We often see them talking back at their parents and teachers. They disobey parents and even fight, they start sexual activities in high school years. Doesn't the education system of western countries need reforms. Today in USA most Asian, Indians, Pakistani and other immigrant students achieve higher grades and go to colleges but number of American students is lower percentage wise.

Everytime I see a PETA "representative" on reality TV, the news, or at school, they seem so overdramatic and insane.
Are they just passionate or bored and looking for a club to be accepted into? It seems that these are the same people that join cults.
Please note that these people are not certified representatives of PETA, just one of the many members.

I am doing a course at uni, and some of my friends believe the teacher is being racist towards the majority of students who are white (to put it very broadly). The teacher himself is also white, as he told us very early in the course.
One of my friends call it reverse racism. I say racism is racism any way you look at it.
What do you think?

I was answering another Q the other day, (http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index;_ylt=AqUN_U2mS35l5wIMaa3BS5Dsy6IX;_ylv=3?qid=20071017080350AAZ6n9H&show=7#profile-info-X9L5r2h3aa)
and it showed this website that a sister created saying that we don't need to relax our hair. that we are brainwashed by our white counterparts into thinking that our own hair is 'bad, nappy, and unmanageable'. Now don't get me wrong I am sure, even positive, that this happened in the past. I have seen too many studies showing how we used to think black was ugly, but this day(2007) is post the 'black is beautiful' and 'I'm black and I'm Proud' days...Why am I only a good black if i have natural hair, or my fist up in the air, etc...When our lighter brothers (Caucasians) do the same thing, 'I'm white and proud', or hold their hands in the air (this time not in a fist), we call it HATRED, RACISM. Just food for thought,

What do you think? Do you feel it is STILL necessary to prove how black you are?

I really loved the job and for other things that I put for describing the job are catered special events, accomodated patrons and maintained sanitary environment. I also said that I was recognized for friendly and professional service.
How do I say that I interacted with the elderly and make it sound good on my resume?

A passenger in a taxi leaned over to ask the driver a question and tapped him on the shoulder. The driver screamed, lost control of the cab, nearly hit a bus, drove up over the curb, and stopped just inches from a large plate glass window.

For a few moments everything was silent in the cab, and then the still shaking driver said, "I'm sorry but you scared the daylights out of me."

The frightened passenger apologized to the driver and said he didn't realize a mere tap on the shoulder could frighten him so much.

The driver replied, "No, no, I'm sorry, it's entirely my fault.


Today is my first day driving a cab. I've been driving a hearse for the last 25 years! "


Hope I've kept you amused, I'm now going to do some chores! Have a fun day everyone hugs x

I think about sex majority of the time. It turns me on thinking about being with either a man or a woman. Is it wrong to alway think this way??

I think i've always like a girl than a guy before but lately i've proven that i am be bisexual or lesbian. I have a friend for a year til now, she lives close to me. I find her pretty though others dont and i think i'm prettier than her but that's not the issue hehe. One time i look at her in the eye showing her that i lusted for her. Look to her from head to foot. The next day, she immitates what i did. Days after, i was convinced that she's flirting back at me. I'm not a showy touchy feely type of person, i force myself not to touch her arm or other parts of her body though i really want to. But her, she is opposite than me, she touches my arm, my shoulders, she smiles and looks at me in the eyes, when we talk she touches my hand, i want to see her everyday. I think we have chemistry, we both flirted with each other. Only problem..1.our families, they would not like it 2. i'm not sure she want that kind of relationship, as for me i'm ok with it 3. does she love me?i luv her

I'm sorry I keep asking these this time for whatever reason I randomly cant sleep at night... lol... Some of you who already know my other questions know i'm trying just to figure out a way to START my transition, so.... this is kinda jumping the gun but... its been bothering me for some time. About 'dilating' to keep the... well you know to keep the girl parts from closing up? Is this something that you do for a few months? A few years? It doesn't really change my decision but it scares me a little if it has to be for the rest of your life... i'll feel like it is always closing or something I dunno... hope i'm not annoying everyone with all my questions lol.

This question is not race specific either, this applys to whites, hispanics, blacks, asians, and indians who live in section 8 housing areas. It appaulls me to think a person will provide a statement to the government that they cannot afford housing, but then can magically afford $1000 a month for a 2008 Mercedes or BMW.

for real, I was on a bit of a car trip the other day and I had to sit in the back with this lady I had just met and she was obviously scared of me. she wouldn't even look at me!!!! I tried talking to her and every time I did she would inch away and look out the window with a face of stone.

I mean c'mon first off she wasn't even good looking and second off what are these people thinking...just because I'm a homosexual that I'll make it my life mission to convert them...I mean grow up...


it's like they think I'm gonna jump out of the bushes and have my way with them...


I just don't get it...why are straight women so put off by me?? I mean what did I do????????!?!?!?!?
