That's a surprising outcome, I will be doing this one as well. Can't wait to see what comes out. I just don't know about the height questions I don't know about feet and inches. We measure in meters and cm.

[kudagirl.livejournal.com]

I wasn't surprised by my answers. Some of the points in certain countries did seem odd. The selections for America were a bit strange to me. I guess the rest of the world sees Americans as prejudice.

I don't hate foreigners or non-Christians. I believe in pro-choice. I want a woman to have the choice that works in her situation. I don't think outsiders have the right to chose for others. The death penalty is something that isn't easy to say yay or nay.

[debris4spike]

Yes, as I read through this (and I'll be doing it soon) I thought there were one or two which were hard to actually say yes/no to.

[kudagirl.livejournal.com]

Yes, there were a few which were hard to answer. Some were just odd.

In my reply to strikske, I spoke about abortion. Our state has a vote coming up about abortion. They want to require a woman to have a sonogram and even listen to the heartbeat. It might require this 24 hours before having an abortion. Deciding to have an abortion is difficult. They claim it is to ensure that the women who are about to have an abortion are more fully informed. I think it is to try to make them feel guilty and not have an abortion. I'm not pro-abortion. I'm pro-choice. I've seen how lives have been destroyed by back alley abortions.

[debris4spike]

Yes, abortion is pro-choice ... especially as the result of rape, or during long-term illness ... those choices must be even harder to make, and with "poor" professional help the situation must become that much worse.

I knew girls who had to slip off to another country or get an illegal abortion. Neither were good choices. Heck, I couldn't get birth control from my doctor till after I got married. My mom went with me and spoke to him. He refused to give it to me till after we got married. Stupid.
