Only in the western cultures is there this division between youth and adult, called the teenage years. In many other cultures these teenagers would be supporting themselves already, if not a family. Do you think it is valuble to give people this time as teenagers? What is your opinion on how it affects our society?

In the corporate world, you tend to notice that alot of those who climb up and get noticed or are respected are those who really know how to play the social game.

I find it very unfair, however, that those who refuse to play, but desire genuinity and aloneness are not placed as high.
"Wallflower" is a semi-derogatory term, quoted of course, by social climbing extroverts, to describe those who prefer quietness.

It is really hard to juggle the social game and be true to everyone, especially since needs differ. Stepping on toes require placation, and usually ditzy name droppers and socialites eventually just live for the superficial game they play.

The popular social media does not laud the introvert, who would rather go where his heart desires.
How fair is it, that one camp is celebrated for being who they are, while another is derided for it?

There should really be a term for social discrimination.
Introverts shouldn't feel like they are less than anyone.

Where do you go for intelligent-conversation? As in, who do you talk-to about things with depth and meaning? Life, soceity ect. Question that will never have answers, but you like to ask anyway? Really over-thinking, some might say "annoying" questions. Have U found a place like that? Are you lookin'? I've tried Yahoo but . . . its pretty hard! I mean I get great answers and all. . . but still. I'm usually left to ponder my thoughts on my own. It can drive me crazy sometimes. Comes with being an introvert I guess. THOUGHTS?

I am certain the government has the technology to do this, and most likely is or has experimented with it. And lets face it, its coming, especially concidering all the the genetic engineering that is already being offered at ungodly rates to couples who want to have the perfect baby. So the question is, what do you think of human cloning? Do you think it will be eventually legal, years in the future? Is it morally right or wrong?

If your someone who likes to THINK. Someone who likes to analyze-soceity. The way people are, how we function and all that. Someone who thinks with depth and introspective, I'd guess you'd say. Maybe even a "over-thinker." Dose the positives in our scoeity, out weigh the negatives? After your done looking at EVERYTHING you see. . . What's your conclusion at the end of it all?
WHAT'S YOUR FINAL DRAFT OR GARDE?

Mine always feel's like its negative. . .
