generally answer all the questions with nice warm, fuzzy answers. Do you generally really believe that the questioners are really being 100% sincere and honest, and do you think everyone who "says" they were disrespected deserves to be pampered and answered sweetly.
Two examples: girl who referred to "old Gringo bags". One answerer said she was SURE the girl asking was a sweet and lovely person...but shouldn't use racial slurs. Another insists that 3 church girls in her college are able to persuade all the rest of the class to harrass her. People fall for this, really? I'm amazed that so many can be so gullible. Are you often just reinforcing unacceptable actions by these sweet little assurances that the Asker is always in the right, IF the Asker happens to be your same sex, religion or holds the same type of job that you have, or had? Anyone care to comment?
Attacking me for the question is not appreciated, but at least don't make it a warm and fuzzy attack, pretty please.

DrShorty, I often appreciate your answers, but I did give two examples of people, in my opinion, in real need of an awakening. I'm not talking about "I lost my Mom and her dog in a housefire", type things. Or is the first answerer correct, and women are very gullible?

Thanks Faerie: The school "girl" in question was of college age, in college. She described her bullies as "Church Girls", and at best I would not ever take something like that on face value. I doubt that you would either, from your answer. But many did. I didn't, and the "girl" found a way to contact me, and turned out to be just as mean as I suspected, so I was happy to have not bought into the scam. I still question the mentality of someone who always gives "warm, fuzzy answers", and appreciate ALL the comments. I think this is a good forum for opinions on things like this.

Again, I ask, why are people SO willing to stick up for people who belong to common groups. Did you look up the definition of naive and gullible? Did you look up synonyms? If not, why not? You must have a good reason

Nicole, same exact message that I also posted here, Didn't realize it was rude to give you a heads up.

Gee your such a swell guy I just don't know what to say!

These are women they are trained to be nice and believe people. Besides look how many laughs we get out of them.
Just be glad women are so gullible and believe us.

Ok, the first question I would not respond with such a sweet and fuzzy answer and state that I am sure she is a nice girl. Actually I am almost positive that she isn't a nice girl, quite bigoted actually. But the second question may actually be the truth, girls in school can be VERY malicious and manipulative. There is a possibility that these girls were convincing the class to be cruel to the asker.

Women are not gullible, not all of them. There are just as many gullible women as there are men. Some women allow themselves to get taken advantage of as some men do. But as as the women who are answering the questions that are blatant trolling with warm and fussy answers.....they can be trolling themselves or they actually believe the question. If there is a questionable question, I go into a persons profile and try to see their other q's and a's before answering. If their profile is private I may not answer the question or I will answer it carefully.

It's hard to tell on Yahoo! Answers whether an asker is being sincere or is joking. I can recognize questions that I think are pretty unbelievable, but I often say something along the lines of, "I think this is a joke, but just in case it isn't..." What if the person really needs some SERIOUS help?

the priority is your poem is merely too long. it type of feels compelled and contrived. merely write hi on slightly paper and hand it to her. Or draw a sprint smiley face on the backside of the subsequent to-do checklist you provide her. do no longer you already sign her examine besides? What else does she % from you?
