Do you think that women are worse drivers?

youless @youless (112562) • Guangzhou, China 16 Mar 12

It seems that sometimes when people know that the driver is a female, then they will think that she doesn't drive well. Is that true? Why people think that? Perhaps women can't stay calm and emotional and often make a mess when...

RBBantiles I am male but I don't think women are worse drivers than men. It all depends really on road training and driving experience. In fact I happen to think women tend to be more careful drivers than men. I have a lady friend, though, who can prove to you the exact...

RBBantiles I consider it rather funny, to blame a technology for something that concerns a relationship. Most likely, even before the social networking site was used, the marriage and the relationship was already problematic. I think blaming the social networking site is...

RBBantiles Yes, I agree. With such reading, the person doing so can be more intellectual and knowledgeable. But a lot of book reading MAY NOT make a person smarter or wiser. Smarts and wisdom need more than books. Life itself, in addition to books, in all its variety and...

Can you share some effective anti-aging secrets you have?

aubrey @averygirl72 (37845) • Philippines 14 Mar 12

Eventually all of us will get old, but I guess there are things that can somehow slows down our aging or things that can always make us look young. We need to relax sometimes and get away of too much stress so we don't age too...

RBBantiles Eating lots of vegetables, fruits, herbs and spices, especially those that are produced organically, will tone up the system and, in effect, delay the aging process.

How do you fight boredom?

ajalitus @ajalitus (127) • United States 13 Mar 12

I find that it's easy to get bored especially when your routine is repetitive. What I do is that I try new things on my free time to change up the flow. I would watch a new tv show or start trying to learn something valuable....

RBBantiles I read books and listen to music. If it does not work, I go to the public market. If it still does not work, I do some gardening or I just drop in on friends and relatives.

Would you rather be hurt by the truth and happy with a lie?

samijo719 @samijo719 (1052) • United States 13 Mar 12

RBBantiles Of course, I had rather be hurt by the truth than be happy with a lie. And I will try to keep the truthful persons by my side as friends and keep myself away from liars.

Do you believe that human beings evolved from apes?

eljayo @eljayo (1105) • Philippines 12 Mar 12

Is it okay to skip the tag this discussion?

aubrey @averygirl72 (37845) • Philippines 12 Mar 12

Before I always put tags on my response but now I see it can be skipped. What is the advantage of using tags?

tags to discussion

RBBantiles Tagging is a way of guiding the discussion and the topics and getting more people involved in the discussion. Sometimes people do not respond directly to the main subject you are discussing, but they may respond to related and collateral topics. Tagging...

With so many GMO foods out there I wonder how long before hundreds or even thousands of people will be dying because of what they contain? Even conventional farming "kills" the soil by putting chemicals that kill the bacteria,...

1 response

RBBantiles GMO foods should be labeled as such. Labeling will allow consumers to make a choice what to buy. This is also one's right to information. I think there are now a few court victories - at lower courts as yet, not at the highest, supreme or constitutional...

Instead of the farmer going to the bank for a loan. People contract to prepay for veggies. That way the farmer can know how much to grow, have a market for it, and not have to take out a loan for seeds, fertilizer, etc. It works...

RBBantiles That's great news. In Davao City, we still don't have community supported agriculture like that where you give advance payment to farmers, but organic farmers here do try to participate in markets that provide stalls for organic produce. The City, however, has...

RBBantiles I would call it a martyrdom or a self-inflicted emotional wound. I cannot really understand or sympathize with this kind of situation. Perhaps I am wrong and there may really be higher levels of emotional self-sacrifice.
