I go to a high school in which Asians are a minority. About 5%. I've encountered many racist incidents and I find it very hard to ignore. Although I feel that the best way to confront this situation is to ignore it, I get very angered and disturbed when they judge me by what I look like. I hate it when they go in their groups and say racist comments when I pass by. I don't know if they're ignorant, feel the need to be superior, or whatever. A while ago, a friend of mine who moved from Japan was confronted by racist comments the first time in her life. In this way, she's gained strong dislike towards the races that have insulted her and I feel that she too has become a racist herself without realizing it. I don't think racism can be ignored because many people have problems with saying things without realizing what they've said. I don't have any issues with any race but I feel like they have an issue with me being Asian.

I'm under the firm belief that people will and SHOULD believe what they want, as I always will. But here's my questions...

a) How can someone believe in the Creation and yet believe in dinosaurs?

b) And how can people claim that evolution is a sham because there is no 'proof', and yet is there any proof for Creationism aside from the Bible?

I'm definitely NOT picking a fight with anyone and I prefer to not even bring up such subjects, because it makes no difference for either side - but I'm curious in your civilized thoughts on the matter? Fair warning; if you are disrespectful, I may report you.

I've never been a popular kind but people seem to be giving me more trouble lately. I found out the whole class was talking about me and I'm quiet! So I don't know why these girls don't like me so much. But I hate that I have to live this way. How can I change things? I'm a junior and I don't want to mess this or next year up.

It seems every day that i hear about someone new being kidnapped, but what is being done to prevent this kinda a stuff from happening again? And why isn't anyone standing up and asking their voice to be heard out loud so the world knows that they want their children back? Are they scared that we might actually listen or what?

Many Kuwaitis nowadays complain about how terrible Kuwait University (the only university in Kuwait from 1966 until 2004 when other private ones were opened) has become these days. The reputation of Kuwait University is sinking by the day as we hear more and more complaints about it. The question is what has lead the university become such a horrible place to study in?

For a simple definition, let's say it means "being willing to publicly kiss a person of any other race". (American (Native American); Asian (Chinese, Japanese, Filipino, Indian, Hmong, Malay, etc); African (Hottentot, Pygmy, Negro, various North Africans, etc); Caucasian (European ancestry, Turkish, Jewish, Parsi, etc); Other (Eskimo, Polynesian, Orang Asli, Ainu, Konyak Naga, etc)

I'm not gorgeous. I'm going to start out by pointing out that i don't think that i'm beautiful or great or anything. But women are almost always rude to me, they look at me and instantly give me attitude when i haven't done anything but be friendly. There are so women that take one look at me and instantly don't like me. What is with people like this? Don't they know that i have feelings too?...

This has been irritating me lately, it's getting to where whenever i know i have to meet a woman, i instantly dread it. Of course there are exceptions, sometimes there are very non-jealous women, but there are a ton of jealous/petty females out there!

criticised what you wear/ what make up you used and go around asking people on what they think im wearing but ended up using and buying the same thing we used and suddenly their popularity rocketed sky high. i donoe whats wrong with me im always target since i was even in my schooling days.
example.:
during my schooling days : i wasnt wearing any make up and this girl go around asking people what make up i'm wearing to make my face like that...and insist that i cannot be totally acne free.. (i was like huh)
an old collegue of mine used to make fun of me coz i was wearing black eyeliner saying i look emo that kind of crap. the next week she same in started using even harsher eyeliner and people thought she started the trend.
another woman even worst.just coz i was wearing green coloured lenses she even have the guts to preach about why im unhappy with what god has given my eye colour .. and few months later she started using BLUE lenses.i was like whatt?

WHY!! ME !!!

So i'm in 10th grade..(i know way old for a little school bully). But anyway, i have been coming into class late for like the past week because i have had a headace, and different reasons and everytime i come in this fat black girl (i'm half black so i'm not racist, lol) laughs and like chuckles and obviously talks about me with her little ghetto friends. Yesterday i was even crying when i came in from a seperate issue and she was still cracking up when i walked in. Shes been kinda teasing me all year and usually i would just try to laugh with her but now its too much and i need to do something about it. also i have no friends in the class. she also wants to steal my ipod and phone and money. people say i just act like a little scared white girl and i hate it! what should i do to make her stop..and how should i change in general?
