Whereas, in similar circumstances, a male who also has kids probably WILL get the death penalty? A woman in my area has been convicted of a second murder while using the same method - antifreeze poisoning in the victim's food - that she used in the first murder. The jury heard an emotional appeal from her mother, and then gave her life imprisonment without parole. Both murder victims were men, of whom one was the father of her two children. The other one was her BF. Both had large life insurance policies of which she was the beneficiary. This, according to the prosecution, was her motive.

I want to draw attention to the most insightful and intelligent answer I've seen on here recently, from a thread about strong women, by Croa, it was chosen as best answer, obviously:

http://au.answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20070326125245AAtFMtN&r=w&show_comments=true&pa=FZB6NWHjDG3N56z6v_2zWewLa4TJTR7N5diim9AsyZo0yxlcw1wGuw--&paid=add_comment#openions

"If you ever are blessed enough to watch a woman give birth then you'll KNOW that a strong woman is the most beautiful, sexy, alive creature in the world."

Exxxaaaccctlyy. Croa you are my new hero. I hope the misogynists on here are listening to this. We have a way to convince them their thinking is deluded now!!

So, for anyone who ever doubted us feminists, here is a video of a woman giving birth, to prove we were right about EVERYTHING:

So, now what do you think?! and for the other feminists, please tell everyone exactly why this is proof that strong women are the most beautiful!!

By artistic I don't mean only painters, but any artistic outlet which requires passion, emotion and creativity. Are they better able to channel that same intense emotion and passion when making love as opposed to someone who does not have any artistic/creative talents?

I 20 years old and i was a bulling vicitm from 5 to 8th grade of my grade school. Then came high school and for the first 2 years i was verbally abused by 4 class idiots. I have erected a wall around me so nobody can hurt me that much any more. Dont get me wrong , i have quite a number of good friends, most of them from that class. Over the years i became introverted, shy , stuck up, very serious boy who flares up when somebody verbaly challenges me. I dont have strong personality and my friends know that , they are good people who whis me all the best but I know that they don't respect me as much as they wolud if I was a strong personality. I didnt had a grilfirend cause of that and. I'm simply afraid that I wolud reject her with my anti-social behaviour. What to do , how to overcome all of this ??

PLEASE just don't write answers like "just be/love yourself" or "go to therapy" . I wish to fix these problems on my own.
