Why do people discriminate?
Most people would say people discriminate do to ignorance!
I believe its more to do with change, we see everyday how people react to changes in there life’s, why should it be any different when people are forces change in there social status? Females become more equal, people of different raciest having the same rights as others and short people joining the NFL.
It’s all change!
Do u discriminate too...
YES of course I do, everyone does.
Discrimination: noting/perceiving differences which exist
Do you do the same things with males that you do with females?
Of course not: there is a difference in the needs for each gender, a social difference and an emotional different so why would you!
Its more how much and why you discriminate, not weather you do or not
What do u tend to gain when u do dat?
Justification for an action, heightened self image, increased social position, the list goes on!
I don’t really think it’s a fair question,
We live in a world of political correctness; People feel they have a social obligation to portray an acceptance of different social groups

I’m not saying there is no new and good music out today,
I’m saying main stream music people like Simon cowl, Sony music and other main stream music companies are Promoting faces not talent! If they keep promoting people like Justin Timberlake and Britney spears and other little talent pretty faces what are we going to be left with?
Loads of people around the world listen to main stream believing that what they are hiring is the best there is!
These companies continue to fantasize Music,
The true artists of past decades would not have made it to the Level that they have made it in today society!

The listed talent are underground in there roots but have had mainstream success then returned to there roots to be with there fan base!
I was going to date the listed but that made the post way to long!
Hammerfall 1978
Wizard 1979 if I remember correct?
Approx 15 go there start in 80’s and about 28 got there start in 90’s, so we cant list these as new talent, the list should be made up of talent Like HIM or Skindred Not Old thrash or death metal bands
Look at how many of these have been dropped from there labels and have had to restart some making there own label, some having to be independent, just so they can have there freedom to release un-censored music, and this lowers there distribution!
Its more that underground good music will not get the main stream success of bands and artists of old, promoters are not looking for the new look or the new wave there forcing a trend down out throats!

Hello all: (or no one, lol).
Well I was watching The Box the today!
Got me thinking about music and what today’s charts represent!
It made me think about the fact that true artists are a dieing breed.
Look at the last 10 years or Look at the 60’s 70’s 80’s 90’s what does it suggest to you in relation to music.
In today’s society would great artist like meat loaf, Aretha Franklin, Oozy, Buddy Holly, Billy Holiday, Jerry Lee Hooker and hundreds of others iconic artists have made it on the scene! Yes there are some great artist today but not a majority most of today’s artist are the beautiful people, it does not really matter how they sing but what they look like! turning music into a superficial industry rather then an artistic body
Each decade we seem to lose some of the soul that music represents, be it opera to blues to pop
We now have a music industry that spews out pretty girls and boys who do not have the talent as some lesser known artists all because there not astatically pleasing.
A prime example is X factor were semi talent less people are paraded before us as artists, raved about for there skill and talent.
Yes there have been great artist that are also good looking but should there look’s be a factor in there success or should an artist be judged solely on there abilities?
There are good artist out there today but the percentage has been getting smaller and smaller, soon we will be at the point that are no true artist just manufactured singers!

60’s Rock and Roll, Soul and Folk music
70’s Heavy Metal, Punk and Disco (yucky but some people like disco)
80’s True Romantics, hip-hop and Ska
90’s Indie, R&B and Dance
00’s Urban
10’s
What have you done for me lately?

Back on topic,
The basic point is with all the pain out there, there is good as well!
All those emotions that lead to hideous crimes are the same emotions that allow us to do great good, which should give us hope!
We look around and we see pain!
the media advertise the pain, the War, the torture and the hate, down playing greater acts of heroism, were forgetting about the stuff people do everyday that good, kind and Selfless in favour of hurt, pain and sorrow
yin and yang

Thanks
I feel all warm in side, that maybe just the coffee but ill give you all the credit!
Me I’m nothing if I’m not myself!
Ok my welcome has become food ordering menu page, I can live with that I want Chinese!

Hi all:
I meant to do this before I posted but I get tied up with ideas and go off on the odd tangent!
So I’m here known to introduce myself!!
I’m not really a new member I came on a while ago wrote something basic and forgot about it, you know that annoying thing called life!
Well I’m back and hope to make some friends if nothing else
Well I think that’s all!!

Ty

LOL I’m not trying to look intelligent, far from it I’m dyslexic and I use these boards to practice!
I’m trying to express my opinion in relationship to a topic you posted
I expressed Displeasure at someone saying there empathic, but not understanding something as basic as fear, anger, hate, loathing, Love, desire and all the other emotions out there that make the most intelligent person do amazing, wondrous and hateful things!
If you read all I said I said basically what your accusing me of I don’t know your life, but guess what you don’t know there’s! I have no idea what could drive you to kill a child.
I can’t imagine feeling so lost that I would take anyone life, I can’t imagine even considering it, but you think you can, not only can you understand it but you have the cure! I admit your cure is a work of art we can stop paying psychologists all we have to do is ignore there individual emotional response of different people in different situations how easy is that?
Ok ill put it a bit better!
empathy which literally translates as in feeling, is the capability to share another being's emotions and feelings have you ever considered killing a child?
So how can you see how they would take the only choice they feel is open to them I did not even go it to there mental state!
Mate If your not open to basic debate what are you posting for!

