    While some people can carry off long hair for life, most women cannot. Faces grow thinner, so does hair… Gray hair is frizzy and difficult to manage. Hair color, for covering said gray, damages the hair so it doesn’t grow out long and nice. Whilst the same style for all is not a good thing, having thinning, ratty, frizzy hair that’s gray at the roots and overly dyed at the ends isn’t either. Finding a style and color that works as they get older is something most women don’t put enough thought into. I also think that as you age you tend to care a little less about looking cute. Seriously, once you’re a grandma are you going to want to put the extra effort into keeping long hair (which is a major hassle for some people)? And PS, I know older black and Latino women who feel the s

    It’s kids that change the relationship, whether you’re married or not. The certificate doesn’t do anything unless you’re marrying a foreign national whose immigration status would then change. Still, until you have a kid it’s just like living together.

    David, you live in L.A. Have you not noticed that half the accidents on the road are Latino males, usually driving something that wouldn’t pass a DMV inspection? You must do all your driving west of the 405.

    They’re asserting their native cultural identity to let you know that English-speaking Americans are dwindling in numbers. I can handle it in the outside world. I have relatives who do this to me in my own house. THAT is rude.

    I live in one of the worst school districts in the country. The parents here claim that they’re too busy working to properly care for their children’s educations. That doesn’t even take into consideration the huge number of absentee fathers in some poor communities. Until people learn to practice hands-on parenting, which includes not having more kids than you can manage, we will have inner city schools filled with apathetic and disruptive kids. It’s so unfair to those poorer kids who really do want an education and really do have the potential to do well.

    Someone with Judeo-Christian beliefs might say because He also gave us free will to sin or be righteous. Given that religion is a man-made construct, I would say that this is simply one of the many inconsistencies. This is why it’s difficult for rational people to believe in god, hell or heaven for that matter.

    Unless you’re talking about the elderly (who may have trouble bathing), it’s likely that whites use more hair and body care products than other races. Partly due to more disposable income and partly because they are targeted by advertisers… I bet an average person has about five different products on him/her on a given day. That could smell funny. Right now I smell like shampoo, hair gel, face cream, body lotion, deodorant, toothpaste and laundry detergent, and I haven’t even put any make up on yet.

    First off, “Oriental” is about as offensive as “colored” when it’s used to describe people. Secondly, if you choose to hang with bimbos, you’re going to get blather about shoes and celebrities. Go to a Mensa meeting, join a book club or sign into a chat room about politics… I’ve heard this complaint from so many guys only to find that they’re talking about women who LOOK like teenage mall rats. Of course very young, very cute girls talk nonsense. Very young, very cute boys do the same. Mature women with educations and careers don’t talk like this. It’s just that too many guys like David want either little girls or subservient housewife types.

    I live in a place where the mere mention of the millions of illegal immigrants that bankrupted the city is considered “racist”. Most rational people wouldn’t consider that true racism but it doesn’t stop activists from using the word. Is it racist for certain groups to insist that their children marry people of the same religion or cultural background? I would say probably. Some would say not. The word “racism” is tossed around with far too much ease these days. As I have said to a black friend, “ask your grandparents about real racism”. It isn’t just some idiot looking funny at you while you have the full rights of any citizen. No American under the age of 40 has likely ever experience the authentic, institutionalized racism that used to exist here. The problem now is a matter o

    A guy that values chastity, and might likely be a virgin himself, will be thrilled to have a virgin. A guy who is looking for a more experienced girl probably wouldn’t be dating a virgin anyway. So, save yourself and choose wisely. There are all kinds of “normal” guys. They’re not all dogs. Having said that, beware of the older non-virgin man who demands virginity in his bride. This is a red flag of a controlling personality type that doesn’t value women as equals.
