Back stabbed.. After friday night's bad experience at the club, I was told that the genetic girls (which were brought in to augment our numbers as the ts girls are notoriously hard to get to come in) would be de-emphazied. Not fired, just de-emphasized, and only brought in if circumstances absolutely demanded it. For the last two Friday's we had plenty of tgirls, but still we had a bunch of genetic girls, because no one was keepng a schedule. So hardly any of us made even our house fees,and everyone

tell because no sport shouldn’t be segregated it doesn’t matter if boy or girl, adult, and children. I feel that sport should be a fun and healthy activities for anybody without being segregated. For example, When I was in elementary and high school boy and girl play together it doesn’t matter what type of sport activity in PE it was just for fun. I never experience when a boy would play rough during sport activity with girl. We always get alone and care for each other enjoy playing kickball or flag

We Can Be Lovers Too In this day and age it seems that there is no romance left in our society. Sex is easily accessible with things like Internet porn and social media chatting, that we (as men) no longer have to try to attract a girl to us. The effort of romanticism is gone. The new generations of young men do not know what it means to show affection, romance or love. There still is some hope for romance and chivalry. Despite all of the social media distractions the young men in our society have

We all seen the different stereotypes that the media has portray women to be from the femme fatale, the supermom, the sex kitten, the nasty corporate climber.

There has to be said that there have been some strides that have been made in which the way that women are portrayed

Chrissi Ridge Comm. 101 Neil Singleton Toddlers and Tiaras The little girls in this television show are given crowns, ribbons, and trophies without any of them actually doing anything to deserve them. It's obvious to an outsider that the pageants are set up as some sort of money making mumbo jumbo by giving every single participant some sort of prize.
