The skirt but not the high heels so much… I’ve seen guys around wearing these workman kilts with all the pockets. Also these somewhat African looking sari type wraps. I love the look of a guy in a skirt with engineer boots or Doc Martens. You do see it in coastal cities in the States but there’s a strange swath of absurd “conservatism” that runs through the middle of the US. Most educated, enlightened people don’t flinch at the sight of a guy in a kilt. You do certainly see this in Scotland even to this day.

It’s a carry down from Chinese foot binding and all the same principals apply. Heels or bound feet force women to walk with their butts sticking out, it allegedly tightens the vaginal muscles and, most obviously, puts women in the position where they need to rely on a man. Within the litany of painful and dangerous things women do to appeal to mean, this is mild. As my friend says, “do guys have any idea how much work it takes to look ‘natural”?

It might affect women more than men but looking back I think being too cute probably made things more difficult for me at times. Socially speaking it’s somewhat the same in that when a man likes the way a woman looks he will rarely delve much deeper into her psyche to find out if he likes her personality. Men also expect that a pretty woman is a more passive, sexually available and less challenging partner. There are many advantages to outgrowing that hot phase.

Name : Dot, Gender : Female, Age : none, City : L.A., State : CA, Country : United States, Social class : Middle class,My area is full of young people whose parents risked life and limb to get to the US, work illegally and have children who are US citizens. Now that those anchor babies are teens and young adults they do nothing but bitch about this country. I would ask them the same question, “would you rather be living in Mexico?”. But to do so is considered racist. They don’t seem to acknowledge that many of Mexico’s problems are due to the corruption of the Mexican government and not every ill in the world was caused by the United States, the country that gave them their free education, standard of living, et al.

Her relationships would be much better if she COULD learn to suppress some of her overt emotion. So I think there’s a fine line between Vulcan and out of control that we all need to learn to walk. It’s also cultural. Some cultures accept hysteria as enthusiasm (wailing at funerals, uvulating at weddings, etc.) while others find it frightening and consider it mental illness to behave this way.

They know that to make those commitments will guarantee a life of financial struggle. Back in the days of job security, assured healthcare and pension, decent public schools, affordable college tuition one didn’t have to make such huge sacrifices in order to live a family life. My local paper just did a study that showed it costs 127K per year in our city for a family of four to live a “middle class” life. Granted this is an expensive city bit things are tight all over. No wonder the birthrate is falling dramatically amongst the educated classes.

How can they ignore the obvious? How many weekends in a row have the same Jehovah’s Witnesses ignored the mezzuzah on my front door in an attempt the “save” me? Religion makes people insane, period.

If the fetus is viable (past about 30 weeks) then one could make the argument that it could have survived minus the criminal act and pursue a prosecution. FYI, only in extreme cases are women allowed to abort a fetus that late in the game. So your argument isn’t really legally relevant. No one has ever been prosecuted for the death of a first trimester fetus, which is when most abortions take place. Later term abortions are almost always related to the health of the mother or the fetus, and only a heartless animal would suggest that those shouldn’t be available.

Informed African-Americans realize that it’s the legacy of Jim Crow, inequities in lending practices and the underfunding of inner city schools that have created such mass poverty (and done do intentionally). Perhaps you need some smarter black friends.

I agree it’s disrespectful. It’s rude for anyone of any faith to try to shove their belief system down anyone else’s throat. The better question might be why can’t people of all faiths respect that atheists are making their own choices and if hell awaits, so be it?

When the people caring for your loved one earn less than a fry cook at McDonald’s what motivation do they have to behave professionally? Further more most of them have no real training. There likely ARE some very good nursing homes around but the image is based on the norm, filthy places staffed by high school drop outs with borderline sociopathic personalities.

Why would they single age out as a deterrent to driving when knowledge of the rules, basic English, moderate anger management control and simple baseline intelligence are not taken into consideration?

Our mayor happens to be very gang friendly, but barring that… Society is getting more violent. Police departments are more cash strapped and understaffed and political correctness run amok has made it nearly impossible for cops to actually arrest gang members without fear of criticism by activists. The elderly are perhaps more worried since they are seen as easy targets and because they remember a time when the streets weren’t controlled by thugs.

But, habits die hard and folks still think that our lifestyle (big cars, cheap gas, mass consumerism and unilateral intervention internationally) is a birth right for beating the Axis powers. PS, Bush destroyed our stock portfolios as well (with a lot of help from Reagan).
