old daughter. She is a stay at home Mom and she does nothing but be a MoM! There are no words to discribe how filthy her house is. Her husband works 12 hour days and he has to come home and do the cleaning and if he eats, he even has to cook. I have never seen anyone as lazy as she. I don't think it is to much to ask that she take care of the house since her husband works. The girls daddy said that her Husband made her this way. I beg his pardon, her laziness started when she was small and no one made her get off her heavy ***. Last March her father moved from one house to another and the entire day...all she did was sit and sit and sit some more. I don't understand anything being so damn lazy that they act like they are even too lazy to walk. she often complains about her weight, well...go figure...vaccuming the floor burns calories, sweeping burns calories, and the last I heard, chewing don't burn calories. How or why in the world would anyone want to be this lazy? Need advice!

In any social situations - you all start off as equal, then u feel like your the odd one out as things go on?
Why do you think that is?
I've had it my whole life - I'm nice, normal(ish) and friendly, so how come this keeps happening??
I'm 26 btw.

My roomate is a nice guy when sober but when he is intoxicated he seems to be very aggresive and mean(i think even more when there are women around) when does this say about his personality and inner emotions?

I am an average size guy (5'11 185) and sorry to burst the bubble of all woman here (and I guarantee there will be a few women on this board who claim to be as lethal as any guy) but no woman could do serious damage to me without a weapon. Yes, there are probably about 5% of women in this world who are physiclaly stronger than me, but I could defend myself against them without having to viciously strike back against them.

On the other hand, there are about 35% of the men in the world who could do serious damage to me if they starting physically attacking me with their fists. In such case, I would have to do evrything in my power (hitting, biting, punching, kicking) to defend myself.

So the bottom line is that a guy hiting a girl is worse than a guy hitting a guy. But woman should never ever initiate physical confrontation with a guy as it puts a guy in a no-win situation. He hits back and is a wimp for hitting a weaker woman. He does nothing and is ridiculed for being a wimp.

I'm curious what feminists think because she has achieved what feminists think women should achieve, but her politics are diametrically opposed to that of feminism. Do you oppose her because of her politics, or do you think she is a champion of women everywhere?
