Arm and leg hair were symbols of youth and fertility, or so I've heard. But, I don't know how far this is true.

i believe our lives are a road taking us to our ultimate destination ...some peoples paths are long, some short but we all have a purpose to being here. that purpose may be that you are here to learn lessons or to give lessons to help other people to learn what they are meant to know...i believe that we all get what we are meant to have in this life, be it money ,success, good luck, bad luck....the secret is to look for the lesson and learn from it. the time you die is pre-set...how often have you heard of the old man who smoked and drank his whole life and lived to 100....then theres the young fit athlete who drops down dead in their 20s? do you agree with this theory?

All children are special, innocent & delicate. All of them deserve a good quality of life, education, food, education, entertainment. Why should people who are themselves not able to earn a living be allowed to bear kids & make them suffer.

Do any of you know any women in jail, or are you a woman who's been in jail. Is it easy? Do some of them even turn lesbian for the time and have great relationships? In a man's jail, your pretty much dead unless your the biggest, most evil guy. Basically, either be someones b*tch or die, which both of those choices leads to your death, or humiliation and then death. But in women's jail, how different is it? Is it different at all? Do women fear for their lives in jail as well as men do? Or is jail for women just a minor irritation, & more of a annoying vacation from society but nothing too dramatic?

Just curious.

Are women today spoiled? Do they care less about attacting a man since they can make their own money? Why were women willing to wear them and suffer the discomfort in order to look better back then - but now they hang out with rolls of fat, jeans falling off their hips and a generally slovenly look? Have women lowered the bar - and men have just gone along with it?

How many of you would accept the return of the type of slavery that took place in U.S., but with your group being the one doing the slaving?

That is to say, regardless of your skin color and cultural background, if your group were the masters, would you welcome having slaves in the same conditions as they were before?

I'm black and I say even if the tables were turned somehow, I just couldn't treat another human being in such a savage way (separating families like cattle, beating them, lynching them, raping them, forbidding education to them and then calling them stupid, etc.)

So It's open house, speak your piece, but keep it peaceful.

I understand that sometimes people are in a hurry, or just don't care whether others can read or understand what they are saying, but I have a hard time understanding why someone would take the time to ask a question and not even proofread what they have typed. I mean, the "Check Spelling" button is right next to the entry box. I can't believe it is all ignorance ... it seems there is a general lack of caring about the language and communication. Thoughts?

I was a California teen in the 1960's and have seen the evolvement of society. Why, with so much overall awareness and insight do people still focus on skin color? I would think a person's personal preference might be valid only to the point if one is attracted to long vs short hair, strong features vs softer features, guy / girl next type look vs exotic look, plump vs thinner, darker vs lighter skin, status, humor, quiet vs more assertive etc. etc. etc. When a person is seen within we all have the same body organs, blood, bones etc. It's the temperment, heart, soul, humor, mind etc. that's of interest to someone that is in the visual that appeals to them. I wish people would stop with the white verses other color race already. Color is variety...it's the personalty and heart that's of truth. We are not he minds of the ignorance of generations past. Sincerely . . . enlighten me . . . why does society still focus on the color a persons skin so much?

I am a complete ***** to alot of people, i dont try to be that way i just am. Dont get me wrong i treat all of my friends like they are the best thing in the world, but it seems that every guy i meet or talk to tells me he loves me. I'm not a very loveable person. I have crazy mood swings and i dont generally tell people im sorry about them, becase i dont feel sorry, and it's not my problem if they decide to be mad at me. But i feel that love is so much more than just wanting to sleep with someone, so why do all these guys believe they love me? I dont lead people on, and i am very straight forward about how i feel about a person. So how else can i stop this from happening?
