I'm doing it right now. What does that say about me? You? Anyone who does it? I have an important job and I'm in a high profile position. I sit behind a closed door in an office with nobody to watch over my shoulder. I still get my work done (and done well), but why am I doing this? Why are you doing this? Are certain people predispositioned for this behavior? Who and why?

I'm 23 and a cleaner,anyway, people have always said i'm a pretty woman etc. I've noticed that when i have my tracksuit bottoms on etc and my hair tied back,people say their usual hello but dont bother talking to me. When it was the xmas meal i straightened my hair and made myself look beautiful and all of a sudden people were talking to me and complimenting me,whereas at work they cant be bothered with me. Just goes to show how shallow people are. Why do they treat me nicer when i dress myself up?i'm still the same person?

My neighbor is an older woman and her husband in their 50s and since I moved here, she's been harassing me and my husband. When I moved here, she left me a bag of spoiled garbage and a note accusing me and my husband of being "fake" Christians because we steal things from little children, which is totally false I have never stolen from anybody (we make pretty good money). She goes around telling other neighbors lies about us and just making up stories about us. She flips me the finger when she sees me in front of my kids and she stares me down to the point where I feel uncomfortable. She makes false complaints about us to our landlord. I had company over at about 8:00pm on a Friday and we were watching a funny movie..we started to laugh and she banged on the wall! I am a Christian so I don't want to stoop to her levels but I am running out of patience!

Unless your business is illegal or harmful to others, shouldn't people just work on trying to take care of themselves and leave you alone?

I've seen this cliche on here and it got me thinking...

What motivates white men who date black women primarily? Guilt? Forbidden? What?

Or, am I supposedly viewing my white fiance as a trophy subconsciously, according to these cliches?

You had Miami Vice, good music, Lacoste Shirts, Members Only jackets, Madonna, a black Michael Jackson, the 49ers were good, Phil Collins, Don Johnson, Corey Hart, cool cars, Adidas... the list goes on. Now it seems everything sucks. What is your input??

Considering the effects of too much testosterone
(aggressiveness, bullying, violence), and that
hyper-masculinity is detering guys from graduating
and progressing ...

Should we be helping guys by inhibiting testosterone
or adding estroegen (not so much as to effect their
potency, but only their behavior)?

Will society become less violent if we did this?

I'm white (Russian) and my boyfriend is black (Nigerian) and many people seem to have a problem with seeing the 2 of us together. Some of my family members are reluctant to accept our relationship, warning me about having to deal with social pressure (unfortunately they don't seem to understand that for me they are the main source of that pressure) and bringing it up as a con. I have no clue what they are talking about because a) I've never dated anyone who isn't Russian and b) all i see in this guy is his intelligence, character, and a bunch of other stuff that makes me fall for him. So what's the problem? What rule are we breaking? My family doesn't hate him or anything like that and will accept him once they see that he makes me happy, but they would rather see me with a Russian because they think it would be better and easier for me.

And any tips on how to deal with the negativity coming from my family and society in general? Any personal experiences you'd like to share?

Are there any Bagists out there in Yahoo!?
I see them on TV sometimes when I watch nfl football. ( I still have yet to figure out why the bagists only seem to be in Cleveland, Detroit, Arizona. I think they moved from Cincinnati to Cleveland.) Is bagism dead? Is John Lennon's message dead? What was his message anyway?

I want to drop the titles of whatever religion you are in and list three things that you feel are important to be in a religion or faith. Then list three things you think should not be in a religion. I want your views!!! I am very curious and interested in what the differences are in the views, if any.

I don't mean to offend anyone.

Pure curiosity!

My close friend at work who just had a baby 4 months ago just found out that her husband was having an affair? His excuse, you were to busy with the baby and didnt have enough time for me. CAN YOU BELIEVE THAT. I am so angry at the male right now I want to punch them, I cannot believe he told her its her fault for knocking her up and providing motherhood for HIS child. american men can be such babies, they have a 60% adultery rate

They commit adultery and have relations with other women while they are married, why is this number so high and what does it tell you about the American male morality?

I am just asking I am too young for marriage but I was shocked by these results

My daughter has red hair, and my husband and I both have dark hair. You can not believe how many people ask us "Where did she get her red hair from?"
I can not imagine ever saying that to someone.
I am sure somewhere down the blood line someone had red hair, although my mom did not know her family, she does know she is Irish. Should I have to explain that to everyone?
And what if my daughter was adopted? Should I have to tell them that?
I really do take it lightly and have even jokingly whispered, 'she's the mailman's' but my hubby and I were talking about how we are asked this every time we go somewhere and I was wondering just how many people have the same type of stupid questions asked of them?
