I genuinely don't know if cultural erosion is something to worry about or not. Or even if it's measurably happening. What I do know is that people feel it is happening, and that's causing a resentment that leads people to racist viewpoints. If people want to preserve their culture (or some particul...

This could also have gone into Love & Dating. Does anyone else feel as though they are incapable of “feeling close” to anyone? I put that in quotes because it is so difficult to even conceptualize or explain. I feel completely alone in this world despite having regular social contact with sever...

In the Middle Ages some writers alleged that a woman -- disguised as a man -- was once elected Pope, and then, after about two years, was very violently killed when her sex was discovered. See Encyclopedia Britannica and Wikipedia for details.

Pausing the employee resource groups' activities (pending government policy clarifications and possible legal battles) makes sense, but outright disbanding the groups does NOT make sense to me. Seems to me that the groups are needed now more than ever! And rebuilding the groups from scratch will not...

It's also kind of hypocritical that somebody's skin has to be this dark in order for this sort of stuff to matter. There is only now starting to be greater awareness of the ethnic cleansing of white folks. By "the ethnic cleansing of white folks," I assume you mean the ethnic cleansing of...

My solution: To try to solve this, consider the relationship between the sequence of cubes (of natural numbers) and the modulo 6 numbers (remainders of whole number division by 6). 1^3 == 1 == 1 (mod 6) 2^3 = 8 == 2 (mod 6) 3^3 = 27 == 3 (mod 6) 4^3 = 64 == 4 ...

I'm an autistic woman and was diagnosed when I was 7. When I've been to groups for autistic women most of them were diagnosed later so the groups seemed to focus on late diagnosis and I felt as though I didn't really fit in. Are there any groups or organizations for autistic women that aren't so fo...
