WHAT IS WRONG WITH SOCIETY AND WHY IS THERE SO MUCH DYSFUNCTIONALITY?
Dear Willie D:
Why is there so much division in the world? Maybe I'm naïve but I am 53 years old, and I don't recall ever feeling so helpless about the state of humanity. Everyday all day all you hear and read about is crime, hate, confrontations, pain, and illness. Yes there is the occasional soft and fuzzy good story thrown in, but overall the world is a sad place.
There was a time when I trusted the police, but law enforcement in America seems to have lost its way in terms of respect for the citizens they serve and the badge they wear and our government is just sitting on the sidelines eating popcorn. I feel for the future generations to come. I'm a licensed gun owner, but I still fear for me and my family's safety. What can we do to fix this societal dysfunctionality?
In a fix:
Selfishness, greed, and hate broke it. Compassion, generosity, and love can fix it.
MY GIRLFRIEND WANTS TO TAKE NAKED PICTURES
Dear Willie D:
I don't know what it is about women that they want to take their clothes off for strangers. While we were shopping at the mall, my girlfriend got approached by a talent scout for Playboy, but she turned him down. She has a picture-perfect body, but I think the reason she didn't do it was because she was caught off guard.
That encounter must've opened up something in her because now she's having withdrawals and wants some local photographer guy to take nude pictures of her. I don't know how to process this because I never would've thought she was the type to want to take naked pictures in front of strangers.
She told me that she wants to take the pictures for me, and that no one else will see them because they will be for our private use. Well if he takes the pictures wouldn't the photographer have them for his use too? What's the guarantee that he won't leak them? I don't want to look up someday and see my girlfriend's or possible future wife's naked body on my friend's laptop. What should I say to talk her out of it?
Picture Perfect:
Tell your girlfriend that you don't want some dude taking naked pictures of your girl and explain your concerns. If she doesn't respect your wishes the choice is yours to find someone who will. Sexual expression is a big part of a woman's individualism. When a man acts too prudish it can turn some women off. So be careful how you approach her. If she's dead set on taking nudes she's going to take them with or without you as her man.
I don't know what it is about women that makes them want to take their clothes off for strangers -- but I like it.
