I got into a heated discussion with two of my Christian friends about the proper way to raise a boy. I explain to them that if my future son were to ask me for a doll, I would gladly buy it for…Continue

I'm debating on whether or not I should join a Greek organization on my campus. I really want to be apart of a sorority because of the sisterhood and the community service but I fear the fact that they are religious based and may focus too much on rituals and serving the lord.

Jewelz replied to Deme Mo's discussion 'do we really need to teach gender?'"I edited out the line which was irrelevant to my example. Had I used a scent example, I would have edited out the flavor line.

You... asked your own questions... assuming I made a claim that never happened.
You said - I know what flavors I enjoy. I know what scents I enjoy... I know they are not due to biology... nothing feels different about it than other…"
Kir Komrik replied to Deme Mo's discussion 'do we really need to teach gender?'"Hey Kasu,
thank u for being patient with me. and thank u for clarifying ur post in which u embedded a reply to me.
so, here is what i am asking u, if i may:
