    Old and ugly women do indeed get raped too.

    However, the majority of victims are young women. This indicates at the very least that sexual attraction is a factor. Take it from there.

     

    If an old or ugly woman was raped, most of the people I know would think that the rapist must be under the influence of a drug:)

  2. Just an off note, math and music skills generally go together :)

     

    I would be an exception to that. I really really suck at music but I do well in Math. I'm not a genius though but I usually get high marks in our math tests (maybe the tests I took were just the easy ones).

     

    Anyway, I think how a person is nurtured dominates among the factors that influence the person's intelligence.

  3. Maybe. If you think about something that bothers you so much before you sleep, I believe you will dream about it. I always try influencing my dreams this way so that I would have a good nights sleep. However, it rarely works (but I think it works).

  5. The right to bear arms is slightly less ludicrous than the right to arm

    bears.

     

    My dad is Irish and my mum is Iranian, which meant that we spent most of

    our family holidays in Customs.

     

    Hey - you want to feel really handsome? Go shopping at Asda.

     

    It's easy to distract fat people. It's a piece of cake.

     

    If you're being chased by a police dog, try not to go through a tunnel,

    then on to a little seesaw, then jump through a hoop of fire. They're

    trained for that.

  6. Things that bad in Glasgow?

     

    With more and more people getting degrees in all kinds of subjects it does lower the reputation of "proper" degrees and makes job hunting harder. It also means that in order to stand out you need a postgraduate degree.

     

    that's the case in our country. and in order to be able to teach, you need to take up some subjects in education. some schools, however don't require this, just like the hs i came from. they have good teachers though.

  7. From the way I understand time, it exists when something happens. Maybe I'm just too influenced by science fiction movies, such as, when one can move very fast, he will get old at a faster rate. Lol

    Also, when the universe came into existence, so did time.

  8. Libraries are full of old books. I mean some stuff in it are no longer acceptable/applicable.

    Teachers teach subjects that are irrelevant to their skills and degree.

    Equipments in the laboratories are insufficient. Some can be considered junk because either they are broken or they don't help in the students' learning.

    The good ones are donated by people from richer countries who have visited out of the goodness of their hearts.

    Students would rather mind other matters because their is not enough motivation.

     

    Shouldn't the students be more motivated since they need to do something and better?

  9. im not really sure. but i know that it is hard to lose fat if you are naturally fat. fat is distributed in the body in certain proportions, which is governed by your genes. i'm saying this if you want to slim down. body fat can be gradually reduced, though, but to make it safe, it would take a lot of self-descipline and time. why not ask your doctor?

  10. bats are pretty interesting animals. the species present in an area would tell you the present condition of it. Certain species live on certain altitudes. Some live in disturbed forrests and caves, while others dwell in abandoned buildings. We have spotted a cave once in which it shelters a single species of bat.

    I thought bats are horrible creatures. But I changed my mind after I got close to them.

    Also, they can harbor ectoparasites.:)

  11. And I think dogs are better in sniffing. When I give my cat some food, I let her sniff it and then place it somewhere to find it. She can hardly locate the food. My dog, on the other hand, can easily find the food.

     

    I agree that cats are smart. My cat has a clever way of getting the food that we left from under a cover. But my dog is as smart as my cat. He would pat me to try to get my attention. Then, he would try to tell me that he wants something by leading me to it, such as water or if he wants to urinate.

  12. Wow! I don't know anything about dreams. But my father used to argue about whether dreams can be colored or not. He says they can't be. But I often dream of vivid images. I also have dreams that repeat the next night and dreams that have a continuation. They say, if you will not recall after waking up what you have just dreamed within 10 minutes, you would forget about it.
