I'm interested in Female Body Building, I'm out of shape & would like to pursue this.? What would be the most inexpensive way to start.

Why is the female body so funny? MY NAME IS ASHLEY; THEREFORE, I AM FEMALE! FEMALE! FOR THE PEOPLE WHO CAN'T PAY ATTENTION! - - - Don't get me wrong -- the penis is neither sexy nor beautiful, but it does the job. It's not that I find the female body to be unattractive, but more so that it seems very non-sexual in compairison to a man's body. It's as though the female body was built for incubation while the male body was built for reproduction. The strength, sexual prowess and testosterone powerhouse that is the male body seems to greatly over-shadow the female body. Its curves, although popular among men, only remind me of young infants. Even a woman's butt looks a little like a baby's butt. And stallions, for example, are often judged by the size of their penis, while a woman's vagina is just, like, bizarre on its own. And breasts? They just seem so misplaced. You have this human figure then WHOA, two lumps of heaving fat on either side. Any thoughts are welcomed.

Why do people tend to see birth as risky versus a natural normal function of the female body? I mean you could choke at every meal you sit down to but you don't always have a CPR or Heimlich specialist sitting with you for every bite. You are more likely to die in a car wreck but people keep driving... The female body was built to carry a baby and deliver a baby. OCASSIONALLY things go wrong. But for the majority of healthy women with heathly pregnancies and babies, why do they need to see a specialist like an OB/GYN, when a midwife is just as qualified for a normal birth!??? Kimi: So, someone who sees a midwife care less about their baby???? Mom of 6: Actually that is not true. The "technologys that have advanced the outcomes for mom and baby are thus: Hand washing The ability to do a blood transfusion and Antibiotics Read Birth: A Suprising History of How We are Born by Tina Casidy I ABSOLUTLEY AGREE WITH THOSE WHO SAY IT IS PERSONAL CHOICE. The question is are you making an informed one? You can have just as good of outcome in a hospital with an OB as you do at home...But the odds are against you. I hope that everybody has good births and safe birth. But homebirth is NOT a selfish choice. K M: My argument is that OB's are a specialist...They do not just deal with pregnancy and birth they deal with womens health...cancer etc...There time is much more valuable. Most people see a primary care physician...Who can help with most anything normal...BUT IF something goes wrong THEN he refers you to a specialist...Like an Ear, Nose Throat, Oncologist, etc... A midwife is like the primary care ...They see you for normal things...If you need a specialist for a high risk pregnancy by all means see one, but why do it if you don't have to. Birth accounts for 60% of all hospital revenue...That means for normal women to have normal deliveries the cost is higher, and you pay more for health insurance...Ob's only show up to catch anyway...A midwife supports you the whole way!!! Potblack... Childbirth has never been a leading cause of death for women...I would like to see that study. Until the early 1900's c-section was a leading cause of birth deaths because they didn't have sterilized equipment or know much about anesthesia, or use it for that matter. As far as cost and c-section rates I am talking about the USA! You can read all this info in these books: *Born in the USA by Marsden Wagner, *Birth: A suprising History of How We Are Born by Tina Cassidy, *Obstetric Myth Versus Research Reality by Henci Goer, *The Thinking Woman's Guide to a Better Birth By Henci Goer, *Birthing From Within by Pam England & Rob Horowitz, *Pregnancy, Childbirth & The Newborn by Simkin Whalley and Keppler, *The VBAC Compainion by Diana Korte, *Childbirth Without Fear by Grantly Dick-Read... Yes I have read all those books and more and sited them off the top of my head. Go to Youtube and watch the trailers for these two documentaries: Pregnant In America http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R3WWNKurKjA The Business of Being Born: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DgLf8hHMgo I am not saying you cannot have good outcomes at a hospital, I realize many, many do. And YES absolutley homebirth IS NOT for everyone...I just wish people knew the facts...

Female Teenager Body Tone UP? First of all, I'm NOT trying to lose weight. I'm 14, 5'4 at 113 pounds. I know for a fact that I'm not fat, but I look like I am. I am absolutely unfit and do not have the muscles that i need. Because of that, I have fatty flabs on my stomach, thighs, and arms. Also, I have lots of fat around my face that i want to lose. I cant run for 2 min without running out of breath and feeling like death. I don't have any body building equipment such as dumbbells, and i live in a kind of ghetto neighbourhood with all the drug users around. That makes me afraid to go jogging. And i can't afford gym. What are some good exercises you can do at home without any of those devices? I can go to the nearby park to go jogging once or twice a week on weekends. Also, any eating tips? What are healthy meals or snacks that's not very fattening but also filled with protein and the needed nutrition? That's of course, delicious :P Please help. Schools coming in two weeks, and i don't want to look like I've been sitting on my arse the whole summer!

female body builders never have saggy boobs? I am a small person with huge boobs and they still look good, but but I am starting to need a lift just because they are too heavy. so this is 2 questions in 1. #1 Does anyone know of any creams, gels what ever that actually do firm and tone stretched or saggy skin? Anwser from experience only pls. And #2 everyone keeps saying that exercise wont really help very much but why do all female body builders have small or very perky boobs. I know that some of them are fake, but at some point in building up that chest muscle dosent it remove breast fat (which makes it heavy) or lift boob somewhat?

Is there a difference between 'sculpting' muscles and 'building' muscles? I am a female and I would like to 'sculpt' (make smaller and leaner) certains parts of my body and 'build' muscle (make certain parts of my body bigger like my thighs). If there is a difference what kind of fitness program do both? I go to Curves which have hydraulic machines which is suppose to 'sculpt' muscles. But I would like to build bigger thighs and butt. Of course I want to try and flatten my tummy. Like most females, I want to slenderize my arms with lean muscle not the body building muscles men get. I know I won't have big muscles men get but I would like to see if I can build my thigh and butt muscles. I am confused what resistance bands do as opposed to dead weights.

Female Workout Routine/Exercises? I'm gonna start working out again and I want to find a good regimen. Are there any websites that will build one for me? Do you know of any good routines or exercises? I am 17and don't participate in sports. I prefer to avoid cardio except for walking. I used to work out and my body builds muscle pretty quickly. I am looking to tone my entire body and build some respectable (but attractive) muscle, which I have struggled with because It is hard for me to find exercises that tone some of the more awkward muscles of the female body like the back and shoulders. I like simple exercises that I can do and know that I'm doing them right! This is very important to me! -->Also, what exercise equipment (floor mat, step-up thing, weights[what size]) should I get?

