What do you think are the main differences between men and women in everyday modern life

Wednesday, August 13th, 2008


id like evolutionary reasons, and how these reasons affect modern life

 

i think even in modern day life the majority of people still show stereotypical behaviours of their sex. For instance women are still more likely to being the “domestic manager” in the house and the primary care giver to children. Women are far more likely to go into caring, creative or people orientated roles. However there has been a rise in the feminine creative qualities being used in more traditionally masculine roles for example management, which used to be highly male dominated due to strategic qualities.

Women and men are very different physically both externally and internally and these create very different hormones which account for these differences in behaviour to some extent. The greatest example here is the different sexes approach to sex as the hormones released before, after and during intercourse have very different impacts on how the person views the situation and the partner. Evolutionary wise this could be explained in terms of the mother wanting to connect with the father for him to provide food and protection to herself and the unborn child, whereas the father has spread his seed and wants to ensure a healthy progression of his gene by going elsewhere.

Also these physical differences will always affect modern day life as men will always be built to be stronger than women, and therefore women will always find these features attractive in the opposite sex. Similarily men will always look for a healthy body for childbearing in women and will always love nice boobs, bum and hips! But these physical differences will also mean that men and women will always (in the majority of cases) go towards their natural evolutionary roles even with the rising equality for women in the western world.

Last but not least (and im sorry if Ive waffled) women will always learn behaviour from their mothers and peers and men from their fathers and peers so will act in a way that is socially acceptable and be encouraged to show stereotypical roles that are favoured!

Can a misogynist be married?

Friday, August 1st, 2008


How is it possible for a man to hate women but be in a relationship or want a relationship with a woman?

 

Remember that in the New World Order misogyny has nothing to do with hatred for or abuse of women. All one has to do is expect to be respected as a man. Any christian man who leads his household and has a wife who respects him and children who obey him is sure to draw the label misogynist. He need not abuse his wife or cheat on her for her to decide at any time to terminate the marriage. Any attempts to prevent this will lead to a restraining order and possible jail time, with virtually no recourse to gain custody of his children. These are the “deeper truths” by which we now live.

——–

Most misogynists are serial marryers. They see women as objects to be used to wait on them and do their bidding. These marriages end in Divorce. The misogynists can always be charming if it serves his interests.

Being married or heterosexual doesn’t prove a man is not a woman-hater or a woman is not a man-hater.

Question about blacks and racism….?

Friday, July 25th, 2008


im wondering why do african americans use the n word towards eachother n its no big deal but as soon as a white person uses it they throw a big ol fit kind of double standards dont u think?

 

No I don’t think that “That particular” situation is a double standard. But, I do think that we live in a double standard society “remember Katrinia”? That would never have happen in Beverly HIlls (enough said about that). Lets be honest, white people have not earned the right and never had any right to call a group of people who helped build this country ignorant, sub-humane, etc. (they used the word n*$$*r) to sum up all these thoughts and feelings. Because that word was used to kill, lynch and burn innocent people it will NEVER be a word white people can use. Our grand’s messed that up. Case closed.

Why teenagers use drug or smoking alot these days?

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008


what are the reasones and causes for such a social problem?what are the consenquese?

 

I think they get a lot pressure from their family and they can’ t handle it, so they find drugs or smoking as the only solution. Others do it because they want to become “revolutionists” against their family’s ideas.
The effect of this acting in their health is very serious, but in their psychological situation, too!

——–

Drugs now, are no different than the younger people, who are now our parents and grandparents, drinking alcohol in the prohibition days. People want an escape from the reality of day to day to living. Unless you have experienced the “experience” of the feeling of what a drug, a certain food or a drink of alcohol can do to/for you, you cannot relate to this entity. Some may see it as a problem, and it is only a problem, if anything, any habit is taken to extremes. Eating, drinking, overdoing it in exercising, any activity all people do in life. Not all teenagers do drugs, drink alcohol, excess living in general, and it is unfair to them to accuse and generalize the whole of being a teenager, that all of them have a problem. From your spelling, it sounds to me like you are a teenager, probably Aquarius, because Aquarians (generalizing) are so superior and look down on others as you are doing here,) and down the road apiece, you will probably marry the wrong guy, and turn to a bad habit, to escape this bad decision. In the twenties, and thirties, it was smoking, and it will always be something, because we are all here on this Earth, for the “experience of it all” and that is just what we are all doing: experiencing life.

What is human wants?

Wednesday, July 9th, 2008


Human need is something that is neccessary for survival eg usually classified in economics as basic living materials like food.

Human want is everything else that we could do without. eg two tickets to see Man.Utd

——–

Human wants are things that humans want, whether it be for a rational or irrational reason.

For example, I would love to have a Ferrari, but some would consider this irrational since my Ford Focus would still let me drive to the supermarket and back.

 

Economics/Math question ???

Wednesday, June 25th, 2008


Suppose that the Tax function for an economy is 0.2Y (there are no fixed taxes or transfers). What is the Consumption function if C was 900 when Y (GDP) was 1400 and C was 975 when Y was 1550?

C=Ca+MPC*Yd
Y - GDP
Yd - disposable income
Yd=Y-T
T=0.2Y
Tax = 0.2 = 20%
Yd=Y-0.2Y=0.8Y
Ca - autonomouse consumption
MPC - marginal propencity to consume/spend

C=Ca+MPC*0.8Y

Y=1400 C=900
Y=1550 C=975

900=Ca+MPC*0.8*1400
975=Ca+MPC*0.8*1550

900=Ca+MPC*1120
975=Ca+MPC*1240

Ca=900-MPC*1120
975=900-MPC*1120+MPC*1240
120*MPC=75
MPC=0.625
Ca=900-0.625*1120 = 900-700 =200

C=200+0.625*Yd
C=200+0.625*(0.8Y)
C=200+0.5*Y

Answ: C=200+0.5*Y

How can the US recover from the economic slowdown?

