I am still young. But I'm different than the girls on my age. I am attracted to females. I've never seen a lesbian on real. I've watched a lot of movies, read a lot of books and asked a lot of people about it. Please tell me how should I recognize a lesbian.I'll move to another school, which has a lot of stories about girls making out. Well, as every of those girls I want to try it too! I really need help.

Around 150,000 gay pupils have been targeted by school bullies with some even receiving death threats, a survey has found.

(Advertisement)
Equality organisation Stonewall said two-thirds of lesbian and gay pupils have experienced homophobic bullying, ranging from verbal abuse to violence with some pupils claiming that their teachers even joined in with the abuse.

The study of 1,145 gay, lesbian and bisexual young people found that 41 per cent had experienced physical abuse, 17 per cent had received death threats and 12 per cent had been sexually assaulted.

And the study claimed around 50 per cent of teachers failed to intervene when children used homophobic language like "dyke" or "queer".

Stonewall chief executive Ben Summerskill said the figures suggested about 156,000 pupils had suffered homophobic bullying in Britain's schools.

It seems like everyplace you look, on TV, movies, books, etc., the French are portrayed as being very rude and antisocial to people who aren't from there or speak their language. Is this true?

I know I'm talking about a stereotype and this is a horrible way to judge individuals. For the record, I would never use a stereotype to label someone I have met, I just wanna know if there is any truth to it, and if so how much

For the record, I am an American who has never been to Europe, but wants to real badly.

Whenever you hear about the KKK or other similar racist organizations, you hear very little about any of their members attending college or doing much past high school. They feel they have the right to attack every person of another race, uneducated, educated, accomplished, poor, hardworking, lazy, it doesn't matter, yet they seem to rarely have be educated themselves.

I'm not saying their past was good, I know they have suffered a lot in the past. But right now Native Americans seem to have the most perks in America. They get money from the goverment, they also have a good amount of their college paid for. It must be good being a Native American right now. To bad countries like Japan can't pay their debt to the countries that they killed and raped, at least America is paying their debt. Even if that debt won't fully heal the wound, it at least helps it, and its sad Japan won't even consider that.

Assume that you believe in evolution, if the first humans evolved from apes, wouldn't they have been white.
Afterall, although apes have brown or black fur, the skin is generally white underneath the fur. So when those proto-human apes shed their fur, wouldn't they have been white initially?

It never ceases to amazes me the level of the comments people give on this forum. Where does all the bitterness and cynicism come from? Do people who make such hateful cruel comments have meaningful relationships and lives outside of the net?

Do you think you know who you are? Maybe Irish, Italian, Jewish, Chinese, or one of the dozens of other hyphenated Americans that make up the United States melting pot? Think deeper—beyond the past few hundred years. Back beyond genealogy, where everyone loses track of his or her ancestry—back in that dark, mysterious realm we call prehistory. What if I told you every single person in America—every single person on earth—is African? With a small scrape of cells from the inside of anyone's cheek, the science of genetics can even prove it.

Can I sue my employer for discrimination? I got fired because my employer said customers have been complaining about my long blonde hair. But he never gave me the choice to cut off some of it. I was never told of complaints until now, and also there is a white man who works for him who has long blonde hair but was not terminated. Do you think I have a case?
