It seems that (perhaps because of Feminism), white women (even very young ones) don't like being called or referred to as "girl" in any context. In contrast, it seems that black women don't mind in some limited contexts (e.g., a guy flirting by saying "Hey Girl, how are you doing?"). Has anyone else noticed this? If so, have you made relevant observations about Asian women or Latinas?

Today I was standing in line at Kohls, and a man wearing a female watch, blue shorts, pink shirt was returning two large dresses that looked like would fit him. First thing came to my mind was maybe he is returning these for his wife then I realized when he said thanks to the cashier he had a high pitched voice. It made me really sad and no one knows this but God. I said a little prayer for him when I got in my car and it really sadened me. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks. This is not the first time I've encountered this. Especially at a Marshalls or Kohls. A lot of transvestites and men that wear dresses that try them on in dressing room. As a female it makes me sick to my stomach. What about you?

Or do just a few people feel that way. I've been getting warned not to tell anyone I'm American when I'm there. I just don't see the point. If I'm polite, courteous, and friendly, should I have to hide the fact that I'm an American? 1 second ago

This is round three of being disrespected by my co-worker. I'm a bartender, he's a cook. He tells customers things that he shouldn't and starts fights w/them. He gets upset when you bring a food check to him at 1 minute til the kitchen closes and will totally disrespect you in front of customers. I have once gone to the boss and he didn't do anything because the cook does him a favor by growing his w**d for him. I called the cook to ask him what his problem w/ me is and all he can do is be horrifically rude . No need to go into detail. Should I try calling the cook tomorrow when he is sober (HAH) or should I say something to the boss man again?

Inspired by a previous question about Adam and Eve being Black, I started pondering on how DID all the different races of humankind come to be? Did each race of humans transform from a different 'monkey'? We have gorrillas, orangutangs, chimps, etc. Did 'white people' evolve from the baboon?
Cheers!

When the early protestants, were being killed by the catholics and they were burning english bibles at St.Pauls cathedral?

How about in Ireland with what still goes on today? God must think one of them is right and one wrong as there are some very different views on things?

I can somewhat comprehend killing others of a different religion (well not really) who occupy your "holy land". But to kill people who believe in the same god as you because of different interpretations of a book written by apocolyptic nuts who said the world would have ended a long time ago is yet another proof to me that faith is ludicrous.

So since it has to actually be a question, to you christians who side was/is god on?

I was talking to my 17 year old about her younger siblings about the mess on the wall behind the trash can. They always throw their stuff away but get a lot on the wall. She said "ya know, mom, most people keep their trash cans under the sink". So I'm just taking a survey. Thanks

According to the answers about heaven from christians, the place will be stress free, plentiful, and full of the dead person's loved ones.

Stress free? How could you be stress free, whilst still being able to watch your children live their lives? Would you no longer care? If your kids acted against what you believed to be your god's wishes, wouldn't you still be able to worry about them?

Plentiful? With what? If you are only spirit, you would not need to eat or drink.

Loved ones? They wouldn't be the people you knew whilst alive. These spirits wouldn't possess the characters of these people...their humour etc. What would you talk about? Those loved one's, ballsing things up on Earth? The weather?

What about those you had expected to be there waiting for you and didn't make it? Would you just shrug your shoulders and say 'Oh well'?

So what will you be? A blob of inarticulate 'love', adoring a god who is still allowing pain and suffering?

when you do not agree with their belief," I will pray for you".
It is IRRITATING BEYOND BELIEF, number one if you really want to pray, why do you feel the need to say it? Do you think to be better than others? I do not need your prayers to make me change my mind, keep it to yourselves.

Well I was wondering, all of the time now when i say anything that happens to be true and also about blacks or any ethnic group people say I am racist.

Like i said that: In prisons, the majority of inmates are black. People then call me racist. It is the truth. Where I live 87 percent of the prison population is black, and they make up only 10 percent of the normal population. It costs 67000 to pay for one prisoners upkeep per year. They are wasting a lot of our countries money, I dont understand why I should be victimised for telling the truth. Its not like I am the criminal here, it is the black people that are in jail. They commited the crimes, if they have such a big problem with me saying the truth then they shouldnt commit crimes, because then I cannot say it. So yeah, what are your thoughts on this, am i allowed to say things like this, why or why not? Also shoud black people have to take a course that is designed to break there cycling of offending. It is not discriminatory
