the same about sexist ads, literature, and speeches? Should sexist ads be outlawed, like racist ads, literature and speeches?

For example, for a number of years (in the late 1980's) there was an ad for the Ku Klux Klan outside of a small town, off an interstate, near a large city. It wasn't taken down, it fell down.

I'm not suggesting they can't meet, the Klan still marches in that town and many other cities nearby, when they perform Klan "recruitments". They are well protected by the police.

He says he prefers to work, but he still does not go out there to look for work. I have insisted that he look for a job, at least any job, until he can get something he is qualified for, instead he watches TV, and hangs out with his friends. Is this a phase with young men? Do they want to idle their life away instead of accepting adulthood? What should I do about the situation?

I have many difficulties considering expressing my personality, mostly due to my father who was a person of almost no words, almost never spoke to me and only spoke to me when I've done something wrong. Mother lacked any dignity and supported every **** he did. I am working in a VERY criticising environment ( a scientific research department) and being pretty doesn't help me AT ALL, people judge me from the get-go and label me as a bimbo before I have a chance to open my mouth. In the past I acted very naive by trusting everyone so you can imagine that there were quite a few guys that hurt me deeply, not to mention girls that were supposed to be my friends.
I would like to learn how to express my inner. People always told me that they could swear there is so much more behind my closed shell and I guess there is, I am just so affraid to express it. I do have my own mind but I rarely have something to say. Not because I am stupid.

Call me naive, but are there women out there that actually enjoy being an escort or is it just women that are down on their luck or trying to support a drug habit or something similar? I can't see the logic that this is something that a woman would enjoy this. Also, wouldn't she become numb down there or at least "dry" if having several encounters in a day? Again forgive me for being naive!

I have completed my studies, good job, property, car, children, but yet still she is not happy for me. She constantly puts me down. She would prefer that I am dependent on her constantly, which I can't. I enjoy being independent. She tries to control my life in all aspects. I have tried to talk to her about the matter, but she does not listens. She acts as if I am still a child. I don't want to resort to cruel words or be harsh in any way. What can I do to let her understand my independency and control of my home, especially my children? She has gone out of the way so many times to embarass me in front of family, friends, co-workers. How can I love her as a mother when she does these things? We communicate, but we are not close.

"the spirit of which I speak. Memorable ideas sprang from it: “life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness”…“created equal”… “government of, by, and for the people”…“the only thing we have to fear is fear itself”…“I have a dream.” Those were transformational epochs in American politics, brought forth by the founding patriots who won our independence, by Lincoln and his Lieutenants who saved the Union, by Franklin Roosevelt who saved capitalism and democracy, and by Martin Luther King, martyred in the struggle for equal rights. These moments would have been lost if left to transactional politics—the traditional politics of “You scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours.” But moral leadership transcended the realities at hand and changed the course of our history.

Never have we been more in need of transformational leadership.

America’s a great promise but it’s a broken promise."
Bill Moyers
