Will someone please answer this question:

Why is it so F&*ING important to men that women change their names?

It's not that I don't want to. I'm just making a difficult process even more difficult adding the fact that I now live in Germany.

According to a study released, more women are having less children - or none at all. It addresses all the demographic factors and percentages, however, it is missing a critical aspect - why are women choosing to have less or more importantly, none at all.

We've been having trouble with the kids in the neighborhood - no supervision, nor does it seem their parents teach them to be well-behaved, considerate, respectable HUMAN BEINGS!

Obama made a speech on Father's Day emphasizing the need for fathers to take an active role in their children's lives. I applaud him for his speech. Many people need to hear that message ... many "people" ... I say people because it's not just fathers who need to recognize this - Mothers need to be just as active in that role and ALLOWING fathers ( Read more... )

Saturday was "The Pill Kills Day" (for those of you, like me, who hadn't the faintest idea) and I'm thinking, "ARE THEY SERIOUS!" There's a day for everything nowadays. And what a waste of money on a campaign, especially during a time when the money could go to ( Read more... )
