A proliferation of rapturous epiphanies from the mind of the wonderful.

Every once in a while, we hear about someone doing something so profoundly dumb, that it makes us wonder what compelled them to do it in the first place. However, stupidity is not exclusive to people who are notably less intelligent than others. In fact, if you think about it, you’ll see how pervasive it really is.

A girlfriend of mine once said that young people love with their eyes and old people with their hearts. However, what she doesn’t realise is that she has just highlighted the fact that romance is inherently rife with a certain type of hypocrisy that has completely maligned the way we understand true love.

Do men ALWAYS buy sex? This is certainly worth contemplation.
In 2006, I had a most enlightening conversation with a young woman who wasn’t what you’d call one of the sharpest knives in drawer. Needless to say, the profundity of what came out of her mouth stumped me for several weeks. Yes, it was that earth shattering at the time. This is what she said:
“All men buy sex. The men who get married pay the most, while the patrons of prostitution pay the least.“
Needless to say, I was appalled. Surely this lass who wasn’t necessarily as smart as she was pretty merely stumbled upon this epiphany through someone else’s cognition. I hadn’t decided to give it further contemplation then until a very recent experience with another woman. Now I fear that she may have been right. No wonder many men are so sexist.

This is a trailer for a documentary called “I’m biracial… not black, damnit!“. It chronicles an ongoing and topical issue among Americans. Is a person who is mixed to identify with blacks or whites? Personally I think the whole issue is moot. Scientifically, the question is as irrelevant as the whole topic of race.

Why do men cheat? A lot of women have pondered on this question with great frustration. The answer however is so profoundly simple that I suspect the reason many have failed to appreciate the utter simplicity of it is largely because they are needlessly looking for an answer much deeper than the obvious. However, science shows that the simplest answers usually suffice.

Have you ever wondered what true friendship really is? It is a most curious thing. Between the people who overvalue casual acquaintances to those who undervalue the one or two people who would truly lay down for them, most people don’t really have any appreciation whatsoever of what friendship really is. But before anyone can appreciate the true nature of friendship, know this:
In the unlikely event that you haven’t noticed, I’ve leaped onto the latest, nearly useless internet based communications band wagon sensation designed to let everyone know your business and to sell smart phones. Yes, that’s right, I’m now a twit; literally and figuratively.

Survival is only for the fittest. No exceptions.Life is all about survival. Survival is all about competition. There would be no point to there being a competition if we all were made of exactly the same stuff. We’re all of the same design, but some of us are better implemented than others. That’s why survival only rewards the fittest. Even the fit will die.
We have two choices in life: Evolve or Die. Because of our genetics, some people will be better at that than others – and that is the frightening reality. For no matter how you look at it, life’s not fair. It never was, still isn’t and never will be. But there is a reason why life isn’t fair. I’m about to tell you why.

I, the fat lady, do hereby declare that I have sung. Now where’s my lighter?If all the women in the world were to be truly liberated, in the sense that they were all educated at the same level as their male counterparts, given truly equal opportunities to occupy all the same positions that men currently do, what do you think will happen to our capacity to continue our existence?
