Search Results: she's into me now

Lol my thoughts on this subject and I realize that they differ from y'alls probably extremely so please don't just go attacking me as some heartless person I am more than likely one of the nicest people you'd meet give the shirt off my back to others, help strangers share all my sh*t etc lol so on to my opinion. I don't think it was so awful, here is my rational I'll break it down into three categories

1.) One of the common reasons I hear that it is so bad was because it was racist. While this is true later on this was not originally the case, at first many people went into indentured servitude to pay off debt (white people) and also several would volunteer pertty much under the fief system (not sure if that is the correct term but they'd work for the landlord in return for the landlords protection from others.) Later it became more efficent monetarily to purchase or take Indian (native American) workers but they died off in hordes some due to disease some to overworking and some to suicide. Then the African slave trade came along and was best because they could and would work.

2.) they say the working conditions were horrendous. While this may be true compared to modern standards we are talking about a different time, and these slaves from africa were more than likely moving away from major political unrest (wars between villages etc.) The work was outdoors in the heat because that was what the economy was based off of. It was hard labour and before labour laws were in place so if this is your argument it would be more about labor laws, not really about slavery in and of itself. Look at how we treated our own children during industrial revolution

3.) Lastly, I here it is wrong to force people to work without pay. But were they really working without pay? The slaves were provided with food, shelter, and clothing, some people who are wokring now do not even receive enough money for these neccessities. Also protection was offered (not from slave masters themselves obviously, but from renegade tribes or random killers, look at the crime rates in low income areas today, murder, theft and the like are rampant many of these crimes they did not have to worry about as slaves.)

Lastly (yes I know I said 3) after emancipation proclomation and civil war many slaves returned to their slave masters for work, I would also put forward the idea that we are all slaves, slaves to money we have to work at the proffered wage or die still so I also don't really think slavery is gone, just taken from individuals and given to our government.

Anyway I'm not suggesting it be brought back just looking for some intellectual feedback so it would be prefferred if you do indeed think it was bad or awful if you could give specefic reasons or rebuttals to my statements XP looking forward to it!

Do you believe men have become much more feminine and soft compared to previous generations? You hear women complaining all the time how there aren't any real men anywhere.

They have done studies on mental health of different cultures around the world, and the HEALTHIEST ones are small tribes where *shocker* men have ritualistic fighting and do things like hunt wild animals to grow up.

And then you look at our culture, where ANY kid fighting in school results in punishment and suspension/expulsion(because the teachers are 98% female and women believe any violence is the devil). You have women raising boys without a father figure and then the statistics *shocker* show that these men have the most problems in life. Is it any wonder that men have become emasculated wimps? The rugged tough guy, is usually the guy that got out of jail, and also happens to get laid more than 95% of the rest of guys out there because he has this alien thing *confidence* which he developed by breaking rules and taking risks, telling people exactly what he thinks instead of sugarcoating sh*t like everyone else does (the reason nice guys /girls fail) and not being insecure about every opinion/decision he makes.

Now its more important to "be nice" than to be honest, we have stupid bullsh*t telling everyone that "everyone's a winner" etc etc to inflate peoples egos into narcissism by "protecting their feelings", but what were actually doing is taking the easy route of lying to them instead of telling them the truth. The psychologists seemed to forget the common sense that competence is what creates confidence, not vice-versa. link

Do you think our culture turns men into softies?
