In Toronto, only criminals are allowed to carry firearms (police may carry tazers but only once they have received no less than three formal letters of rejection from the criminal…"

Edward G replied to Edward G's discussion Staying with the girlfriend's parents"If we end up going out for a meal or something (as will be pretty inevitable), should I offer to pay for my share?

Me and my girlfriend are both university students. I live in the UK and she lives in Canada, though we met when she spent a year here. I've met her mother once before, but that before we were together, and only briefly (though she did end up pre-approving me). Her father I've not met.

Since we're…See More
Edward G replied to Brett's discussion Putting A Price On College"In the long run, college is usually worth it. Yes, it's a lot of debt, but when you compare average earnings of people with a degree and without, those with a degree earn far more than the fees cost over their career. This isn't the case…"
Edward G replied to alex banner's discussion Career path"Presumeably by college you mean sixth form college instead of university? Most people on these forums will think that by college you mean university, which will cause lots of confusion.
Presumeably you'll have just done your GCSEs. How well…"
Edward G replied to Alex's discussion Is Math a Manly Skill"As an undergraduate mathematician, I've also noticed that there is a gender imbalance among mathematicians. However, the gender imbalance that I've observed is one that goes towards more men, with the number of men being between two and…"
Edward G replied to Matt D's discussion The Noble Thing To Do"I would disagree on that front. I have a few very close female friends, and there are no romantic hints going on. I have been supporting them a lot through the sticky patches in their relationships, and at no point that I am aware of has my…"
Edward G replied to Brett McKay's discussion Hypospadias"When you say multiple streams, if you mean streams originating from different parts of the penis, then that would be hypospadias, epispadias, or one of the related malformations.
If you mean multiple streams originating from the one hole in the…"
Edward G replied to The Earl of Essex's discussion Manly Cross-functioning footwear"I only have four pairs of shoes:
1 pair of sneakers. These I wear for anything sporty.
1 pair of walking boots. These I wear if I'm going to be doing any long-distance walking, or if the ground outside is iffy (for example, if it's been…"
Edward G replied to Brett McKay's discussion Hypospadias"Although this thread is rather old, I felt that it would be better to use it rather than start a new one.I would like to take the opportunity to contribute by saying that I have hypospadias, and I would like to share my experiences with it (massive…"
Edward G replied to Brendan McCarthy's discussion If you could go back to HS, what would you do differently?"Personally, I'm really happy with my experiences. I got the grades to get into my University of choice, got to be friends with loads of great people, and I'm still in touch with a lot of them."
Edward G replied to Devon Rauth's discussion College Interview"I did my university interviews back in december 09, and there was no dress code for me.

Liam S. replied to Nathan DeParis's discussion Women: The Infallible Baromoter"I disagree that ethics necessarily reflect morals. Virtues, maybe. But manners and ethics are social constructs, not moral ones. Morals *may* come into play, but are not necessarily part of the equation. "
Michael replied to Nathan DeParis's discussion Women: The Infallible Baromoter"I would disagree about manners.
Manners are a subset of ethics, therefore ultimately morals and virtues will come into play."
