My head spins (well, almost), my heart beats faster, and I feel cold and hot at the same time. I also get kinda drowsy, my fingers shiver a little and I just want to be touched warmly or crawl somehwere warm and keep my head down.

I am not on to drugs, and have never been. I used to get this sometimes in a much milder form when I was in school, but now I'm in my early twenties and I got this after a relatively long time. Something nasty did happen, but I didn't have to get this for that! I became confident after leaving school, so I don't know why this happened to me again.

Help!

Of the over 35 million Hispanics counted in the Federal 2000 Census, 47.9% identified as white (termed "white Hispanic" by the Census Bureau); 42.2% "Some other race"; 6.3% Two or more races(from Wikipedia)

Is this the answer? I am not really sure!
Spanish from spain,Italian are white Hispanic.
over 95% Argentine, Uruguay( mostly Spanish and Italian origin)
are white Hispanic.

mestizo, Amerindians are non-white Hispanic (so mostly Mexicans are non-white Hispanic)

I am a person that seems to almost always make the wrong decision. But I know that I am a good and caring person to anyone that I meet. How do I forgive myself, and stop remembering past memories that I feel that I have chosen wrongly.

GROUNDBREAKING STUDY SHOWS NEED FOR UNBIASED DOMESTIC VIOLENCE SERVICES
http://www.heritagenewmedia.com/mrosenthal031307.htm

The study describes 190 male callers to a domestic violence hotline, men from all walks of life who found that resources for males seeking help with an abusive female partner are virtually nonexistent. It appears to be common for abusive wives to use controlling behaviors, and they are especially prone to using their children as pawns to control their husbands. And federally funded shelters and hotlines commonly deny services to men.

The study is here:

http://www.springerlink.com/content/a7q0032j88817218/fulltext.pdf

Includes cases such as:

“She stabbed me with a knife, and I didn’t even defend
myself, and after I got out of the hospital two weeks
later, the court tells me to go to a group they say is for
victims. It turns out to be for batterers and I am expected
to admit to being an abuser and talk about what I did to
deserve getting stabbed.”

I don't understand why guys call the sex hotline numbers. Do they not realize that the lady on the phone may not be that sexy that she just has a sexy voice but may be real unattractive or even obese. Plus why would you want to pay for that 2 or 3 dollars a minute to talk to someone you don't know.

I want to find a poem that deals with gender, I just thought feminist poems might narrow it down. Links would be great if possible.

why do people care if someone want's to kill themself? It may seem sefish to some people for someone to kill themself, but if those people care so much they should want them to be happy. I understand why they try to stop them from kill them over something stupid like if the person want to kill themself over something stupid like ther boy friend or girl friend brokeup with them or sumthing like that. I don't want to sound mean but I just want to know. sorry if I affended aneone.
