There was a movie in the early 60s with Hayley Mills called 'Whistle down the wind' where the actor Alan Bates is on the run from the cops and her and her brother (they are just little kids) think he's Jesus. Worth a look.

What handicaps does society impose on people today?

Society imposes various handicaps on individuals through systemic inequalities such as economic disparity, discrimination based on race, gender, or sexual orientation, and limited access to education and healthcare. Social stigmas and stereotypes can further marginalize certain groups, affecting their opportunities and mental well-being. Additionally, cultural norms and expectations often pressure individuals to conform, stifling personal expression and innovation. These factors collectively hinder social mobility and individual potential.


What happens if man rapes a man?

It really doesn't matter what race or ethnicity your rapist is, what happens to you is still the same. You will go through a lot of emotions, pain, and struggles. You may, if you are a female, become pregnant, which brings with it a whole lot more issues that you have to deal with. If you are a guy, that brings up a different set of issues to be dealt with then the issues that females have to deal with. Rape is horrible, it affects the whole person. It can cause them trust issues, self-esteem issues, self-image problems, relationship issues, and so much more. There may be some stigmas that you may suffer from if you are raped by a different race or ethnicity from what you are.


What are flowers and how do they work?

Flowers are reproductive organs - they contain stamens (male parts of the flower, loaded with pollen) and stigmas (female parts of the flower, receptive to pollen from another plant of the same species). Plants cannot move, and so they rely on other creatures - normally insects - to move their pollen for them. The insects must be attracted to the flowers so that they will pollinate them. Most of the time, the flowers produce nectar to attract the insects. The bright petals are an advertisement, telling the insects that there is nectar or edible pollen available. Yellow flowers tend to attract insects, while red catches the eyes of most birds. The petals are coloured so brightly because of pigments that are relatively easy for the plant to produce. These pigments can be all colours and combinations of them make the flowers colourful.


What is a bowl cut?

A 'bowl cut' in hair cutting got it's name from the way people cut hair themselves at home. Mothers often upturned a large mixing bowl on a child's head and used the bowl's edge as a guide for cutting. Vintage 'Dutch Boy' brand paint cans had a young boy with blond hair, cut in the traditional 'bowl cut'. Probably because of how it was done, and being the cheapest haircut for both boys and girls, the Bowl Cut led to teasing and ridicule, especially in the 1950s and 1960s. Though it may now have less bullying, in the 50s and 60s a bowl cut carried a lot of stigmas and cruelty from peers. See related link to see a Dutch Boy Paint can image.


Is saffron indigenous to South Africa?

* The saffron crocus (Crocus sativus), is cultivated from a crocus native to Crete, to Southwest Asia., or to Asia Minor, depending on your source. The earliest Chinese texts list Kashmir as its provenance. It's earliest known use is in what is now Iraq, where it was applied as a pigment in 50,000 year-old depictions of animals. Pinpointing the origin of Crocus cartwrightianus, which is the wild precursor to the cultivar, presents an almost insurmountable challenge to the researcher. Wikipedia has additional information on this, the plant from which the world's most expensive spice is derived. You'll find a link to that post below. * Saffron, the most expensive spice in the world, is made from the stigma (threads) of the Crocus flower. It takes over 210,000 stigmas from 70,000 hand picked flowers to make just one pound of this exotic, colorful and flavorful spice. Ninety-five per cent of the world's saffron actually comes from Iraq. * Historians know Saffron belongs to the ancients, but cannot tell where it was first cultivated, but they did find evidence that Saffron was cultivated in ancient 'Mesopotamia (modern Iraq) over 5,000 years ago. Because Saffron was so sought after (one of the most expensive spices to buy even today) traders would use Saffron when bargaining and Saffron has been mentioned in ancient Greece, Asia Minor and other surrounding countries as well as Palestine. To date the best Saffron is hailed from La Mancha, Spain.
