- They are derived from a number of different sources. First and foremost, some combination of any names that are African sounding, some combination of some family members' names that are different from all others, the kind of car their OB drives, any name plucked from the credits of a Spike Lee movie.

You must live your life and wait until you are properly prepared, motivated, and most importantly with the right man. Remember that, without regrets, parenthood can be a blessing bestowed on you well into your 30's. Do not feel compelled to do so for others, according to their time frame. As you get older, it will feel very natural for you to want to 'share' your experiences and wisdom gained, with children. To play devil's advocate, however, I know many childless couples who are now in their 40's and 50's who would love to have children to experience their lives with. BTW, forget about the overpopulation thing. Good people foster good children and contributing members to society. The human dynamic knows no bounds. FYI, I didn't have my 1st until I had travelled the world, had a masters degree, found the right wife and was 38.User Detail :

I believe mightily in the value of the human dynamic and if a family can afford to raise their large group of children without putting a burden on society or infringing upon their neighbor's 'food supply', more power to them. Procreating and contributing to the betterment of society by producing responsible and contributing members is a noble effort and a worthy cause. You can demonstrate for the reduction of the world's population by doing the same sex marriage thingy...but it won't be recognized by mainstream America as much as one big happy family.User Detail :

Knights in medieval times were held to a code of behavior toward women that was as good as law. The code included acts as of tremendous bravery as well as simple acts of courtesy. Over the centuries, as times changed, so did the standards of etiquette expected of men while in the company of 'a lady.' Are the gender roles so confused that we just don't know who should go through a door first, or pay a dinner bill? I think it has even more to do with the implied message involved. As we approach the year 2005, women and men share responsibilities in and out of the home, making the playing field a little more level. There is nothing to be gained nowadays by opening a door for a woman, or assisting her out of a car. It's highly unlikely that such an act will lead to marriage, or even sex. When women demanded equal rights in the 1970's, they also asked men to stop all the fuss. Women are the ones that said they didn't want men to open doors for them because they were perfectly capable of opening doors for themselves. Women are the ones that said they wanted to split the restaurant bill, or even pay it in full. After all they had jobs and could manage quite well. It is women who wanted to put aside the behaviors that emphasized the differences between men and women because they wanted to stand on more equal ground. It became too confusing to figure out if opening a door was an insult or a courtesy. Is opening a door an implication that the male is dominant and the woman submissive? Women, now and forever want to feel like they are in control of their own lives....accept the action as politeness, if a woman opens the door for you.User Detail :

They must have another agenda...and you should just shrug them off. Music is the message and, being a 'guardian of the groove', knows no timetable. Music appreciation is taught in college, and between Ravel's Bolero and the Zeppelin's Dazed and Confused, there exists a nexus that supercedes generations. Good music endures the test of time and the appreciation of it is not the property of any one generation. Peace and Love. BTW, I saw the Zeppelin live at the 1st Atlanta pop festival...User Detail :

In fact, since I was brought up in humble surroundings, I will,if appropriate, make it a point to use/comment on 'common knowledge' understandings, colloquialisms or jargon of the 'street people', to relate to them. I always assume that people who are intelligent, respectful, witty, polite and posessing good manners have opinions that are of worth. I certainly allow them to maintain their sense of pride, by not condescending.User Detail :
