Why... (not much of a question)?

Why is it that people feel it necessary to ask questions such as picking a screen name, which celebrity you'd rather have sex with or other random questions like am i too old to sleep with a 13 year old. Some peole are really just sick and crazy and this is the PARENTING section. Ask the questions that matter like "is {insert topic} normal with my 10 month old" etc.

I dont care what type of screen name you pick or if your image is "HOT". Get on with it people. I had to go thru like 5 pages of questions just to find a handfull of actual parenting questions.

Sry VENTING!!!

    I totally agree with you - it is very annoying. But you have to remember that Yahoo Answers is open to anybody and everybody - that means all those immature, sickos, and weird people are included in the "everybody" part. So it happens that we get stupid and vomit-inducing questions (as well as answers) from those people. It is sad and pathetic that the only way those kind of people can get attention is to post a mind-numbing question (or answer) on the internet - they don't realize that for the most part they remain anonymous, or that we don't care who they are, so even if they do get the attention they seek - so what? they're just another *name* that we most likely won't remember after half a second.

    So to all those immature people out there - GROW UP! Try going outside for once and take a break from formulating the stupidest questions. We want REAL questions and REAL answers from REAL people here in Yahoo Answers.

    Some people enjoy asking questions just to enrage and imflame others, especially with an insertion into an improper catagory.

    I read a question about roommates placed in the ROYALTY section.

    Some people are just jerks.

    I agree with you 100%. There are lots of other sections to pick from.... If you have any sense at all, you know that those types of questions don't belong in the pregnancy and parenting section!

    I understand what you are saying and sometimes feel that way too, but then remind myself that the world is filled with all sorts of people and I can not judge that, or them. Just skip by them and do things that you feel are right and sincere, without trying to change others.

    Hope this helps!

    I like venting!! But sometimes it takes a stupid question to get to the real truth. Some of the question you have to laugh, what was they thinking.... So the laughing makes it all good... lol

    I agree also i think some of it is that children seem to have nothing better to do than post these questions