If I had worked out / ate like a female body builder would I see I bigger decrease in cellulite than if...? I just went on one of your average "eat healthy, work out 3 times a week" diets? I ask this because if I were to eat / work out like a body builder, I would lose much more fat and build a lot more muscle, and wouldn't that decrease much more cellulite? Because I don't have much to begin with, is it possible for it to completely disapear or almost disapear?

How much time does a female body need to decrease 4-5 inches from everywhere? In other words, to lose 4-5 inches (a.k.a fat) and stay at the same weight (building a bit more muscle mass) and be more healthy. -Does it differ from shorter women to taller women? (like 5'2' to 5'4' is different from 5'5 to 5'7'?) -And does it differ from body type to body type? (like a woman curvier in hips like me with a little smaller bust in inches between another with bigger bust & belly circumference in contrast with thinner hips?Or another who has equal proportions) Finally which is the best food choices for everyday for the rest of your life to keep this result and stop the yo-yo diets right after a "mistake". P.S.Exercising is good too, i know. But if a woman doesn't have the time is it still possible to lose these inches even slower? P.S.2 The "think thin" links are helpful enough?Is it really a brain thing the obesity problem?

Do gay/bisexual guys tend to have female body shapes? I'm talking like wider hips like a woman. I know that all gay guys aren't built like this, but for guys with female hips, does this mean they have more estrogen and are more likely to be gay/bi? Please no offense but I read it somewhere and just wanted to know if it was true. I didn't really mean skinny. It could be a bigger guy, but who has wideset hips like a woman. How do you know if hormones don't play a part? And it wasn't from some dumb source either. OBERON-Thx for not getting snippy with me. I wasn't trying to be funny at all here.

Madonna is close-to-granny yet she looks like someone from Body Building Magazine, your thought? http://www.celebcrust.com/pics/madonna-david-banda.jpg Well-trained is not the same thing as overly muscular in your senior years. She does not show a good example given the current obsession on female appearance. Do skimpy outfits, like she ocassionaly wears in concert, really belong on a 50 year old woman?

Gentlemen, what is your ideal female's body type? Do you go for skinny girls, ladies with curves, ladies with LOTS of curves, athletic builds, etc. I'm just curious as to what the consensus will be.

18 y.o. athletic-built female, 5'4", 40-35-41, 187 lbs and still gaining - am I obese? At the age of 10, I weighed 100 lbs. When my parents divorced and I moved to live with my Dad, I started going to the gym and built muscle mass ever since with weight lifting, cardio and swimming. I now have a weird female body-builder figure with muscles covered in fat. Last year I weighed 160 lbs. Now at 18, I weigh 187 lbs and am still gaining. My Dad tells me that genetically all his relatives are of the same build, while my Dad's bodybuilding friends tell me that I certainly don't look my weight (and I don't - I have a flat stomach, slim waist, firm butt, toned back and arms etc.), but they suggested changing my diet (Dad and I eat huge 3-course meals every day; I guess that's because we're Russian) to a "non-carbohydrate" one (I'm a sweet tooth and love gummies; for a while I was also on a junk-food diet). I've started last week and I'm seeing results already! But I want to know your opinion - am I obese? If I am, please give me advice on how I should lose weight!

Dudes! What female body type do you prefer? I just don't get why many people think that gangly, boyish looking, spindly leg, Skeletor looking models are so beautiful. That stereotypical media image of beauty causes natural women, that are built just fine, to feel like they are too fat. I personally like a woman with meat on her bones, and all her jiggly bits intact. To each his own. What type of woman do you prefer? How was I not specific dude? I asked what body type do you prefer. Unless you have never been with a woman before, so I guess you don't understand. So this is for you, o.k. ? 1.do you prefer, skinny girls 2.Average girls 3. Voluptous girls 4. Really heavy set girls 5.Short Girls 6. Tall Girls 7.Understand now????? Thank You Willy Chan (Pokemon Master) and Jennifer G, I see unlike that other girl who called me a pig, you understand that I was actually defending the natural body shape of real women who are self concious about their weight because of the media and the images rail thin unrealistic models. Excellent pic np1415. Now that's what I'm talkin' bout Willis!! I agree Dan. Working out and being healthy is important. Being athletically thin and being anorexic are 2 different things.

I'm adopting a stray cat, I'd like to know about how much the vacines would cost to make him safe for my cat. Smudgeon, the cat that is a stray, has obviously had a previous family. He does not get testy with other cats, they all love him because he is a large male, very muscular but he is not territorial at all. i have never seen him hiss or get angry at all, just a happy cat. I have no concerns about him getting along with my cat, since they have already met and took quite a liking to each other ( quite the little couple, my little pure white with black spots long haired tiny female with big, body-building big-head smudgeon :] ) anyway, my main concern is the money for all the proper vaccinations. What are these vaccines and how much approx. will they cost? thank you.

Is it normal to date a guy with a female muscle fetish? I just started dating a guy with a huge female body builder fetish. He mentioned on one of our first dates, that he's into women bodybuilders, and would actually stay home from school as a child to watch the women's bodybuilding championships. Now that we've become exclusive, He's mentioned to me that he would like to see me with more of a muscular build. I happen to think women bodybuilders look too much like men, and I'd like to maintain my feminine body. Should I attempt to add a "little" bit of muscle to my shape and make him happy? Or should I just tell him to hit the road cuz I'm not changing? Confused

Will extra muscle really speed up my metabolism enough to help me lose a significant amount of fat? Since an extra pound of muscle only burns 30-50 extra calories, will a few extra pounds of muscle really speed up my metabolism enough to help me lose a significant amount of fat? I am female and my body does not build muscle easily.

I want to be a runner, where do I start? I am 29 and in good health, body fat 16%, stocky (thick) build, female, 5'2" tall, 135 lbs. Currently do min 20 min, max 40 min on my ellipticle machine 6 days per week (depends on time constraints for the day). I would like to become a jogger and possibly enter some long distance races later. How do I start? Will my stocky build slow me down?

