  • Who are they?

    I inadvertently selected a TV channel the other day which at every commercial break were showing a trailer for a programme which involved a large-busted heavily pregnant female dressed in pink and a rather effeminate "male" person accompanying her. Who are they and what have they achieved to have such coverage on television?

  • Teachers do you know, or care, that your pupils are not doing their homework?

    If you switch your attention to the "homework help" section of this site you will no doubt recognise some of the work set by you for your students to do on their own at home. By asking Yahoo Answerers to help them are they "playing the game" or do you care?

  • What is wrong with her?

    For several weeks my wife has been saying "I must get a new scrubbing brush next time I go to the shops", but has always forgotten. This morning my ten-year old son gave her one for Mother's Day all wrapped up in nice wrapping paper. She has gone wild and will not speak to any of us. What is wrong with her?

  • Why do you think that there is someone from Yahoo reading these questions and answers?

    And having read them dishing out violation notices? Have you done the math? It would take thousands of staff working for thousands of hours. The violation system is automatic after an abuse report is made. (That little flag thingy) Occasionally a mediator may look by but not often. Comment please.
