Susie Q, while you're almost assuredly joking, testosterone in men with normal testosterone levels is converted by the body into estrogen, which may have the opposite of the effects you're hoping for. :P

Yeah, same as Gauldar, I remember an episode of House along that premise. In the same vein, I wonder if there are effects for adult family members. Do female partners of people on testosterone therapy go through male puberty? Or is the secondary dose too small to effect adults?

I'm from Pittsburgh, and this doesn't surprise me at all. People around here will do anything for the Stillers.

Serious mental illness isn't all that funny.

Except they're not experimenting with growing giant insects, they're experimenting with what happens with insects in high oxygen atomospheres. By the sound of it, if the treacheal tubes decrease in size with the increase of oxygen, those insects are ill-suited to life on Earth as it currently is, thus, they're extinct.

I remember reading somewhere that most of the goats grow out of the condition. I wonder if it's the same for the kittens?

Manticore, what's so strange about that? My grandmother was about that age when I was 1. She gave birth to my mother, her oldest child, when she was 20, and my mother gave birth to me, her oldest child, when she was 21.

I can't shake the feeling that that's child abuse. Births are traumatic. Maybe older children could witness if they chose, but kids that young and that opposed should not be forced.

That just reminds me of this piece @ deviantart. http://pyxelated.deviantart.com/art/Reality-1920x1200-25788628

Ugh... Lolita always makes me sick to my stomach.

I love "It was a pleasure to burn." from the beginning of F451 by Ray Bradbury. It ranks in the 30s on that list.

@Melissa, it is tantamount to slavery. Prisoners did a vast amount of the (dangerous) work cleaning beaches after the Deepwater Horizons Oil Spill. Many times, prisoners who elect not to work will be counted as uncooperative and don't get the benefits that go with good behaviour simply because they opt out of a "voluntary" but often dangerous or undesirable job.

Why do people try and push their own "bad" behaviour as biology?

It's scary. When I moved in last year, I was one of the few whose parents dropped dropped them off with their stuff in their dorm, still in boxes. The rest of the parents were there for what seemed like a week and a half, which I think made making friends with people outside of your residence hall hard, since when people weren't at the dorm, they were with their families.

I've had the most trouble with Latin. So many forms of every word... and pronunciation varies between who you talk to, since it hasn't been spoken in a very long time.
