If you don't want one I don't see why you need one, but I quite liked havign a symbol of commitment in my relationship sicne our engagement was spent in two different nations seeing far too little of each-other. Sometimes a silly, sappy gesture is what one needs (I also sent my now-husband flowers with my first…

My husband and I both liked having engagement rings, especially since we spent the majority of our engagement in different countries. It was a wonderful visuial reminder of our promise to each-other. It was also a $20 titanium band, so the jewelers probably won't be too pleased with our choice of ring - or the still…

You do have an understandable point, but undortunatly the answer is we SHOULD. Because they validate those who think this way and lend them a certain air of acceptance. They need to be challenged everywhere.

IT's amazing what you can think of as normal when none step in.

Same when I went to school in London over a decade ago, Monkeyvirus.

That's nice but the hair removal coems with all kinds of other issues *AND* increases the chances of catching something else. Hair is there for a reason. Prevents friction and limits the bacteria that can reach one's intimate areas, among other things.

The results were twofold; I only ever tried while I could get praise, and when I failed *anything* intillectual, I was devistated - to the point I had a breakdown in college following a number of failures - and I was a B student. It seriously matters *not* to do this,…

When I was 17 a man and a woman loudly arguedon the street outside my mother's house. *Everyone* called the cops. Then the woman had a little girl and the man grabbed her. I was one of about 12c people who was out of the door at tht moment. The cops took *20 minutes* to arrive. The guy was huge. The street was full of…

Your situation is why we can't let police walk away - or fall silent when we have suspicions. Everyone is responsible for acting on what we see. Yes, it means innocent people will be bothered by the police, but talking for a while to *both* parties is better than letting this happen - and *maybe*people in your…

My goodness you think a lot of people are bad people, as opposed to just, say, foolish, or perhaps misguided? Everyone who shops at wal-mart and buys nike are bad people?

Except, amusingly, sex doesn't make a product memorable. people remember the ad but NOT the product as well as non-sexual advertising. Weird, isn't it? At least, according to an article I actually managed to find again affter reading it a while ago...…
