Will anyone else admit that they recognize the trends that kids are into now but won't admit? Some of them are:

1. internet language, such as dragging the last letters of a word to express emotion (John Mayeerrrrrrrrrrrr!)
2. use of certain words (emo, cuteness, hottness, gay, coolio, whack, random)
3. websites like myspace and youtube
4. EATING a certain way, i.e. breaking off little peices of the foods rather than bringing the thing up to your mouth like it should be
5. giving hugs all the time for no reason

... I can name so many more

I just don't understand it!!! There are all kinds of black guys dating white girls and no one says anything, and it doesn't bother me. What does bother me, though, is that I really prefer white guys (especially italian, with that dark hair and those light eyes!!) but it seems that they are all looking for white chicks! What's the deal? I can get black guys and hispanics, but not those beautiful blue-eyed boys! Why is there a double standard when it comes to this? Are white guys ashamed to date black women or are they just not attracted to them? And that stereotype about black women being loud - that's a bunch of crap! I am DEFINITELY not loud, but it seems like, a lot of times i don't even get the chance to show it. I have dated some white guys, but they seem so scared! What's the deal, yall???

Are Italians, latin or white? Says, in Florence they are lighter than the ones from Sicilia. My friend is from Firenze and she's blond blue eyed with very pale skin, and she said she's latina? Her mother, though, when filling up official forms always use 'caucasian'. So, anyone can explain?

Do you agree or diagree with this statement? Explain.

...sex, companionship/search of monogamy, bragging rights, or something else? When you're dating do you have an objective? What's your motivation behind your dating?...

It seems there's a growing backlash against larger people. Considering that the average person is "overweight," it seems like some sort of counterproductive, self-hate. If some of the people on Yahoo Answers is a cross segment of society (Oh, God), there are plenty of people that loathe fat people. Why?

Two people were arrested by seattle police last week, for having sex with a horse ! This is not a joke; this is a true story.

Have you ever seen or heard of people like that ? What do you think of them ?

Why Are People So Prejudiced Against Overweight People??

i dont understand why american tax dollars are spent on fightng aids-giving drugs away to people in othe countries, when we have people in our own country who dont have the money to buy medication they need to live.. I dont understand. We should take care of our own, before others. its not like that money isnt needed here at home.

This is in referance to my last question. I noticed that A LOT of answers implied that fat people stink. I am what society would consider fat or even obese. I am far from lazy, hold down a full time job, I am a full time single mother, my house is so clean you can eat off of the floor (But I prefer the kitchen table LOL). I DON'T SMELL BAD! FAR FROM IT!!! I take two showers a day, I dress nicely, use make-up and really take care of my personal hygeine. I am also a complete Germophobe, so I can't stand mess or dirt, my only issue is that I am fat. So why is it that when people see, think about or picture a fat person they automatically assume people who are on the larger side are lazy and smell bad?? I put fat in quotations because society standards of thin is unatainable unless you are anorexic or bulimic, neither of which are very appealing ways to achive physical perfection, yet women do it all of the time.

why do most people on here think that just because a person is underwieght and trying to gain or find new exercises or something that they automatically have some kind of eating disorder? not every underweight person has an eating disorder. just like not all skinny people have an eating disorder. and please no snide remarks or stupid answers.

Death is a huge step in every life. When euthanasia is finally legalised world-wide, do you think there will be a growth the the 'Managed Passing' industry? I think it would be nice if there was a company that provided permanent holidays for the terminally ill. They could go on a nice cruise or a holiday and be pampered before they are peacefully put to rest. What do you think?
