| If they call you extremist without any context, they're not really explaining themselves. I imagine some women feel that since women are the only people that are biologically capable of getting an abortion, if you deny the right to an abortion, you must be attacking women specifically. Personally, w... |

| Ideally, the purpose of debate is to help us reason things out and figure out the exact reasons why we disagree with each other. I don't support the idea that debate should be a competition. Emotionally, it's more complicated than that. We live in a democracy, and that means we tend to feel angry an... |

| If I'm texting them, I don't care if they read it right away. I really want to know if people are likely to be angry that their phone makes a noise and wakes them up every time I text them. If people don't typically wake up when they recieve a text, then I would think it's ok. |

| Ettiquette question: When I want to text someone, should I wait until I think they're awake, or should I treat it like email, and text them whenever I want? |

| A girl told me I had a nice butt once. I said "Thanks", and then two days later realized she was probably trying to flirt with me. Even if a guy immediately realizes that a woman is flirting this way, what's an acceptable response? No matter what I try, and no matter how interested the woman seems ... |

| How is it taking advantage of you to tell you that she will go out with you but put off the day she is actually going to go? Do you buy her stuff during this time? Do you stop talking to other girls during this time? Up until 2 years ago, I *did* stop talking to other women. Nobody ever told me it ... |

| It takes a lot of luck to find a day when we're both free. Some people have 2 jobs. It generally takes 2 weeks minimum to set a date. These days, I give them a month before I stop calling. Some women will set dates later on purpose - this is done with the idea that creating this distance will make ... |

| Thanks for the replies... When women show interest, set a date with them in the near future (the next week), and if they try to rearrange it don't let them. It takes a lot of luck to find a day when we're both free. Some people have 2 jobs. It generally takes 2 weeks minimum to set a date. These day... |

| When I ask women out, they very often say yes, but then they always try to lead me on for as long as they can without actually dating me. It's gotten to the point where it feels really destructive to ask women out. These days, when a really hot woman acts like she really likes me, I feel just horrib... |

| My closest friends live far away, so I only see them about once a month or two. The only place I can meet people is at work. The women I ask out generally lead me on and treat me like crap. |

| On the one hand, that would lead to them putting the bulk of their money in investments, because there's nowhere else for it to go. You mean investments as opposed to taxes? AFAIK, there's no clear way to determine that one is better than the other. On the other hand, a glut of money for investment... |