It took you 35 years to learn, yet you have parents and family loved one and friends, teacher and councillor, what do you think they were doing for the 35 years sitting on there thumbs?
We all learn different things at different times, we look at the walls surrounds our lives and yet we still throw rocks at others!
Your life is different from every other person yet you sit on you pc BS about how empathic you are?
If you can’t understand how someone can snap,
How the world can turn completely black,
How the sun can just stop being,
How empathic are you?
Empathy you need to understand the dark as well as the light
Don’t get me wrong I hate to think about a child dieing I hate to see families destroy, I would hate to lose 8 million
But I don’t know the family that’s child died, I don’t know the family destroyed and I don’t blinking have 8 million, so I feel pain I wont kid myself to how other feel, because though I can sympathy I cant feel there emotions!
Next time you think about Complaining because your some real empathic person, go talk to someone rapt, someone that’s had a miscarriage tell them how much you understand how they feel! Because there laughing in your face

Ok that sounds a little nastier then I meant!

No sex does not have to mean marriage and kids, but sex should be more then our baser instincts!
As you’re all telling you kids to relax and enjoy, I bet most of you are also saying that Sex with someone you love and or care about is so much better or something simpler?
I don’t think you mean this as a contradiction!
I think you all would prefer if young people cared about the person they shared there body with, not just noticing a cute guy or girl and jumping in to bed! You also don’t want them getting to involved before there ready
There are allsorts of people out there and on here find someone you like and get to know them and enjoy the time, if you take the time you will find the kind of person you want.
We as humans are a fickle bunch!

Hay I think its great you have not been gadded my your mums out look.
So many people as they get older start talking negatively about there chances and what they can expect and all that.
It’s really just down to you,
If you settle then you have to except you settled.
If you stay true to what you want then if you succeed or fail it’s down to you.
The risks are really the same settling means you will have someone to share moments with, but not a true connection, Staying true means you maybe alone forever or you may find that tingle, that spark we all hunt for Is the chance with the risk
Only really thing I would say is if you settle and then find the one what then?
I personally will stay true to myself, yes I may never find what I’m hoping to find but in the end its that chance that keeps me going!

Me and some mates were out and one of my mates got into a fight with some guy that would not leave one of our female friends alone, this put my mate in a bad mood!
as we left later that night I was making jokes trying to cheer him up.
we left other mate at kebab van, walking down middle of the road joking and laughing
I shouted at a taxi to get out the road as we were walking there, laughing and joking as you do. as we inched over to pavement a cop comes running up to us shouting.
We stop to find out what’s up and cop starts on me about aggressive behaviour?
This was not the case as were still laughing and the taxi driver waves as he’s leaving. I didn’t want my mate around a cop in his mood so I started to walk away dragging mate with me, Mr lovely smiley face cop follows us and kept getting right in my face so I stopped! I figured he is just being a jobs worth so I let him tell me off as if I was five, finally he’s finished and we get to the taxi rank! I sat on one of them newspaper boxes waiting for taxi line to go down my mate gets in queue, as I sat there I was swinging my legs back and forth watching people as any good people watcher would do my mate gets into a fight with some of the other taxi queuing public, I see the officer coming over and I am ready to jump down and pull my mate out of there but the officer ignored the queue and continued to me.
Officer then starts on at me saying he is going to arrest me for damage to private property because I was kicking the news box, at this I looked down to see the damage and just laughed in his face and asked him what damage!
The fight in the queue breaks up and my mate comes over to see what was happening, with a light cigarette my mate starts arguing with the officer point his cigarette inches from his face swearing a blue streak at how corrupt this officers is and nothing the officer ignores him, minuets after that the officer arrested me for drunk and disorder, I asked for a breath test and was ignored when we got to the station I asked for another again I was ignored
Funny thing about that was I have not drunk alcohol for about 14 years

I think it’s more important than that,
Yes we all see different things about each other attractive and yes what’s on the inside is going to be a strong indicator as to IF things work out.
But don’t we at some point need to look closer
I like certain features in a female: eyes that sparkle, frizzy hair, lips that pout, dimples and freckles but these are likes, I may find these details attractive but that just attraction, I have no intention of dating only female with these attributes. If a female had all the details I find attractive would she be attractive to me?
I’m also worried about Dee saying basically her whole statement:
“I HAVE BEEN LOOKING FOR SOMEONE FOR 12 YEARS NOW, I AM TIRED.TIRED OF GETTING MY HEART BROKEN AND TIRED OF FAKE PEOPLE”
Is she doing the same thing every time, is she in some way advertising To people that fall into the categories,
“I AM ALSO SEEKING A GUY WHO DOSE NOT JUDGE WOMEN ON WHAT THEY LOOK LIKE ON THE OUTSIDE...”
The only person we should be able to guarantee will have a positive opinion of use is ourselves, it sound like a desperate plea for someone to reaffirm her self image.
“STOP WORRYING ABOUT WHAT OTHERS WILL SAY TO YOU. GO WITH YOU HEART.”
Are you talking to use or yourself? If a persons self image is week they will see fault in others to cover what they feel within themselves!
A personal with low self esteem would be an easy target for the sort of man she has mentioned!
I think some question need to be answered!
The people you have dated, do they have the same characteristic as each other not necessary how they look but personal traits?
When was the last time you looked in a mirror and said something positive about yourself?
Does a physical relationship start at the beginning of a relationship or are you waiting until you know these people?
