- Why Don't We Talk About It? The Social Aspect Of Sex Addiction
By: Inner Balance and Peace | -
Sexual addiction is thought to be a sign of moral weakness by the standards of todays society. Because of this, most of us do not wish to discuss the topic of sex addiction because they are either embarrassed or ashamed of such behaviors. Others may view sexual addicts as being morally repugnant and will label them as perverts or simply weird.
If you have ever tried to speak about sex addiction with your friends or family, you have probably been met with embarrassed ...

- Do Tribes Dominate Our Culture And Rule Our Companies?
By: JOHN HARDY | - The lone wolf is a myth. No wolf can survive for long in the wild away from its pack. Similarly, the maverick, the solitary hero depicted in the old Marlboro cigarette commercial as the solitary cowboy, out on the range, with nothing but his horse, his gun, and the great blue sky as his companions, is romanticism.
In order to achieve anything of enduring value, building a structure, publishing a book, growing a business empire, or raising a child, we need to enlist the active coop ...

- Does Daily Life Cause Us To Be Rude?
By: Laurie Wilhelm | - Do you interact with rude people? Do you think our society is getting ruder?
Rudeness covers a lot of territory. It can be talking on your cell phone at a restaurant, interrupting someone, ignoring a colleague in the parking lot, poor table manners or neglecting to say the basic polite words "please" and "thank you."
Why is there rudeness in our society? There may be several contributing factors:
Stress
Stress is probably one of the biggest c ...

- Ramblings On Society, Technology, And The World
By: Aydan Corkern | - A quick look at our world and the way it functions, and you can quickly arrive at two conclusions (among other conclusions, I'm sure). First, the world is void of love and peace. Wherever you go, there are incidences of murder, rapes, and other acts of vicious violence. It's hard to believe that people can be so capable of committing such atrocious crimes on their fellow brethren, but it happens nonetheless.
Second, the world has made significant strides in technology. There are m ...

- The Negative Effects Of Advancing Technology On Society
By: Aydan Corkern | - Most people will praise the many technological gadgets that they use in their everyday lives. Technology is evolving at a very fast rate, and what most people did not even think could be real a few years ago is now becoming a reality. Cell phones that act more like computers, sans making documents and other important work files, have now taken the world by storm, and a lot of people could not imagine what life would now be like if they didn't have the internet, email, and chat features on their ...

- Cultural Discourses: The Postcapitalist Paradigm Of Discourse And Surrealism
By: Maureen Calhoun | - "Society is intrinsically used in the service of hierarchy," says Foucault. Therefore, Hamburger implies that we have to choose between the postcapitalist paradigm of discourse and conceptual socialism. The main theme of the works of Gaiman is the dialectic, and therefore the fatal flaw, of subdialectic sexual identity.
"Society is part of the stasis of consciousness," says Derrida; however, according to Cameron , it is not so much society that is part of the stasis of consciousne ...

- My Values In American Society
By: Douglas Michaels | - Voting according to how a candidate stands on issues is important, but I think how they stand on values in American society today is more important.
Four years is a long time and the issues will change, but the values of the candidate should not change. Decisions on the current issues and the emerging issues should be guided by the same value system.
Many people put their values in different places. As for me and my house, we put our values in the Creator God as d ...

By: rodrigo rehn | - We live in a society where information is golden, or is it? We all get stuck thinking that we need to share the good, the bad, and the ugly when we begin dating someone, but this isn't necessarily true. The old "What they don't know won't kill them adage" often proves very true. You don't have to share everything about your past or even recent history if it will not have any bearing on your current relationship.

It may have taken a few decades after 1984, but today, it does appear that no matter where you go or what you do, you at least run the risk of being watched and viewed. And, depending on what you're actually doing, watched and viewed can easily transmogrify into caught and exposed.

Nevertheless it is clearly manifest on the scene, carrying with it detrimental effects on both young and old. I'm not suggesting that we are saturated with it, but like a few drops of lethal liquid placed in the well it poisons the whole.
