Do you find it sexy for a man to sit with his legs crossed at the knee? I saw a guy yesterday wearing shorts sit and cross his legs and I couldn't keep my eyes off of him.

I should know this being scottish. But does anyone know the name of the type of kilt that goes round the hips and over one sholder. Kinda like the one Mel Gibson wore in Braveheart?

I searched heaps but can't find what it's called.

ponystyle around the mall? I really need to find some knee pads because my girlfriend said that this will be a weekly tradition and act of obedience. Is there someplace I can move to where girls don't have 100% control over their men.

This ban is happening in the UK. I'm interested how this ban will effect the social habits of smokers and non-smokers and if the ban is generally welcomed as a good thing.

they both have a big history of racism.

But why is racism directed mostly particularly on them?
why not other races?

do people throw racism at what they fear most?
or is it because they are regarded as the most inferior?
is it because racists think they don't stay down in their place?

Why do people feel the need to put down another race because of their skin color? I don't get it.

I've been teaching English in korea for about 3 years now. And what bothers me the most is when I see a 10 year old kid with a cellphone. Lastly, something else that bothers me, why do korean kids like to say hello or ask whats your name outside of your home. This world would be alot better place if they talked to the person next to them. I guess it's natural for people to try to be brave and talk to someone of a different race and ignore their own. This don't make any sense does it.

You see, she says she loves me & still gets intimate with me. She has no other person in her life. She texts me constantly & worries if I dont text her back. We see each other almost 3-4 times a week. But my problem is, she says she in NOT in love with me the way she used to but maintain a more noble love... I understand her point but i cant seem to move on. How should I eact everytimes she says she loves me & I know it isn't the same kind of love that I feel for her. I know I am still in love with her but I respect her decision because she is NOT comfortable with our relationship anymore ( same sex relationship ) isn't accepted here, you know. How should I handle this? I am willing to move on & be just a friend but I still feel territorial and we still share intimacies.I want us to be real friends & family too but as long as I am still in love with her I can't avoid but to get hurt knowing we dont feel exactly the same. She wants us to be "the same" minus the "relationship. HELP

I often noticed the surest way to unite people is have band against a common threat or enemy. Take the cold war. When two super powers were against each other, the world was stable. Now without this, the world is falling apart. Is it possible to unite the world by fooling them and making them want to fight a non-existent enemy?

My idea?

If I created a world religion based on the idea that an alien invasion will come and wipe us out and all the world must unite to fight this threat and do what we can to explore space to find these hostiles and get them before they get us?

Then pull a international hoax that convinces the world these aliens do exist and use this as a means to create converts.

Do you think this would work?

I'm a 15 year old girl and I've fallen in love with another girl, I've told her and asked her out (which was really hard!) she said yes. I can't stop thinking about wanting to be with her. I just asked her out June 2nd after knowing her for a year and I can't stop thinking and wondering what it will be like when I kiss her for the first. She's only a year older than me and she's going away to a collage program I won't be seeing her for a year and would like to kiss her before she leaves. I think and run through all the posability's but can't come up with anything I can't help but feel I'm not worthy enough that she would want to kiss me, so how the hell am I supposed to kiss her when I'm the shy one?????? PLEASE HELP!!!!!!!

Hi there,

Sorry if I sound ignorant and foolish. I have a child with autism. I know it's different for every child, but I was curious about others on the spectrum. Do you have a driver's license and do you drive?

I am trying to make connection with individuals on the spectrum as I haven't met adults who are on the spectrum.

Thank you for your time and kind support. I wish to pose other questions in future which would require your opinions. Please stay tuned. I'd highly appreciate it if you could kindly take a moment to forward my question to as many people as you know of who are on the spectrum.

Thank you so much!!

I did, my parents were always working class democrats. It struck me that alot of my political ideology comes from my childhood and growing up midwest democrat. I thought, wow, all that I know and believe has come from someone else and their ideas about religion, politics, life, anything really has all been conditioned into me directly or indirectly. And I just wondered why we as a people get so opposed to others belief systems when our own were founded upon the ideas of others. It made me feel a bit unoriginal and blokheaded. Why do we hang on so tightly to what we've been conditioned or manipulated to believe in the first place. Why shouldn't it be easy to listen to others and let go ofm our parents stuff and the governements stuff and all that other stuff. Our parents molded who we are, why do we always hang onto that? Why do we continue to fight about poltiics? A truly original move would be to try to understand what, where, why, how, who the other side is saying.

I am going through the idenity issue of being gay. I have always dreamed of being 'normal', but have never been really attracted to the opposite sex. What is out there to help me cope? Part of my family is very religious, and I feel that this whole thing is actually doing more harm by keeping it in. I am 19 years old and think that a decision should be made. What advice can anyone give?

Answer the ones that you feel comfortable with. I am doing a study.
Do you believe in evolution or creation
Are you gay or not gay
Are you for or against abortion
Do you believe there is a God or not one
Does it matter how we act or you can act how you feel

My first question was about homosexuality and someone pointed out to me that that was discriminatory. So, in the intrest of fairness, I ask this question. Do you think that it is better? Worse? Just another way of being a person? Again, please state your veiws in a respectful manner. I'm open to all opinions as long as you're not derogatory.

Ok I have been researching and researching. This is the way that it flows. Our common ancestor is my Great-Grandma. She is my Great-grandma, and Her Grandma. What does that make us? From what I've read it should be 2nd cousins once removed, is that right?
Thanks,

it seems like there are hundreds of problems with our world and our society, yet people on this site choose to focus on black people's issues. i know african- americans don't do the right things sometimes, but they are criminals in every race. why do we get picked on so much?
