Just how far are people determined to go....in fact dedicate their whole lives to find it. What happens to their psyche when they come across it? Does their life no longer have a purpose?

Do you think that teenage girls are maturing too quickly? Are they dressing more provactive than they should be? Shouldn't their minds be on education and the future rather than sex?
No, not all teens are like this, I know, so please don't think I'm generalizing, but instead of learning and growing to be a responsible young adult, some of them have multiple sex partners, end up pregnant, drop out of school......etc......
And the way they dress is much different than it was when I was a teen. Is it parenting? Is it the media? What gives? Can we save our youth? It's so scary thinking of the terrible diseases, unwanted pregnancies, and these girls dropping out of school and having to be a mommy at 16.
What happened?

I'm no liberal left winger but I'm starting to get the feeling that the war in Iraq is not going well for the US. Here's a few good reasons and some counterpoints.

1- This thing was supposed to end 3 years ago when the statute came down. Bush (the C in C) said shortly after "major combat operations in Iraq is over" on an aircraft carrier w "Mission Accomplished" banner overhead.

Since that time we've had at least Three (3) major battles in Iraq (1st and 2nd Battle of Fallujah and the Cemetary battle against the Sadr Army in Baghdad). Also dozens of security operations and at least a few hundred IED incidents killing and maiming US troops and more or less innocent Iraqi civilians.

2- This situation continues. It ebbs and flows but MORE US troops have died and been injured (over 2000 KIA) after Pr. Bush said major combat in Iraq is over than during the initial invasion.
This along with not finding any WMDs the noted causa belli of the neocons has I believe hurt Bush's creds.

I don't know what it is, but it seems that teenagers are less responsible, careless and are filled with so much angst. I can say some of it is probably attributed to a lack of good parenting, but really, does anyone else notice this? I realize that not all teens are like this, so I am really trying hard not to generalize.....but what is your opinion of this? Honestly! What differences have you noticed since you were a teen? I was one years ago, and I can honestly say that things are very different. I know that they have more peer pressure and other issues at hand, and I know that times change as well. And I know that through all generations it's a rough period of time to grow up. And I realize I will probably get a lot of slack from teens, but it will only prove my point.

This is kind of a funny story. I work in a setting w/ a lot of Jewish people, maybe 25%. I like & respect them. But I get asked an awful lot if I am Jewish. Or better yet, I just get asked how my Hannukah or Seder or Shabbat was (like I am so obviously Jewish they needn't even question it). Often, when I say" no" or "not at all", they say "Oh, well, you look it." (Jewish people would ask & say this 99% of time) or "Are you sure? You look it."

Ok, so I got married 1.5 years ag. I would say I used to get asked once a month.
So far (1.5 years), not once.

My new last name is very waspy sounding, English ,etc.

So the thing is, why do I "look" Jewish only w/ the "Jewish" last name (which was actually Austrian).

I think maybe sometimes people say you "look it" just because they feel a little foolish when they are wrong, and want to justify it. no?

Thanks & remember I love the Jewish people I work w/ I just find it amusing & odd!

Who do you vote for when student elections come around? Do you usually vote for the most popular kid? Doesn't that make you a douchbag? Shouldn't you let people do the job they're good at?
Honestly answer like you mean it. I don't even car if you're superficial and shallow because the fact is that most people are superficial and shallow. They care about crap like what color the prom decorations should be and unimportant things like that. So although I'm verbally abusing the way you live your life if you're a superficially shallow person, answer with all honesty.

Me and my gf have been kissing for a while and I was wondering if she would be up for slamming the wall kind of sex or take things slow like introducing oral sex first, then slowly when the moment comes, take our clothers off and begin sequence instead of once the moment comes, just go wild.

I see it as a view of the world that is never complete, ever changing (dynamic) and of which everyone receive some random pieces. Sometimes they overlap among the population and consensus is reached, and sometimes they clash and there is disagreement. It´s a puzzle that is ever forbidden to see whole. Do you think it makes sense?