Is my body fat % unhealthy? I got a body composition assessment done the other day and I am wondering if someone can help me out with the results. I am female, 5'4", 127.4lbs, bmi 21.9, fat % 15.9, fat mass 20.21lbs, FFM 107.21lbs, TBW 78.41lbs. I don't know what the last two readings are. I did not do anything out of the ordinary before the test and I only drank 1 glass of water in the morning about 2 hours before the test. The issue is that the person who conducted the test (on one of those machines with electrical charge) said that my body fat is too low. This does not make sense to me since I do not look emaciated or anything and in fact, I have some serious poochy, soft, wobbly, flab around my tummy, under arms and inner thighs. I'm not exaggerating. I have been working out consistently about 3 x per week for the past 8 mths, cardio and strength training. Before that I was fairly active. I would say I have a fair amount of muscle on my body, particularly on my legs. I have seen many healthy fat % charts on line, and they categorize "athletes" differently than the average person in terms of healthy levels of body fat. Who would be considered an athlete? I wouldn't consider myself an athlete, but if on the charts I would be categorized that way, I'm within the healthy range. What about the super flabby bits? Considering the amount of fat there is on my body it seems impossible that I have low body fat! Another thing is that even if I maintain my 20lbs of body fat and do not lose any more, I will inevitably gain muscle because of my strength training. This will cause the fat percentage in relation to muscle to become even lower. I really don't want to have to put on more fat for each pound of muscle I put on. Can someone help me sort through all of this? I want to be in great athletic shape and I enjoy body building. I don't want to damage myself .. can any of you experts give me some info that would help me continue to train with some peace of mind? Thanks a lot!!!!!!!!! I really appreciate your help! I wanted to add: the gym employee who conducted the test was not a personal trainer and therefore was not able to give me any information about this. She just indicated that according to the chart she was given, my body fat % is too low.

Is there any non-meat product that contains vitamin b12,....I also want to body build? Hello. Why is it so hard to be vegetarian when i need protein and vitamin b12? I dont want to sound like a traitor. But i ate meat today. Beef. Ive been trying to pull it off and it worked for at least 4 weeks. Ive eaten nothing but tofu,salads,beans,nuts, fruit. I saw a nutrientist about a day ago and she said my body was lacking it...........and leads to stress. Oh yeah, i heard that anything that has soy has female estrogen...........and you start growing boobs...........IM A FREAKING MALE. The reason im pressuring this protien thing is that i want to body-build and be healthy. My blood type is O postive. I dont know what to do.....and everytime i eat an animal i feel ashamed. I dont know what to do. Its hard. Especially when you have a family that takes you out to eat almost everyday. my nutrienist tells me that is necessary for me to eat meat...........

Psycology of being an ectomorph body type? I recently learned about ectomorphs and saw that i was one. Then i read the way ectomorphs act and there mooods and it fitted exactly why do you think this is? Ectomorphic body type -- The physique of an ectomorph is centered around the brain and nerves. These people are slim and possibly underweight, and will often have a hard time gaining weight and building muscle mass (in our modern times, with the emphasis on physical fitness and muscularity, this has given rise to the notion of the "hardgainer" training methodologies which do have anecdotal evidence that the physiology responds to different training but can be overcome). Stereotype: the ectomorphic person is likely to have a cerebrotonic temperament and could be described as artistic, sensitive, apprehensive, introverted, socially restrained, and highly self-aware. Examples of ectomorphs would be marathon runners, fencers, swimmers, some basketball players, and female fashion models.

Is this a good workout routine for a 13 year old female? I began working out a few weeks ago to build my stomach muscles so when I wear a bathing suit this summer, my stomach isn't just "hanging there". I'm not overweight, I'm just not "muscly". Is this a good stomach muscle building routine? 10 crunches 40 of these leg lifting excersizes where you lift your legs and bring them to your chest 15 "lean and bends" (you sit on the floor with your knees bent infront of you and lean back, twisting your upper body as you go down. Then you use your side muscles to pull your body up.) 10 more crunches Anything I should add? Is this good?

Is it possible to go from a buff to lean body type? Hi, I'm a 20 y.o. female and I've always had an athletic and built body type. I have strong core muscles and run/cycle long distances very regularly, but with my calves, thighs, and glutes so big, it seems like my body type is more built for power-based sports like softball or martial arts. I really want to have a lean body and decrease the size of my lower body especially, but I simply do not know how to decrease the size of muscles -- especially when I currently run three times per week at 8:15 min/mile pace for ~4 miles and the size of my legs and glutes has not changed at all. Does anyone have any ideas for me, or is it simply not possible? Thanks!! Fyi, I'm 5' 6.5" and 150 lbs., and my body fat % is pretty low.

Why is the female body so funny? Don't get me wrong -- the penis is neither sexy nor beautiful, but it does the job. It's not that I find the female body to be unattractive, but more so that it seems very non-sexual in compairison to a man's body. It's as though the female body was built for incubation while the male body was built for reproduction. The strength, sexual prowess and testosterone powerhouse that is the male body seems to greatly over-shadow the female body. Its curves, although popular among men, only remind me of young infants. Even a woman's butt looks a little like a baby's butt. And stallions, for example, are often judged by the size of their penis, while a woman's vagina is just, like, bizarre on its own. And breasts? They just seem so misplaced. You have this human figure then WHOA, two lumps of heaving fat on either side. Any thoughts are welcomed. Wow, Mr. "filippino" -- this sure did bother you as you returned to edit your answer and bash the male body profusely. No matter at what angle you look at it, there will still be male competition for you out there, and us women love them. Learn to live with it! It's alright, filippino. I'm used to people assuming that because I speak with coherence and intelligence online, I must be a man. It's okay that you thought such a lack of stupidity SURELY couldn't come from a woman. ;) About the male body seeming utilitarian -- in effect, it is. But that is why I find it so attractive. Women love men right diwn to their feet. A man's muscular and skeletal structures are what makes him physically attractive. And I've yet to meet many women who actually think body hair on men is unattractive.

