We start with sex, why do women gladly do the most awful disgusting things in porn movies whilst it is virtually impossible for a husband to get sex from his wife without having to do something for it like buying them stuff? And, why are there so many women(millions)who use their sexuality to achieve something? And last, why will almost every woman do anything for money?

"Spending time with family was the top answer to that open-ended question, according to an extensive survey - more than 100 questions asked of 1,280 people ages 13-24 - conducted by The Associated Press and MTV on the nature of happiness among America's young people."

"Next was spending time with friends, followed by time with a significant other. And even better for parents: Nearly three-quarters of young people say their relationship with their parents makes them happy."

"almost no one said "money" when asked what makes them happy, ... having highly educated parents is a stronger predictor of happiness than income."

"Being sexually active actually leads to less happiness among 13-17 year olds..."

"Close to half say religion and spirituality are very important."

"Overwhelmingly, young people think marriage would make them happy..."

My sister-in-law learned that two women were buying the house next door and said: "If that`s the case, I`ll move. I`m not living next to a couple of Lebanese!"

I frequently see people attack comedians like Dave Chappelle and Paul Mooney as "racist" (rather than racial) comedians.

Racist humor uses detrimental and oppressive stereotypes which reinforce the political and social power of a dominant class, while racial humor is simply commenting on this inequity.

Do you understand the difference? If so, why do you think so many people can't see the difference?

The Soviets oppressed and persecuted anyone who didn't agree with their shallow atheist worldview. They harassed them, censored them, jailed them and even killed them. Now atheists and secularists in America (and Europe) appear to be doing almost the same. Whether it is activist judges, places of work, schools, atheist organizations like ACLU, the mainstream media, liars like Richard Dawkins and Sam Harris and their mob numbering in the millions.

All this makes one ask: Are we witnessing the rise of Soviet-style persecution in the west and especially in America?

I've never had a real relationship. Never have I been introduced as "hey, this is my girlfriend". That's a bit weird don't you think? I've seen guys but I can't seem to sustain anything to the point of gf status. Four months is absolute tops, then it ends.
I graduated college; I have a great job, I'm pretty smart, I don't think I am bad looking; I mean guys do check me out and people comment.
I swear; I'm not messed up LOL As far as abnormalties, I mean, I cut half of a finger off on my left hand, but that ain't bad and you can't even notice.
My lawyers like to compare my abnormal relationship past due to my fathers death and whatever psychological bs that came with the event, but really... could there really be any relation there?
I never used to care, I always said I have lots of time and that someday it would just happen; but I'm almost 22. I'm starting to think somethings wrong with me.
Whats your take on it? Plz don't tell me to wait it out, that don't work (obviously)

or extroverts vs. introverts. Are people genetically one way or the other? Or is it strictly environment and/or experiences that make us this way or the other?

Do you really care when you give an answer, or do you just reply with the first thing that comes into your head?

They have to pick you apart, once you're finally starting to feel good about yourself.
The first thing they say about you is negative.

Give examples of historical events of lies being deemed as truth for long periods of time as your arguements, if you can.

If so, when would that occur and how would it reflect on researchers of children's media?
Might there be other sensitive periods for other types of media?

How are the generations named; and, what defines them?

Off-hand, I recall some names, but am not sure what characterizes them; and, whether there are more (i.e., Baby Boomers, Baby Busters, Generation X, Generation Y...)
