they can afford the cost of raising multiple children. plus hire nannies and whatnot.

no need to worry about the details of transporting so many kids, hire another chauffer!

it would stroke their ego immensely. prove their vitality.

exclusitivity

someone else can always buy a bigger yacht or a larger mcmansion.

not many people can join the "raising 20+ kids" club.

passing on their genes. why create a legacy when you only have three kids to leave it to? have 20+ kids and lord over a dynasty

blah blah i cheated.
blah blah my aunt touched me...
blah blah are women dumb............

amuse me people - tell me to get a life and hurt me with your insults...................

Does it make you feel better to judge people who don't think like you? The more you get upset, the harder real people on here laugh at you. I am aware that you are not self aware so you are all unable to see this, . . . but it makes for funny reading...so knock yourself out... '-))))

I finally found a roommate and I'm moving in with her next month. I've lived alone the past 3 years, since living on my own, so I've never shared a place with anyone as an adult. I'm excited, anxious, and also kind of scared about this. Is this normal? I'm sure it will be fun, and I'm looking forward to it, but I hope we get along for the majority of the time and that nothing goes wrong because I would hate to have to move or for my things to get stolen or destroyed. I don't know, I'm just a little paranoid about my stuff, and if bad feelings ever come between us?! The girl is an aquaintence of mine, I know her from an old job, but we're still in the getting to know each other "for real" phase. Are these feelings normal?! What do you think? Thanks.

I know I did. I didn't really even know what I was doing but I knew I would get in trouble if I was caught doing it. I wonder why that is and how that is. How did I know it was wrong, but didn't see it as wrong?

Only to show the bright side of Islam about marital conditions.
I am a Muslim man who always prayed for a good Muslim woman to have and treasure as my wife. Alhamdulellah, I was granted this wonderful wife whom I would never trade for the world. She is every thing to me. I never forced Hijab on her but she came around on her own free will only 3 months after the wedding. I am twice as proud of her for all what she represents as a good Muslim woman. Your feedback please.

CALL FOR RUNNING OF THE COWS
http://au.news.yahoo.com/070710/13/13xkd.html
There are calls for a new version of the famous Pamplona bull-run to be conducted for women only - with cows replacing bulls.

Although women are allowed to take part in the San Fermin bull-run, very few are game enough to take on 600kg bulls, according to a student website that is supporting calls for the new event.

You see? Women are being discriminated against by the bulls being too big and women are just as capable of being in this event as men are, so something needs to be done to eliminate this discrimination.

The women's event will replace men and bulls with cows. It will be called RUNNING OF THE COWS. What else will this event need to be made female friendly and politicially correct?

I've been reading a book called "Backlash" recently and it has a whole chapter listing all the movies in the 80s and reasons why they are all anti-feminist.

The author claims that Pretty Woman is an anti-feminist film because the main character played by Julia Roberts gives up her career to become a companion to the character played by Richard Gere.

So what do you think, should we burn all copies of the patriarchally oppressive Pretty Woman on this basis?

I always, always, ALWAYS have this dreams that water is going to engulf me. It often is a tsunami that appears from nowhere, and I have nowhere to run. Sometimes I wake up before the water hits. On occasion the water pours over me and I hold my breath while I am smashed beneath the waves.
Sometimes it will occur as a flash flood. I will be in a room and water is seeping through the windows and doors, getting higher and higher. I have a feeling that this symbolizes my inability to control my stress or situations. Does anyone have these dreams or any insight???

Yes I realize this is not dating & singles.
I want to know from our men here, how do you feel.

Now we all know that often, dates are made to be female friendly so that you can reach whatever goal you may have.
But lets say this time....its all you....we play by your rules, you decide everything down to the last detail.
Who will pay ?
where will you go?
what will you do?
will there be sex ?
will she stay the night, or leave?
will you call her, or do you expect her to call you?
Your ideal perfect date....lets see whatcha got ???

They seem to go through a short period where they coomplain less than usual. But then it is back to the piss and moan phase? Is this genetic or os it hormonal? Can it be controlled with drugs or electroshock?

Seriously what would it take for women to quit complaining? Is this even possible?

They do me. I just sometimes wonder why they are so quiet and what is going on in their mind. I hate having to probe people for information. Please share from either side of the fence.

I lost a friend and i never got to tell him how i felt.I had a crush on him kind of.But now that he's gone i like him more (You never know what you got until its gone).It's been hard not having him around and knowing that i could have spent more time with him but i didnt.Now that he's gone it's been so hard.I cry almost everyday because i miss him so much.I want to die to see him again but i don't want to feel the pain or leave some of my friends behind and go through what i'm going through.I guess that sounds selfish but i can't help it.I want to see a therapist or a counsler but im too scared to tell my mom or dad because i think they might think im crazy for still dwelling over this

As I was crawling through the attic to do a cable install, I saw a little door and through it I heard something thumping really loud as if it were going after me. As I got down and was driving I noticed it was a Lion. It did not attack me but was chasing me. What does this mean????
