But its pronounced "Fryers"

Her/his name is Cassandra g and if you read their questions, they are in need of trouble [seriously]. They emailed me several times saying that they're minors and they're trying to find their lost dad and they dont want to call police because where they are hiding right now has no phone and they'll take them back.

They're in a shelter place and found computers where they are and thats why they're on yahoo answers. They're brother and sisters. HELP!

My friend is under the impression that REAL women wear pink gingham dresses, heels, and bake cookies in the kitchen all day long. He is not a hermit and goes out in public regularly- I just don't think he really pays attention to women all that well.

Some of his other assertions-

1) I can't be a real woman because I choose to drive a pickup truck and drink beer. I dropped the engine in the truck with the help of my brother and got it running. (I live in the country and they are more practical than cars).
2) It's not womanly to like to shoot and collect guns.
3) He asked me if I would ever wear skirts and dresses- I told him yes, but not every day.
4) He keeps asking me "what do you want- a man or a woman?", as if my only motive for a sex change is sex.
5) He tries to tell me that women don't eat steak or hamburgers because his dates always ate salads.

Is it me, or is he just out of step with how women really are- he only saw what we wanted him to see?

I may have my faults and I will be the first to admit that I am a work in progress and always need to improve, but why dont people think before they speak and why do people feel the "need" to offer unsolicted advice?

For example a realtive said to me Oh you cannot have children and you had surgery to prevent kids because of medical and financial reasons you should come to terms with it accept it and go on?

I was aghast and caught off guard that anyone would say such a thing knowing damn well all I ever wanted was children. I deal with this all the time and we dont feel led to adopt.

Why do people always feel like they have the god given right to try to verbally "fix" what is wrong with a poor choice of words?

I would NEVER say anything like that do someone exspeically if I knew they could not conceive or have children? How can I make certain I never become uncompassionate or insenstive to peoples needs?

I moved from Poland to the US 7 years ago. I go back now and then but I feel like here is my home. For all of you that migrated, where do you feel most at home? What do you miss most about your original country? Do you notice any social changes when you go back? Do you want to go back for good?

P.S. No hate answers pls. If you don't like my question, just keep going.

My stomach rumbles like an avalanche,
Mercilessly obliterating all in its wicked path,
A pocket of gas grazes my sphincter hole as I excuse myself from class,
Too late.
Burning, like the fires of Hell, a rotten egg flatus gas
emits silently from my unsuspecting butthole
The air around me gets dense and moist with the hot, muster of rotten eggs
People around me, shooting glances of disgust this way and that,
Sssppppssss...oops, another pocket of flatus gas flees my buttcrack and meshes with the existing pass gas in the air,
embarrassed, i shoot glances of disgust right back at my fellow classmates,
everybody looks around, desperately sniffing their armpits--anything that is better than this insufferable gas,
what to do?
ssssppppppssss, ooopsie, another gas exits,
sweat jutts down my face and I feel uneasy, these flatus gas emittances are looking to be the bane of my existence,
will anyone forgive my social transgressions?
does anyone know its me?
squeeek!!, oops, now, every1 nos its me!

I'm a flat broke college kid. I make just enough to pay my rent and my utilities and buy gas to get to work. There is never much left over for food, and its getting pretty bad. I'm not in any real danger of starving, but I'll be blunt- if it isn't pasta, its stolen. I've eaten out of dumpsters before, but I don't like doing that. My parents don't have anything left to give me, and my friends have helped as much as they can. I know I have the option of applying for welfare and food stamps, but I don't want to do it. I don't want to be 'that girl' at the grocery store who whips out the food stamps. I don't want to be stared at, and I don't want to be pitied. My pride is fighting me on this. My question is- when is it time to swallow my pride? Should I stick to my guns and make things work, or should I give in and the the government help me? What would you do?

Do those who are or have been Sheiks have to do anything special to obtain this title ?

Once given or earned, do you keep this title forever or can it be withdrawn due to certain circumstances?

Is this title strictly for certain countries to use for certain people?

If I were able to become a Sheik-ette, would I then be permitted to have a harem of men? Would men go for this or are they too pigheaded?

Why do I care ? Oh its just something that's bugging me I guess !

Anything you can teach me about Sheiks would be greatly appreciated.

Ok, i feel stupid asking this question, a friend of mine just heard about this too. She was telling me about it this morning and neither of us have ever heard of it and don't really understand what it is all about. Aparently the new thing for teenage girls to do (at least in our area, which is the Philly region of PA) is to put a large sticker of their first initial in their bedroom windows if they "wh*re themselves out". Does anyone know what this is all about, or has anyone heard of/done this before. I'm only 24, so i can't believe i'm THAT out of the loop, but my friend is only 19 and this is new news to her too so it must be extremely new. I am actually interested in it though, not because i want to do it as i am sure i'll get accused, but my brothers girlfriend apparently has stuck one on her window and we're a little concerned by it..ecspecially finding out she slept with all of his friends behind his back. i also have teen step-daughters and want to keep ahead of this stuff.

because they are people too, no matter their race or background or do you need to be respected by them first.

Speaking for myself I respect all until I have been disrespected by them.Then I will start to lose my respect.
But I will always allow my respect of them to return once they have earned it back. What are your feelings on this topic??

(please no dooms-day religious rants ok. I want to know if man will reach utopia before it's too late or not)
We have technology on our side to adapt with, we know how to laugh and drink booze, and politically influential Religious institutions will hopefully be nullified as nothing more than moral messengers without their prophecy's mucking it up. Maybe then we can all live in a Utopian World sooner rather than later. Which, by the way (no pun intended), is all any Aliens possibly passing by would expect from their neighbors here living in this most beautiful of Galaxy's anyway, namely The Milky Way, but only if we don't screw up by being stupid and disrespectful to each other. _____________________________________________________ _____________________________________________________ Why would anybody go a mile out of their way to step on an Ant hill - Jimi Hendrix

Why do people condemn Hillary for sticking to her marriage, but easily vote for an inarticulate C average man?

If an Ivy league top notch surgeon had the ability to cure your cancer, would you care about the marital infedelities of the surgeon's spouse? Why?
Do you bring your personal business and your marital woes to your job?

Also what about forgivness and the shameful increasing divorce rate in our country. I am proud that she stuck it out and made it work instead of giving up.

A lot of times when you tell an overweight women that you perfer toned, thin, or women of average weight they become so insulted. I hear a lot of comments from them like "why would you want a bony girl when you can have a curvacious girl with meat on her bones" or "what are you a child molester going after girls with no **** or *** that are built like little boys?". I'm not saying that men should hate or insult overweight women but honestly its just not as attractive to most men. Like most women want a man bigger then them, most men want women that are smaller then them. I just hate seeing these women wear clothes way to small for them and then get defensive when you don't find them attractive.
