OK, I am a HUGE procrastinator and I know it. When I get home from school, I make a schedule and can never stick to it because if I finish past my time limit on an assignment according to the schedule, I just go to another thing and another and when I get nercous that i won't get anything done I don't do anything.

What are good ways to keep me in line and on task?

Is this a biological gender difference or due to sexism and society's expectations for women? What, if anything, can we do to change things that we have not done yet? Or will women always care more about managing the household than men?

I keep stumbling on Mafiagirl's silly stereotypes and hearsays in questions about marriage and parenthood secions. I am sure, she must have some knowledge on some other subjects, but relationships ( the commited kind ), marriage and parenthood are not that. Shouldn't we talk about the things we know?

lied about birth control and tricked you and got pregnant from you. She lied because she desperately wanted you to marry her before going abroad for your higher studies. You had no plans for marriage or parenting at least for the next 3 yrs in your life and you never did express ever that your girlfriend is your chosen partner in marriage.

Do all smokers have some sort of insecurity/issue or don't love and respect themselves all they could because why would they be slowly destroying their bodies?

I'm a smoker. Intellectually I know I need to give them up but can't seem to emotionally. I know it's *NOT* the physical addiction of nicotine because I can go for days without smoking.

I used to be afraid of living to a really, really old age, in some nursing home with bedspots without anyone who cared/loved me. I used to think that maybe it was this fear that is keeping me smoking. But I believe I have lost that fear and yet am still smoking. Just wondering what other reasons there might be.

Reading a lot of replies to the toilet seat issue, and many women say they don't like sitting on the throne with the seat up in the middle of the night.

Maybe if you looked before you squatted, this wouldn't be an issue. What do you think?

I have a reoccuring dream that I'm driving and I take a wrong turn, which leads me to a bridge with no guide rails. I try to cross it, but inevitably fall in the water. I almost always experience the sensation of death in this dream, which is just when I wake up. What could this mean, you know, symbolically?

In an article titled: Lawsuit Claims Fired Pregnant Woman Was Told To 'Suck Belly In' :

A plastic surgery office discriminated against a pregnant secretary who was fired after being told to suck in her belly so she wouldn't scare away patients, government lawyers charged in an anti-discrimination lawsuit filed Wednesday.

An employer cannot fire a pregnant employee based on outdated and speculative fears regarding how patients might react to her pregnancy," EEOC Regional Attorney Jacqueline McNair said in a statement.

Will this pave the way for men be asked to suck their bellies in, for fear that they'll scare clients away? Oh my.

I keep hearing how gender discrimination doesn't exist, but then these pesky cases appear-do you think pregnant women should be fired for having big bellies? What's next, pregnant woman will be fired for swollen ankles?

Do women blame men for problems that are self inflicted? Like body image issues. In my experience, women are much more critical of each other's appearances than men are. What say you?

when a man leaves the toilet seat up?
Why can`t they put it down theirself.
Men have to lift it up when they urinate, and they do not get upset about that! I usually do put it back down as a matter of courtesy, but woman shouldn`t harp about it all the time! If women want equal rights, then they should also have equal responsibility!

OK there are practical reasons to not have sex like don't want to worry about pregnantcy or disease don't want to be used by a player and just don't feel ready to go there yet.

But what are Moral reasons for not having sex? Why is having sex (b4 marry) wrong? It seems to me that I will be the same person before or after I have sex so where is the moral problem?

For example: What is good about virginity? Why is "saving" your virginity for marriage good?

Could someone please explain this to me? Thank you :)

ARGUMENT FROM DREAMING
1. There is no way to tell whether or not I am dreaming.
2. If there is no way to tell whether or not I am dreaming, then all of my experiences could be dream experiences.
3. If all of my experiences could be dream experiences, then I must suspend my beliefs based on those experiences.
Therefore, I must suspend my beliefs based on those experiences.

Why would men and women choose this as a lifestyle? What's appealing? And once they cross that path, can they go back to a monogamous relationship?

Respectful openness is appreciated.

PS: I don't judge the lifestyle, just want to understand it.

I had this dream before starting a new school. In it, I met about 8 or 10 people. I did not know their names in the dream, but I could see them perfectly. I could also see the room we were in. In the dream, one of the kids was playing with one of the gas jets in the room near the heater. I told them to stop, but they said not to worry, that it was broken anyway. The whole place caught on fire and we all died. A couple of weeks later, I started my new school. Shockingly, I met those people in my dream. I had never seen them before then, but there they were. Worse, I found the room, and I had a class in it. It had the same gas jet and heater too. Should I be like really worried? I mean, its kind of weird to dream in perfect detail about things you've never seen before, right?

I often feel stereotyped and embarrassed because of some of the stupid things women do to men. I am just curious if men feel the same:
Do you feel you are unfairly stereotyped because of some of the predatory things that some guys do (rape, child molestation, using women, etc.)? Do you think that most
women distrust you or your intentions because of their experiences with bad guys? Does it bother you when other guys do predatory things because it affects how women view all men?
