If a child until the age of 11years old (male) needs to grope his mothers breasts to fall asleep? Isn't this the parents fault for allowing this to happen? By not saying no is that child molestation? Is this a sign of mental unbalance in the child? Could it be a cultural thing? (the person is asian)

CHRISTMAS IN HEAVEN
I see the countless Christmas trees, around the world below, With tiny lights like heavens stars, reflecting on the snow,
The sight is so spectacular, please wipe away your tears, For I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.
I know how much you miss me, I see the pain inside your heart, But, I am not far away, we are really not apart.
So, be happy for me dear one, You know I hold you near, And be glad I am spending Christmas with Christ this year.
I send you a special gift from my heavenly home above, I send you a memory of my undying love.
So please love and help each other as I taught you to do, For I cannot count the blessings, of love for you.
So please have a Merry Christmas and wipe away your tears, Rest assured I am spending Christmas with Jesus Christ this year.

For the most part, feminists and MRA's actually get along on this forum, a bit of banter here, bit of raspberry blowing there and even *gasp* some mutual flirting now 'n then...

Along comes a few nobodies out of the woodwork at it's hostilities.

Why do these trolls enjoy creating hostilities? These trolls claim 'equality' yet do nothing even close to attaining it, instead they focus on causing friction and ill-feeling.

Nature says a 12 year old girl can have sex and give birth, it says that a boy can be a dad at about the same age. Fighting is natural, we need to get rid of aggression, if we keep it 'pent up' then it builds up in 'stress'.
If something happens, isn't that 'natural'?
Why do we create laws that go against our instinct?
Won't defying our instincts and biology make us unhappy?

I'm not talking about murder or violence as that is not inherent in most peoples behaviour. I'm talking about simple impulses that are forbidden by, 'laws'.

In terms of normal, and common instincts, should we just obey our biology and nature and forget about the repression that is 'law'? Like the age of consent or agression?

I need an EXPERT on this please. I used to hang with an autistic person and he got a little attached to me (i.e. love) andwhen I explained, politely, that we are not meant to be, he was ok with it until a few days later, when he went on a rampage and hated it. Recently, he has decided to "forgive" me and hangs with my sister the librarian because he has nothing to do. After we had a mall trip with him, he expressed his love feelings again and has been constantly emailing me daily and wouldn't understand the need for space, no matter how many times I express this wish. I know that he has no sense of boundaries and things, but when I gently point out that I need time alone and that I do not like him as a boyfriend, he doesn't understand. He says he wants to share space with the people he love. I don't want to be rude to him or cause any period of time of which he hates me. Others have told me that he is not acting what an autistic person should act like and he is going out of bounds.

Why are people so happy?
If they know it's going to be filled with sadness more than happiness, if it just a normal day then why, it just indicates to a new session of time of Sadness predominating happiness.
What is your opinion?

Well, I don't remember what happened before it, but all I remember is I was standing behind the chair my crush was sitting in, looking at something on the computer screen, when he grabs me and sits me ontop of him. And then he really awkwardly tries to make out with me but I just leave little soft kisses around his face, and then finally kiss him on the lips, and then we end up holding eachother.. and then I don't remember what happens after that.

So, does this dream mean anything other then the fact that I have adoration for my crush, and I think of him a little too much?

Why do you feel the need to show up in the GWS section and troll the heck out of it? If you hate feminists, then why do you have to behave like chauvinists in order to prove a point? I don't get it, some of the questions here are unbelievably stupid, and I wonder what the pay off is?

The other night i had a dream that i was swimming, then being chased by a car, but laughing the entire time, having fun. Then last night i had a dream that i was swimming in this HUGE pool with millions of people, but there was tons of room to swim. I was swimming back and forth across the pool, tagging people on one side and makeing them chase me, having a really fun time, laughing constantly, No one could ever catch me. Then i got out of the pool and started walking towards the locker room but saw my two old gym teachers from highschool and they were talking to some really hot life-guard girl and they called me over. They said something like "Hey matt, haha good thing you got out of the pool, she had this card to catch you instantly!" (or something dumb) and showed me a peice of paper that looked like a little thing from a fortune cookiee. We all started laughing, and i went to go grab a towel, and got changed and left. Then i got in the car with my grandpa, were now i was wearing my

Extremely shy with people, never approaches others. Hard to make friends, rude with friends, but doesn't think it's rude. As a younger kid, HATED hugs so much, but after a while, became more and more accustomed to hugging people, and now hugs too much. Friends and others describe as weird, awkward, but a "genius." Does not like wearing certain clothes, or coats over sweaters or over long-sleeved shirts beause it doesn't "feel" right. Talks either extremely softly, or too loudly. Really hates other people touching her. Never goes to parties, or hangs out with others, not even best friends. Hard to see if people are flirting with her. Does not know sarcasm of people outside of family and friends.. Is this Asperger's or something else?

I've had a cold for the past few days and wasted a lot of time. Now I feel like I've wasted the past few days. Anyone else ever get this feeling? They say to live every day like it's your last, but that's not so easy.
