Dealing with the pressure: being in love in spite of social conditioning
We are typically conditioned to seek out people like ourselves. I dont think its something bred into us, but rather taught at an early age. People fear the unknown, and therefore are drawn to others who look, behave, and generally seem like themselves. Family also has something to do with it, or ...

The "R" Word
I would like to discuss something Ive never gone into length on the blog before. I will discuss the term r*cist, the dreaded R word. A word that even if it is only implied but not used puts people on the defensive. It causes friendships to crumble, people to disown their own family, and lawsuits for ...

Doctor Watson, I presume you dont speak up because your foot is in your mouth.
Normally we avoid posting news here. After all, this is an opinion blog, not a CNN clone. Still, I couldnt help but find humor in this topic. As Im sure many have heard, famous (or, infamous these days) geneticist James Watson stuck his foot in his mouth quite thoroughly recently. From the Times ...

Its that simple.
For all my complaints, I havent had a bad life. In fact, Ive had a better one than most. However, I can rarely remember being content or truly happy. More often than not I remember being depressed and not knowing why, as though there were some void I couldnt fill. Throughout most of my life I was ...

Ive been listening to a bit of classical music lately, and specifically I started thinking about Ludwig Van Beethoven. Beethoven has always been my favorite classical composer for a few reasons: His music rocks. Its passionate and powerful and you can really feel the emotion behind the music when ...

It really is the season to be an asshole.
This isnt about race or anything, just something that bugged me. Today I went to Trader Joes (an organic food store here on the east coast) and had a run in with a very rude woman. As Im perusing the aisles and trying to weave through the crowd (and it was very crowded), a woman comes up behind me. ...

The boy who cried wolf
Yesterday I talked about the race card. I know, touchy subject, but youve all made some great comments on the topic. This seems to be a matter thats right under the surface for most people. Racisms still alive, I suppose it just dresses better these days. As I said though, I want to follow up on th ...
