Sociology - January 2007

For example, the other night at a restraunt/bar a girl in the next booth stopped me and asked if I'd like to join them... her friends immediatly shut her down but I didn't take the chance to ask for her number.. tonight, same place new waitress. Super sweet attractive girl, nervous as hell and just as shy as I am. We exchanged glimpes of each other all night, but again I couldn't bring myself to ask her out. How can I take these situations to the next level?

I just lost a very, very dear friend of mine to this stupid trend. She was only thirteen, and now she is gone. There is a trend nowadays for kids to choke themselves to the point of near unconsciousness and then release and get some sort of rush. I don't know if this is a sexual rush or what, but why would anyone do this? Her mother found her in her room with a ribbon around her neck tied to a closet door. She did it wrong and choked herself to death. If you have anyone I can talk to about this or a site I can get some info about this, I'd really appreciate it. She was my tigger, bouncing around, full of life and happiness and now she is gone. She was only 13 and now she's gone. I want to learn more about this so no parent ever has to go thourgh losing their own child like this again.

not normal black people who have converted to judaism like whoopi or Sami. I mean Ethiopian, or African Jews. It is just that I've heard that some Ashkenazi(white Jews) , dislike Sephardic(Arab Jews). what would either of these groups think of ***** Jews? and what category would you put them in Sephardic or another branch. basically the question is Would a Jew identify more strongly with anther person who is an authentic jew, but of another race, or would they see them as just as different as any other person of another race, despite beng of the same ethnic group.

I've noticed most guys have trouble writing long, complex yet still coherent sentences. Women seem to be a lot better at that (I used work as a university instructor). Then, overall, the level of nuance (connotations and second meanings) given by women in a conversation is a lot richer than that among men.

Are women overall superior to men in the handling of language?

PS: I mean overall; I acknowledge some men are better at it than most women.

2 brothers where playing in the yard and 1 of them found a butterfly trap in the spider’s web. The spider begins to approach the butterfly, but then the boy reaches to save it from the spider’s web. As the boy reached to help the butterfly his brother crashes the spider. The 1 who tried to save the butterfly got angry and asked his brother why he killed the spider. The brother replies, because you wanted to save the butterfly from the spider. His brother replies no I wanted to save them both! The one who killed the spider then said Spiders need to kill butterflies or they will die of starvation so if you keep saving the butterfly the spider would die away. So to spare the butterfly and to ease the spiders suffering you should just kill the spider. The one you saved the butterfly said no you don’t have the right to take the life of the spider. He wanted to save them both.

My question is: would you save the butterfly or kill the spider?
Basically asking who do you feel is right.

Ever since I was molested by a female family member, I've been very eager and efficient at pleasing the opposite sex. Since my so-called girlfriends usually seem to notice this, they rarely trust me and I have given up on serious relationships.

Before I went into business, all my relationships were intense and short, and many women admitted after getting involved that it was only physical. Some told me up front, and a few were married. I've been beaten up a few times and threatened even.

I am normal for the most part. I have a bachelor's degree, a regular job, but I also have a simple service I provide for females with extra benefits for those interested.

I was raised with a belief in God, with many morals, but my experiences in life has lead me to a different attitude, so that's not a concern. My looks will fade, my body will age, and I don't want to grow old alone some day, but in the meantime, if I'm going to be used, is there anything wrong with being paid for it?

One of my neighbors lost his home to foreclosure and the police came with a lock smith the bank hired to change the locks and found his body in his former living room with "another victim of capitalism" written on the wall. Do people try to measure their lives too much too social conformity/social standing. I have never meet a person who is down to earth and humble kill themselves. Most people I know who killed themselves over my lifetime (23) are social seeking yuppies who fail and end their lives over it....SAD!!! Why do people kill themselves? Your opinions I gave you mine.
