Social Science - 12 December 2007

I had a dream about having a "date" with this guy and we had the most delicious sex (not that I recall details much) but at the end, his attitude changed to one of a user and I wish I could recall his exact words, but I remember replying "No, not now, just don't say that now", meaning to spoil the wonderful sex that I had just experienced. Even though I now knew it meant nothing to him, I wanted to finish the 'fantasy' on a good note and deal with the rejection later.
I remembered the dream, I had a full day, forgot the dream, but now just remembered it as if it was a real memory slamming into me.
SOooo,... any words to help me deal with my created rejection?

Women say the want equality. But why do they only want equality in the privileges of life, not the responsibilities?

Women have no problem creating self-help groups to lobby for legislation to give more rights, where are women's efforts to lobby to be included in the draft.

Note: To all who say that women will not perform well on the front line of a war - for the sake of argument this will be accepted, but the question remains: Why aren't women demanding that they be drafted, but in support roles such as supply and transport? After all, if women can demand that special legislation be passed to ensure that they can be employed as commercial airline pilots, they cannot then say that the task of military pilot is "too dangerous".

Is that fact that women are not lobbying to be included in the draft, even for non-combat roles, yet another example of how women want privilege without responsibility?

life?

i must admit it makes me cringe, especially when you only associate with people your familiar with that come from similar backgrounds etc.

but then you get people answering you on here saying, ' im like you ' and ' we have a lot in common '.

it makes me so incredablly annoyed, because i like to select friends, im a clannish person, but when people persist in approaching you or emailing you, it borders on harrasment.

theres times i feel provoked into saying something extremely nasty and scornfull because the person wont go away...and cant seem to take the hint they are NOT wanted in my life.

i normally just cold shoulder and ignore them....but they persist in contacting me....or saying '' hey you and me have alot in common and i think you no we do ''

this is when i get exasperated.

i mean what are you supposed to do?

its not like you can batter them to death, batter them unconscience is it?

but technically i dont think their breaking the law so im not sure i could

I realize there are circumstances like x-spouses and immediate family members that one has no choice but to interact with.... but if one knows that a relationship or person is unhealthy or dysfunctional... why do some people do nothing to change the dynamics of the interactions between them?

would giving extra attention in that way help to curb the behaviour of a narcissistic(ish) person?
trying to find some solution to an employee who is constantly trying to show how good he is and always pointing out what he feels are shortcomings of other people or there "mistakes" (usually only mistakes because they weren't done as he would have done them) he seems to be threatened by anyone who shows good confidence in themselves and picks on them especially by suggesting to me that they are "problems" or incompetent when in fact they are our best guys. i cant stand it anymore but i don't have the ability to terminate him myself and want to avoid going to the boss to get him terminated if possible because i think he genuinely has a problem , it would be best if there were some way to curb the behaviour rather then him. any ideas? would extra praise help? hurt? should i give him a blunt reality check and let him know where he actually stands with everyone? suggestions please.

Obviously, we start out life naked, and somewhere along the way, clothes got invented.

I do wonder looking at some tribal societies where nudism or near nudism is the norm, if clothes, make up and the like got invented partly to accentuate and conceal.

That the suggestion of a body may be more attractive than the revealed body.

Certainly in the naturist type magazines I have seen, I did not find nudity to be particularly erotic (yes attractive people are still attractive, but attractive people turn heads when they walk down the street too).

In a society where nudism was the norm, would people dress up to be attractive?

You pick your spouse up from work. When you get there he tells you his boss (who's a male) needs a ride home and can you take his boss home? You agree to give the boss a ride home. While your driving with your spouse's boss in the car, you have a can of pop and your spouse wants a drink of it. Instead of asking you, he snaps his fingers at you and tells you hand over that pop to him, he's thirsty. Would you say something right then? Or would you wait to say something until after you dropped his boss off or would you not say anything at all? And if you did say something, what would you say?

I'm not trying to offend anyone to be more specific i was the boss that witness this as i was riding home with them.

this chart is a common chart used today to describe the markets...you will notice that the later years are squished tighter together. I'm wondering what the market conditions are under Bush compared to Clinton to Reagan...What factors are squishing the last few years? Is it volume traded? Is it the real value in 1970 Dollars? Help me understand this. Feel free to have opinions on the current state of our economy.
