TravelRe: Ireland And Israel Which Of Them Is Good To Enter With Tourist/visit Visa by Cousin9999: 9:34pm On Apr 03, 2022
Going to any country to be an illegal is unlikely to turn out how you'd like.

And it will be even worse in racist Israel.

FamilyRe: How Often Does Your Spouse Provoke You? by Cousin9999: 9:24pm On Apr 03, 2022
Relationships are work, even when they're really good.

Calling it "provoke" is an unhealthy view. See these situations as what they are: difference of opinion, hurt partner, stressed partner, misunderstanding, communication problem, and etc. And change your attitude. Don't be so reactive. Think about why you feel the way you do about their behavior. Consider if you're being rational, communicating effectively, and etc. Engage each other.

You're not competing and you're not enemies. You're partners.
FamilyRe: Marrying Without Any Source Of Income As A Lady by Cousin9999: 9:14pm On Apr 03, 2022
Some feel like they don't have a choice. Some don't know or accept how terrible men can be.

Guys who marry them are usually very aware and intentional. They want someone they can financially abuse, and control. Other guys don't have much, and they want someone who they think won't care or judge them as harshly (or someone they can talk down to).

That said, some men see themselves as a knight in shining armor. They want to pluck the village girl from poverty and make her feel like a queen.

FamilyRe: Am 19 And Want To Live Like A Man. What Should I Do? by Cousin9999: 8:51pm On Apr 03, 2022
1. I understand how you feel, but you should try to look at it like this; you're in boot camp. You're sacrificing and paying dues now. Study, research businesses, stay fit, and chill with girls discreetly. You can find a way. Your parents might be being extreme, but they'll relax over time.

2. Being on your own is just a distraction from preparing for your future. If you live with this uncle, sure you'll have girls come through, drink, and whatever. But that doesn't get you anything. Worse, you might get lazy, greedy, and start doing the wrong thing or mixing with the wrong people. Not worth it.

3. Lots of struggling young guys would love to be in your position. Use the opportunity.

4. Get a mentor. And network with ambitious peers.

5. This is temporary. You'll be alright.

FamilyRe: He Is 41, She Is 28 by Cousin9999: 10:38pm On Apr 02, 2022
This isn't a real age gap, like 20 and 30.

That said, with how people live today, 28 and 41 may be in significantly different places in life. At 41, a serious relationship may be much more important, and they may not be interested in too much casual stuff (besides hook-ups). At 28, a person may not be fully settled into who they are and what they want. They may not be as interested in settling down yet. Other than that, lifestyle and mentality differences won't be dramatic, unless one person is very immature or one person is ignorant/lazy.
FamilyRe: Is This Invading My Teenagers Privacy? by Cousin9999: 10:21pm On Apr 02, 2022

FamilyRe: Which Child Is More EASIER To Raise A MALE Child Or A FEMALE Child by Cousin9999: 10:11pm On Apr 02, 2022
Raising children is hard period. Gender is irrelevant. Trying to do the "right" things, keep them healthy and safe, and make them into a well-adjusted, productive member of society isn't easy.

However, I suppose you worry about the safety of girls more.
EducationRe: Why Parents Should Stop Enrolling Their Child To School Too Early. by Cousin9999: 10:02pm On Apr 02, 2022
They're generally ready for some kind of school at 3. But this isn't a full day of real school. It's mostly preparation.

It's wild that some people try to start them with real schoolwork at like 2. Like, take it easy. They're only a baby.

Foreign AffairsAngola Suspends Salaries Of Striking Doctors by Cousin9999(op): 10:54pm On Apr 01, 2022
Angola's government has suspended the salaries of more than 5,000 doctors, describing their strike action as illegal.

The National Union of Angola Medical Doctors began an indefinite nationwide strike last week to press for better wages and working conditions.

The stoppage has paralysed public health services, although some medics are providing emergency services.

Doctors say that in addition to poor salaries, health facilities are woefully under-equipped with frequent shortages of supplies and medicines.

The strike is the second in four months. In December, medics took industrial action over the death of 20 children in a hospital in the capital, Luanda.

Doctors allege they died because of shortages of medicine and medical equipment.

Recent negotiations with the government broke down after the doctors rejected a 6% pay increase.

PoliticsGuyana To Host First World Trade Centre In CARICOM by Cousin9999(op): 10:46pm On Apr 01, 2022
The first World Trade Center (WTC) to be set up in the Caribbean Community (CARICOM) will be in Guyana. This follows the culmination of several months of negotiations between Demerara Distillers Limited (DDL) and the New York headquartered World Trade Center Association (WTCA).

DDL said it recently secured a license to establish a World Trade Center in Guyana and will transform its building in High Street Kingston into the center which will provide a range of opportunities for local businesses and organizations to enhance their networking capabilities globally.

Work on the interior redesign of the building has already begun.

An official virtual announcement and handing over of the license ceremony is set for Tuesday, April 5 at 10:00h at which Guyana’s Minister of Tourism, Industry and Commerce, Oneidge Walrond, Georgetown Mayor Ubraj Narine, WTCA Chairman John Drew and DDL Executive Chairman Komal Samaroo will be among the speakers.

There are over 320 World Trade Centers in more than 100 countries in every continent globally. The World Trade Centers Association (WTCA) stimulates trade and investment opportunities for commercial property developers, economic development agencies, and international businesses looking to connect globally and prosper locally.

The association serves as an ‘international ecosystem’ of global connections, iconic properties, and integrated trade services under the umbrella of a prestigious brand.

The exclusive ‘World Trade Center’ and ‘WTC’ branded properties and trade service organizations are located in more than 100 countries and supported by 15,000 WTC professionals that deliver integrated, reciprocal resources to meet the needs of small, medium and large enterprises.

RomanceRe: My Girlfriend Is Shocked That I Don't Know My Neighbour's Name For 2years. by Cousin9999: 6:57pm On Apr 01, 2022
It's generally important to know your neighbors for safety and community action reasons. For example, if there's an emergency or if neighbors need to work together on a problem.

However, some people are dysfunctional. And no one should be shocked if someone is trying to protect their peace. That could mean not knowing neighbors, or keeping it very polite and surface.
FashionRe: Why Do Ladies Bare Cleavage? by Cousin9999: 6:52pm On Apr 01, 2022
1. People generally like to "put their best foot forward." They want to look neat and attractive. What that means will vary based on culture, setting, and personality. Some people, male or female, want to feel sexy or express their sexuality. A woman may show some cleavage. A guy might wear a sleeveless or tight shirt so women can see muscle. If they're not embarrassing themselves or being inappropriate, what's the problem?

2. Women tend to groom themselves in a way that males respond to on a biological level. Biologically, men like the hourglass shape because it suggests fertility. Cleavage is a part of that. Men generally do the same thing.

3. Showing cleavage can also be about creating balance in shape. It may be done to widen the torso or create deconstruction. It's like the neckline chosen for a shirt, or picking the right tie.

EducationRe: My Inability To Speak Fluent English Is Costing Me Huge Opportunities. by Cousin9999: 6:49pm On Mar 31, 2022
1. Spend time in an English-speaking nation.

2. Spend time in a nation where you don't speak the language, and where they speak English, so you're forced to rely on English.

3. Watch a ton of English language films/tv.

4. Date an English speaker for a year.

5. Read a ton of English language novels, or graphic novels.

Yesterday. I have an app that lets me listen to stations all over the world. I use it for occasional casual listening.

But until I found that app, I hadn't listened for years, unless you count podcast and BBC content. I still get most of my music and other content elsewhere. Radio just can't compete, and hasn't for a long time.