I've had Body aches for 6 days. Does any one know what this might be? I am a 35 year old female who exercises regularly. Six days ago I spend the whole day (a few days actually) painting and building a patio (my body is accustomed to hard work though). I have seasonal allergies. It was windy and my allergies were definately stirred up. I didn't stop for lunch that day and by that evening my body was achie and I had a headache. I simply thought I worked hard and needed some rest and food. I ate a good dinner, took some ibuprophen and went to bed. If I'm on ibuprophen I'm ok. As soon as the ibprophen wears off the aches return. It has been 6 days now. ( I do have a slight thightness in my chest. When I take a deep breath it makes me cough slightly) Can anyone tell me what this might be?

Serious/Experienced Lifters & Body Builders Only Please? I'm a female trying to lose body fat to get even more cut in the next 6 weeks. I currently have clear definition but there is still bodt fat around my arms and thighs thats tough to lose. My build is that of a bikini model- not into the figure model manly look, but still want to decrease body fat considerably. Can anyone look at what I'm doing and offer advice? Daily Regimen: Run 3 miles, walk 6 miles, lift hard 2 hours (alternating lower body one day, upper body next day), 32g Protein in Muscle Milk before bed, NO Explode before lifting, Glutamine and Optimum Whey shake post-lifting, Lipo 6 in morning, Universal Animal Cuts in afternoon, Green Tea Extract, Multivitamin, and a lean protein-rich diet. Every 3 days I also: Swim for 30 mins or alternate with 30 mins HIIT at 15% incline on treadmill. I also ride horseback every few days. Anything else I can do to really lose this last bit of fat? I'm 5'6'', 26 y/o, 130 lbs, Size 4, with noticeable definition all over. Typical Daily Diet: - 2 eggs - 2 Lipo 6 Pills - 1 Serving Protein Rich Greek Yogurt w/Honey - Animal Cuts (1 pack) - 2 Green Tea Extract PIlls - 1 Chromium Picolinate - NO Explode (2 scoops in water) -1 each: SF Redbull,. Vitamin Water & Gatorade - Water all day (tons of it) -- Whey Shake (2 scoops in soy milk) - 5 g Glutamine - 8 oz lean ground beef (i hate chicken) -8 oz Kefir -1/2 Tomato -1 Whole Wheat Tortilla -1 Slice Provolone -Muscle Milk (2 scoops in Soy Milk) -MulitVitamin, Fish Oil, Calcium, Vit. E I also don't eat after 7pm and always do some form of cardio post-eating, except my muscle milk and vitamins I take before bed. When lifting lower body I do 2 sets of 8 at my max or to failure. When upper body I do 3 sets of 15. I do 2 hours total because I just cant seem to do every muscle how I like it in less time. I also alternate with my spotter/workout partner so that takes up more time between sets. I end every workout each day with pushups and situps to failure as well. My cardio is split up throughout the day: 3 mile run in morning, 3 mile walk in afternoon, 3 mile walk at night. Any additional stuff (HIIT, Swimming, etc, is done at night). I also don't really take a day off... but my body is up to it~! I'm not tired, muscles sore yes, but not in pain as far as my bones/joints.

I have a male and female betta would like to know some more about breeding? I have a male and female betta I have conditioned them both for 2 weeks. The male has built his bubble nest. The female has eggs and vertical lines on her body. I have them in the same tank now. The male chases her and flares at her and she just swims away or hides in the plants or sits on the bottom of the tank. He has nipped at her but she has no damage and is pretty quick so he has trouble getting near her, so I am not worried about her being hurt yet. I just want to know if she would be acting like this if she is ready or if I should take her out and wait longer. This is my first time breeding bettas and I have researched it, I just want to make sure I do everything right? What do u guys think what do u mean they can't recognize sex. and what makes u say that? thank you for your answer. I have looked at the website you have at the bottom of your post. I do have food ready to go. I am keeping a good eye on the fish. I just wanted to know if it was normal for the female to seem like she is not interested Ok first of all thank you everybody for your answers it is very helpful. I have put my male in a separate tank, just overnight I have heard you shouldn't leave them alone and I don't want any damage to them. I noticed the female is exploring the tank now so I am hoping she will begin to feel more comfortable. Everyone says how you need to research bredding bettas heaps before u even try and I just worry I don't know enough and will do it all wrong. Is it wrong to take the male out and then put himback in the next day?

Ladies please answer? Ok I'm 19 years old, 6'2" tall, I use to weigh 320 pounds, and now I'm 239 pounds and want to lose 30 more. I'm starting to get into body building. I never had any female attention in high school and early in college, and now I'm starting to get attention, but my self-confidence is still low when it was when I was heavier. I think it's because I got stretch marks from losing that weight and I'm scared how people will react when they see them. Also, my mom when I was younger always use to put me down for being overweight, so Idk I'm trying to over come this. Ladies do you think I'm at least a decent looking guy? Please be honest: http://img372.imageshack.us/img372/2186/n5618395924055328214bk2.jpg

Will my body type determine my size? At 5ft 8ins I am considered "large" build (am female). I am trying to lose at leat 70lbs but am wondering if I am setting my sights too high thinking I will end up at least a UK size 12. When I was a child (although I was quite fit - I was even in an athletic team for a while), I was big and went from childrens wear straight into a size fourteen. Wearing a UK size 12 comfortably is a dream I don't think is possible. What are your comments on this?

Why is eating very few calories not good? I need to lose weight. My doctor seemed very insensitive and said that losing weight is easy math. Cut calories and exercise. I have been told that cutting down to too many calories will not make you lose weight. Who is right here? If my doc is right and it's simple math, then why is cutting down to as few calories as you can a bad thing. Seems to me if it's just calories in/calories out then that would be the fastest route to success. Any dieticians here? I am 25 years old, 5'7" tall and 375 lb female. I have a large body build and a family full of obese people. I believe it to be a combo of bad genes/bad eating habits passed down from generation to generation. I have a daughter with my same bad genes (7 years old) and I do not want to give her this problem.

