 dakotayii says: So women have a self-esteem problem? I'm not advocating for self-esteem training and therapy. I think that many of the self-help gurus argue incorrectly that improved self-esteem increases performance. Helping people to perform better increases their self esteem. Giving a kind of carte blanche to self-esteem isn't a good idea in my mind.

So I reply something funny and the reply came back in Latin again. So I told the person to blow a little person. Next thing I knew, my monitor lights up like a Christmas tree. The comments comes from everywhere. I was surprised by the number for and jokes about Little People. Some of the comments could even be from The Human society. I have nightmares of Little people running around and fighting with each other with little pinch forks . W... |
