@Fly...

Like I look, or act straight laced...? laugh

@Liliana...

Don't let harshness stop you from living a life of love. One should take over the other and you've got it the right way round. Keep going, keep going, keep going. hug

RE: Hippielove

What do you miss about it, Liliana?

RE: why oh why

I think Sweetie is talking about me, Wallops.

She seems to feel uncomfortable with me having no photo and uncomfortable with my posts. I have offered to mail her a photo so she can see who she's talking to.

Anyway, your doppelgänger would be a little sis and should be treated accordingly...because she always treats me like one and I want you to get my own back for me. giggle

Btw, I think you're fibbing about your age. I thought you were loads younger. wow

RE: why oh why

She's a lousy cook and hates it, Wallops!

I swear you were separated at birth. rolling on the floor laughing

RE: why oh why

@ Mimi...

I know your son is younger, it's just I've heard lil bro's are the worst for not letting big sis's out of their sight once they get taller and realise what other boys are thinking! laugh

RE: why oh why

Hello Wallops. Have I ever told you you so much like a friend of mine who lives a couple of streets away, I double-take every time I see your posts?

Your doppelgänger is one of the loveliest people ever, btw. hug

RE: why oh why

Yeah, my girls are as noisy and troublesome as ever. Always a good sign.

It's nice to have them back here and we're having lots of fun and laughs together, thank you.

My granddaughter never stops all day long, though! laugh

hug

RE: why oh why

Yay, thank you Mimi. I've not long since been gifted some cyber cheesecake. I won't be able to move soon. laugh

I hope you and yours are all well. bouquet

RE: why oh why

What is it about some people having no profile pic that bothers you?

RE: Sponge

You're not just saving money, but the environment, too. If were all careful about the small things, it would save a lot chemicals being used to make the sponges and reduce landfill. handshake

RE: The Wind

Anger is there for a reason and should maybe be evaluated rather than suppressed.

Historically, it's not been socially acceptable for women to express anger (oppressing people creates anger, and yet the last thing you want an oppressed group of people to do is get angry). When women cry it may represent a multitude of emotions other than sadness and it may often be tears of rage. Narrative studies have shown that this is evident across many cultures, but the more oppressed women are in a culture, the more they express their anger with tears, in other words, socially acceptable crying.

In which case, perhaps it's oppression which blows out the light of the mind and its the recognition the emotion of anger which sheds light on the mind.

What do you call someone who loves the wind? Have you ever noticed how dogs and children (and Jac the Grippers) get all hyped and excitable when the wind blows high?

RE: Man Walked with Dinosaurs

What if beliefs cloud objectivity and lead to scientific fraud?

Sir Isaac Newton, as I understand it was thought to be a bit dodgy in later life, perhaps due to dementia.

Gregor Mendel, the father of genetics, although he made a massive contribution was thought to maybe be a little biased about assessing the wrinkles in his peas in order to fit his theory.

From the OP, there is not enough information to know who might have been less than objective and the alleged shouted rejection of religion could have been about objectivity, rather than suppression of beliefs, couldn't it? dunno

Not that I'm denying the possibility of academic hierarchy, ethics, protocol, funding, or ego.

RE: Younger men

You say, "I'm not interested."

Alternatively, tell them you know their mother and you're going to tell her what they've said. giggle

RE: #6 -people on dating sites that are not ready to b

So, if I see two, or three black men stealing it's okay to imply that similarities can't be denied based upon group belonging, whilst at the same time denying categorisation?

It's a metaphor. I used it metaphorically.

And you may choose who to have a relationship with. Stop trying to blame women you don't like for being on dating sites, rather than you taking responsibility for your choice in partners.

PS. We're women, not 'females'. You're not determining the gender of hamsters here. roll eyes

RE: #6 -people on dating sites that are not ready to b

I don't know if what you're sensing is right, or wrong. giggle

You are entitled to your own feelings, however. It's up to each of us to work out which bits we're sensing from internal stimuli and which bits from external stimuli.

I can't see much in the way of hair on his head, so I guess he didn't want his armpits to drip on me as he closed in for the smooch.

He's a proper gentleman, see? giggle

You have no control over what others do.

You only have control over your own choices.

You could choose to learn from your experiences and make better relationship choices for yourself in the future.

You can't stop women who are incompatible with you from being members to save yourself the bother of making wiser choices.

Maybe something else from Hugh Masekela to compensate?

RE: #6 -people on dating sites that are not ready to b

If you see someone kicking an elderly person to the floor, they've done nothing to you. Would it be ethical to walk on by, or would you think it right to defend them?

You haven't just talked about individual women, you talked about British and Jamaican women - that's whole groups of women.

People are rarely completely self-aware and self-actualised. I'm wondering why you expect them to be. dunno

Personally, I think being a member of a dating site enables and facilitates personal development for many people. I think that's a good thing. It's up to you how you use it and whether you choose to learn from it. It's not up to you to change it for your convenience.
