off limits, the same was true in the dream. I realized that we were late getting back from work and we all tried to sneak in through a stairwell, but the stairwell was no longer connected to the building. That's it

In its purest form, a smile is an open sign of friendliness or happiness. But in the animal kingdom, showing teeth can be a sign of aggression. Are there any human cultures on earth where a smile is not a sign of friendliness?

An example of differences would be nodding to mean yes. In some eastern European cultures nodding actually means no. But is a smile truly universal?
