Questions: Society & Politics

It's just a bunch of guys whining about women...

let's say you have a girlfriend, boyfriend and they're attractive and really nice to you. One day they get into an accident and break both their legs. Your partner tries their very best not to cry in front of you. But they eventually do and now they're stuck in diapers until they can walk again. Would you help them to the toilet or change their diaper if they need it?

I just think it's so petty when you click on a pic of a white girl with braids or a non-native American dressed in tribal clothes, or a white girl with a bindi and everyone on the comments is throwing out abuse at her/him.

I personally think cultures should be shared and everyone should get to experience and connect with other cultures and I believe it would help to fight racism if everyone learned about each others cultures and shared them.

And also culture has nothing to do with race it's to do with upbringing and traditions... like a white girl could be adopted into an African family where they all braided hair etc so that would be part of HER cultures as it's what she's always known. Get me?

for example I'm mixed race (black n white) and I only know white folks never met an African person yet I can "get away" with wearing braids.. but it's actually not my culture I just think it looks good.

there's so so so many different cultures and traditions that link to ancestors, religion, beliefs etc and even if you weren't brought up that way I feel you can still explore it and try new things out like... ur only here once on this earth and bindis are so interesting and I love the reasoning behind them which I researched into and if I want to wear a bindi... guess wat? I'm gunna wear a bindi because I love the concept. In fact Asian cultures is one of my favourites so if I want to involve myself in it I will !!

And if your a white gal reading this and u think corn rows are cute as hell go get them !!! Who can stop you? It's hair.
As long as u respect and learn about cultures different from your own what's the big dealio? And those who are born into cultures and people tell you that your ghetto for braids or make fun of your bindi tell them to suck your ass !! Those are the boring racist people with small minds who need to be taught about culture :)

Rant over, opinions?

Okay folks, digsusting question time.

Was listening to the radio this morning when they started talking about research done in Canada about peeing in pools. Researchers conducted a study by measuring artificial sweeteners in swimming pools and found that an olympic size swimming pool likely contains about 60 gallons of urine. Seems that artificial sweeteners dont get broken down by the body and are expelled through urine.

Was just getting ready to go on a road trip and was planning on hitting the pool at least once... i'll not be taking my swim suit now. I can barely swim honestly, by i do like to go every now and then, i'll probably never set foot in a swimming pool again. Im a little surprised that this seems so prevalent of a habit.

And as an fyi... they found that hot tubs contain concentrations of urine to be 3X higher than in swimming pools. There were a few of the radio show hosts that admitted to doing this regularly.

So my brother had his friends over and they were talking about the girls that rejected them.
It seemed like they really enjoyed the fact that especially the "stuck up", popular and/or really attractive ones gained weight. Smug satisfaction.
Literally, they'd be like "Remember _____, when you asked her out? Guess what, she's fat af now." And they'd all laugh and be like "ha! Serves her right for being conceited".
Or another one was having multiple babydaddies, or being a single mother. However, there seemed to be a consensus that a single mother is more dateable than a large woman. That sounds so degrading to say, but it's their standards and how they feel.

Also, if you've ever disagreedwith someone online, if you're female, you've probably been called "fat" as a generic insult. I know I have, especially when I don't have my pic up, people throw that "oh you must be a bitter fat chick" line. I'm bitter lol but not fat.

So my question is, why is being "fat" such an insult for women?
And I guess poll question, would you rather date a big woman or single mother?

I think that children really only need a mother and that fathers aren't really necessary. I think they actually do more harm than good.

All 4 are black African with no admixture.

People may not know this, but since Africa has the most genetic variation in the world Africans can naturally look like anything. Wide nose, small nose, black hair, red hair, blonde hair, green eyes, blue eyes, etc... and yes they're all black.



These aren't black women with white features either. Seeing as black people came first it's actually white people who have black features. Again pure black Africans have the most genetic variation so they can look like anything.

Take your pick... explain your choice in the comments.
