What happened exactly?

I have been in a relationship for three years with a mexican/puerto rican man. He was born and raised in the United States as were his parents. I am white from an average middle class family. Some people in my family dont aprove of our relationship. We plan on having children in the near future. Although no one can change the way I feel about him, I want to know what peoples true thoughts are on this. Also, I want to know if you think that my children will face any racial discrimination. Thank you!

My daughters have been invited to two Bat Mitzvah parties this month. I'm not Jewish, so I don't know the customs involved in this celebration. I assume they should bring gifts, but what is appropriate?

Thanks for your advice!!

It makes me so angry when I see a woman with 5 or six kids, living on the system, foodstamps, wellfare, and driving a brand new car, or SUV, dripping in gold, wearing better clothing and very expensive tennis shoes than mst, all the while living on tax payers dollars.
AND these same women keep having more, and more babies! if you know you cannot support your first child, why keep having more? AND most thhe time they don't even know who the father is!
just watch Maury Povich- it is PATHETIC!

I've been looking for a leadership figure to teach me about spirituality. I found this website about this guy Ted Haggard. He seems like a great guy...according to something that I read, he even bought amphetamines and threw them away - apparently to make sure that they didn't end up in the hands of others. Wow, what a selfless person!

I went out last night in the city to a straight bar with my straight friends. I used to be cool about hanging out anywhere. Now that I'm older these overly hetero places are not doing it for me.

Also could you give me the names of some Christmas songs that might not be as "popular" as the tradtional songs. I'm doing a contest with my firends and I give clues and then they have to guess which Christmas song it is. Thank-you.

Last night at work, I walked in the lunch room to begin eating. Out of no where a guy that works frozen foods ran up to our Manager (a lady), turned around on her and farted so loud! Everyone laughed but I got up, told him he was ignorant and disgusting. I said if you had done that to me, I would have flattened ya. Some guys are sick!

Okay, I go to an all girl school and we all live in a dorm together with roommates and I have the major hots for a girl down the hall. She's so pretty and nice and talented, but she has already made some rather homophobic statements. I'm afraid to approach her and also afraid that if I have to go through four years of seeing her and living with her, I'll die of sexual tension.
HELP!
