I want to move to South America, what will I need, how realistic is this?
My partner and I both live in the United States but want to move somewhere in South America, we're thinking Argentina, Chile, Peru, or Ecuador. We are going to work for a while here in the states to save up money so it will still be a while until the move is imminent. I know they speak Spanish in all of those countries, my partner speaks it fluently, and I'm learning quickly. What I want to know is what countries out of the ones I listed would be the best to move to, in terms of cost of living, how easy/difficult it is to get a job, and just living there in general? How much money would be a good amount to have saved before making the move? Any resources you could point me to would be much appreciated. :)

Are you an ex-Nazi? If so, you will have no problem finding your way to South America.
2 :
South America and most other countries on earth allow almost NO legal immigration. Remember this the next time you hear some racist la raza nazi hispanic complaining about Americas immigration policy's.
3 :
Moving to South America is very feasible. My whole family moved to Ecuador (parents and four kids). We love living in Ecuador and have had some cool experiences. Right now my husband and I are working in the US, saving to go back. We plan to save about $6,000 to stay for a year (we own a house so we won't being paying rent). I'm not sure about the other countries you listed, but Ecuador is very affordable. See my website for more info...

I think my teacher is doing something illegal, and I want to do something about it!?
I think my teacher is doing something illegal, and I want to do something about it!?
To sum it up: My teacher is making us pay for a grade. Details: My Spanish teacher tells us that we have to go to the winter formal, which is $10 per person. I asked him why we had to, and he said that it was "a cultural experiance." Well, I went and it was a normal dance, except it had some spanish music. I know that he is wanting money for a trip to Argentina, but he can't force us to pay. Actually, we had an alternative... We could have written an eight page essay, but who would pick that over a dance. and since it was a formal, I was expected to wear a nice Expensive dress. Well, he can't bribe us. I would understand if it were extra credit, but it wasn't. I want to complain, but it's not really my style. I am not happy and I don't know what to say or how to go about it. Ten points to best answer. I will be checking tonight.

If I understand you correctly, your teacher basically said that you could do one of two things for your grade: 1. Write an eight page essay, or 2. Attend a specific cultural event (the winter formal). You didn't pay for your grade, you simply chose the easier assignment.
2 :
You are so right. He should not have givien you those 2 choices!! If you dont want to go to the dance then you shouldnt have to. Yeah he needed money to go to Argentina. I have never heard of a teacher doing that. And I understand that its not your style to tell on him, but someone needs to know this, so what you could do is casually mention in front of another teacher, to a friend lets say, "oh my gosh can you belive we had to choose paying for a dance or writing an essay!, I have never heard of that!" and any teacher listining will ask you about it.
3 :
Talk to another staff member (guidance counselor, principal, other teacher, etc.) about this. Ask their opinion. He shouldn't force you to pay to go to a dance instead of writing a long essay. It is hard for me to say the right answer in this, so talk to someone who does know if this is right or wrong.
4 :
Giving you the option to attend a formal dance or do an essay is fine. He didn't force anyone to go to the dance. He gave a choice. And, he may be raising money for his trip. But, how do you know that the dance money is going to him? The dance had to have been approved by the principal. And, the principal knows where the money is going. So, if the money IS going to the teacher, the principal said it was ok. The teacher isn't doing anything illegal. :)

Is a straight man's sex drive his biggest weakness?
Is a straight man's sex drive his biggest weakness?
Men will spend hours of their day on porn websites. They will waste their time and money on a woman they don't even care about just for the gleaming hope of getting her in the sack. They will risk their political careers just to rape a maid in a hotel or have a secret fling in Argentina. Their desperation for sex makes women's lives so much easier. Women don't need sex as fervently as men do. Men just kind of throw it in our laps though. We don't have to work for it. We don't have to do anything really. When we feel like having sex, we can get it. Do men ever think their lives would be so much easier if they weren't thinking about sex and women all the time? I mean I like sex, I like men, but it's not the center of my universe. My world doesn't revolve around it. What do you think? Men, do you ever want to just NOT want sex anymore? Do you ever want to stop your urge to fap to internet porn for a good portion of your day? Just think of how much more productive you'd be if you weren't ruled by your extreme longing for sex!

Nope. A man's sex drive propels him to accomplish incredible feats, or atleast attempt to. Despite what feminists say, we're all mentally hardwired from years of evolution to respond to certain things. Women respond to men who can provide for kids, while men respond to fertile women. In our society, this translates into men chasing money and women chasing the men who make money. The more money a man makes, the better his chance of bedding attractive women. Think about it. If it wasn't for sex, then why would a man spend 8 hours working in a job he hates? -ahoy, the pirate of masculinity has struck.
3 :
No,and your ignorance is YOUR weakness. Stop generalizing.
4 :
No man is controlled by his sex drive. Anyone who is is a sex addict. That's just a fact.
5 :
i don't fap to internet porn....much anyway. and i have self control, the same thing that keeps me from living unhealthily in all the other ways that are easy to do. but yes, sometimes it can be a biyatch.
6 :
No honey ... it is potentially his biggest strength. A man without a sex-drive is a strange and confused one. The male sex drive gives him motivation to create, construct, build, foster, nurture, provide, learn, grow ... It is driven by testosterone. We speak poorly of testosterone ... but that is what makes men do manly things, and act in manly ways. That is what makes men, men. Men who have addictions are the ones who have not channeled their most powerful asset in a productive way. It takes discipline for a man to do this. I don't know a lot of men who even spend an hour a week looking at internet porn. But I know they are out there. I know that some men have something of an addiction to it. I am sorry for them, because they have a problem. They lack discipline and self-restraint. But his sex drive is not his biggest weakness - it is his biggest strength. His lack of emotional control is his biggest weakness.
7 :
For men, food and sex are the most primary drives. But most exercise excellent self-control. Women are the same. We just have better control. So the problem isn't sex, it's strength of character.

