BusinessRe: What Business Can A 19 Year Old University Student Do To Earn A Living? by pleep(m): 2:41am On Apr 03, 2011
I suggest you invest in stocks. Its great way to make money while still studying especially if your doing long term. In high school i made about 600$ of 50$ with Ford Moter stock. Just to be safe i would advise some training courses and a FAST computer.

Kobojunkie:
^^^ Now you are just being childish !!! What defeat are you rambling on about now? the article clearly tells you that measured at least $2 dollars a day(i.e able to afford goods and services of values of $2 of more a day and regardless of the exchange rate at time of measure), there are over 70% below the poverty line but you continue to spew what again??
grin cheesy grin cheesy cheesy grin cheesy

Anyways, keep trying to twist around what was stated . . . when you succeed at something new reasonable, let me know so I can read it then!
If your trying to say that the measure of poverty is adjusted for inflation, and fluctuating exchange rates i dont know why you didn't just say that in the begining huh . Anyway, the article doesn't state that, and i have never heard that fact before. but it might be true, ill do some research i guess.

I think that it is the case that at some point in all this, you lost your point !!! ROFLMAO!!
haha, don't play that game with me. I don't expect people like you to admit defeat. However, i am impressed that you didn't cry ROFLMAO and continue to argue as blindly as a headless chicken like you usually do.

^^^
from your source:
Poverty is the lack of basic human needs such as clean water, nutrition, healthcare, education, clothing and shelter because of inability to afford them
if an individual is making 200 Naira a day and is able to buy basic needs like water, food, and medicine education etc, in 1986 he is not poor according to this definition. And if an individual is able to buy those same basic needs with 200 Naira in 2011 he is not poor either according to this correct definition.

However, According to your other source, (that says poverty is increasing in Nigeria) poverty is making less than 2$ a day. Lets say that in 1986 the first individuals 200 Niara is worth 3$. Then he is not poor right? However, according to you if the second individual's 200 naira is worth 1.50$ he is poor. Regardless of the fact that they have the exact same standard of living.

good job smart one

^^^ what happened was the currency value of the Naira decreased. Notice how the defininition of poverty is earning less than 2[i] $[/i] a day. In the 80's and 90's the value of the Naira to the Dollar was worth more than it is today. If  the Dollar suddenly dropped to half its current value the 'poverty rate' of Nigeria would drastically reduce also. And if the Value of the Naira doubled the poverty rate would also decrease.

sometimes i wonder if the people who make these statistics didn't think about all these factors before jumping to conclusions.

[quote author=Ms. Potato link=topic=634417.msg8028856#msg8028856 date=1301623957]This is really sad but what do you think? Do u actually agree with the article?[/quote]well, it seems to be based on truth but the authors are ignoring several facts.
steryiotypical Black women are very curvatious smiley- feminine
and black women have feminine lips- feminine
but black women have wide noses- masculine.

steriotypical asian women have a sort of 'delicate' look and  are not very hairy- feminine
and are short- feminine (love short girls)
but are not very curvatous- masculine

steryiopical white girls have a low center of gravity-  feminine shocked
and most are curvacious- feminine
but europeans are usually very hairy in comparison to other regions- masculine.

Anyway, what im trying to say is that women from all regions are equally feminine and beautiful.

Least desiredhuh WHOThuh U serious? Why's that?

Yeah, i understand what the Asian guy and African laqdy is going through. Caus epeople are definitely going to stare
The article said some racist BS about Black women being too physically masculine, and Asian men being too physically feminine. it also went on to say that black men are extreamly Masculine and Asian women are extreamly feminine. I can see where they get these ideas from, but notice it places white people in the Middle as usual, not to much yin or yang.  undecided Black men are often seen as fetish material for white women and asian women are often a fetish for white men unfortunately.
RomanceRe: Mixed Couples And Racism On Both Sides by pleep(m): 2:26am On Apr 01, 2011
ps. according to the same study black women are the least desired women. One time i saw an Asian man and an African woman dating. They looked terrified! like they expected everyone around them to make racist remarks. very interesting and very sad also

Tosinville:
I wonder why some of these girls are just getting mad over nothing just because most guys prefer the white chicks in bed to black girls?lol
Can we blame them for getting mad? imagine if Black women treated black men they way we treat them. (this is in reference to ppl in the U.S) black men would end up like asian men. Agreed to the least desired of all men. every single asian man i know is single, many have never had a single girlfriend, all this because Asian women prefer white dudes.
