Should most social programs be put into one thing and have physical locations?

This might be my greatest sober idea. What if you combined a bunch of the social programs aimed at homeless or otherwise downtrodden but able bodied and put buildings up around the country. They would have classes and...

I'll never thank getting hit with a belt but don't mind at all the pain from my C-section, isn't this unique?

When will I ever thank my father for using a belt on me as a little kid? NEVER. I'm not the type to glorify physical punishment at all. I've developed a deep hatred for that practice. I view that as battery with a weapon....

How is getting hit teaching manners?

It's mainly the older generation that seem to praise their parents for doing that and even glorify it. They seem so proud of getting hit. It doesn't address what specific manners, nor reaches you to thank you when someone...

Ladies, do you think that a Man is a pansy for not being willing to fist fight over a verbal insult directed at you while still on a first date basis?

I'll be honest when it's still in the dates 1-3 ballpark I honestly don't know if a woman is worth my possible jail time so my own personal defense mechanism would be to insult the instigator back and refrain from getting...

My dudes, what do you want from women besides playing pelvic pinochle? Ladies, you may comment but check your whataboutisms at the door?

MY list is as follows: 1. To be appreciated for what we contribute to your life and our family's lives. When we build or fix something, thank us. Don't just assume it's what we are supposed to do, therefore we don't need...

My Ex-wife ended up ending our relationship by committing suicide on my 23rd birthday. Still can't "get over" it as a much older Man. Any Suggestions?

I was three US states away at the time at the time the body was discovered so there was no legal suspicion of foul doing on my part. We had dated all throughout highschool and I had married my high school sweetheart four...

Once violence has been introduced in a marriage or a LTR (even once), the line has been crossed and no turning back?

Personally I think that's how it should be. There was domestic violence during my parents' marriage and I was sadly a witnessed to their fiasco. My mother would get verbal and my father (someone with anger issues too)...

Why do I pull away when I actually like a girl, even though I want to connect with her? How can I stop this pattern?

This keeps happening to me, it is a pattern. I don’t play games or flirt, I’ve never needed to. The girls I’ve been with in the past usually made the first move, and things just flowed naturally. But when I really like...

Should authoritative parenting be the right name instead of gentle parenting?

Ever since having my baby boy, I've been more focused on my further parenting approaches and skills I'll need to apply for him. My strategy will be parenting without spanking or spoiling. I view physical punishment and...

Is it reasonable for my aunt to ask me to come over and do things for her when she said she could live by herself?

My aunt has some walking issues but did physical therapy and is doing pretty good now, but still has some trouble. She also drinks a lot. I moved out back to my moms for that very reason, and now my aunt is paying me rent...

Why do people justify beating up others for just words or racial insults?

I know it must be upsetting when someone is verbally antagonistic or hurls a racial insults but why is getting violent with them justified? Ideally hitting someone should only be applied in actually self-defense, not...

Is the US slowly turning into an Islamic country?

I remember back in my day, female cops could frisk men and vice versa. Male and female patients could share hospital rooms. Doctors could treat opposite sex patients. Now days, I was watching "Cops", and male officers had...

Am I making a huge mistake with him?

I met this boy the first week of school. He’s tall, tan, a tennis player, charming, polite, and has the most beautiful accent. It was impossible not to like him instantly. We met in the dorm hallway, talked, exchanged...

What would a ''spare the rod, spoil the kid'' believer do if even that doesn't work?

Both my husband and I will raise our baby boy differently without hitting him. However, I don't further argue with other people's beliefs on how to raise kids. Though I would like to know what would someone that believes...
