Why do men ask gross questions?

It is a combination of culture and neurology. Men tend to lack the inhibitions to ask such questions, and they do not find them offensive. Some of the urge to ask such questions is the desire to compete using content intended to shock others.

To be fair, women ask gross questions too. For instance, they may ask questions about their own anatomy.

I think the expression 'Men' is being abused quite freely here. Gross questions, male - quite surely; men - unlikely.

Why do people like taking off their clothes?

People take off there clothes to sleep or take a shower. That being said the point of the question probably is why people take off there clothes in public for no other reason then to expose themseveles.

There are many answeres to that. They may be looking for attention which is certainly a way to do that. They may also be trying to make a statement like when women expose their breasts in a protest against gender bias. Another reason is because it feels good sometimes when it is hot. It can also feel good to express freedom of restriction from clothing. Letting the wind cool your entire body. It is also done for money and because you are horny and it can also make you feel sexy and horny.

Can a guy wear a maxi pad?

I'm a guy and I wear maxi pads every day at home and work because after I pee I dribble and who wants pee in their pants and down their leg? So yes, it is okay if you have a right reason to.

I am gay and need them because after sex I have discharge that I don't want soiling my clothing. I have sex often so basically I wear Stay free pads every day and my panties are never soiled and stay pretty. I always attach a new pad when I dress after sex, feminine gay men should know this as a fact of life. when I was young [teens] it wasn't an issue but when I was about 40 things got stretched and weren't so tight anymore so it was then that I needed something to absorb the fluids from men who loved me

Why is animal behavior included in the study of human behavior?

Animals survive purely off instinct. Although humans have other factors in their behaviors, many behaviors are based off of the same instinctual value,. i.e., a monkey will fight to the death to protect their offspring, as will many human beings.

Animals and humans share many behaviors. A fascinating PBS film entitled "Monkey in the Mirror" discusses that topic. Recent studies of animals in the wild have also revealed that humans and animals also share emotions. Another great PBS production to watch is "Inside the Animal Mind". It is difficult to watch the behavior of chimps and not see a human connection in our similar behaviors.

Why are some people gay and lesbians?

Genetics are one possibility. Some people are gay and believe they were born that way.

Studies have shown that there is a clear physiological difference between the way the brains of gay people process sensory inputs and those of straight or even bi people. It has been found through brain imaging that gay men process smells completely differently to straight men and that the patterns observed are far closer to those seen in straight women.

Our understanding of genetics have changed in recent years to accept the possibility of environmental factors impacting upon the expression of certain genes and this combined with the known fact that some rats are born gay during periods of over population suggest a clear and obvious evolutionary reason for a gayness to exist. If one views evolution through the selfish gene hypothesis one can see that it isn't just a case of passing on your own genes but sometimes it is more advantageous to assist a close relative to pass on theirs. If resources were becoming scarce it would be advantageous to have some of the current generation attracted to their own gender and therefore unable to procreate - prior to modern technology existing or through taking part in an act they find repulsive (straight sex). This would avoid too much demand for resources in the next generation.

It is entirely possible that we all possess a gay gene and that it is often suppressed to some degree. Gay and bisexual people may be born without the ability to suppress this or may only have limited suppression abilities.

Other studies have clearly shown that homosexuality is, however repressed by social norms, clearly visible in behaviors and preferences from the earliest ages of sexual awakening in children.

Or you could prefer to believe that an all loving God chooses to punish some people and make them live a life suppressing their true selves in order to wash away ancient sins that the death of Christ was supposed to have absolved us of already. Some contributors here find that to be an odd way to view a loving God and therefore believe that some people are just born gay and God loves us all. But then some others believe that Christ's death is only for those who accept Him to be their personal savior and take over their lives - thus giving the ability to resist sin. Ultimately, we all have to learn to find our own path and accept ourselves.

Why do people roleplay other people?

Like in roleplay games? Well sometimes when things have a large fanbase that people get into they think up additions to the original story or they don't like how somethings turned out therefore they'd like to change it. So what better way to do that than create a new character or take on the characteristics of an existing character and have them act the way you want them to?

It sounds geeky but it's very good to help boost up the ability to write stories and keeps you thinking. Not only that but it keeps you doing something.
