Sociology - January 2007

Historical, the white people acted biasedly to the black people. Now in some Asian countries, some Asian people would look down some darker skin races, say black, Indian, or people come from Middle East and south-east Asia, but it’s not on the western white. And if the yellow skins go to western country, more or less, they would be looked down.

Moreover, generally speaking, why the lighten skin color, the higher society status you get, and more economic power you have? Why most of the developed countries are white people countries, and the most of the fall behind places are be holding by the dark skin? (eg. Africa, South-American, India…..etc.)

Could someone explain to me in detail please?

What are the factors that cause people to be cruel...average people who are seemingly very nice people...Why would anyone want to deliberately hurt someone else? Either their feelings or physically?

Is good handwriting hereditary, and we get it from our parents?
Is it something we get from the writing we see as children, then just pick up like accents?
Is it a physical thing in our hand that makes us write a certain way?
Is it related to coordination?
In kindergarten, everyone is taught the same basic shapes, so why is it that everyone has their own unique style of penmanship?

I want real answers. It seems post industrial revolution in the West has shown the gross abuse of power religious, financial and political leaders have managed to keep under wraps. Are American's [i.e. Westerner's] so jaded and fed up with these institutions that they worship and emulate celebrities? Thus encouraging the rich and famous' irresponsible and counter productive beahvior?

I'm not a parent. At 43, I have decided I don't want children, but have a great many in my life through family and close friends. I realize that I can't understand many things, but I also know that I have objectivity in my favour when it comes to the behaviours of children today.

I'm interested in the thoughts of those folks on here as to why we have seen such disrespect for adults and a general feeling of entitlement in the last couple of generations of young people.

Why do I attract manwh....? (dont like that word)
It just always happens that way, I am not even close to easy and i don't fall in love easy and i do not fall for "the usual crap". I don'tdress trashy or anything and I'm confident. I also do not tolerate cheating so I don't know why this is. These guys are very sweet, because they know how to be, but always seem to have a past. Very, very, charming. I wanted a "good boy" or whetever you want to call them, but they never come to me! Do you think some people just attract certain people because that is what fits them?
i have no sort of reputation, never had sex and they say you are what you attract, but i don't see the connection here?
