I've seen a lot of women with orangey hair lately. Is orangey the latest fad in women's hair?

Seems like there is no such thing; women always know a bunch of people.

C'mon, fess up... who is it?

Some big baby has reported almost every question I've put over the Christmas period. Why? They were all good willed or genuine questions, so what's the problem?

Do I scare you *THAT* much you need to remove legitimate or good-willed questions?

*sniff sniff* Awwww

ps - this isn't chatting, it's a question - ps, this isn't a violation... though I'm sure YA won't care to actually look.

back then. I have read that children of unmarried mothers were labelled bastards. What social implications did that have? Why did people feel that it was ok to label children as illigitmate. Why was it expected that people marry compared to now days when 47% of relationships are not legally married? What about the male in the relationship what were the social implications for him if he did not marry his girl friend 40 yeras ago? Was he labeled? What were the social implications for the woman. Any legal implications if people were not married.
I put this question in another section and I meant to put it in womens studies

I was chosen to be a feminist in a role in a play. But I've never meant a true feminist, the real hardcore ones. I'm supposed to be extremely feminist, mysterious, spiritual and anti-love, anti-men. I need to come up with a costume but I've never meant a feminist so I don't know if there's a certain way they dress? Like similarities. Such as shirts with a message or bulky pants to be conservative.
(and if somebody could also give me suggestions on how they act and walk like and also how they talk [low voice?], that'd be great)
Thanks! and I hope I haven't accidentally offended anybody in my ignorance by suggesting feminists might walk, talk, dress differently.

hear this argument when a rape discussion occurs, that a woman's dress or her demeanor is to blame for the violent act of rape.

All female sexism "blame the victim" mentalities aside....

Doesn't this idea paint a picture of men as incapable of self-control, animalistic, or barbaric?

Do you think the feminist censors who control YA are afraid of scholarly inquiry?

"Pregnancy or periods for that matter does not mean professionalism goes out the window."? I was describing a situation in which I found myself I and used this sentence to describe my sentiment. Do you think it was too harsh? I wasn't trying to offend btw..

I know this girll and all of her friends are guys, and she doesn't get along with females, she's very talkative around guys. She has no father figure to look up to. She's very pretty, but is even talkative with the ulgy men. She has done the deed with a girlfriend's man, without the girlfriend knowing. I am friends witht this girl, but I wouldn't want to date her, my question is, why do SOME woman act like this??????????

I told my coworker that I was going to apply for a team leader position in our department, and after I told him that he started acting weird towards me and then he applied for the same position himself! He never expressed interest in it until I told him I was going for it.

I got the job and now we're basically not even friends anymore. Whenever I give him a job to do or question his work, he gets upset. He just seems to hate the fact I'm in a higher position now. (It's kind of amusing.)

Soooo why can't some guys handle a woman being above them?

available and enthusiastic ,and Treat their men with respect, That their men will cheat anyway?

I ask this because I believe if a woman does the above, a man will have little or no reason to stray.

Trees have been considered symbols of fertility or having a subconscious need to facilitate our libido, or our will to survive(the tree of life--along with crosses; sun rays that were considered to penetrate and fertilize the ground(to grow plants); being 'reborn' in a cave, which is symbolic of the womb... e.g. Jesus, Mohammed, and Budhhists receiving spiritual enlightenment or rebirth in caves.)

Considering trees having prior symbolisms to fertility, and a woman expected to always be pregnant and not working is considered oppression in recent times(oppression = only worth her reproduction and maternal abilities), do you refrain from putting up Christmas trees? Or perhaps, do you consider the past to be just that.... the past?

(Question more for theoretical feminists, as opposed to strict equalists)
