She says males are approximately 4 times more likely to commite suicide , than women . And she seems to feel sex is the only way for them to express their emotions , in many cases . And yet , women are given the responsibilities for sexual encounters . If she gets pregnant she's responsible . Is she gets raped , it's her fault . If she has sex too frequently with too many different men , she's demeaned as a whore . If she isn't interested in having sex , when he demands it , she's fridgid . It isn't intimacy they're looking for . They just want to get their rocks off , without the bother of maintaining a relationship .

One of mine was in the house around 5:00 A.M. , then chose to go for a walkabout . I didn't think much about it until late in the day . The next day , I was scared for her . I recalled the litter box thing , so set hers on the side porch where it wouldn't get rained on . It took another 24 hours , but she showed up , very bedraggled looking . I think someone had thrown some greasy water on her . I wrapped a towel around her and held her for a bit , then set out fresh food . She ate and continued to clean herself up .

JesseBoren comments on May 9, 2019:

Young people are always the ones pushing society to progress and the older generations try to stop them at all costs. This pushes us forward while bringing stability but the older generations have the advantage of controlling society in very real ways the young have little chance against. This is ...

There are many people with multiple talents and we should not disparage those with them.

Cast1es replies on May 9, 2019:

@Allena What do you mean by CV ? Generally speaking , people are shallow and go by looks . Perhaps if that isn't a person's best point , they need to put out their accomplishments , if they want a little consideration .

Thought this would be an interesting share, let me know your opinions on the article.

Fernapple comments on May 9, 2019:

It is well worth while looking up the history of Satan as well and how he first appears in the bible long after the supposed garden of Eden, as a loyal servant of god, (and as a lower case noun not a name,) helping god bring the plagues to Egypt for example. Then becomes gods drinking buddy helping ...

Mom will make sure they stay out of the really big trouble, and they do tend to stick together at that age. They need to learn how to use the litter box too. How old are they?

I concur with this assessment. When jebus said he would return within the lifetime of those living at the time, there were at most a few million people on the planet with most going to hell. Now there are 7+ billion people on the planet with most going to hell and jebus still has not returned.

Happy_Killbot comments on May 5, 2019:

math is useful when applied to useful problem solving. in this case, no practical problem is solved or even raised, because there are only 11.7 billion 1 dollar bills in the world. Why is it a problem that Jeff Bezos is richer than basically everyone, be it through luck or skill?
