I want to know why people make fun of fat people? I see people gawk, sneaker and stair at fat people. I dont get it, do they think they are without inperfetctions? Look I see it like this,- Looks and weight change for everyone through out the years of thier life- why not let people live thier life in peace, god knows that it is hard enough. They ( thought they may not say it) are in pain and in most cases it is something that is not easy to change. Why would paople say or do things to hurt them?

Is it possible to be both?

If so where do you think you fit?

...a child that is biologically related to both of you?

I have read that same-sex couples can have children -- whether by adoption or via donation of egg or sperm -- but has anyone ever thought about the fact that their child doesn't or will not have genes from both parents?

This is a serious question and not meant to offend anyone. Just trying to understand.

Thank you in advance to all who answer.

I work with somebody who just moved here (Minnesota) from Alabama. He is white. He keeps commenting that southern blacks "know their place". What he means is, they are more respectful of whites than are northern blacks. He says that the urban black up here is a violent criminal, as compared to the south. I must admit, I avoid the inner city to the best of my ability.
I don't know what to say to him, because even though I'm black, I was raised in a law-abiding middle class family, and have had very limited contact with the urban black.
So, does anybody know, is there a significant behavioral difference between southern and northern black people?

Ok...so I'm a very passable transman (female to male transsexual) and my sexual attraction is to girls. However...there's this one guy that I used to work with that I just find absolutely adorable. We tease each other all the time and give each other a lot of s**t. I'm kind of attracted to him, but not in like a sexual way. But I think he'd be fun to kind of cuddle with and hug and laugh with. So,if I'm attracted to him enough to think about cuddling with him, but NOT attracted to him enough to sleep with him, what does that mean?

FOR ALL YOU HYPOCRITES OUT THERE WHO SAY "HATE THE SIN, LOVE THE SINNER" YOUR MENTALITY IS NO DIFFERENT THAN THE EXAMPLE I'M USING IN THIS QUESTION. In other words, NEVER say it to me again. Homosexuality is not a sin or an abomination or a reason to dislike or judge anyone. How is this question different from the one below it? God made it very obvious that Jesus may only sit at his right. Left-handed people are thus inferior, so forget your Bible quotes. Left-handedness is about as harmful as homosexuality. If you want to argue disease, left-handed women are at higher risk for health problems:

And AIDS is a disease of both sexes, stemming from neither.

Ah, thank you. :) I've said my piece.

I just answered a q and it reminded me of what I did today, trying to rush and do to many things at once.
I was putting the shopping away, stirring a pan on the cooker and drying dishes when I noticed my hanging baskets needed water, so the tap is running in to the watering can, and while I'm waiting for it to fill I wipe a couple of dishes. I put my hand out and picked up my glass of grapefruit juice,with out looking and took a big mouthful. I nearly choked!
Why you ask? Because the stock cube I thought I'd crumbled in to the food on cooker was in my juice!
Now how did I do that????
omg If I had a brain I'd be dangerous! lol

So my q is? Have you done something this daft in the past couple of days. I blame it on the fact the sun has started to shine for once! lol x

The Waukegan City Council voted to train a couple of their police officers to be immigration agents. They would use these agents to implement the deportation of illegal alien felons (murderers and rapists...etc..). The latino community came out to protest this and even bussed in latinos from neighboring communities. The measure passed so now these same latinos are going to boycott any business that doesn't have an orange leaflet in their window supporting the latinos stance.

These people are in an uproar about the deportation of illegal alien murderers and rapists. That upsets me. How about you?
