These days the problem in the dating market is caused not by women's eternal frailty but by their new dominance. In a world where women in their 20s are, on average, more successful than men, dating becomes complicated. Women no longer need men for financial security and social influence. They can achieve those things by themselves. No one is in a hurry to get married, and sex is, by the terms of sexual economics, very cheap. When sex is cheap, more men turn into what the sociologist Mark Regnerus calls "free agents." They sleep with as many women as possible basically, because they can. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304724404577299391480959420.html
Harassment everywhere: in the street... The article arguments sound reasonable, but nevertheless alert... http://feministteacher.com/2012/03/23/why-teachers-should-join-the-global-movement-against-street-harassment/
Isn’t the culture of organizations to blame for driving some women to use other people, to deceive them in order to get ahead? What exactly is it that shocks us about women deciding they need to misrepresent themselves and manipulate others, if they find themselves in an unfair environment in the first place? As if only women behave like that...)))) http://www.forbes.com/sites/crossingborders/2012/03/20/women-should-not-use-their-sexuality-to-get-ahead-in-a-male-dominated-environment-says-one-corporate-veteran
'The woman who follows the crowd will usually go no further than the crowd. The woman who walks alone is likely to find herself in places no one has ever been before.' ― Albert Einstein
Presque toutes les sociétés ont donné naissance à des dieux...Un ensemble d’esprits a, en effet, la force spirituelle de créer un univers, des dieux, dotés d’une existence réelle...Des pensées, des idées se transforment ainsi en entités réelles et existent en fonction de la communauté qui les produit. Si cette communauté disparaît, ses dieux meurent. Ce qui est vrai à propos des dieux l’est aussi à propos des idéologies. http://www.lemondedesreligions.fr/culture/edgar-morin-il-est-inutile-de-tenter-de-se-debarrasser-des-dieux-21-03-2012-2369_112.php
According to Dr. Bloch, “…because the evidence shows that poverty is a major health condition and the biggest determinant of health, especially for those who live on low incomes.” One only needs to scratch the surface of the growing body of research evidence to see the importance of poverty on health outcomes. http://healthydebate.ca/opinions/screening-for-poverty-identifying-an-important-social-determinant-of-health

The question arises over and over again: why marry? In order to redo what you can just do? And to find sex and properly done household chores interrelated? http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/03/20/household-chores_n_1367316.html?ncid=edlinkusaolp00000003
Mathematical sociology is a vastly under-developed field. It is in its infancy compared to mathematical economics or mathematical psychology.The results sociologists do have are often descriptive or definitional. Instead, there is a smattering of results in collective behavior, networks, social psychology, and stochastic process models. A critical mass of people is needed to hit the topic, develop it, and then teach the rest of the profession. Right now, most soc departments don’t even teach mathematical sociology. Since the field isn’t developed, it’s fair to say that there is no major debate among formal model builders/theorem provers beyond those that exist in specific topics (e.g., network models or collective action). http://orgtheory.wordpress.com/2012/03/21/mathematical-sociology-argument-transparency-vs-truth/
It seems as if each progressive movement in the Western social environment, having had more or less prominent achievements, consequently turns upside down or is pushed back as far as the starting point. And even further.So that the context is historically different, but the problem itself remains intact. Feminism in the US, as an example. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/soraya-chemaly/womens-reproductive-rights_b_1345214.html?ref=tw
...we are a society in which research has shown quite conclusively that local newscasts overrepresent blacks as criminals, relative to their actual share of total crime, and overrepresent whites as victims, relative to our share of victimization. A society in which other studies have shown that these racially-skewed newscasts have a direct relationship to widespread negative perceptions of black people. Indeed, a substantial percentage of anti-black racial hostility can be directly traced to media imagery, even after all other factors are considered. A society in which the disproportionate incarceration of black males — especially for non-violent drug offenses, which they are no more likely (and often even less likely) than whites to commit — feeds the perception that they are so treated because they are dangerous and must be kept at bay. A society in which criminality is so associated with blackness that whites literally and almost instantly connect the two things in survey after surv
10 Lessons from Einstein 1. Follow Your Curiosity “I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.” 2. Perseverance is Priceless “It’s not that I’m so smart; it’s just that I stay with problems longer.” 3.
