Social Science - 26 September 2007

I just asked for some feedback on helping a person close to me in regards to how to approach her on the subject. With the replies that I have been given, I wonder now, why it is entirely up to the person to help themselves...the help is needed in other areas. What areas would you consider to be helpful?

Do they shift the blame for normal every day problems onto the man.
"It's the man's fault" for everything. Just about anything can be blamed on men.

Ever since I was about 13, I have eaten specific foods with one purpose, and one purpose only : to smell my own flatulence.

For what it's worth, I find the flatulence of others repulsive beyond belief. However, I love mine to the point that I have skipped social outings with others just to stay at home alone and inhale my scents.

Is this a common condition?

The suffragettes in Britain were the founders of feminism, following in the footsteps of Wat Tyler and the peasants' revolt. They campaigned for the vote for men and women at a time when neither men nor women were allowed to vote unless they owned property. These were brave people and many of them lost their lives in the struggle.

Inevitably these ideas were exported to the US. And, just as inevitably, these ideas were corrupted, notably by extremist zealots at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. These were the very same pseudo-intellectuals as promoted political correctness and invented the car bomb.

These zealots cynically transformed honest feminism into an anti-social hate cult devoid of intellectual legitimacy.

Do you agree that this is what happened?

Hi,

I've had a stammer since i was little & it got worse when i wasn't interacting as much with people, my speech isn't physical, it's mental. I can talk with friends/family, alone, read, in front of groups, on camera & in front of female's so i definitely know there's something not right in my head or maybe just my thinking.

Would it help if i spoke about how i feel? Family says i should but i can't see how talking about stuff will help me, i know it's the mental side that's causing it but it's a mix of that & confidence. Who should i be speaking too? My therapist said someone who deals with Cognitive behavior.

I've tried a £3,500 fluency device which didn't help at all, i've tried the cheaper version, to same effect & i'v tried a £400 course (The Starfish Project) which worked well & is very intesne but i couldn't keep it up as old habbits crept in.

Thanks in advance, appreciate & will read all comments.

Okay,
I know this topic has been discussed plenty, but I want to make one clarification in hopes of more in-depth answers:

Dealing STRICTLY with the "sexual attraction" (NOT "sexual acts"), do you think pedophilia is genetic, acquired as a result of being abused, or a 'lifestyle choice'?

Obviously, it IS a choice to sexually abuse a child - but do people honestly "choose" to be attracted to children?

Note: I am in no way trying to justify child molestation, but I want your thoughts on pedophiles who don't abuse children. Once again, I'm talking ONLY about the attraction, NOT sexual acts with children.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you think it is absurd for pedophiles who don't abuse children to want to gain acceptance? Should more effort be put into "curing" the sexual attraction, rather than condemning it?

PS: Intelligent answers only please...obviously sex with children is sick ...but that is outside the realm of this question.
