  1. Well if your asking for help or proof. Then motive is important.
  2. I don't think it is flattering nor do I think it is racist. I don't know the intent nor am i certain how Viola Davis is harmed by being on the cover of time.
  3. If you're hood or make money illegally you have street cred. Pimps Hookers Dealers Boosters and Fences. Where would you place black comedians?
  4. It's like being dumb was cooler than being smart. Yet you had cats that were street and smart. Then you had cats that were street but too slow. Where would you place the following people on the street and smart scale. Cause when you say street, it implies street smart. Malcolm X, Louis Armstrong, Angela Davis, Maya Angelou, Eldridge Cleaver, Miles Davis. Power Man. Black Falcon Another aspect is you could be loved by the street but not be street. Although I am not certain where i would put Iceberg Slim. There's the character and the author . He was a hustler in a few senses of the word. There's a cool documentary about him. Oddly enough a few members of NWA weren't really street, but came off as street. Whereas Q-Tip was a street philosopher. He called himself the abstract and his name is clever.
  5. It's strange to non followers .

    Not certain what you mean?
  7. Feel free to post your ideas, feelings and questions. It's about sharing without domination . At least it is for me.
  8. Cynique I have a few parallels with your story. I was always seeking truth. The light and the truth seemed indistinguishable or oerhaps two sides of the same coin. And now I want to embrace love but more importantly for me compassion. My phone sometimes will type phrases, call people or refuse to show me the bottom of a page
  9. Pioneer have you considered that maybe you are wrong pr perhaps mistaken?
  10. @Mel What if she said cool?
  11. Pioneer why do you want to viewthe Akashic Records.
  12. She looks different in every photo.
  13. I went to school with a few wealthy kids. But we didn't hang out or in. All ir most of the Black, Haitian and Spanish speaking kids all sat at the same table for lunch. There was a white Kid who loved hip hop. And another white kid who sat with us. I think Brothers were more into herb and the white kids were more into pills and Acid. Although there was some interracial smoking and drinking.
  14. This is fascinating.
  15. Pioneer you and I live in such different worlds. It is not possible for me to answer your question.Up until the last year or so I didn't judge people. Now I judge what level to engage with people. So in the first section you are saying only Lesbian women and straight men can judge a woman's attractiveness. Then you say common sense and instinct allows judgement of a woman's attractiveness. So if I put these two sentences together then Gay men and Straight Woman lack common sense and instinct. Which is the logical albeit nonsensical conclusion drawn from your statements.Since you are defining abilitiy along sexual orrientation to the object. Does the woman's sexual orientation matte. Or is all about the person looking.
  16. @Pioneer1 You are welcome.
  17. It sounds like you can only judge someone's attractiveness if they are a potential sexual partner.
  18. I use numbers and words from the querent or the environment, to read the Akashic records. Glad to assist. It's what I try to do in life.
  19. Yes i am reading a book. And I'll post an idea. And then i see the same r a similar idea. Which fo me is something new. HoweverI am developing some new ways of processing information.
  20. There was a documentary on swinging. And they interviewed couples. One guy said he saw his parents at a swinging party. He said swinging just amplifies what ever is going on in your relationship. Although some like the idea of it. They are not emotionally prepared, balanced.
  21. Yeah its an evocative answer along with a great story. You are also mentioning an idea that i have been working on and of Since January. Thinking intuition and imagination are the same thing. They don't feel different, it's their use that defines them. I have thought projects and think about my thinking. Since I believe that I am a non linear conceptual intuitive thinker/empath.
  22. You say compromising positions like its a bad thing. Thats when the negotiations and deals get made. Hee hee hee. Visualise hands rubbing together.
  23. It doesn't necessarily follow that monogamy leads to a happy home life. Being polygamous is not the same as cheating. I have known and met people who have open relationships. Otn one instance the adult child was more upset than the partner. What is moral, ethical and good is another debate. I also knew a couple where the woman was a leabian. However that was more of a business situation. Plus she did use sex as a weapon. But he didn't care. I also had a coworker that said certain sex acts her partner should see a prostitute. There's what works and what works for you. They are not always the same. Interesting. Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher had an open relationship. But it broke yp when he hid one his lovers. At that point he was cheating. Its not cheating if the other person knows about your lover.
  24. I remember a friend told me i should hook up with a woman who was checking me out. He couldn't comprehend me not sleeping with her.
