- A lot of times, perceiving threats are just that...perceptions. I've never been threatened by someone of any color being intelligent and educated, in fact it makes me happy and hopeful. I think if you surround yourself with others who are educated and intelligent you won't find people feeling threatened. For a long time, I thought I just wasn't liked, but now I realize that a lot of women feel threatened by me because I'm educated and young...and ready to move into a better position anywhere in life. A lot of people are threatened by people who have more than they do. Look at the people who feel threatened, and examine why they might feel that way, but please realize that not all of us do.

We encourage adopting biracial children, becasue they are the majority right now. However, we've found that to have a 'happy family,' parents that adopt biracial children should have friends and/or family member of each of the races that are in the childs make up. This has been very successful for many of our families.User Detail :

Staying out of debt while on disability or social security is almost impossible. Also, being overweight is NOT a disability, so he is not getting money through disability at work. More than likely he was injured and not given the right type of occupational therapy to return to his usual lifestyle. You don't list your age, so I'm assuming you're either quite young and don't know any better, or fairly old and don't know any better. So, I'll do my best to try and help here. How would you suggest this overweight person help himself? Going for a jog around the neighborhood? You're not seeming too welcoming to him, and your his neighbor. Also, there are some people just do not understand how to lose weight just as there are those who don't understand just how truthfully difficult it can be. It might do you good to examine a cop's lifestyle to see what exactly it entails, sometimes 'eatting healthy' and exercising aren't exactly attainable.User Detail :

Meds for Bipolar Disorder typically work much better than meds for Clinical/Major Depression. The side effects are much less as well. I've been able to live my life-go to school full time, work a full and part time job-while suffering through Major Depression. But I have also gone through months where I cannot leave my bed, or when able to leave bed can certainly not leave my apartment. I didn't file for social security, because I knew that wouldn't help me. I think you need to realize that there are varying degrees of Bipolar Disorder as well as Major/Clinical Depression. People with severe forms of either should not be forced to try and handle a job.User Detail :

I just decided to eat healthy and see what happened. By healthy, I don't mean that I've stopped eatting ho-ho's and soda. I NEVER ate that stuff. By healthy, I mean I no longer eat meat, I eat mostly organic foods and I try to eat the recommended fruits and veggies every day. I've lost 25 pounds in 35 days. So why do fat people get fat? How does it happen? I think that for the most part, fat people aren't as uptight as thin people are. Fat people are typically nicer and more casual and laid back. I don't think that there are any fat people who think they aren't fat. Anymore, thin people tend to think they're fat too. I think there's too much emphasis on what people weigh and how they look. Thankfully, my tall, blonde, thin (almost too thin) boyfriend disagrees with todays standard of thin equaling attractive, and heroin chic as the look to be attained.User Detail :

I tried to figure out once how I would have to hyphen my nationality/ethnicity, and ooooohhhhh my! Italian-Irish-Rusian-Native American. That's fun huh? I prefer to be called American and proud to be called so.User Detail :

I used to work for a department store and was horrified what I saw and heard parents do and say. On a daily basis I saw parents point toward the toy department and say 'go ahead and play, I'll come get you in awhile.' It's bad enough allowing/encouraging children to 'play' with things that aren't theirs, but to allow them to be alone in a store, in this day and age!? I don't get it. As for teenagers...I think part of it is looking 'cool' to their friends and anyone else who's around. If their parents did what I mentioned above, it may just be plain old ignorance.User Detail :

However, I've read in several places about women who do ejaculate. As for where it comes from, I think I read that it's mostly natural lubricant and other vaginal liquids.User Detail :

Sex shouldn't be an issue at those ages. If the question is mostly based on breast development, there are many women of all ages with small breasts. I think the problem would be if a 16 year old was attracted to a childish or child-like 16 year old. Or, as they reach a more mature age, are still attracted to 13 or 14 year olds. On a side note, as you are only 16, it might be a good time to meet someone as a friend and get to know them that way first. Body-type isn't the only thing that can cause attraction.User Detail :
