Have you ever heard of the “crabs in a bucket” mentality? Legend has it, if you put several crabs in a bucket, not one of them will manage to climb out of it because they will be pulled down by the other crabs trying to escape. The crabs in a bucket mentality is a metaphor for a situation in which poor people pull down other poor people and expect them to live through the same amount of poverty and hardship they did.. just because. It’s jealousy.

A mother of 8 is not giving a very good name to the honorable, not as respected as it used to be role of being a mother. Our society is really lacking an appreciation of family, and families formerly consisted of a lot of kids back in the day, but not anymore. The infertility rate of young people across the world is falling dramatically, and in the US not enough people are having kids to even replace the dying population, but people still have hate to vent on mothers who get money from the taxpayers.

So the story of a woman from England named Marie Buchan is irritating the people who fall for the crabs in a bucket mentality. She said something dumb however, and it made viral headlines. She said she was “too pretty” to work.

While some people might cringe at what she is saying, she isn’t some lazy woman who has never tried to work a job. For a certain period of time, she worked part-time as a personal support worker. In several interviews on television (not a good idea if you don’t want to be ridiculed for being a mother), she said she hated this job. People found her attitude unsettling and jealous people “resented the fact that she only worked 16 hours per week in order to be able to continue collecting welfare benefits,” according to Boredom Therapy.

I was just brushing my teeth when I saw myself looking good for once which made me happy. It doesn't happen often but when it does my Ego grows about 3 sizes too big for people to stand it. Just wondering how you feel when you see yourself in the mirror most days?

I can't believe how common I see this being asked. From what I see, most white girls DO NOT like black guys. But most black guys are dating white girls but because the way the populations are (by race) it means most white girls do not date black guys. I'd say about <5% of white girls (in relationships) are with black guys... BUT I'd say around 70% of black guys in relationships are with white girls. Does that make sense? But that's just where I live. In my country there are very few black people and blacks don't really hang around with whites all that much. There isn't a lot of black guys for white girls to choose from.

In America, where there are much more black people, where people are much more liberal, aren't racist and most of all are integrated. Is it the same there? Like white girls have much more black guys to choose from, and they aren't racist. And America is more diverse. Like in my country every neighborhood is like 99% white. But in America only like 50% would be white. So white girls there are much more open about IR dating and they also are surrounded by lots of black guys. Like aren't groups of friends over there like all mixed? Here, most groups of friends are all white. Over there, wouldn't a group of 10 friends, have like at least 2 be black, and 2 be asian? Like Americans aren't segregated right? So white girls in the US are much more likely to date black guys?

Hence why I ask the question. In America, do most white girls like/date black guys?

Disclaimer: I am not trolling, it's a legitimate question. Secondly I am not even white (I am Latino) so I amen't asking this from a sad white guy perspective. I am just asking a general question. So please just answer. If you're from the US (especially a city) please share your opinion as I feel you live in the society which white girls are most probable to date black guys. So I'd love to hear what if it's different to where I live. And lastly, no I am not racist, nor do I think IR dating is wrong.

I've noticed that even after thoroughly washing my butt crack it always has some sort of smell. If I were to skim my finger down my butt crack and smell it, it would have some sort of funky scent.

It makes me self-conscious to wear G-Strings/Thongs

"Even though the majority of women identify as straight, research clearly demonstrates that when it comes to what turns them on, they are either bisexual or gay, but rarely straight."

~ Dr. Gerulf Rieger, lead researcher

“If you’re a man, whatever you tell me you’re attracted to I bet in the laboratory your penis will verify that. If a woman has the same conversation with me and tells me she is straight, even if she believes that, in the laboratory her body will contradict her. Even though the majority of women identify as straight, they are, in their physiological sexual responses (genital arousal or pupil dilation to images of attractive men and women) either bisexual or gay, but rarely straight."

The title says it all.

If I need to state the obvious, people don't HAVE to be the exact same age as the pictures I put in there. The difference doesn't have to be as drastic. For all I know, you could be 40 and once in a while hang out with 20 year olds, and other times hang out with 60 year olds, and you're still just as capable of judging on this topic. I just wanted to show a clear age difference between the three groups.

I assume most people here on G@G are around their late teenage or young adult years, so that's why I put a photo of a young man. But who says you can't be the same age as that old lady? Perhaps you're in your 80s, and people "older than you" are people in their 100s. You could also be the same age as the little girl... but I really don't think anyone that young should be on G@G, lol. At least 14 I could understand, but not an 8 year old girl.

Now for my personal opinion on this topic... you can stop reading here if it doesn't interest you. I'm 22 years old. My idea of people my age is people in their extreme late teens and people in their young adult years... let's say up to 28.

People younger than me could be children, or people in their earlier teen years, like 13 or 14.

People older than me could be anyone about 35 years old and above.

For children, they are cute and funny, but I can't really have a genuine relationship with anyone that much younger than me.

For young teens... I don't really like them, as they tend to be awkward perverts going through puberty.

For people around my age... I get along with them the most, really. They may have stupid trends every once in a while, but our beliefs are more aligned than any age group.

And for people older than me... I appreciate their wisdom, but they also tend to have old fashioned beliefs they're unwilling to change, or they think they're automatically smarter than me just because they're older. Hint hint, my parents, or any older relative in general, lol.