I work out 5 x a week doing cardio and weight training (body pump) but I am getting big and don't want to. I am female - 5'3", 119 lbs. My regimen is : monday - running 2.5 miles on treadmill and 30 minutes of stairclimbing. - about 60 min of cardio tuesday - group power class (like body pump - choreographed barbell program - with light weights/bar) and 30 minutes of cardio. wednesday - spin class 60 min or monday cardio thurs - group power class, 30 min cardio like running or treadclimber (hiking simulator) friday - spin class 60 min. For years, all I did was running, I was approximately the same weight. Then I decided to make my work out more well rounded so I added the barbell class. After 2 months of that class, I KNOW that my legs are getting bigger from muscle. I don't want this. My jeans are tighter in the butt and thigh and calf area. Can anyone help? Am i doing too much lower body work? I didn't think cardio like spin or running would build bulk , but SOMETHING IS BUILDING BULK! I want to be TONED not bigger. Should i cut out spin or stairs and keep weights? help.

Help me! my love for a female? im born as a girl.in an Indian family.during my childhood,parents used to fight and i grew up hating my dad,when my mum was pregnant with me.she thought i would be a baby boy,.she wished so.but i was born as girl.and i resembled my dad.when i was kid, she used to dress me like a boy and i tend to play with boys games.now that i have grown, I don’t exhibit any feminism..im always dressed in jeans and tee.. i do have feminine voice etc.im tall and big built. i often feel im a guy trapped in a girl’s body.i like sportive and man clothing, but don’t dare to buy or wear them.my mum scolds me often, saying i don’t behave like a girl. I don’t do house chores like an Indian girl should.true, I don’t do it.im excellent in studies, but i hate house chores.it angers me when i see there are a lot of rape cases etc.i hate men for that reason that they abuse women. i feel women should be protected.at the same time, I always feel i should have been born as a guy.im certain that if i were guy would be a good one. i recently developed some feelings for a girl..whom,im falling with everyday. we are good frens and she is in love with my guy fren..but they separated. later she had another boyfren,whom she hid frm me..and even had physical things like french kiss etc,with him..but they broke up,due to unknown reasons. she wud chat wit me everyday n tell me things. she has some probs at home, therefore i often be her shoulder to cry on. but most of the times she hides her feels and suffers alone. i feel a lot for her n i often confront her to tell me things hoping i could provide with some comfort.she recently told me that she was molested by a relative when she was 4.i felt sorry.i buy her things that she needs and spare my cash. but i know she won’t want a relationship with me. or be with me. i know that because female-female love is unacceptable in the Asians society. i don’t think he loves me as much i do.. she often scolds me, but these few days, she said she has learned to appreciate my presence in her life. and she said she would be good with me. im not sure whats her term of "good" but i have a strong desire to spend the rest of my life wit her.i have told her that i love her. but no response. she just accepted the sms.. she asked me to live for my beliefs and values. while im persistent to live for her? im hating life. I really wish im a guy. I can propose, marry her and keep her happy..

Changing body questions? I am an 18 year old Female and over the past 3 months i went from a small B cup to a very full C almost small D. I know i'm not pregnant, and i don't know of any other reason why my body would change so quickly, I'm only 5 ft 6 and 110 pounds ( skinny build...believe me... i eat!), so i never expected to get this big. Also does anyone know of anyone who makes 32 C cup bras, the smallest i can find is a 34 and the back keeps sliding up!

If I am 195lbs 5'8" and a 51 year old female on a diet. This is my question as i'm a little confused. I know my BMR is 1800, my usual day, I burn roughly 1152, doing chores etc and climbing stairs etc..I'm eating around 1000-1200 or so calories, low sodium etc..medium build and 27.5% body fat i'm trying to shed 55 pounds. For the last 2 weeks i'm losing 2 pounds each week, now i have a back disability, don't work, so if i'm burning as much as i'm eating but my body needs 18600 calories how am i able to lose 2 pounds a week. It takes 3500 calories less to lose 1 pound. Could someone please explain this to me and i drink lots of water too. The guide says I need 1860 calories to remain at same weight but they also say if you eat 1800 and burn 1800 calories you lose or gain nothing so this is why i'm confused??? Also I'm 46-42-40 and don't drink or smoke, blood pressure is getting better and i try to avoid salt, i like moderation. So as i stated the guide says i need 1860 for my body to function, I eat 1000 calories a day and burn around the same. Those are the facts!! Any answers

