Random weird thing. It is a little long, but bear with me.

After church let out this afternoon, I noticed that traffic was bad, so I tried to kill time by wondering around aimlessly in the lobby looking the books and other materials that were laying about. I didn’t see anyone that I knew right away (it was a big church) so I just kept strolling around smiling at random people and looking at books. I noticed that a particular girl kept looking at me, so naturally I looked back at her every time that we crossed paths. Eventually one of the people in her little group came up to me and said, “Do you have a problem?” It seemed like an odd question, so I said something to the effect of, “Why? Is there a problem?” This person said, “Why are you following my friend around?” I said, more or less, “I was not aware of following your friend anywhere.” This person retorted, “Well, you are making her uncomfortable,” and then got nervous and ran away just as I was trying to ask a question.

Or do you believe there is no correlation between being a racist and being a feminist or anti-feminist?

Your thoughts? Your experiences?

I drive by the big farms and they have large amounts of hay put up...overflowing amounts. However, the word is that hay is scarce so they are playing on the opportunity to up their prices
on the small farmer that depends on their hay. I realize that each farmer has a right to set their price but isn't there some kind of code of conduct if nothing else that rules the farm industry...if not..they may as well all be used car salesmen ....looking for the next Buck..regardless of their fellow farmers.

Oh and Please don't ask me for a reading unless you are willing to pay me to do it. People just keep asking and asking and asking and they think and feel that I owe them something because just because I am what I am. It is really frustrating.

Some people believe certain things happen because of fate. Others think it is because of one's decision. Is it one or the other, or is it a combination of both?

do we have complete control over everything that happens...(within reason) or is it decided for us?

Lets face it. Women have more options when it comes to wearing clothes (men's and women's), makeup, etc. More women than before are even going into male-oriented jobs/sports & yet don't get criticized as much for that as men do for getting into traditional female activities/jobs (e.g. ballet, secretary). It's REALLY bad over in Australia & New Zealand! Girls in schools get away with any style, but boys are forced to have their hair short and not wear any earrings. That is SO unfair! I'm game for basic feminism: EQUAL RIGHTS for BOTH SEXES! Even though I would be too embarrassed to wear a feminine dress (that would be so "gay"), I still like to push the envelope for me to wear a toe ring, male skirts (e.g. kilts), & do things that metrosexuals do so that women aren't superior in everything. Women are already superior in some things, so I think it's only fair that men can be superior in some ways too. When it comes to satisfying male fantasies, only then should women B totally superior.

Does it seem to you that a few people in the GWS section got lost (and remained here) on their way to bible study? I mean - some just keep using the same old God argument... Or am I imagining things?

-Is it striving for male superiority and women's subjugation?
-Is it woman-hating?
-Is it working towards re-establishing a patriarchal society?
-Is it striving for a religious, conservative nation?
-Is it working towards a time when men ruled the home?
-If they disagree with only some of the things that feminism is about, but really believe in equality, why aren't they working with feminists on the issues they agree on? Why focus only on what they disagree with?

Seeing so much hatred expressed towards women in the forum today has made me wonder what the anti-feminist agenda for some of these people is really about?

Where I woke up the third time being chased by a feline monster on a bicycle while I run for my life on my two feet. I have dreams that I could fly while being chased by the feline monster out in the forest filled with tall trees. When I woke up my heart was pounding very fast and I was sweating like hell.
I don't know why, but maybe because I saw a horror movie that night. What is it trying to say in my dreams?

I'm 16 years old, I am a sophomore in High School
I have no idea what to become after high school, I don't want to be stuck in a boring job I hate. I don't want to live the way I am in a **** hole.

I've always wanted to be an Actor, but you need to be extremely hot to be in the business, all I every worry about everyday is counting calories and on occasions, I would purge because I feel to ugly.

I've always wanted to be in the entertainment business, and what other options do I have? Mc Donalds?
I don't even have enough money for college, I don't even know what I want to be, I can't do anything.


If I try to commit suicide and fail at it again, then this time I will be in the hospital for life, since this would be my 4th time trying to do so.


I have friends, but not the ones I want.
I feel so alone...lonely.

I need to have lots of guys want me and I need to be in a position to reject them. But I'm a nice person, not bad and wouldn't do anything intentionally terrible.
I guess everyone likes to feel pretty and feel wanted but what's my issue, narcissism or low self-esteem? How to tell the difference?

I have recently been troubled by horrible dreams, not scary nightmares, just horrible things and have been relieved to wake up and find it was not real. Does everyone do this? Do our brains tell us things when we are asleep?
