Other - Cultures & Groups - September 2006

I have a new friend that I am concerned about. I will try to explain as best I can
This person is always leaving jobs for the flimsiest reasons. Therefore this person is always looking for a job. This person was homeless on several occasions, but has an apartment now. Just recently this person is without a job again and is in danger of being evicted if a job isn't found in time to pay the next installment of rent.
This person is always telling me that they are looking for something better and when they get it, it is not what they are looking for so they quit after a season.
My question is how do you deal with a friend who tells you something and it just doesn't seem to ring true with you? Something is wrong or missing in what they say and you just can't put your finger on it!

I just saw a question posed that asked "what is teabagin" and i noticed that yahoo customer care had deleted the question. I think it is very important for people to be able to ask questions about bodies, sex, and sexuality. Safe, open communication about such things can lower people's risks of STD's/STI's etc.
How do you feel about yahoo sensoring people's questions?

I am so disgusted about the KKK. Why are they still allowed to be a group? Because of freedom of speech?

Ok, attempt # 3



Ok, quick survey. First, thanks for your honest answers.


1. Who here has cut themself, or has a friend/friends who cuts?

2. Is this a form of stress relief?

3. What first caused you (or your friend/s) to try cutting?

4. How many of you have told an adult?

5. If you haven't told an adult, what is your biggest hurdle in doing so?

6. Do you want to stop, and if so, what have you done to re-direct your stress relief?

7. How many of you have tried online sites like recoveryourlife.com to cope with cutting?

8. If it is not too personal, what are your ages and sexes?

9. Do you listen to emo?

10. Is it stereotyping to ask if you listen to emo, or is it true there is a link between this type of music and cutting?



Wow...I know, a lot of questions! Guys, thanks again to anyone who is sincere & will take the time to answer these questions. I am doing a paper for a class, but I genuinely would like to learn more about this.

Can't people or producers tell the difference or do people see it so much in movies, TV that they can't tell anymore? Just wondering. Not meaning to offend anyone or not saying that it is wrong, I am just curious. Thank you.

I really think some black men and white women get into interracial relationships to piss of black women and white men. I really don't think most black women and white men even care that much. Please understand that I'm not trying come down on interracial relationships, this is just something that I've noticed.

I feel as if I'm portrayed as an evil person, because I just live in America. Granted Our leader is a complete idiot, but Why should I A Disabled person whos only crime is being born in a country where we have embraced the 21 century with open arms. However the people of the middle east have yet to accept the 21 century. Why Am I So Evil? I really dont get it. Why do Musliums hate me so much? And no I'm not going to convert. Thats for you christains and jews too.

If skin color can have anything to do with racism, then what about dumb blonde jokes? After all it is picking them out of the crowd and insulting them like they were crap.

I personally don't have anything against interracial dating.
However, I have noticed that some black men actually think that they are hurting us or think that we are jealous of them dating white women.
Some men act cocky, as if we actually wish we could be with them.
Where did they get that perception? Certainly not from me.

Better yet, what is up with thier egos?

It's all love. You like who you like, I respect that.

my husband is a Cherokee indian...his great grandfather is still alive and is a medicine man in california.that's just a little background...this is his question: why are black people still so hostile about slavery? it sucks for them true enough...but at least they were allowed to LIVE! Native american indians were exterminated!!!warriors,elders, women, and babies...even their ponies were slaughtered!!! American indians are truely the minority!!!!! black people aren't a minority any more, there's as many blacks now days as whites!and besides...black people were selling their own into slavery! so think about that next time you want to whine about being a minority...try being a native american indian

I was an unsuccessful scout. I was very nonconformist. I refused to use pasta to make a picture preferring tiny brown rice mosaics, I fashioned nooses on macrame day instead of plant hangers. Dues were a dime and I brought a twenty and demanded change.
