I had blond hair and blue eyes when I was a kid. Now my hair is strawberry blond and my eyes are still blue, but more gray than they were when I was younger.

I feel that the time is not right for me to have a relationship. I have many changes taking place in my life right now - or about to - and the relationships I have already are the only ones I need to...

There is a certain type of feminism which is so extreme that it is hateful to all things, and not just men. This seems to be the type which Germaine Greer is promoting. If you see all things as...

I think it is better not only for a nation - and this goes for smaller groups too - not to include people with divided loyalties and identities, but also one's own sense of identity - which needs a...

An ideal marriage is a partnership in which both opinions have equal importance. Resentment and division can arise from an imbalance in this regard. As a woman I do not believe that my opinions...

I believe it is important to eat local produce for the sake of the environment - be it meat or vegetable. I don't consume a lot of meat for reasons of personal preference, but I am not a vegetarian....

When people live in close quarters there will naturally be a lot of friction between them. It is inevitable. To blame this on feminism and suggest that it didn't exist before is somewhat naive about...

Islam seems to promote hatred and fear of many animals. It is no wonder that you often read of Muslims being involved in acts of barbarism against them. :thumbdown I may be wrong, but I think that...

Styles and ways of doing things may evolve, but it does not mean that they are not part of the same lineage.

I'm afraid I do not believe that regular education was ever about expanding minds. It seems to me that it's purpose has always been to shape people to become productive members of society one day....

I don't believe merely being closer to something which is not yours than somebody of another group is gives you more right to claim it as your own. This to me is unhealthy thinking. Desiring what...

Some people may see piercings etc. as body mutilation, while others, including our own ancestors, value it as a way of celebrating the body, of decorating it. I do not see any degeneracy in...

Some may say it depends on the legs. :P

Well, appearance can be an excellent indicator of such things.. I don't deny that. :P

I understand. I don't see it as a moral issue though (which is what I get from 'good women'). I think it is simply a matter of taste, which is largely free of moralistic considerations.

I think this is slightly more glitzy than you would find on normal Indian women anyway, so there is still an element of the Western need to jazz things up - which is possibly an attention seeking...

Well, yes, this kind of style is so outlandish that it is truly bizarre for a Westerner to adopt it. It is usually done for attention seeking reasons (on the red carpet maybe). I therefore disapprove...

This is largely a subjective judgement. Some people may like the way it looks, others may find it unsophisticated or even sleazy. I am somewhere in between, I think. I have yet to make up my mind.

What in your opinion would make it look 'retarded'? :D

What are people's thoughts on this phenomenon? Is it acceptable and harmless to dabble in a little 'dress up'? Personally I think it's totally fine, as long as it does not take the place of your own...

Absolutely not. Unless you go overboard - and I could link to pictures of people who have done exactly that, but you need a strong stomach to look at some of them - piercings are just fine. Mild body...

I saw a production of Romeo and Juliet once in which the actress playing Juliet was Indian (from India). I found it so distracting the whole time, but I couldn't say anything about it afterward in...

When this happens unexpectedly there is often a physical reason for it. My friend is very beautiful but also incredibly shy, and she is always the center of attention purely because of how she looks....

You are right, culture does not simply 'spring out of someone' because of genes. However, culture does come at least in part from the shared genetic character of a group of people. You cannot...

Not really. I mean I love the idea of them, and I would even love to be caught in some scary situation with the supernatural, but there is a part of me which just cannot shut itself off and allow...
