| I am not a psychologist. However, from what i know of lymphomania and the like, what i do know is that it's a mostly mental thing as apposed to a hormonal thing (though to be fair, high hormone levels can contribute. Too most tesosterone anyone?). However, i think it's probably something that needs ... |

| Well this is certainly an issue that hasn't caused a great deal of personal introspection and personal angst /sarcasm mode off/ I must admit, reading some of the responses from the ladies of our fair forum's quite interesting. I've always had the 'male' side of this discussion (i know a fair few guy... |

These ethics are of course, based on the principle that all systems are cybernetic regardless of how they are constructed; and if such a system harbou... |

Muslim people climb the social ladder and so their religion will also gain acceptability. Tradition and prejudices may constitute an obstacle now, but it is only a matte... |
