You Are An Intro-Extrovert!

Sometimes you're social - sometimes you're shy

You've got a bit of an Introvert / Extrovert split going on

You enjoy all sorts of situations. Parties, small groups, and alone time.

Too much of one, and you'll long for the other. You need varity!

Chances are, you've got both serious and fun friends - and they don't get along.

take this corny quiz



Im rushing to complete my socio essay and came upon some interesting points.

"The end of the 20th Century was a strange and highly public time for the type of social relationships that are normally considered private."

*A Virginia woman made national headlines for months after she slicef off her husband's penis after he had allegedly repeatedly raped her. That same year, 3 to 4 million women were battered by their husbands.

*On a Web site established in 1999, the eggs of fashion models were put up for auctionto those who want to create beautiful babies from a stanger's genetic material

We live in a weird world huh?

The normalization of Rape.
The concept of Rape has disturbingly become the norm. Nowadays we become almost immune to it and its pretty much a regular thing that takes place everyday. Its strangely become acceptable. Well, not acceptable in the sense that women go out and scream 'rape me' but acceptable in the sense that its so common its normal. 'She got raped'- aw really? so what?

Rape is not about sex at all, except in a narrow sense that sexual activity is involved:rape is a matter of power. Studies of rapists show that they are no more sexually frustrated than other men, and that they differ little from other men except in their hostilitty towards women.
Moreover, most rapes are planned and can hardly therefore be explained in terms of an outburst of sexual desire (Jureidini et al, 2003).

It is pure bullshit when rapists say they cannot control their primal male urges of sexual desire (Kam, 2004).

lol. yea im showing off my newly-gained referencing skills

oh and by the way, men who have to resort to rape in order to have sex with a woman are Losers. yea, with a capital L.
