That probably is more accurate, but these days not politically correct. On this note, I couldn't help but refer to the recent announcement that one of the largest Christian seminaries in the US will now be offering a full degree course in 'homemaking: ... Southwestern Baptist, one of the nation's largest Southern Baptist seminaries, is introducing a new academic program in homemaking as part of an effort to establish what its president calls biblical family and gender roles. It will offer a bachelor of arts in humanities degree with a 23-hour concentration in homemaking. The program is only open to women. Coursework will include seven hours of nutrition and meal preparation, seven hours of textile design and "clothing construction," three hours of general homemaking, three hours on "the value of a child," and three hours on the "biblical model for the home and family." http://www.forbes.com/feeds/ap/2007/08/09/ap4004374.html Never mind the revolution ... it's more like the counter-revolution that's coming. |

There is another 40 hour follow up course for the budding homemaker which covers the following topics: He's fat, stinks of liquor and never bathes, but I still want him to do me. I walked into a door, yeah, it was a door I hit. Big sunglasses and makeup: A housewife's best friends. They are MY kids when they misbehave. Hubby likes gay porn, but he's straight! He's in politics, but the law is for everyone else. Sometimes, he smells like other women, but its no big deal. Your ("fanny"  is his, literally._____________________

(hes 30 feet closer to the fridge but still asks you to get him a beer) Social/Eco reprecussions involved in not interacting with the emotionally disadvantaged. (his freinds are all losers but for some reason he thinks they should hang at your house) |

"The average age of the people you'll meet there is 32. Most of them are creative professionals with backgrounds in areas like architecture, design, education and fashion." Most people in SL have some Kind of creative Flare. Content creators are the Most obvious. They are the Terraformers, Builders, Content creators, Fashion designers, Scripters, ALL the people who have Chosen their "Brush and Canvas" and seek to make SL Richer both visulally, and Sensually (in the Context of experience, Not Sex). People who Socialize as their main driving force seek to create an Atmosphere, Society or Environment Rather than a tangible(?) object. They are the ones who organize Events, Host parties, or Create role Play Worlds within SL, Whatever their venue, their creativity is expressed best in bringing people Together. Even griefers can be Creative, or innovative. Although Discord is their Chosen Medium, they employ many Sub skills to irritate people. The least Skilled are the Naked/Particle fountain/Cager-Shooters. They just use things others have made. The Scammers use Perverted social skills, while the Hackers use sophisticated scripting to cause mayhem. Second life is a unique opportunity to Finally Do what we Want to do Unfettered by RL Concerns such as Education, Government, Money, Motor Skills, Gravity, or Physics. Not everyone is creative in the same way, or for the same reasons, but everyone in SL Does seem to want to Create Something. Those who view it as Just another Video Game rapidly lose interest because there isn't enough destruction going on to Hold their interests for very long. Angel. |

I'm ten years too young, but I have a creative job (at least to me; I'm a phone girl and it takes a LOT of creativity to weave a custom fantasy for each client), so I think I'll just choose pie.
Yum, pie. |
