We would probably mostly agree that the outcome of the Suffragette movement was a positive one. It acted as a catalyst and springboard for the Feminist movement, leading to the (partial, still incomplete) emancipation of women, and is leading to a society where women have equality of opportunity with men. (Although I realise that this is not the case globally, but progress is being made).

However, would we consider the suffragette movement to be a terrorist organisation?

If Yes, does this mean that we accept that the means can justify the ends?

If No, does this mean that we only define terrorists as people whose goals we disagree with, and call those whose goals we agree with as 'freedom fighters' or something similar?

Does the way we answer this question affect the way we define terrorism?

Serious Thoughts please.

hello. i'm a teenager, but i'm a bit childish. i'm a shy girl. and am a bit sensitive. i don't like judging people (for me everybody's beautiful) so i observe them most of the times, and try to understand why they're like that. too much observation caused me to forget to talk. i can communicate better written than oral. i don't get the point of speaking if you're already too late. do you think i can come over with my shyness? do you think i'm rotten or something?

A couple of months ago I had begun to like/ admire someone at work; envy, if you will. But envy in a positive manner. He always -- smiled. He was friendly, he never complained, or anything of that sort.

Then one day, I was at work, wondering where he was, somewhat waiting. A moment later, I heard the door open, a girl was crying; he had committed suicide.

So what is the value of a smile?

Is it just a false pretense?

What purpose does it serve?

Over the past 50 years there have been an untold number of advancements in virtualy every aspect of our lives, but is this change a blessing or a curse? Due to all of the new found luxuries we are able to live very comfortable lives with very little effort on our parts, but in the process we have become lazy and dependant on material objects.

hi all,
i had this weird dream last night and i still remember it vividly today, can someone anyone recomend a site that can tell me what it means or can any of you translate my dream?

i had a dream that i was pregnant with a huge belly and that i went to a family members house to give birth. the house was old and on the wall i saw 2 cocaroaches and a scorpion!
i remember everyone saying that what i have seen shouldnt worry me.
Then at birth i remember the baby came out and i didnt feel pain and i havent seen any blood.
the baby was a big one with a rather mature face and black thick hair. but it was a girl (noone told me that but i felt it!)

P.s: dear readers if anyone can translate this dream please have in mind that my mom died 3 weeks ago this sunday so this may have something to do with the way i am feeling insides or subcontiously.

Thanks!

Before radio the average american labourer had a vocabulary of under 650 words and was only understood in their neighbourhood. Now the average 6 year old has more words and can talk to other 6 year olds all over the world.

Media breakthroughs and communication for this reason makes change, and economic change occur faster and faster, what changes could we from total globalisation to total protection between now and 2037, and what would life be like?

I have developed a theory that either look of woman's feet and the way she cares about them reflect her personality.

I noticed a flat square nail on the big toe refelcts warm person, caring. On the other hand narrow nail is usually connected to anxious person.

Other thing is the length of the toes compared to the big one as well as the angle between the foot itself and a line connecting all the small toes. I am in research phase in this.

Other thing, this is probably a reflection of mood, is the color of nail polish. As darker as worse mood.

Have you noticed something similar? Can you help me in reasearch? By describing your feet and personality?

This thought crossed my mind several months ago. Do you always return missing items you know are lost? Or do you keep them if you know no one will find out you have it? Do you keep merchandise sent to someone else but it ends up at your door? I tend to subscribe that people are as honest as they have to be. Your thoughts on this.

I see some people in GWS make homophobic remarks about feminists who are female or male. Are they just anti-feminists or are they also the masculinists and men's movement followers?

Are gay men welcome in the masculinist and men's movements?

I've noticed that some anti-feminists target feminists in GWS (Gender and Women's Studies), and ask questions using the feminist's profile names. Often the questions are derogatory, negatively discussing the feminist's attractiveness and/or sexuality. But I rarely see anti-feminists being targeted by feminists-once in a while, but the attacks on feminists is a constant event, even though it is against Yahoo Community Guidelines. Usually the feminists being targeted, harassed and stalked are female as well.

Why do you think there are so many personal attacks of feminists in GWS, by anti-feminists:
-Are they "losing" a battle?
-Are they taking Q&A's personally?
-Do they feel justified in attacking anyone who dares to be a feminist?
-Are they stalkers in "real-life"?

Not the obvious lucky, like winning the lottery. More like when they refer to something in your personal life, be it a solid marriage, healthy kids, a good job, a nice house, or whatever. I know its only a figure of speech, and most people seem genuine in expressing that I should know to be grateful. Sometimes, though, from certain people, or they way a person puts it, makes me feel like they somehow think I am undeserving of what they feel is my good fortune. I'm not the type of person to really let anyone's opinions get to me, but this statement always makes me hesitate a minute before I respond.

Does anyone else feel this way when someone says to you "You're lucky to ________."? If so, how do you respond?