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

What should be done to fix the economic problems that are occurring in the American economy today? What should the government do (or not do) to deal with the slowdown?

 

Change the Feds policy’s of easy money, decrease the trade deficit, increase interest rates so foreigners put their money in America, also America needs to start making products that the world wants like new technology.

——

The economy will pickup on it’s own. Any more government fiddling and they will screw it up all the more.

—–

kick starting the economy is really very simple. protect the value of the currency by providing a stable long term value. eliminate taxes on capital creation ie the capital gains tax. lower tax rates across the board 30%. these simple steps would create a miracle comeback in the US economy or any other economy for that matter.

Which is the most derisable job in the world?

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

Something that pays GREAT for doing what you love. Its rare, most people now want to just be paid for sitting on their *** and do nothing. I would love to work in human resources where you dont have to kiss customers butts when they suck but people suck up to you to get a job.

Economist!!!! Definitely :)

Economist is the most derisable job in the world

An economist is an expert in the social science of economics. The individual may also study, develop, and apply theories and concepts from economics and write about economic policy. Within this field there are many sub-fields, ranging from the broad philosophical theories to the focused study of minutiae within specific markets, macroeconomic analysis, microeconomic analysis or financial analysis, involving analytical methods and tools such as econometrics, statistics, economics computational models, financial economics, financial mathematics and mathematical economics.

The professionalization of economics, reflected in academia, has been described as “the main change in economics since around 1900.” Most major universities have an economics faculty, school or department, where academic degrees are awarded in economics. However, many prominent economists come from a background in mathematics, engineering, business, law, sociology, or history.

The Nobel Memorial Prize in Economics, established by Sveriges Riksbank in 1968, is a prize awarded to economists each year for outstanding intellectual contributions in the field of economics. The prize winners are announced in October every year. They receive their awards (a prize amount, a gold medal and a diploma) on December 10, the anniversary of Alfred Nobel’s death.

Economists work in many fields including academia, government and in the private sector, where they may also “…study data and statistics in order to spot trends in economic activity, economic confidence levels, and consumer attitudes. They assess this information using advanced methods in statistical analysis, mathematics, computer programming [and] they make recommendations about ways to improve the efficiency of a system or take advantage of trends as they begin.”

It is more difficult to define the professional category of “economists” than to define regulated professions such as engineering, law or medicine. While a lawyer, for example, may be generally defined as a person possessing a law degree and state license to practice law, there is not a legally-required educational requirement or license for economists. In some job settings, the possession of a Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in economics is considered the minimum credential for being an economist. However, in some parts of the US government, a person can be considered an economist as long as they have four or more university courses in economics. As well, a person can gain the skills required to become a professional economist in other related disciplines, such as statistics or some types of applied mathematics, such as mathematical finance or game theory.

A professional working inside of one of many fields of economics or having an academic degree in this subject is widely considered to be an economist, and any person within any of these fields can claim to be one[citation needed]. Economists are also employed in banking, finance, accountancy, commerce, marketing, business administration, lobbying and non- or not-for profit organizations.

Politicians often consult economists before enacting policy, and many statesmen have academic degrees in economics

  2. Perhaps you need to meet some males worthy of your attention. We’re not all that way.
  3. I agree that not ALL men are jerks, but it seems like all the men you have met are. You need a change of scenery girl. Get out of that hell you call “home” and you may start to meet some decent people (even guys)
  4. You have a very common life.Know that your story isnt very different than than the next woman.What i say is if you always look where you always look you will always get what you get.Try newer surroundings.And good luck!

believe it or not there are some fantastic men out there, you just have to know where to look. nobody can make excuses for what has happened to you, and none of it is your fault. your brother is probably harbouring some issues though, regarding the father and step father situation, as you probably know, your father and step father would have been the role models for your brothers behaviour. this doesnt make it right though. maybe you should talk to him, him may not even know he is the way he is. you also need to talk to someone (ie a psychotherapist) about what has happened to you, if you havent already, they will help you deal with what happened as well as give you some more self confidence. as for the boys at your school, all boys are like that, and maybe making friends with some girls wouldnt be a bad idea, but be choosy, as you will probably confide in them your deepest darkest secrets. as for the guy who told you to go away, it could be that he had more on his mind thatn you know about, and he is finding it hard to deal with his problems as well as yours (he could have been a bit nicer though). you never know, he might have been the nice guy you are looking for and may care about you a hell of a lot, which then it would hurt him to see you in so much pain.
sorry about the long winded reply, but i hope i helped.

 

  1. hang in there.youve just had one hell of a life so far.were not all assholes.i wish the best for you because more than likely your going to or probably already do have major trust issues when it is going to involve us.i wish i could of been the most recent friend of yours because what i need more than anything right now is a female friend.not trying to get a laugh from the guys.lifes a strange place.it’ll be alright.it’ll all work out.
  2. Really, not all of them are jerks, but the majority are. Don’t worry you are 17 you will meet a lot of good guys. May be you need to try some time to avoid friendship with men. See what will happen, may be you need to take your time.
  3. After reading your post…
    I’m sorry that you had to go through all that…
    Try joining a “support”-group, as in just a group of people coming together having some fun.
    I’m a Christian youth leader, and we have a youth programme.
    I’m sure you could probably find something somewhere that would fit you.

    By the way. I believe everything happens for a reason. Keep your chin up. Stay positive.
    If you get through this, you will be an ambassador for women who have the same problems. And perhaps you can even help them. Let that motivate you.
    But first. Help yourself. You are strong. You CAN get through this.

  4. U have gone through some big difficulties! All I can say is ur plain unlucky regards to males. Hope you find a nice person soon.
