Of course, when it comes to IQ scores however, the numbers suggest otherwise. The average or normal IQ score for a white person is 100 while the average IQ score for a Black person is 85.

They can only act like this by denying the Divine authority of the Bible, and by believing that a 'loving' relationship - of whatever form - is more important than upholding God's law. In this modern world, we need to know why the Bible says that homosexual behaviour is so wrong, and why - despite the Bible's message - some churchmen so often defend an individual's right to enter into a homosexual relationship.

The first is only interested in herself and what she can acquire. The latter has more or less resigned herself to dating you because she thinks you’re the best she can do at this moment in time; she probably “likes you ok” but she will never love you. Ideally, you want to avoid these chicks whenever possible. Unfortunately, these women are usually a peg or two above their respective men in terms of looks, so the guys are usually too busy thanking God for their good fortune to notice how frequently Jane needs a new pair of shoes.

Swinging has been called wife swapping in the past, but this term has been criticized as androcentric (taking a male-oriented point of view) and inaccurately describing the full range of sexual activities in which swingers may take part. An open relationship is a relationship in which the participants are free to have emotional, spiritual and/or physical relationships with other partners. If the couple making this agreement are married, it is an open marriage. Open relationships are often confused for partnered non-monogamy in which only multiple sexual relationships are arranged with other partners. 01:30:00B-Serious or Not noswingers,open relationships,monogamy,husbands,marriageSwinging, sometimes referred to as the swinging lifestyle, is "non-monogamous sexual activity, treated much like any other social activity, that can be experienhttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/bseriousornot/2009/10/20/ContinuationEntertainmenthttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/bseriousornot/2009/10/20/Continuation/#commentshttp://www.blogtalkradio.com/bseriousornot/2009/10/20/ContinuationTue, 20 Oct 2009 00:30:00 GMTSex Education and Sexual PreferenceMany parents want to know at what age is it appropriate to start teaching their children about sex. What most of us don’t think about is that the question presumes that there is an age at which sexuality becomes important or “an issue”. This presumption is 100% wrong. Sexuality is an intrinsic part of who we are, from birth to death. And while our sexuality isn’t the same when we’re six as when we’re sixteen, or sixty, it is always there and always a part of us. So the question isn’t so much when to start talking with your children about sex, but how to do it at every age and stage of their lives. A part of discovering one's total identity is the firming of sexual orientation, or sexual, emotional, romantic, and affectionate attraction to members of the same sex, the other sex, or both. A person who is attracted to members of the other sex is heterosexual. A person who is attracted to members of the same sex is homosexual. Many use the term gay to refer to a male homosexual, and lesbian to refer to a female homosexual. A person who is attracted to members of both sexes is bisexual. If Sex Education is taught to the youth at the right time, will this have an impact on their sexual preference?01:30:00B-Serious or Not nosexuality,sex education,religion,homosexuals,lesbiansMany parents want to know at what age is it appropriate to start teaching their children about sex.

One simply tells the number of years youve been on the planet from the time of your birth and the other tells how far ahead you are of your time in terms of your thinking and attitude. The former deals with the physical while the latter is more on the emotional, psychological perhaps and even spiritual levels of your personhood. Studies show that women mature more easily than men. This is perhaps due to the nurturing instincts of women which turn them into more responsible human beings early on in life. Men, on the other hand, have the natural need to be nurtured, hence, they, most of the time, need someone to do the nurturing on them. This is just the way things are; this creates the balance. In fact, the differences between men and women are what make them a perfect combination. 01:30:00B-Serious or Not noHealth,women,men,relationships,maturityWhy Women Mature Faster than Men There is a difference between age and maturity.

In the big world of music the ability to multi-task is essential. But taking it up a notch and adding more creativity and drive makes one stand out to claim the title of an “Ultra-Tasker.” Cameron a.K.a “Skewby” exemplifies just that. Rapping and producing is what he lives, eats, sleeps and breathes. He also claims graphic design as “just” a hobby (so fallback about getting him to design your mix tape cover.) But what is his method to madness? Where did the Memphis native find his creative juices? Lord T & Eloise Based in Memphis, TN, rap duo Lord T & Eloise are pioneers of "aristocrunk," a style that incorporates hip-hop, party rap, and crunk to alternately celebrate and satirize the lives and lifestyles of the super-wealthy, particularly those born into old money families. Lord Treadwell (Lord T) and Maurice Eloise XIII (Eloise) count Snoop Dogg, the Beastie Boys, Public Enemy, and Busta Rhymes among their musical influences, but the two have a style all their own. Lord T & Eloise's act is highly visual and borders on performance art, with the former dressing as an 18th century lord (complete with powdered wig) and the latter sporting suits and 24-carat gold skin. They released their first album, Aristocrunk, in 2007. ~ Katherine Fulton, All Music Guide 01:30:00B-Serious or Not nomusic,hip hop,funk,Rock,entertainmentSKEWBY!

But it's not only strangers who rape. In fact, about half of all people who are raped know the person who attacked them. Girls and women are most often raped, but guys also can be raped. Most friendships, acquaintances, and dates never lead to violence, of course. But, sadly, sometimes it happens. When forced sex occurs between two people who already know each other, it is known as date rape or acquaintance rape. Even if the two people know each other well, and even if they were intimate or had sex before, no one has the right to force a sexual act on another person against his or her will. Although it involves forced sex, rape is not about sex or passion. Rape has nothing to do with love. Rape is an act of aggression and violence. You may hear some people say that those who have been raped were somehow "asking for it" because of the clothes they wore or the way they acted. That's wrong: The person who is raped is not to blame. Rape is always the fault of the rapist. And that's also the case when two people are dating — or even in an intimate relationship. One person never owes the other person sex. If sex is forced against someone's will, that's rape. 01:30:00B-Serious or Not norelationships,romance,religion,rape,youthWhen people think of rape, they might think of a stranger jumping out of a shadowy place and sexually attacking someone.

Many abusive women falsely accuse their partners of infidelity while they have affairs. These women often abuse children or animals.
