bad language

i personnally thnk that bad language has become a 'norm' in todays society i thnk this because you see nearly everybody from child to madult swearing. i admit i use bad language on a regular basis and i do have freinds who use bad language as well. howevr thinking about it why would you want to use such language in oreder to hurt somebody or say things like that it really is discusting.

i dont really know what attracts peole to swearing like i saiod its become the 'norm' and everybodies doing it. the link provides some information on bad language.

size zero

why is that every celebrity is turning into a size zero?? and why is it that all the celebrity worshippers are dying (literally) to become size zero?? to make sure this is exactly what happens most retail stores sell clothes that are size 4? and most brand names dont do over size 14 in some cases even size 12 is the biggest size they do. this is very clearly disturbing because girls as young as 10/11 are also being affected by this they stop eating properly and because they are still growing they are not getting the right amount of vitamins and minerals they need. the media need to stop making size zero look like its a must, surley this is not acceptable

eating disorders

ok eatimng dioreders is bad in the sense of its hareming your body, some people get to the stage were they are obese and eat, eat, eat to comfort themselbves, whereas other poeple just simply stop eating at all and become anarexic.

i understand why peole may do tyhis as it has phycological issues but then on the other hand i dont understand it as why would peole want to this to themselves ansd harm ythemselves.

the site above explains other sort of eating disoders. i thnk the media has a big affect on eating disorders because everybody just wants to be like thier idle.

dodging the tax man

its superising how many people how there actually dodge the tax man, this is clearly a form of fruad and am happy now that the laws are getting tougher on these people. i was quite suprised to find there are actually websites telling people how to dodge the tax man, and giving them tips on how to tie there money. this is very unfair on other tax payers and people shouldnt get away with it full stop.

lying with intergrity

personnaly i feel that the odd lie here and there is not as bad as peopel make out. on the other hand lying about something very serioyse that i feel is unacceptable. i feel that if you ;lie you have to tell a thousand lies (ok i know over exageratioin) to cover that one lie up.

people may lie for many reasons one reason that i can think of is to get attention ie i goe this phat car when the person really has a banger. i thnk lying to an extreme which it will hurt peopel is very seriouse as it may have very seriouse concequeses.

lying is a way to cover up the truth which i thnk people like to do in porder to make themselves look good. i admit i do lie but i would not like to lie to the extreme were i would start to hurt people.

vadelism

http://www.blurtit.com/q510132.html

the link above states a few reasons why people vandelise, i feel people vandeklise in oreder to show their emotions to the society. so why not do this on paper and show thier emotions this way? i think it is because they can not show society how they are feeling. like the link states that people that are bored vandelise.

i agree with that this is because mainly teenagers tyhat have nothing to do day in day out do end up vandelising. expecially if they are from bad social backgrounds thye tyend to be more into vandelising. i dont know call it labelling but thats how i feel about the subject.
