But NO ONE should have the right to have kid after kid, knowing that they can&#039;t afford to feed, clothe and look after the brood without any kind of welfare except in an emergency, maybe, if it&#039;s temporary.

For thousands of years. Maybe if they had been revered, respected and loved for being mothers and housewives, we would still have mom&#039;s for kids to come home to. The women&#039;s movement went too far, as I...

(Still be punished if you sin or whatever, for example, but basically retain free will?) More specifically, do you think you can choose to cease to exist after a time?<br /><br />Whatever it is you deeply and strongly believe is in the afterlife, or &quot;heaven&quot; is what you get. If you want to still feel and look and act human, that&#039;s what you will find. But, what if you make a sinful mistake? Be careful what you believe about that.

Committments are welcome, then the hard part starts. If the love and trust is there, and stays there, when neither party gives a reason to break that special bond. After that, the breaking of the trust, things are...

I never implied a commitment, so what is going on with him?<br /><br />Sounds more like he&#039;s afraid of you finding out something he doesn&#039;t want you to know. Too much baggage, even if he&#039;s not cheating on a wife or girlfriend. Get out before he throws you away when he&#039;s done.

If so, why?<br /><br />The benefit of my many years of experience tells me a lot of reasons why it seems as if nice guys finish last with women. Younger women want to feel safe and cared for.

Are there home remedies that will help ease this pain?<br /><br />You didn&#039;t mention pain or itching. If you do, you might have a yeast infection.

If you are both young and healthy, no std&#039;s, you should be able to have a whole night of lovemaking with brief naps, with no more...

They're not bothering me. Why should I have them removed?<br /><br />Eventually, they will. Wisdom teeth usually rot, even under the gum, and can crowd out other teeth. They often grow in sideways. Very few people have no trouble with them at some time in their lives. Fri, 25 Feb 2005 16:58:27 -0800 http://www.answerbag.com/a_view/16001
