Society & Culture - 24 September 2006

Okay, I used to think it was the Canadians until I posted questions on Yahoo answers about: Why do people hate Americans? and the Canadians were the ones that had the most hateful things to say. So, I'm starting to think that group isn't so friendly anymore. So, which group of people, culture etc. tends to not hate other groups of people so much? I know this involves a bit of stereotyping but ...oh well... Sometimes stereotyping is funny! So I'm not all against it as long as feelings aren't hurt and people realize they are stereotyping and don't take it too seriously..Well, work with me here. People fascinate me.

Have any of you been abandoned by your family or made to feel like an outcast? Or do your families support you in your every endeavor and treat you and your significant other with respect?

Is it because they are secret homosexuals?
is it because they are still in the closet?
is it because they dont have any friends of their own?
or: is it because they do not understand that god loves all people, after all he made them didnt he?
so therefore he made some with little cocks and some with big cocks and what did he want us to do with them when we dont have friends to have sex with?

For example, a person posts a serious question.

An answerer responds by saying why are you asking them and that they don't know.
Some even give sarcastic remarks.


My thing is if you don't know the answer, why respond as an answerer?

A person's picture is being used without his knowledge on dating websites and I would like to let him know. But I only have the picture and no real name. He is not on any model sites. Looks like an ordinary guy.

Each Sunday, my friend and I go to church together. Now, while I love going to church with her, she is late all the time. For instance, last Sunday, she was out of town, & I went to church alone. I made it there very early, therefore I was on time, & didn't have to disrupt others, searching for a seat. Our church has a very large membership, and fills up very quickly, so getting there early is a must. I like to leave at least 30 minutes early. Well, this Sunday, she is back home, and I am ready to leave now, but when I called to see what time she could be ready, she wants to leave 15 minutes before the service is supposed to start! I love my friend dearly, and I don't want to leave her, but I just cannot stand getting there late, & not being able to find a seat. She is not depending on a ride, as neither of us drives to church. Our church is right down the street, so we walk together. She might get mad, but would it be wrong of me to leave her& meet her at the service later?

on girls under the age of 18 in the us. However in the cultures that practice this barbaric ritual, women, regardless of their age generally have no say in their lives, the men, be it their husbands or fathers, have all the say in what happens to them. Women have no recourse and most often times, no voice in these relationships. Don't you agree that the practice should be banned outright, completely from being performed on any female whatsoever? I think the us government is being very lax in their duty to prevent human rights violations in this case, not to mention many others, but I am only specifically talking about this one at the moment.

Throughout my childhood I was too lazy to honor my mother and father. When I turned 21 I realized I had a problem so I went and got some medicine for anxiety and to keep your mind from going into chaos.

Now I appreciate my mom more and I love her so much I don't want to see her go anytime soon. I regret all the times I disobeyed her(only the times when asked to do chores).

The bible says children if you honor your father/mother you'll have a long life here on earth. Well I didn't really honor them that much until this past year. So will I die sooner than the rest just because I honored them too late?

The only times I have struggle of honoring my mom is going to church with her because I don't like that church(I liked you all's advice on my other question).

So is it too late to honor your father and mother?

Now that I'm an adult what are some other ways to honor my mom/dad even if I don't agree with their suggestions and stuff?

Don't just give an answer and ditch it. Give a reason.

Hi, I hope you are doing well. I regret deeply what has
happened between us. I hope you are reading my journal and that you will answer the questions that I sent you. I am working on getting a handle of my feelings for you. It is hard, but I am trying. I am sad, very sad. I wish things could be different. I am afraid you will not take the time to answer my questions. I don't know what I did to you for you to cut all communications with me. I'll continue to try, as long as I can handle my pain.

Does anyone try to follow them? If so how does it feel when you break one of the 10. Do you like it? Does it feel good? or do you suffer a little guilt?
