[Read the article: It's a girl ... please]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Damn--we both sort of stirred the shit, so to speak.
I guess what I was getting at was that the poor will get poorer & the rich will get richer, if current trends hold.
You know how much an Indian Computer Engineer with a masters gets paid??
Less than 20K a year (the one I met was paid 12K/US--so I'm being generous). You really think Intel will start paying them more? Dream on. If they were going to pay more they'd just hire engineers in a western country and save the hassle of trying to manage employees 12 time zones away.
You know how much a filina with a bachelors starts out at in a professional job in Manila? And what about the 90+% who have a HS education or less?? Minimum wage in the Phils is $4/US a day--but no one pays that much.
As for height & penis size, couldn't really say. I'm not attracted to men ;)

[Read more letters about this article: Here]I'm not even sure why I am hassling with this discussion, I prefer asian women myself.
So hey american women--go get them asian guys, leaves more women for the shadow! ;)
Also, where was this city in which 50% of the people are asian???

[Read the article: Isn't 16 a little young for marriage? ]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]most kids don't give a flying f**k what their parents say.
Did you??
These kids are getting married. Nothing LW can do about it. She might as well be supportive and hope for the best.
And one up-side of this is that if these kids actually are self-supporting, their parents won't have some lazy, over-educated sack-of-shit living on their couch at age 35.
At worst they'll get a hard dose of the real world.
Zenjim--so these people don't live their lives the way you approve of, huh?? Well, guess what--other peoples lives are NONE OF YOUR GOD-DAMNED BUSINESS.
Amen.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Quite courageous of you, attacking me while posting anonymously.
Odd that in the previous 'rant' we were overwhelmed with women talking about how great asian men are.
But I point out that I prefer asian women & you choose to attack me for it.
Never ceases to amaze me the hypocracy of the left.
BTW--my last 'asian' gf is a senior systems analyst for a large international company and makes 6-figures. We're still close freinds. She came to the US as a 'boat person' in 1975 and could not even speak the language. She's still one of my personal heros.
How are you doing, you filthy racist??

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Depends on the location, of course.
A 500K house in Fargo---a near-mansion.
A 500K house in San Francisco--->>> a tent on an abandoned lot!

Stephanie is right
[Read the article: Toronto Film Festival]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]The 'Big Chill' sucked!! Not one single Beatles song in all the crapola they listened to.
Joy Division sucked too. So did nearly all music from 1978 until about 1990. (& don't tellme I am too old--I was 18 in 1980)
Then Nirvana brought back some life to a dead dead dead genre.
Boy George anyone????

[Read more letters about this article: Here]When the gulags open up in Idaho and New Mexico, in addition to the waterboards, both will be projected onto the cell walls in an endless loop.
Damn You!!!
That line made me laugh so hard the soda I am drinking 'snorted' out of my nose & my co-workers came over to see what was wrong!

[Read the article: Women are the new men on TV]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]you make lots & lots of money and are very successful and 'self-actualized'. I'll even go further and say you are the greatest person ever to live in this or any other universe.
We get it.
Are you gonna post your W-2's on the internet for us to view next??
As far as TV goes, it is pretty much a vast wasteland--130 channels of shit on the TV to choose from--to paraphrase an old pink floyd line.
The news is spun spun spun to fit the commercial interests of the advertisers.
People still watch network shows?? That in itself amazes me.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]makes 80K a year.
A HARD-EARNED 80K a year.
And SHADOW is perfectly happy with what he makes & his life in general.
If YOU have problems with SHADOW'S income or life, YOU have a problem--not SHADOW!
Amen.
Carry on ;)

[Read the article: Women are the new men on TV]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]maybe for the super-hot woman thats true. At least with shallow jerk-types.
But for the avg looking woman, not so much.
For the most part, from my vantage point, most people just want to live their lives & not be harrassed, hassled, called names, accused of outrageous things, etc etc.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Thats true of hotties---10's so to speak.
Obese, unattractive women??? No way.

Holly
[Read the article: Fear of a female planet]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]If you are obese and unattractive--I don't care how much I drank--I'm not gonna f**k you. I'd much rather sleep alone.
Sorry, but thats a fact.
Not saying I speak for all men, just myself.

[Read more letters about this article: Here]Actually, yeah I could.
Society isn't designed in some Ivy League ivory tower.
Market forces explain alot of what happens in the world.
If there is a huge market for men--and don't kid yourself, there is other than on some internet blogs in which the people have a veriiable political slant--& a very small supply, of course men would wield enormous social power.
But who would want such a society??
I would truely not want to live in a world without the diversity, intelligence, beauty, etc. that women bring.
If you dream of a world without men--you've got serious problems--seek professional help.

[Read the article: Fear of a female planet]
[Read more letters about this article: Here]Nice of you to take that sub-thread between Holly & I out of context.
Holly was implying--if I recall--that any woman could get any man to have sex with her at any time.
I disagreed.
That was the crux of the matter.
Sorry if that bothers you. That I & some other men have standards.
Wouldn't it be MORE piggish to agree with Holly that any man would sleep with any woman under any circumstances?
And how do YOU know what I would consider a 10.
I love these threads--such fun!
