... that is the trippiest thing i have ever seen. it never even occured to me that a BILL would be magnetic. i was referring to the coins.

how do you figure? im sure with a powerful enough magnet you could move any metal, but american money doesnt have enough magnatism for any magnet you and i can get.

american money isnt magnetic : (

i wasnt referring to her intelligence, i was referring to the fact that you mentioned that she used to focus looks and when she reprioritized she started focusing on money. at no point do you mention her caring about the level of connection with the man in question or any other attributes besides appearance and money.

lol. im not sure if your making a comment about men being shallow or if your just totally joking and understand that attraction is necessary in a relationship. as best i can tell, realizing i had no friends. i also got put in a private school with a much smaller group (i knew all 125 students, first name and last) i think that may have had something to do with it. i think it was more because of the friends thing. i realized no one liked me. its really an even more complete turn around than i mentioned before. there is a certain level of confidence required to tell people to shut up and hitting them and all that. now im extremely shy, in pretty much every aspect of interaction. talking to people, physical contact, eye contact, all of it makes me really nervous unless i have a long time to get comfortable with someone. its like im afraid im gonna do something, like hurt them physcally or emotionally or just insult them and end up with the same "no friends" problem i had in the past. that and my parents arent the type to put up with that kind of thing. they see commercials for that "nanny 911" show or what ever and laugh because the obvious solution when your six year old tells you to shut up is to give him a spanking and send him to his room for the rest of the night. not cry in a corner and tell a talkshow host you cant control your kids.

hahaha. it makes me feel so much better to be compared to a pitbull given that you like dogs. as for breeding... i doubt it. its hard enough to put together a successful family without dismissing a potential partner because of genetics. i think there would be very few successful relationships if you had to find someone with complimentary genes. (violence in children can be treated. i was extremely violent as a child. i was thrown out of several preschools for hitting teachers and other students and throwing chairs. now i dont even have much of a defensive reflex. this guy punched me in the face sophomore year and hitting him back didnt even enter my mind)

my point is that he probably wasnt approving of sexism in the negative way you were interpretting it. he probably meant sexism more by the definition suggested by my quotes. that is, accepting the fact that there are in fact differences and that because of them people SHOULD be treated differently just for improved efficiency, not that women should be looked down upon. ah... i meant relative to previous circumstances. wouldnt surprise me. you seemed to be very directly comparing men to dogs. i would be shocked if its actually that frequent. that would mean that there are more than 50 girls in my highschool being sexually assaulted by their fathers. if it is accurate i would say a very complex set of circumstances is surrounding each individual case. no doubt. but evolution is on the scale of millions of years, or at best tens of thousands, not centuries or decades. while the need may no longer be there the instincts and tendencies still are. men and women handle situations differently; that will eventually go away, but in the mean time i dont see any reason not to expect it and adjust to it. it will still gradually go away for lack of need.

O.O im gonna have to assume you havent fully thought through the implications of that... the eyes bother me... seems we would do much better with at least one, if not a full second set, around the back side. also, this whole walking thing. wings would really make my day.

thats the magnet you find inside a harddrive. they are infact attached, not just holding on. they are very powerful, but not powerful enough that you cant slide them around on that metal. methods i have used come down to brute force and leverage. if you use a screwdriver and use a part of the metal that sticks up as a fulcrum you can pry some of them off. there are some i never managed to get though. (they have to be attached because in side the harddrive there are two of them facing each other with opposite ends next to each other, so they have to be attached with something stronger than the combined forces of the magnets)

sexism: Discrimination based on gender, especially discrimination against women. discriminate: To make distinctions on the basis of class or category without regard to individual merit; when discussing women as a whole "discrimination" seems perfectly reasonable to me. which is why we started using clubs and living in tribes. your just being argumentative right? i dont need to go into every detail do i? then you havent looked or you dont understand the meaning of "relative". i said they were general catagories that not everyone fits into. in general womens brains are better at multitasking than mens. thats just being rude. its not that "some men are prone to violence" its that evolution has required that to be our solution to confrontations. the majority of men are very good about maintaining civility to work within the modern society, but the instinct is still there. once again... certain individuals fall outside of the mold. not generally. sex within families results in mutations. evolution swings away from such things. thats not going back to pedophilia, thats going to incest. while were talking about sexism... and yet again, individuals fall outside the mold. guns werent around during the first few million years of evolution. your right, not any more. just during the first few million years of evolution...

both sexes have competed, but seperately. the men never compete against the women. the reason is because the average and top scores are on a totally different level. (hes right, by the way, men are more likely to punch someone in the face. women seem to prefer to slander the person behind their back or emotionally scar them)

coral, are you saying you really dont think men and women are different? look back to the part of this discussion where we had to explain why such a young girl would be attractive. men are the protectors, our bodies are designed for fighting. we have more upper body strength, bruise less easily, and are pumped full of testosterone so when the mountain lions attack we can defend the women and the little people. the effects of millions of years of evolution dont go away with a few decades of relative equality in society. as a result, men tend more towards violence than women, we are better suited to different jobs. for example, women are better suited for multitasking than men are. women are the nurturers. your bodies are focused around your centers because your most important role is protecting a child from any and all harm for 9 months. these roles can be seen in more than just our physical differences. a woman can only make one child every nine months. a man can take part in the creation of thousands in that same time. as a result, a man could be married to someone he sees as the most beautiful, smartest, most loving woman in the world. the relationship can be absolutely perfect in everyway imaginable, but after they have sex he will still get the urge to have sex with the womans sister, best friend, and any other females he comes into contact with. in modern society the good loyal men are merely resisting their urges. since a woman can only have one child a year she is looking for someone to settle with. she wants someone who will stick around and fight off the cougars while shes incapacitated by having a child. obviously not all people fit into these catagories; there are exceptions to every rule, but this is the general theme. its evolutionary necessity. sexism is fact, not in that one sex is better than the other, just that we are definately different.

no, i am pro choice. the previous posts merely establish that killing is wrong. it is also wrong to force a woman to bear a child she does not want. i believe, before a certain point of developement, the fetus is nothing but a blob of cells, no higher on the chain than the chicken we kill to eat. at that point it is ok for the mother to kill it. its not that i want the chicken to die, its not that i want the fetus to die, its the that rights of the other parties involved in the situation are more important. however, after that point, the fetus becomes a human with the same rights as the rest of us. i believe it is wrong to abort a baby in the third trimester because at that point i believe it has rights and the mother had 6 months to get it done. now its too late and she needs to just deal with it.

uh... that may be a nice compliment, but no. while she may be attractive there is not a chance that boys her age would leave her alone because of it. having no chance doesnt stop guys from trying. dressing conservatively, as she mentioned, might get her a little more quite time. being attractive wont.
