Who knows Russians?

Nikodim @Nikodim (7) • Russian Federation 10 Mar 07

What do you know about Russia and its residents? Do you really suppose, that Russia is very cold and the only animal here is white bear? If so, i can tell you that you are a victim of banal stereotypes.

Being black in America

queenajasmina @queenajasmina (449) • United States 30 Jan 07

I recently responded to a discussion on here of someone who said they were proud to be white. I felt that that was great. He was standing up for his culture and proclaiming what he felt was true. Then he went on to say how America...

Any ideas on preventing diaper rash?

GuateMom @GuateMom (1411) • Canada 8 Mar 07

My son gets the worst diaper rashes and they don´t go away for ages. They start off like a regular rash and eventually form sores that must really hurt. I´ve tried letting him run around without a diaper, using only water to wash...

sweetrose @sweetrose (137) • Philippines 8 Jan 07

What's your reaction about polygamy? Some religion tolerate. Do we really need sometimes to have more than 1 wife?

djaboo32 Just don't do it. How many men in this country or any country can be a good husband to more than one wife? I mean really, most men can't seem to do right by one wife. And even when a man has more than one wife, is his thirst ever fully quenched? Another...

djaboo32 Yes, I have- I have fallen asleep at my desk, in meetings, on the phone, my boss has caught me, and I have taken the liberty to even go to bathroom and take power naps. Praise GOD for coffee- I don't do any of that anymore!

djaboo32 This would be ny greates fear- that I would really enjoy talking to the person on the internet, but then when we met- there would be sheer emptiness. This is why I fear internet dating- or any blind dates/ hook-ups.

djaboo32 JOEY322- this is deep deep in the weeds and souls of the south- Blacks have been mistreated for so long in that area- and have been faced with so many injustices- they have learned to become really communal and trusting of one another only. Especially with the...

Are Biracial Relationships okay? Or should Whites stay with Whites?

AZmomof3boys @AZmomof3boys (94) • United States 25 Dec 06

Is it okay for a white woman to marry a black man? What about a white man and a black woman? How does it make you feel when you see them? What are your first thoughts? Do you think to yourself "what does she see in him"? Do...

djaboo32 You know what-I can honestly say that I have had all of those thoughts at one point or another. But I have to also say that as a black woman- I have no color barriers- I will date/marry white, hispanic, indian, asia, etc.... As long as we are of equal mindsets...

djaboo32 You have not offended me. But to comment on the Huck Finn book- I don't think they should have black listed the book- it depicts the state of America at that time- We should not hide what is history and the culture of the time. I think it is educational and...

Afican Americans are NOT from Africa!

TopDawg216 @TopDawg216 (24) • United States 19 Jan 07

I'm sick of the term "African-American". If you were an AA, you would actually need to be born IN AFRICA. Unless you have dual citizenship, or if you were not born in Africa, you are NOT an African-American. Maybe an American...

djaboo32 It's nothing wrong with the term- but I think its intent is to recognize that blacks in America descended form Africa, just as Asian Americans, Irish American, etc... they may have been born here in the U.S. but they are descendents from that region. Why do we...

djaboo32 It's that kind of pampering that is going to make it really difficult for the wife. How is she going to compare- He'll measure all her nurturing qualities against you. Then again, why is she even allowing all this and living with you still? I think at 23, he...