i know its very long but it was allllllll good, so what do you think? Men vs. Women Men and women are not alike. Sure, you thought you already knew that. But now we have conculsive proof! After countless hours of surveys and studies on the following topics, these facts have emerged: RELATIONSHIPS: First, a man does not call a relationshipo a relationship - he refers to it as "that time when me and Suzie were boinking on a semi-regular basis." When a relationship ends, a woman will cry and pour her heart out to her girlfriends, and she will write a poem titled "All Men Are Idiots." Then she will get on with her life. A man has a little more trouble letting go. Six months after the breakup - at 3 am early on a Sunday morning - he will call and say "I just wanted you to let you know you ruined my life, and I'll never forgive you, and I hate you, and you're a total floozy. But I want you to know there's always a chance for us." This is known as the "I Hate You/I Love You" drunken phone call, that 99% of all men have made at least once. There are community colleges that offer courses to help men get over this need; alas these classes rarely prove effective. SEX: Women prefer 30-45 minutes of foreplay. Men prefer 30-45 seconds of foreplay. Men consider driving back to her place as part of the foreplay. MATURITY: Women mature much faster than men. Most 17-year-old females can function as adults. Most 17-year-old males are still trading baseball cards and giving each other wedgies after gym class. This is why high school romances rarely work out. HATS: Women look good in hats; men look like dinks. HANDWRITING: To their credit, men do not decorate their penmanship. They just chicken-scratch. Women use scented, colored stationery and they dot their "i's" with circles and hearts. Women use ridiculously large loops in their "p's" and "g's." It is a royal pain to read a note from a woman. Even when she's dumping you, she'll put a smiley face at the end of the note. BATHROOMS: A man has at most six items in his bathroom - a toothbrush, toothpaste, shaving crewam, razor, a bar of soap, and a towel from the Holiday Inn. The average number of items in a typical woman's bathroom is 437. A man would not be able to identify most of these items. MAGAZINES: Men's magazines often feature pictures of naked women. Women's magazines also feature pictures of naked women. This is because the female body is a beautiful work of art, while the male body is hairy and lumpy and should not be seen by the light of day. GOING OUT: When a man says he's ready to go out, it means he's ready to go out. When a woman says she's ready to go out, it means that she WILL be ready to go out, as soon as she finds her other earring, finishes putting on her makeup... LEG WARMERS: Leg warmers are sexy. A woman, even if she's walking the dog or doing the dishes, is allowed to wear leg warmers. She can wear them any time she wants. A man can only ear leg warmers if he is auditioning for the "Gimme the Ball" number in "A Chorus Line." CATS: Women love cats. Men say they love cats, but when women aren't looking, men kick cats. MIRRORS: Men are vain; they will check themselves out in the mirror. Women are ridiculous; they will check out their reflections in any shiny surface - mirrors, spoons, store windows, toasters, Joe Garagiola's head... GARAGES: Women use garages to parke their cars and to store their lawnmowers. Men use garages for many things. They hang license plates in garages, they watch TV in garages, and they build useless wooden things in garages. MOVIES: For women, their favorite movie scene is when Clark Gable kisses Vivien Leigh for the first time in "Gone With The Wind." For men, it's when Jimmy Cagney shoves a grapefruit in Mae Clark's face in "Public Enemy." JEWELRY: Women look nice when they wear jewelry. A man can get away with wearing one ring, and that's it. Any more than that, and he will look like a lounge singer named Vic. MENOPAUSE: When a woman reaches menopause, she goes through a variety of complicated emotional, psychological, and biological changes. The nature and degree of the changes varies with the individual. Menopause in a man provokes a uniform reaction. He buys aviator glasses, a snazzy French cap and leather driving gloves, and goes shopping for an expensive foreign sports car. LOW BLOWS: Let's say a man and a woman are watching a boxing match on television, and one of the fighters is felled by a low blow. The woman says "Oh, gee, that must hurt." The man doubles over and actually feels pain. ADMITTING MISTAKES: Women will sometimes admit making a mistake. The last man who admitted that he was wrong was Gen. George Custer. RICHARD GERE: Women like Richard Gere because he is sexy in a dangerous way. Men hate Richard Gere because he reminds them of that slick guy who works out at the health club and dates only married women. NUDITY IN MOVIES: Every actress in the history of movies has had to do a nude scene. This is because every movie in the history of movies has been produced by men. The only actor who has ever appeard nude in the movies is Richard Gere. This is another reason why men hate him. DAVID LETTERMAN: Men think David Letterman is the funniest man on the face of the earth. Women think he is a mean, semi-dorky guy who always has a bad haircut. LOCKER ROOMS: In the locker room, men talk about three things: money, football, and women. They exaggerate about money, they don't know football nearly as well as they think they do, and they fabricate stories about women. Women talk about one thing in the locker room - sex. Not in abstract terms, either. They're graphic and technical, and they *never* lie. LAUNDRY: Women do laundry every couple of days. A man will wear every article of clothing he owns, including his surgical pants that were hip about eight years ago, before he will do his laundry. When he is finally out of clothes, he will wear a dirty sweatshirt inside out, rent a U-Haul and take his mountain of clothes to the laundromat, and expect to meet a beautiful woman while he is there. WEDDINGS: When reminiscing about weddings, women talk about the "ceremony." Men talk about "the bachelor party." SOCKS: Men wear sensible socks. They wear standard white sweatsocks. Women wear strange socks. They are cut way below the ankles, have pictures of clouds on them, and have a big fuzzy ball on the back. PLANTS: A woman will ask a man to water her plants while she is on vacation. The man will water the plants. The woman returns five days later, to an apartment full of dead plants. No one knows why this happens. MUSTACHES: Some men look good with mustaches: Tom Selleck and Burt Reynolds. There are no women who look good with mustaches. NICKNAMES: With the exception of female body-builders, who call each other names like "Ultimate Pecs" and "Big Turk," women eschew the use of nicknames. If Gloria, Suzanne, Deborah and Michelle get together for lunch, they will call each other Gloria, Suzanne, Deborah and Michelle. But if Mike, Dave and Jack go out for a brewski, they will affectionately refer to each other as Bullet-Head, Peanut-Brain, and Useless.

manhood and selfishness? well it is a serious question. it is said men are basically, by nature selfish. that is why life calls for consistent competion for survival. all economic, political and social systems are built on this assumption. well, i think one reason for men to acquire this nature was to believe that a man can use his body to take/achieve pleasure only, and that his own body is not to be let for pleasure for others. while a woman's body is thought to be the point of leisure. man taste every inch of the female body, while don't let the same done to his own body.is it the breeding point of ego, selfishness? (i hate gayism

Why did Darwin teach human female Inferiority? (dare you 2 read the whole Thing)?

Too Skinny? I'm a 13 year old girl, 5' 1", 95 pounds, 22 inch waist and 32 inch hips. It's nearing the end of track season now (i'm a long/middle distance track runner and a cross country runner), and I never noticed how skinny I was before. I'm starting to run 30 miles a week in order to build my base for XC season in the fall, and i've got a resting heart rate of 48 bpm. I was just wondering whether I'm too skinny to be healthy, I feel perfectly fine all the time, but I have a stomach like one of those female body builders with 2% body fat on steroids...help?

Would I be appealing to guys? I'm just wondering what the few people who will respond to this have to say. Don't really care otherwise. Anyway.. I'm almost 17, 5'3 on a good day, proportional in height/weight/build. Physically, I'm pretty. Mentally, I'm beautiful. I'm not egotistical but I am self-confident. I'm rather quiet, relaxed, and fun-loving. I smile 99% of the time, I'm very sincere, and I love joking, happiness, laughter, etcetera. I like writing/drawing/electronics. I don't like guys-on-guys but girls-on-girls can be hot. :D I like videogames and gore-filled movies. I like guns,shooting,etcetera, but not war/hunting. I HATE DRUGS. I don't like shopping or stupid chit-chat about boys and how cute they are. Basically, I'm a guy in a nice-looking female body, with an extremely optimistic personality. On the down-side, I get jealous very easily and can be impatient as hell. Nothing's outstandingly wrong with me. I'm pansexual and run on an individual basis. Gender/age/race/etc doesn't matter. Love is it. C: I don't want to do online dating, for whoever said anything. I don't care if you think you'd want to date me--while that's nice, it's not my style. We could be friends. And pan is a root word meaning everything.. basically, I like anyone and everything regardless of what they are but for who they are. Like I said, love is it, right? Also, no, I'm not ditzy and no, I'm not gross. C:

