In a nutshell Whites are mutated inbred albinos. Scientifically speaking biologists say that white skin is a result of adaptation to climate, but let’s pay close attention to that for a minute. When we think of an adaptation to something, we think of acquiring physical traits and characteristics that would make us successful in surviving the environment. Let us understand what White skin means biologically and genetically. White skin does not meet the criteria for being a result of climatic adaptations.

Scientists write that White skin is an adaptation to northern cold climates. The lack of melanin has proven to be non-beneficial but actually detrimental to cold climates, technically. Melanin has thermal regulating properties in that it absorbs all forms of heat and energy and can actually allow a person to warm up quicker after coming out of the cold and keeps them warmer longer while in a cold environment.

Is it specific things? Or what give me an example. I don't find them particulally difficult to understand at least not in comparisson with men who I actually find a little difficult to understand. I get on women fine but guys I don't understand a lot of what they like like sport and cars yada yada. Women are more imaginative and creative and thats more like me (Not gay btw) Men for some reason are funnier although Joe Brand is very good. I have no reference to something a women has said or done that men don't understand.

I am doing a Sociology project and I just need some ideas on how prostitution relates to the conflict theory. It is not a research paper, more of a formal opionated paper.
I have found all kinds of ideas for the functionalist and feminist perspective on the web, I am just having a hard time finding the conflict theory.

Suppose a girl is attacking a guy and he can't get away, and when he tried to restrain her, she stepped on his toes, bit him, kneed him in the balls, etc. If he punches her in the face to stun her so he can get away, should he go to jail for hitting a girl? If so, for how long? Should other men beat him up because he hit a girl? Should the girl go to jail for attacking the guy? If so, for how long?

t is widely accepted and acknowledged that ethnicity is a significant treating factor within the human service milieu. Much research and attention has been paid to ethnicity and attitudes toward cultural pluralism. The current demographics of my area would indicate that this region still has very little ethnic diversity compared to larger urban areas. I would argue that there is a broader and more obvious diversity between socio-economic groups, particularly in my area. Ethnic groups are a very small or underrepresented in the services sector.

Why should we pay so much more attention to cultural pluralism in our delivery of services? Why should this get more attention than serving the poor?

Hi, I'm Andy. I'm a Yahoo Answers addict. (Hi, Andy.) Yeah, well, I realize that I spend too much time on Yahoo Answers, and I would like to know how to recover from the desire to ask personally relevant questions for personally relevant responses, and to answer other people's questions with my own personal touch. Why do I love Yahoo Answers so much and what can I do to establish more balance in my life with respect to Yahoo Answers?

Britain used to be such a lovely country to live in once upon a time.

It's not anymore that's why I have left to live in Thailand, where it's a lot better in many ways. Not ALL ways. But MANY.......

This is something I've been wondering about for weeks. I understand why we as humans want to survive, that is to enjoy the pleasures of life, but why do we continue the species, why do we eat, why does our nature inscribe in us survive at any cost?

Really, please, think hard about this one. I'd like to know what your opinion is.

The term African American is a geographical description not a racial one. Erine Els is from South Africa, he is white as the day is long and if he immigrated to the United States he would be considered African American. Additionally, Egyptians (who look Middle Eastern) are from Northern Africa, why do we not call American Egyptians African American? I am tired of all the political correctness.
