My brother keeps throwing things at me, bad mouth me and denies it when I get on him about it. His reply, "I didn't even do anything. Iwas walking by." Then he tells me to shut up. His constant abuse is defended by his mommy by telling me to ignore him. Friends say the same thing, saying by ignoring it he'll get tired of it when there's no reaction and then he'll stop. stop. BS!!!! He keeps doing it because it's being allowed. I tried to ingnore it, but it just goes on and one. How can I get my point across that such behavior shouldn't be tolerated? I, personally think part of it is fear. They're afraid to say anything 'cause the abuse I get will happen to them.
You'll put a stop to a child when one's out of line, so why put up with it from older kids and adults?

This might be a stupid problem but lately im feeling .....feminin, if thats the word. Before id be into watching some "Die Hard" and now id rather watch "The Notebook" and films like that. I know it sounds stupid but i'm serious. A few months ago when i felt down, id like to punch someone and now i want someone to hug me or something. Really i feel like i might be losing my testosterone. Theres this girl i like and instead of going getting over it, i find myself texting her till like 2 in the morning wondering when am going to catch her up here again. Wtf is going on ?

As a child I did something sexual that I am not proud of. Even though I clearly remember and do not think I am traumatised by it, but I am not sure if it has some influence on my life. Can I be affected by it (could it be manifesting itself in some way) even though it was self-inflicted?

Why do people lie? Especially when they know they will get caught.

Only reference I can even find to something like this is the myth about the Amazons in Greece. There is no scientific evidence to reinforce the myth of a warrior-woman dominated society, to date.

How is it that blue collar employees can be proud of what they do? I have a neighbor that won't let her kids play with the children of laborers since she says that they will learn bad habits and , in her words, grow up to be "losers". She has been telling me that these people should hide their heads in shame, I'm not so sure?

into 2 spun kids (both under 2 1/2) when she gets home. She does not like to eat before going to sleep, some type of diet no-no so I am told, she could care less about flowers, candy or other material junk. I work my 40+, make dinner for the kids at night and have them ready for bed when she gets home (she is a gymnastics coach so she works until later in the evening since the kids she coaches are in school all day) Before she loved dressing in lingerie 4-5 times a week and the attention she would get by being in it, but the kids have sucked the life out of any type of spontinaity, dont know, something about getting 2 toddlers to bed after dealing with teenagers all evening kills the want to do anything but watch some tv and go to bed. Any recomendations would be appreciated. Back/foot rub? Drawn bath? mixed drink? running out of ideas.

Vulcans are emotionless. Well technically, they have emotions, they just hide them really well. How could someone go about achieving this state of being?

Seriously.

I think (hope) most women are really friendly and not catty at all.
And I hope its just a minority of women who ***** about others, like really badly diss (best not use bad language) someone?

Some women come across as so unfriendly but they must be uncommon?

I mean, not that you would actually do it but don't most of us, regardless of whether we would do it or not have the thought cross our minds during times of despair?
