Is it sexist of the drug companies, or is it the fact that there is just no demand for the product?

I don't mean those incurred by the usual relationships of family, business, etc...I mean do we/should we have any responsibility for one another simply as fellow human beings?

Perhaps they feel their masculinity is being challenged by independent and outspoken girls - at least in this part of the world.

I know this doesn't really belong in Gender & Women's studies, but the folks here seem to be much smarter than in the Health section, which is the suggested category.

I had a dream I was on missions with batman, and he could fly. First we were at a hotel sleeping (he didn’t have is mask on while sleeping) we were in separate beds (nothing like that) and this short weird man came out of no where and tried to shoot batman, I woke up and yelled at B.M to wake up, he shot the man and we flew out the window. I was on his back flying with him in the traffic of N.Y.C. Cabs were beeping because we were flying low near the cars. At first we were high in the air then we went low, I told to fly higher after we almost got hit. He flew higher then I woke up. It was nighttime, and it just finished raining in my dream. It felt so real, because I remember the face of the cab driver. It was crazy fun. What do you think?

Asking the "why" behind you being a feminist. I lean on that side because my dad ditched his wife of 6 years, 5 year old daughter and 1 year old daughter (me) and never came back. Was wondering if bad experiences from men is why other women are feminist.

A friend of mine passed away with cancer a while ago and me and friends at school were talking obviously we were upset because it was the day we found out. But I had a deja-vu . . . like a memory of that exact conversation happening before.

Another example is a conversation me and my friend had about my grandmother passing away ??

It keeps happening . . . do you think it means something?

I don't really understand domestic abuse that well but understand that you lose complete confidence in yourself and are scared to leave. what i am wondering is does anyone out there who has had an abusive partner blame themselves for choosing these partners? What about when you have children do you feel guilty that you brought children into a violent environment or are almost in denial when the situation is going on where you believe things will get better?

Seems like this would create a quandry for many feminists. On one end, they want women to be free to do what they want to with their re-productive rights, yet on the other end, feminists are socialists and like the government to dictate policy to the masses. How are feminists dealing with this issue?

What Marshall Sylver Turning Point Seminar has done for me....
I have tickets if you want to message me...

If you were ever curious about looking into seminars that can motivate and change your life, this one is the one to do!
I say this as a family man who struggled for years with depression, questions about faith, family, life and even finances. I say this as a guy who spent years in therapy (who hasn't?) or in codependent relationships and all the other self deprecating processes out there.

Am I completely whole? No, life my friends is a process. It's all one big process... but I will tell you this....This guy accelerated my growth exponentially in so many aspects of my life. I am no longer pinching myself that it is real!

The Turning Point is exactly that!

Our current goals and dreams have been realized and we are moving forward and enjoying life more than ever!:
-A career that I was getting out of totally turned itself around for me, rather, I got new perspectives on it and am not changing careers anytime soon. ;) I am however going ahead with the new plans and continuing our own home business! ;)
-My own therapist has basically given me the all clear after 3 years.... I am "on call" if I feel like I need a session. (and trust me its nice not to be paying out every week and feeling like you are not getting anywhere)
-I have more time it seems even though I am busier than ever?! Both my wife and I are now involved in community where we really were home bodies and on the verge of divorce. Our time together as a family has blossomed. Our private life has intensified.
- My wife is an artist who after 20 years had only a couple of shows, now she has so many shows going that she is behind in production and she is now selling!!!!
-I am able to spend way more time with my son than I ever dreamed, I get to be a Father!
-My wife's own personal and business contacts have exploded. Additionally, her own personal growth because of this has been tremendous! Talk about a self esteem makeover!
-We always wanted to "do unto others"; and its now happening, I am sharing and mentoring culinary students; my wife is helping other artists with their businesses, and is a cub scout leader assistant; together we are helping an elderly neighbor keep her home from going into foreclosure.
-Business associates, clients, and friends are giving us gifts just for being...us!

THIS IS NOT A MAGIC BULLET!!!!!! But it is an awesome, FUN tool to help you on your way, keep you on track, inspire you to do MORE.... Of what ever it is you WANT to do, or perhaps even some things you never thought of doing ;)

And How Cool Is THAT!

I have tickets, lets get together and spread the wealth!

Is it somehow likely or even possible that one day in the distant future, we will be co-existing or dare I say, 'governed' by intellectualy superior, reasoning, thinking emotive machines ? cybernetic organisms ?

Basicly asking whether or not A.I can reach a stage where it becomes 'alert' and begins to play havoc with everything mankind has innovated since the copper wire conductor.

Go ahead and accuse me of watching too many sci fi movies, thats not what we're really here to discuss. my question centers around the very eerie thought of machines , getting SO smart that they one day 'wake up' and begin to challenge us on earth, god forbid even enslave or terminate us. :-|

I would love to hear from scholars in this field, who can give me some thought from ground up on the potential of such an event happening. Any thoughts from anybody interested in A.I, robots, cyborgs, angry toasters and 'static kitchen appliances' feel free to answer :-|
