| Boink and let boink, as long as it's all between consenting adults and out of the public eye. It's not any other persons business what people get up to in the bedroom. |

How would Valeria know the difference between hir and her in spoken language? The seem like they would be pronounced precisely the same.
"Little lady," however, is indeed demeaning. |

| I hope to die either by being shot by a jealous husband or in the sort of car accident that makes the national news. I'm not exactly seeking it out, though, and neither should you be. If you have urgings in that direction, please, find somebody to talk it over with. There are people who will do thei... |

| Builders will build what people will pay them the most money to build. It's the markets choice, really. Personally, I've always preferred a larger homes. I'm a mite claustrophobic, so I like having large rooms with high ceilings. If I could afford to have a house custom built, there would probably o... |

| Immigration is neccesary and a good thing, when properly regulated and controlled. Make it too hard to get in, the people you want will go somewhere else. Make it too easy, and you end up with people that won't contribute anything to the system, or worse, become a drain upon it. |

| Do you want National Geographic photographers to hand out t-shirts or something when they're photographing cultures that don't wear full-coverage clothing? A lot of cultures in warmer parts of the world go naked or what a lot of people would consider half clothed because that's what's comfortable i... |

| Casual nudity is shown in National Geographic because that's just how it is in some African cultures. Im not so sure about that. If the models were white I cant imagine that that would be acceptable really. Can you imagine a full page spread of 13 yr old girls running about starkers in the local wo... |

| Nope, classic absinth was really quiet poisonous and brain damaging, so it wasnt forbidden out of fun. Additional it was in earlier times so dangerous, because of it being produced "by hand", so there was a broad variation, just as every "collection of wine" gets a bit else, according to weather, u... |
