i work at a tile and material store. we mostly have cement and grout sales which come in bags of 10-50 pounds. i'm the only employer: 5feet tall, 120 pound -girl.

here's the thing that i can't figure out:
the mexican men that come into the shop, will NOT let me help carry anything for them; even if they're by themselves and just bought 25 bags of cement...and they're really nice about it.

while the american men just don't care; in fact; if i just stand there while they load the 25pound bags; they'll give me dirty looks.

why do you think?

I'm a 31 year old man who is sick and tired of feeling intimidated by aggressive people. Physically I have the appearence of a strong man, but mentally and emotionally I feel like a dog with his tail between his legs. People (particularly aggressive people) can suconsciously pick up on this, and use it to walk all over me, knowing that I'm too scared to empower myself and stand up against their oppression. I DONT WANT TO LIVE LIKE THIS ANY MORE!!!!. What can I do about this? Is there anyone out there who can really REALLY help me? Living like this is like living in a self-imposed prison, and it's a nightmare! I don't want to become a bully, I just want to feel GENUINELY empowered and able to take care of myself when I need to. I don't want to be anyone's doormat NO MORE!! Someone, somewhere show me the way please!!!

Do you think it is harder to be a man or a woman or do both have the same sort of opportunities and obstacles in a culture? Provide examples in order to support your point of view.

I have a friend who is, it seems, quite level headed and down to earth, young family, career etc etc. Thing is, he wants a handgun to keep in the house, locked away, in case of nation-wide violence (this is in the UK, handguns illegal). He is a responsible guy, captain of the local rifle-shooting club, but is desperately trying to get his hands on a handgun for the reasons outlined above.

What should I/he do? Do I report him? What?

It seems like there's a trend going, that people love to be very very busy these days. Are you one of them? If yes, why do you like to be busy?

Doesn't anyone take it easy anymore? People seem to act like if they slow down or stop, the entire universe will collapse.

I empathasize with the Palestinian cause to the point that I support (from the armchair), any action that is taken by Palestinian militants; if you actually look at their situation they believe they are fighting justly to regain their homeland, and all they have left to fight with is their bodies and ageing small arms, hence their seemingly desperate tactics against an enemy (in their eyes) with unlimited resources...so are their actions really that deplorable? I can honestly see, were my country taken over by a hostile force, many of our citizens rising up in a similar fashion with no hesitations about using bombs or booby traps.

Is there any way I can help their cause without being imprisoned or branded a terrorist?

Sensible answers only please.