All you have explained is capitalism. Imagine a world were man and women just f...uck. I'm sure there is a planet out there in total orgasm! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-b7qaSxuZUg
9 :
I thought rape wasn't about sex? IMO no I don't think my sex drive is my "biggest weakness". Sex and masturbation is enjoyable and relaxing and there is plenty free porn so there is no need to pay for it. You are also making sexist generalizations.. most men aren't slaves fapping to internet porn all day like you seem to think, most men do have self-control.
10 :
You sound like you want to have an account suspended!
11 :
NAAAAH, WE'RE LIKE SEX CAMELS WE CAN GO ON FOR MONTHS WITHOUT SEX.
12 :
It can be if you're retarded like a lot of men are unfortunately, but if you're intelligent, its easy to control and harness. All energy comes from one pool, sexual energy can be harnessed to create things, this is called sublimation, which is essentially taking your sexual energy and harnessing it to do more productive things. So it can be a weakness if the guy is an idiot. For people like me its not wasted on you, its used to create things that will outlive me.....and you ;) So it can be his greatest strength, or his greatest weakness, it depends on the male.
13 :
What percentage of men actually spend hours per day looking at porn? You could search the web for stats, but I suspect the % is lower than you think. It's true that men will spend time/money and otherwise behave differently if desperate to get a woman into bed. But not all men are that needy. When you hear about the sex crimes/exploits of the rich and famous men, keep in mind that they are unusual men in unusual life situations. They are not representative of the typical man. And older men are much less horny. I've read that women sometimes want sex more than men, perhaps during one part of the menstrual cycle. But most of the time, yes, the average woman probably is less focused on sex. Attractive young women do have it ridiculously easy when it comes to getting sex. Too bad they are more fixated on finding love and romance, and perhaps getting married to a man who can finance their childbearing; that is not easy at all. So I guess they don't have it easy, after all. And aging or ugly women sometimes find it difficult or impossible to find men interested in them sexually. Yes, men's lives would be simpler if they were never obsessed with women. But some of them would be less driven to succeed, and they would experience less enjoyment of sex (and, later, parenthood). The human race would have died out, or been much less numerous, if that were the case.
14 :
I don't think that's true. Sex for me isn't a weakness. I feel sorry for anyone who has no control over their hormones. That said, I don't have sex, and I also don't think my life is any easier than men who are having sex. I think your entire premise is based on ill-conceived notions about men's sex drives given to you by the mainstream media.
15 :
The biggest weakness is that men don't seem to know that women want sex, too. As you said, they will waste their money on women and just basically throw themselves out there. And the men who do this make it hard for the rest of us, men. Think about it. If I am not going to spend a penny on a woman, then why would she want me? She can easily find a man who will shower her with money. "Women don't need sex as fervently as men do." Women need sex. The difference is that women can get sex whenever they need it, which is what you say a few sentences later. "I mean I like sex, I like men, but it's not the center of my universe." That's because you can get sex whenever you want. If guys were playing mind games and hard to get all the time, you would become obsessed with sex also. If men would just realize that women want sex also and stop paying so much and quit doing or saying anything just to get laid, things would change pretty quickly. Also, you are making generalizations. I don't think most men are as horny as you are making them out to be. Some men will risk their political careers for sex, but most won't. I am sure women in power have extramarital affairs too, but the media only seems to care when men sleep around. Seriously, do you really think most men spend a good portion of their day looking at porn? I am one of the horniest people you will ever come across, and even I usually don't spend any more than an hour in a day.
16 :
I dunno about other guys but I am not out for just sex whne I treat a girl to a resteraunt or such I am establishing a connection and don't mind paying. I don't spend hours of the day on porn sites and honestly I don't see why other guys do. This is one guy who enjoys sex but does not let it rule his life and any girl that is just out to see how much she can sap from me had best just keep on looking.
17 :
Some men are completely dominated by their sex drives, and some aren't. Often, men's extreme interest in sex lessens with age. Thankfully, I am no longer willing to sell myself short in order to please women like I was willing to do in my late teens. I have learned that there is no such thing as 'the one and only' woman for me, and I now date 2 or 3 women at a time to prevent going crazy for any one woman ever again. I think men that have pride in themselves and work hard for a living don't go to strip clubs or spend a lot of time looking at internet porn. These men have faith in their ability to attract a decent woman, so they aren't as preoccupied with finding new women to have sex with all the time.