Why is my body not flexible (although I've been stretching EVERY DAY since I was a kid)? I am female, average height and weight, 32. I work out 5 days a week (cardio, weights, abs, and of course, stretch to warm up and cool down). I have been doing this for at least 10 years. Growing up, I did gymnastics and ballet, from age 4-18. I was terrible at those activities, though, because I could never lift up my leg, do the splits, or touch my toes. I work at it every morning - stretch to the limit of pain and beyond. I don't think I'll ever reach my toes, either standing or sitting. What am I doing wrong? Didn't I start building flexibility early enough in life? Thank you.

ladies ONLY, please educate me, girls. my girlfriend says that the part of my body she likes best is my butt. this isnt the first time ive heard females make this comment, and it confuses me cuz i thot that girls always noticed a guys pecs and biceps first. and some girls even say its a smile or eyes they focus on. what is it with the butt? i dont get it? is this what the rest of you think too? i thot i understood what women found attractive in men, but maybe i dont.when i ask her what it is about my ass that she likes she just says cuz its so gorgeous. help me ladies. should we guys quit worrying about the gym and just start building our butts? and how would we do it? im mixed up cuz almost all her girlfriends say the same thing.

Feminism is an exercise in futility? It appears so, based on the plain fact that males and females of our species are not the same physically, emotionally or intellectually. Physically: - Males are build for competition with other males, protecting their claims and hunting prey to feed dependents. i) larger shoulders to allow for greater upper body strength ii) thicker skin on the hands and feet for more abuse of ones body iii) stronger core muscles for deadlifting objects - Females are build for birthing and caring for offspring, as well as gathering foods to feed supplement/cache. i) broad, shallow hips to better distribute the load of the offspring, allow for birthing of offspring with above average cranium size. ii) greater long term memory to remember successful foraging sites, as well as, noting which fruits are eatible and which are not. iii) higher pain threshold for birthing above average sized offspring (relative to other primates/great apes). Emotionally: - Male attack problems or faults in a detached manner; when a male fails, he does not turn in on himself asking what is wrong with him, he asks what is wrong with the previous solution. This lends to inability to accept blame, however, solutions tend to be found sooner than other methods. - Women attack problems in a methodical approach, and if faced with failure, view said failure as a flaw in their character or ability. Accepting blame and empathizing with other females creates bonds stronger than those between males. Intellectually: - Males excel at spacial and innovation problem solving, creating a solution from nothing, or seeing a solution pre-implimentation. Lends to a desire to use and make tools for mundane tasks, though not excusively a male trait. - Females excel at organizational and method based problems, lending to an organised thought pattern that allows them to store otherwise overlooked details for future reference. *** For those who've already responded, you may wish to let me finish *** Overall statement: Men and women are not equals in nature, we will not have the same needs laided out by civil, legal and moral rights. As such, complete equality will never, ever work. There will always be instances where the man will be of greater value when compared to the woman, and vice versa. One cannot interchange the two sexes in all things, thus, equality is unobtainable. Rio seems to have come as close to an answer as any here. As an aside, a persons worth is based on their biology, traits and talents. No one can argue that a medical doctor is worth less than a high school dropout, in the overall. The inverse is true, however, as the doctor provides the community an invaluable service, while the high school dropouts are ultimately disposable.

When I suddenly stand up from lying down or sitting, why do I get darkening of eyesight for a few seconds? Along with darkening, I also feel like thousands of ants running all over my face. Only after a few seconds of standing still with closed eyes, I am able to move. This is there since my childhood. The blood test says I don't have any abnormal size of blood cells, but my RBC count equals female-values. May be I was on iron medication so the problem wouldn't show up immediately in tests. But my iron levels keep coming down after rising. I have felt most healthy and most fresh and energetic, and also free of the above symptoms, when I had the most RBC and haemoglobin count. I also feel completely fatigued the whole day, and have light-headedness all the time. I feel colder than others. Doctors say the RBC count has to be too low for any kind of anaemia to be present. But I want to disagree. This situation is preventing me from building my body (LOL!), as also from numerous other tasks. Thank you.

