One of the sexiest women in the world.

Very cool. Ms. Lacewell really gets to the kernal of race and gender relations we are experiencing now in America. I'm a HUGE fan.

@abdulwalee The Abstinence only thing doesnt work. It doesnt address the girls who get pregnant. You can "teach" someone all day, whether they listen is their constitutional right. Its legal to get pregnant out of wedlock, its legal to have choices. Get rid of shame is the overall story. Ish happens, people have been getting pregnant since the dawn of man, and have exercised birth control/abortions as well. Marriage is a social/economic contract and can be viewed independent of kids.

@Ob5erV3r #1 your a dumbass for even asking for that on youtube!! #2 I guess I'm just as bad as you because I keep responding to this old point!  Bottom line is Your standards are irrelavent when they conflict with the way things ACTUALLY function in REAL LIFE. Because that conflict will eventually cause your standards to become obsolete and useless. Who and what has authority to make something or someone "CREDIBLE" in your view?

[Ob5erV3r]

@supermike2164 However, in most Universities, when an presentation is made, be it written or verbal and you (the contributor) are not a "Recognized authority" you must provide what is called a "References", OR "Works Cited" page. This because if the contributor wants to be taken serious they must provide its audience some assurance that what they are saying is credible...So then, what published work do you have on the topic of "Universal Survival". I'd like to read it...lol (sike).

[supermike2164]

Respond to this video... Universal survival function is the idea that everything that exist living or otherwise has to complete similar functions in order to maintain its level of existence. for example if I want to fly I need to develop something that will function as a counter to gravity and give me control it doesn't matter if I am a bug, a bird, a human.

[supermike2164]

@Ob5erV3r WOW I made these comments over 8 months ago and I still feel the same way about this attractive idiot! Your arguments to support her are very weak and illogical. just because someone has speaking engagements doesn't mean their points are functional. Just because a person may be a homeless bum on the streets who likes to engage in a debate or two at the library computer doesn't that person's viewpoint or suggestion meaningless.

[Ob5erV3r]

@supermike2164 (continued) Please tell me you are someone considered an authority on diagnosing clinical "crazy" -- a physician...maybe? How is it a crazy lady has more speaking engagements than "supermike2164"? So yes, please when you are someone worth listening to...explain "Universal survival function."

[Ob5erV3r]

@supermike2164 Have you published work in this area? Why exactly are you an authority on this topic? Please tell me you aren't just some guy on a PC making comments about an accomplished professor of a prestigious university?
