..dress codes and whatnot are set because of "proper-ness"
so at my school the girls cannot wear shirts that are lower than the collarbone, skirts that go above the knee and so on..but isnt it the guy's fault in the first place of even thinking about the girl's body? If guys didnt see that as attractive, then it probably wouldnt be considered premiscuous...does that make sense? :-/

It was said that in the 1960's the Philippines was second to Japan. In the 70's Hong Kong & Taiwan, Singapore overtook the Philippines. Followed by Malaysia, Thailand, Indonesia, India in the 80's and in the late 90's Vietnam and some more. Now, it seems that war torn Cambodia will overtake the Philippines. I think the Philippine Citizens are intelligent, hardworking and loyal but it seems that for the past 40 years they have been lagging behind now. Corruption is just one aspect but it will not thrive if majority supports it or there are silent conspirators. What's up with the Philippines? It had all the opportunities to be great but look at it now. I have heard several times that her asian neighbors are laughing at the Philippines.

Check it out . It is one of the pages you can click through on the Home Page of Yahoo Answers.
It reads "Robert Deniro on Answers" discussing "Secret Societies".
And it is a blog that I guess he started or whoever is advertising for him. It is kind of rediculive of the theories which claim their is an "elite society" ruling the world.
It seems kind of strange that a famous Hollywood actor would be doing a blog on Yahoo Answers about this subject , but nonetheless it is there , right now.

I get sick and tired of ppl "black" that are always saying something about racism. Im not a racist, never was, and never will be, but I am tired of "well its b/c im black"!!!! Our ancestors are the ones that did slavery not this generation, GET OVER IT. You all are just as equal as I am, but yet you still get mad over little things. Just b/c your black doesnt mean you should get a job before anyone else and doesnt mean you should get money for college. Study hard like everyone else and get loans and grants for school, stop waiting for a handout. Remember Martin L. King wasnt no angel, he had a lot of skeletons in his closet and by the way it was a white man who helped free the slaves..........Abraham Lincoln. Just my opinion!!!

My fiance and I are moving there next year, so that he can finish school and we would like a nice starter home....but I have heard so many horror stories, about houses that look nice, but are built badly and high crime rates. I've been told that the west side of Lawrence is the nicest...Where is the best place to buy a well built starter home, where we can start a family?

Hey, from these pics, what race/ethnicity do I look like? No stupid answers please, this is for a school project. An experiment on what other people think your race is, just based on a picture. Thanks!

All you’re doing is regurgitating the same old equation. School, plus degree, equals good job. Good job equals good money, equals security. Security plus women, equals marriage equals children. All of which is greater than or equal to happiness. I’m sorry to say but the math is bunk. I won’t even go into the inflationary value of a college degree or the rising divorce rate.

Here it is copied and pasted:

Mr. **********,

Due to the fact that Feburary is Black History MOnth I am requesting to have the month off to celebrate my heritage and those of color. This should not comeout of my vacation time and it should be paid, I know of other employers who do this (most do actually) so this is more of a heads up.

Sincerely,

********

I was in shock. I don't even know how to respond.

I think my generation is completely stupid. From drugs to sex, everything is completely selfish. Also, Rap music is complete bullcrap. It is a sad excuse for "music." The only reason idiots enjoy listening to it is because they are forced to by "peer pressure."

who agrees? i know some of you havent been transformed into complete idiots, following nothing but the media...

I'm trying to write an article on polo and Argentina. I've done my usual research but have come up blank. All I have is that Argentina plays a huge role in the world of polo. What I don't know is how they got to be among the top and what made them reach their status now.