Homosexuality? 1rst of all homosexuals arent evil. Bad people are evil. You dont have to be gay to be a bad person. You should try to not mistreat others based on bias as well are humans even the religious intolarent ignorant types. homosexually is not natural, but even if it were natura thatl doesnt mean its healthy. I mean aids is all natural yet aids is not healthy to have is it? being overweight can be considered natural but that doesnt mean its healthy is it? runing away from problems / fear is natural but that doesnt mean its healthyl is it? The whole point of a species is to reproduce and make offfspring in order to survive. Homosexuality confuses people on this and makes them forget there biological purpose is to spread thespecies and keep reproducing. homosexuality can also confuse children, family roles and some how people actually get confused thinking they were made to be the a man if they are a women or a women if they are a man. even though nature intended them to born a man and a women and theres no defects in being a man or a women. Nothing wrong or unhealthy. learn to accept the way you are made. I mean look at micheal jackson. he tried to become more caucasian looking even with the extra laser surgery and look how he turned out. Didnt come out so good did it. .Also what about when gay men go to bathrooms in public. They seperated female and male bathrooms never because it was to help prevent sexual molestation and rapes. But if gays like the same sex then how would you prevent them from sexually molesting each other in public bathrooms places. thought about that have you? Homosexuality would also conflict with many traditional beliefs and cultures. Hetro sexuality helps a nations population grow to produce more people and workers for the nation. What would happen if too many went to homo sexuality and they werent enough straight people to reproduce? would that mean we would have to buy our new offsrping from other countries? just like how we go into debt buying things from other countries like china for instance or japan. Tell me how homosexuality will help benifit a nation over hetrosexuality and then i might accept the idea more. Homosexuals can always become straight if they wish too so they can benifit the nation even better. I dont mistreat gay people because they are human beings 1rst and homosexuals second. but i just severely disagree with the idea of homosexuality. i just dont understand what would homosexuality do to help benifit the human specie. gay people can always change if they want and be straight. People where biologically made to be staright and theres no bad consequences of being straight. Why wont people accept being straight? Diversity in sexual peference doesnt benifit anything either because it wont help benifit the survival of the human species. Homosexuality also wont help promote creativity and education. Maybe homosecuals because people help promote creativity and education. But homosexuality doesnt. Also there is no such thing as being gay in human beings biological because i had gay friends that turned straight before and they are straight people that turn gay. So it is a choice, not biological. If it where biological in humans then that would mean you would have been gentically made to be gay. Also there is no proof that homosexuality in humans is gentic related because they are many cases where gay people had children naturally and there off sping dont come out gay alot of times. To blame choices/decisions on gentics sounds like they are scared to admit to people that they can change and choose to be homosexual. Also phyisical characteristics and race is not the same as sexual pefernces. because theres hoomosexuality in all different types of people. Homosexuality is an idea and choice in human beings. Not a gentic biological thing in human beings. it could be that animals also do homosexual acts because they enjoy it also and not because there bodies are built for homosexuality. Because All species are perform asexual reproduction and/or sexual reproduction to survive. Asexual is when it duplicates itself witout having sex with other life form. Sexual is with sex with another life form of a oppisite sex to reproduce and in fact help reproduce with more diversity. So the mix of different races is supported by hetrosexual acts not homosexual acts. Straight sex benifited the diversity of race.So our biological purpose infact is to help promote diversity so that they will be enough different types of humans to ensure that at least one type of human can be adapt to future changes and perserve the human specie. Homosexuality doesnt contribute anything in genetics, survival and culture. Morales contribute to culture, culture contributes to education, and education contributes to creativity as well as knowledge but not homosexuality. If a whole species turned out to be gay then how would the species carry on and reproduce? I dont hate homosexuals i just wish the changed there sexual peference the way nature intended it to be. I dont think its good to againts the natural cycle of how the human specie was able to keep its existince. Theres no defects in beings being hetrosexual so why wont some people accept it? i mean every person is genetically built to be hetrosexual anyways and it is they way that human kind was able to pass live on and make offspring. What if a person had a mutation to be aids resistance or even aids proof. Then the person turned out to be gay and never had a child. The new genes that could have helped the human race benifit againts health problems would be completly gone already.homosexuality slows down the process of evolution and does not benifit us biologicly in anyway either. Im not trying to be harsh or anything but why do people choose to ignore these basic common sense facts? Also like i said i dont hate gay people because they are human beings 1rst and homosexuals second. But why do they choose to ignore these facts. Is it because they take there personal pleasure more important then the potential future consequences wether they go un noticed or noticed? A bad experience? where they around a gay enviorment or influence when growing up? what is it? did they actually brainwash themselves to belive they were born gay? did media brainwash them to think they where born gay and cant change it? i have gay friends who turned straigt and they are straight men who turn gay. why dont people choose to ignore these things? Also natural is what natural is. look it up to find out what it means if your not sure. Also i dont believe theres no such thing as "normal people" because people are all unique in there own way. "Normal people" goes againts the fact that all people are unque and different from each other. People might just be a little more unique then others and stand out more wether they be gay or not. so to say im judging gays as not "normal" is just you prejudging me and what i think. Also homosexuality wouldnt help benifit the world from over populating. Personal responsibility would. You can have alot of homosexuals but if theres still straight people having like 10 kids per family the world will probably still be over populated. People need to take personal responibility, get eduacted even if it means having to find this knowlede for yourself. And becareful on having kids. You can have sex and not have kids. Thats why they invented condems and birth control and stuff. Homosexuality wouldnt do anything because it wouldnt change the fact that people are still irresonsible about sex and the consequences of having kids. Even if get pregnant you can have abortions and if you let your religion prevent you from having an aborion because you may not be ready for such a task financially and just the know hows then thats your fault. Dont let tradition block you from being able to adapt and live better off in the world. Things change and tradition tends to stay the same alot. In order to sruvive and adapt to obsticles and situations you need to be felxible and being too tradtional will not allow you the flexibility to be. Also dont listen to those religious guys. They take things too literal. the bible is just a symbolic way to represent the evil and good in all creatures God and the devil . They take artistic writing, metaphores, and similies too literal and forget that the stories arent important. The lessons behind the stories are. what do you guys think about homosexuality whats your opnion about. I dont treat homosexuals bad because they are humans like I said but why wont they admit they can change and that they are not born gay. I have know people that wher egay and turned straight. Theres straight people who turn gay. This is a choice not genetics. Theres cases when gay people had kids for whatever reason and there kids dont become gay. What is wrong with being straight why cant you accept that your made literally to be hetrosexual. Theres no defects in being hetrosexual. ... some of you people havent even read what i wrote carefully.. READ THE WHOLE THING IF YOUR GUNNA CRITICISE ME! and that was a copy and past eoff my own opnions about homosexuality so i dont see why you are concerned about me copying and pasting off my own thoughts and writing. Its not like im playjerizing My question is what do you guys think about homosexuality, i just wanted to show you guys my perspective on it also. people choose who they want to have sex with so they choose if they gunna have homosexual sex( sex with a same sex) or hetrosexual sex ( 2 oppisite sex partners have sex). Them being actracted to certain people have to do with how they think and what they value. Things dont just happen for no reason. Also about the stds, obviously the majority of the world is hetrosexual and not homosexual. So obviously that would be like comparing 16 hetrosexuals to 1 homosexual statistic. Homosexuals pass off stds just as bad as hetrosexuals do. its just that they are obviously more hetrosexuals. Remeber hetrosexuals where accused and stereotyped for aids also. High number of gays had aids just as as well as high numbers of hetrosexuals having aids and other stds also. Remeber i said that homosexuality wont solve over population problems and pregancy problems. Personal responsibiliy would because as long as they are alot of irresponsible straight people when it comes to sex then they will be over population problems. They are many ways to prevent pregancy and theres even abortion but some have a problem with putting down a passed down belief so that they can ix a problem and benifit themselves better off in the real world. homosexuals were accused of the aids steroetype i just noticed i made a mistake. Chinavagabond you seem like the only person that actually read my question and points i was trying to make, even if you dont agree with me. unlike all these aother people they didnt read all of it which i can tell because they are saying nonsense that i explained about in my writing.
