Kelly Donovan replied to KaraKARMA's discussion Segregated Schools, Good or Bad?"There is nothing good about segregated schooling.
The school board is actively supporting the notion that there are certain mental/emotional qualities inherent something based on their race. Racism and racialization (institutionalized and not) is…"
Loxi replied to KaraKARMA's discussion Segregated Schools, Good or Bad?"@Johanna It has NOTHING to do with stereotypes, nor is there any way to narrow down in this short area the differences with out ending up sounding like an ass. I've never met a "stereotypical feminine guy" before, nor have I…"
"I can also see that you completely avoided my question. Nice going there."
"So isn't the reason really that you have autism? You can't communicate with people beacuse they're feminine? Does this also then aply to boys whom behave stereotypically feminine?
Tell me this, HOW do men and women think?"
Loxi replied to KaraKARMA's discussion Segregated Schools, Good or Bad?"Two separate problems. The reason it's harder for me to make friends with women and learn from female teachers is autism and social anxiety, and understanding women less than men. I can understand guys easier, even though they're…"
"Citation needed.
And even if there are, why would it make it harder for you to make friends with women? Why would you have trouble learning from a female teacher? Most people I know have close friends of both genders.
It really just seems like…"
Loxi replied to KaraKARMA's discussion Segregated Schools, Good or Bad?"Yeah, no seventies "gender constructs" ideas have been disproven, and there ARE concrete scientific differences between the male and female brain."

- THE AWESOME KIND! DFTBA!
- About Me:
- SO HEY! I'm Kara I'm incredibly immature and yeah, fairly insane. I'm really hyper and yell out random things all the time and break into song in the middle of important conversations... I was that weird kid in high school who sat in the back of every class and yelled things like "BLOOODDDD!" "PENIS!" "YOUR MOM GOES TO COLLEGE", and the famous "THAT'S WHAT SHE SAID!" After my science teacher would say something like "Once you break the jaw, the entry will be easier."
I was the kid who called all my teachers "Duuude" and would take off my shoes and SLIDE down the halls in my socks. I like to go to malls and stand on the stairs and pretend to shoot people with my GUNFINGERS as they come up. I do wax-on, wax-off in every elevator (even though I'm TERRIFIED to ride in them). I love really scary rides at amusement parks, and I cry when my best friend makes really weird faces at me. I live in Ontario Canada and because I live in Canada that means I live in an igloo, have a polar bear for a pet and hunt cute baby seals. I'm pretty lucky though, considering I'm the only kid on this side of the ice pond who has internet access. (; I KID, I KID!
I'm a nerd, for various reasons. Not only am I obsessed with book series like Harry Potter and could quote lines from both the books and the movies off by heart, but I love reading. Any type of book I will read it and love it. I write a lot too, that's basically all that I do. I do some small things for MTV Canada like talk to bands and celebs and in return i get tickets to concerts/award shows. I've had something of mine published in Elle Canada magazine before and I write for TEEN magazine as a VIT. Chances are if you go out and take a look at one right now my picture is in there. xD UHMMM, yeah. So yeah. :)
Let's talk babes!!

Your Result: Literature Nerd Does sitting by a nice cozy fire, with a cup of hot tea/chocolate, and a book you can read for hours even when your eyes grow red and dry and you look sort of scary sitting there with your insomniac appearance? Then you fit this category perfectly! You love the power of the written word and it's eloquence; and you may like to read/write poetry or novels. You contribute to the smart people of today's society, however you can probably be overly-critical of works. It's okay. I understand. | |

WHAT IS a Stereotype?
What is a stereotype exactly? Why do people even create them? Most often I'm labelled as the 'Emo girl' or the 'scene girl.' I mean, I don't mind. I really don't care much for stereotyping but it's like people judge so fast these days. Like, someone takes one look at you and automatically assumes your status, your life style, your family life, what you may or may not be going through. It's wrong, people don't even take the chance to get to know and understand you. I wear eyeliner; I had… Continue

It's crazy how fast things can change
Sooner or later everyone is going to have to grow up. It might even happen overnight, you could be acting completely different with your friends the night before, and then the next morning you’re faced with it. It just snaps in your mind how utterly pathetic and stupid you have acted in the past, you’re embarrassed with the way you may have handled some things, how you treated some people who may not have always deserved to be treated like that. But at the time it was funny, it felt right, it… Continue
