Having the "need", but being denied it till they are of "age"? But we do
it anyway. And telling us we're "bad", and threatening us with Hell, drives us
nuts!

Is it consumerism gone wild?
Is it poor diet?
Is it poor exercise habits?
Is it because they like to be obese?
Is it sexy?

Everytime I come home to America I notice that the people are more obese. Even the kids are obese.
And the people are all looking somehow the same. Pudgy faces, 2 to 3 chins, all the figures on men and women interchangeable.
Where is Jack LeLane when you need him?
Richard Simmons is loving it I bet though.
What do you think? Am I crazy or is it like that?

these is natural and which is unnatural?

My grandmother who is Jamaican used to say, "Some things are best left forgotten." This is my view, and a view shared by many Jamaicans regarding the horrors of slavery. While I respect and understand the African American view that 'to remember the past is to not repeat it' this is not a view that I share. So, if I were a parent, I would not want my child presented images of fear and hate from this very sad period in America's past. And while, I don't agree that bus loads of elementary school children are taken on tours to see it, this is an individual parent's decision. While I respect why the African American people want this exhibt included, in my oppinion, even some adults might be traumatized in viewing it moreover a young and fragile child.

In a small town (11,000) outside Chicago a book is teaching the gay life to children between the ages of 4to 6. It is about 2 male penguins who find a egg & hatch it. First of all the males did not lay the egg. The liberian said that all books should be read by any age group even if they are to young to undrestand. So do we say it is all right to teach 4 year olds that you can have a female daddy or a male mommy? cant we wait a little until they can make up their own minds?

They wouldn't be stereotypes if they weren't true about a majority of a group.That's how stereotypes come about.Almost everyone in a particular group does it.I'm Polish,but I'm not stupid.I'm French Canadian,but I'm not snooty or a surender monkey,and I'm Italian but sometimes I am loud and I do have greasy hair.I really don't care if someone makes a comment about it.In fact I joke about it.I personally blame it on everyone in America wanting to claim victim status,and because everyone is too touchy feely these days.Don't say that or I'll sue you!What ever...What does everyone else think?

This is so stupid because it bases race on social construct. Look at the average Italian and the average Argentinian and they look almost the same and many people there are from Italian immigrants.

I have been to a few different countries in my life for vactions or what ever and NEVER once did I hear anyone say to me, "If your gonna be in my country you better learn the language or go home". Are we the only nation that does this? Are we so concerned with a complete strangers conversation that we choose to take our nosieness that far? By the way those that think peopel speaking another language are talking about them,arent, they dont care about you.

I know it sounds mean, but I believe the murder rates have increased by 50% or doubled. one week last year i watched the news and kept a list of all of the bad things that happened. i had down about 6 murders, and they were all connected to katrina murderers and fights. I hear that New orleans had the top crime rate.....is it really so wrong to accept them at first, but now a year later want them to move back home? It really has nothing to do with race, but I put that in there because most people from new orleans were african american...maybe i'm just a mean person, and if u think so, don't say it with cuss words or by degrading words.

Specifically from the African-American background. We seem to find more white/asian interracial relationships being more widely accepted in this day and age. But, is it more accepted in a today's society with black/asian interracial relationship?

My grandma told me to never marry an Irish man because I told her I liked the Irish boy who lives next door. She keep on saying that they are always drunk, they beat on their wives, and they like to have a lot of sex. She said that she used to be married to an Irish man before she was married to my grandfather and the Irish man used to abuse her and he was a drunk. I think it's wrong or her to judge all Irish men and I told her that not all Irish are like that. But shes not listening to me.

I believe this. Even though I have so many liberal views about sex, birthcontrol, and prematrial sex. I think children should only be born in wedlock. I wasn't born in wedlock myself, I was suppose to but my dad was being stupid and didn't want to marrry my mom.
