It seems that my entire life revolves around my looks..like that's all I have control over and seem to care about..I'll never leave the house without my makeup (which usually takes hours to do) and I'm constantly perfecting this and that and then no matter what happens, or how many people tell me I'm beautiful I still feel ugly like the way I feel on the inside!! but I still obsess and try to change every little thing from hair color, eye color, etc, etc and I still hate the way I look..is this a problem or do I just have self-esteem issues??

What are the implications of "framing" on our judgments and on our attempts to influence others? Are there moral considerations? Why or Why not?

people like to delude themselves into calling the baby(including head, hands, toes, eyes, brain heart) "tissue" but when the baby is miscarried, he/she is of course referred to as a baby....?

Are you a good woman or a girl? What separates the woman from the girls? Is a woman some one who has a 35 000 plus car? Or a career that envied by most because she takes home more than most would make in a year? Or is woman some who is a university college educated person who smarts all stem from her knowledge of books? And girl is she some one who is doesn’t live to see her fullest potential? She doesn’t have that fancy car? Or works at the works mall as a sales associate? Or her knowledge comes from the enivoiment around her not the books she once looked at in school? So what is woman. In my definition of woman. Woman radiates confidence. A woman takes every challenge as a chance to succeed and to be stronger person every time. A woman doesn’t value or classes her self based on her salary or her car she drives. And yes she may have university or college education because she took everything the world told her she couldn’t do and did it. Her ambitious goal oriented and never stops short of what her full goals and dreams are to be. Now a girl and so many of know them. Don’t know what it mans to live for tomorrow, everything is for that moment and in that moment they have no clue what is going on. A girl doesn’t know what it means to be mature responsible take charge and see a challenge as something overcome. Rather they see a challenge an s road block they have no clue to pass. A girl has infinite time to get caught up. Follow others and never know what it means to be a leader. So here I’ve laid out my definition of what it means to be a woman. Now being a woman does not mean in age but this means in maturity in growth in who you are a person. So I ask you again are you Woman or a Girl?

I made a wish this year - not a resolution, but just a wish. I asked god if he could find me a wife.

The problem is, I'm unsure what a wife or a potential wife would want from me. I'm 45, a little overweight, a recovering alcoholic and have had lots of girlfriends in my life. I wanted to marry the last one, but I screwed it all up by drinking and cheating on her. I never want to go back there again.

I've never been married before, and find alot of women are looking for a second or third husband and think that there is something wrong with me.

I did start a multi-million dollar software company, which failed in 2003, but I'm trying again. (I started it in 1987 when i got sober the first time)

What do you think is wrong with this picture. Do you think I'd never find a wife? That's what I want most from life.

What can I do to make myself attractive enough so that some woman that I'm equally attracted to will marry me?

If you woke up tomorrow. You were totally isolated for a thousand miles in all directions from every form of life including plants, animals, insects, and humans. You know nothing of technology, life, your orgins, what you are, where you came from or how you came to exist? What do you suppose your logical series of actions, but more pointedly, what questions would you ask yourself? After the first moments, the first months, and the first decade?

This is kind of a serious question for me. So if there is any sociological titans out there, please feel free to conjecture?

Alright, so I know that Chopra asked almost the same thing as this, but that was based on the idea that we even have souls in the first place. As I do not believe in God and support a belief in the elements, I ask a simpler question. I'm more interested to hear what people think than actually asking, as I am pretty sure I have my own answer from over four life-threatening experiences. I am not refering specifically to a soul or anything of the sort, simply asking for you to answer based on atheist or religious terms. You may very well answer that nothing happens... but no one can tell me I'm small minded now, because I'm open to everything.

what do you think? agree? disagree? criticism?

1) you will never be independent. children are dependent on their guardians to protect them from reality in order to constantly maintain their innocence. as an adult, you will still be dependent on someone to protect you, and you will never become independent.
2) you won't establish your own values. innocence means lack of experience; you're always following other rules, but you haven't had enough realistic experience to establish your own indiviual morals according to what you have learned from experience. you will always follow rules according to secondhand experience (what someone tells you) and not firsthand (according to what you have learned yourself).

3). you will be unaware of evil, and hence incapable of avoiding it. this is fine if you have someone to protect you from it, but as adults you will be often thrust into this. You will be unassuming and too ignorant to live in the real world without being hurt.

I have been really depressed for over a month ago, in the beginning I thought it was just holiday stress and depression, but even afterwards right now, I am so depressed it has gotten worse since then, I feel worthless, hopeless, get nothing accomplished, am not eating and just wanting to sleep, but sometimes I get a mixture of this weird feeling of wanting to do things, wanting to just wear all black, change my hair to black, make all kind of changes, and do things that aren't good. I even go out and spennd all my money knowing my bills are due, and then I go back to the feeling of hopelessness being depressed so bad that it hurts physically. I have lost interest in all kinfs of things and am performing very poorly with my customers at my job because of it. I have had customers complaining to my boss when I wait on them because they say I am just a very unhappy, seeming undedicated to them and my job.

Has anyone spanked their toddler with success?
By success I mean obedience. We are torn on this issue. Yeah, it works at the time...but there is so much a toddler gets in trouble with that Im not sure if its worth it. We are green in this area..just dont want disobedient children. Are there any parents out there that have used spanking to curb their kids' behaviors? Has it worked or not?
